Anyone ever see this asshole before? I had never heard of him, but was talking to my stepdad since he's a fan of some punk music, and he went to see this guy in the early 90s.
On stage he would injure himself, punch random people in the audience, smash bottles in their faces, abuse and make out with random women, eat his own shit (and others sometimes) and smear it on his body.
And his last day alive was filmed.

Watched his movie/documentary. Seemed like a real asshole. Shitting everywhere and eating it. Too far-fetched.

Attention-seeker gets attention. Seeks more.

He's sort of an insane punk icon.... little too far out there for me. Not really about music or message... pushing boundaries with no reason or rationale. At least from what I know.

I was just reading about him in wikipedia. Really bazaar. Sounds like his dad was an idiot too.
Allin was born Jesus Christ Allin at Weeks Memorial Hospital in Lancaster, New Hampshire, the younger of two sons to Merle Colby Allin, Sr. and Arleta Gunther.[3] He was given this name because his father told his wife that Jesus Christ himself had visited him, and told him that his newborn son would be a great man in the vein of the Messiah.[3][6]
His older brother, Merle Colby Allin, Jr., was unable to pronounce "Jesus" properly and kept calling him "Jeje", which became "GG". The family lived in a log cabin with no water or electricity in northern New Hampshire. Allin's father, who forbade all conversation in the home after dark, was an unstable and antisocial man, though GG himself denied that this caused any of his later personal troubles. At age 12, Allin contracted Lyme disease and is thought to have never fully recovered from the effects of having the disease at such a young age.
- I think his father got antichrist mixed up with Jesus Christali

Not cleanest nor the coolest, but he was unique. I cant diss.
Nowadays,every so called rock star, is a pussy compared to him.

being the most antisocial white trash scum isn‘t particulary thrilling or revolutionary or compelling. "bring the danger back in rock’n’roll"? doesn‘t work by being just a turd on legs...
- You ever read about what's happened to him and audience members at his shows? It actually was dangerous.CygnusZero4
- I‘ve read some articles about him back in college – it/he was dangerous, but just in a plain physical sensepressplay
- throbbing gristle for example had a performative approach that blew peoples minds – that‘s dangerouspressplay
- If I go to a show and there is a chance Ill get some broken bones or stabbed, then thats dangerous.CygnusZero4

He was a real scum-fuck outlaw (as he called himself). Listened to his stuff back in college. His early stuff with the Jabbers was quite a bit more poppy, and not near as crazy.

The thing that struck me as crazy, is that John Wayne Gacy said he was nuts.
- didn't he also say something like, gg is a good kid, but smells like shit.johnny_wobble
- not gonna watch hated again to see.johnny_wobble

There's a video of his wake/funeral on youtube. Never seen anything like it. His brother would not allow the funeral home to work on the body, to make it presentable, so it's all discolored and bloated in the casket. Still has the blood and shit on him in the video I posted above on the last day of his life.
Not only that, but the people at the wake were like posing him, moving his arms around, putting drugs in his mouth, a bottle of alcohol in there with him. So these idiots were actually celebrating the things that killed him. Not the brightest bunch in the world. Maybe that's what GG wanted, I think he even mentions it in a song, but still, cant even let them clean his ass up?
- Love the part where his brother poses for a picture of him holding his dead brothers crotch.CygnusZero4

This all totally disgusting. Not even that picture of hundreds of bodies washed up on shore after the 2004 Tsunami makes me as uncomfortable as this asshole does.

I hope this guy's name was influenced from playing Starcraft
