    I thought it would be nice to have a post mortem topic on gg allin.
    GG brought danger back to punk rock, all the while making everybody
    laugh while he defecated and rolled around in it, smashed his head with
    a microphone and bottles, did his shows naked, cut himself with razors
    on stage, threw up on the audience, and every thing else that he did to
    forever remain in our hearts.
    
    GG overdosed on heroin July 1993, and hardly anybody payed attention. 
    He never got the credit he deserved for having the originality to
    perform in the capacity he did.

    Yeah, sounds like a real winner.
1128.3CSLALL::SECURITYMADHATTAMon Feb 26 1996 19:225
    I have a couple of his videos if you want to see him in action.  I only
    regret that his untimely death occurred before you could meet him or
    see him live.

    I think I heard about this guy, I remember seeing something on TV and
    it showed him all bloody and gross lookin'.
    
    I might be interested in seeing this vid though.
1128.5CSLALL::SECURITYMADHATTAMon Feb 26 1996 20:045
    Yes, he usually was bloody and always was gross looking. The titles to
    his songs can't be put in here for the most part, except stuff like 
    "die when you die" and "kill the children, save the food."

    Well, I'm not much into that scene, but the video would be an
    interesting source of entertainment for me and my weird, wacky friends.
1128.7CSLALL::SECURITYMADHATTAMon Feb 26 1996 20:183
    It's one of those things you have to see to understand. I've seen the
    vids so many times that now I just like to show 'em to people and watch
    their faces every time he does something messed up.

    Similar face, only not sideways.

         Hey, this is great. This conference is no longer lame. The Soapbox
    moderator is going to blame about half those other notes on me,
    however, since I'm the one that really got this discussion going.

    Hahaha.  You got the GG Allen discussion going?  
    
    I don't know about you, E_.
