I was just in Amsterdam. The coffee (real coffee) shop I was in had a poster of Gibby Haynes who was coming to town soon. Long way from Texas. GH’s dad was Mr. Peppermint, a local icon.

this is my favorite factoid! I watched his show religiously, even though it occasionally gave me nightmares.

I have a classic 70’s picture of him with my sister at a Texas Power & Light Christmas party. It was strange knowing Mr Peppermint first then learning of the Butthole Surfers.

That is amazing. That is a long way from Texas. Real coffee too you say..... Is he touring a full band?

They just had his name. Need to see if I took a picture. It was such a surprise.
