Shouldn’t pity GG. He lived fast and hard, did what he wanted. To him all of us are pitiful because we have to wake up in the morning to go to work.

I pity the two brothers and their teenage mother who were put through hell at the hands of a psychotic, abusive religious fanatic.

@swampdonkey4919 he really wasn't religious, don't blame religion. He was just a typical horrible alcoholic father. The guy never went to church ⛪️, his abuse to his family wasn't over the catholic religion

On his early records, he was NOT credited as Kevin M. Allin, but as GG Allin - except for his drumming, where he was credited as Kevin Allin to obscure the fact that it was GG playing drums. Songwriter singer was always GG Allin, by no other name. The band was GG Allin & The Jabbers, not just The Jabbers.

I saw GG Allin in '93. When the shock wore off it was just sad. Where I saw it had a balcony so his bodily fluids never reached me. I left after 10 minutes or so. Live Fast, Die Fast is my favorite GG song and it is also from his first record with The Jabbers.

He did a lot of the same stuff with the jabbers before all the pooping: flipped tables, attacked audience members, rolled around on the floor, and wrecked the club--which was why the jabbers broke up.

31:00 No punkrock came about, w/ the Ramones particularly to reignite rockNroll; When rockNroll was @ its apex in 1965 the music was @ such a pinnacle that'd never be duplicated. 12 years later when the Ramones put out Leave Home & Rocket to russia rockNroll was brought back to that era that Brian Wilson & Phil Spector epitomized. There were few moments in later years where it got close; in '82/83 & then in the mid-90s w/ the Queers & Travoltas. You can call all that opinion but the music speaks for itself. 🎶🇺🇲👌🏻

#1 Kevin was a normal dude, GG was his onstage persona. #2 Never undermine his output- his records w/ the Jabbers, Scumfucs, Aids brigade & Murder Junkies was solid punk-rockNroll. & #3 He was Never a junkie, he was an alcoholic. 💯 🇺🇲

GG had several sides and some of those sides came out when drinking and so on.. Many never go beneath the surface to acknowledge ther man beneath the shock and myth, or give music a serious listen (he had a lot of good tunes/records).. Most assume GG was a junkie, when in reality he was an alcoholic, though he did use/abuse whatever came his way.. I've had a number of conversations with people that knew GG, knew he had two sides and saw both the good and bad. There was definitely a public GG and a private GG and in no way am I stating GG had an act, just that he may have been more extreme (in ways) during a performance as the stage was his vehicle.. GG states in his own words why he did what he did and was what he was...

Because he's interviewing the guy who created the graphic novel,, that's why.. We already have dozens of interviews with Merle telling the same story over amd over again. This is more about what inspired the comic artist to create his book. I wish I knew about the graphic novel before it sold out, it sounds interesting. Now it's out of print and can go for as much as $500.
