1
00:00:14,133 --> 00:00:17,367
(energetic drum music)

2
00:00:22,233 --> 00:00:24,533
- I first went to see GG
Allin and his band perform

3
00:00:24,533 --> 00:00:28,133
at the Lizmar Lounge in New
York City sometime in 1988.

4
00:00:28,133 --> 00:00:30,567
The show began and ended with
GG stumbling down the stairs

5
00:00:30,567 --> 00:00:32,233
leading to the stage.

6
00:00:32,233 --> 00:00:33,433
He had done too much heroin

7
00:00:33,433 --> 00:00:34,833
and couldn't go
through with the show.

8
00:00:34,833 --> 00:00:36,400
But his fans managed to
get their money's worth

9
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:37,633
by repeatedly kicking him

10
00:00:37,633 --> 00:00:40,567
and breaking bottles
over his head.

11
00:00:40,567 --> 00:00:42,300
When I left the club
he was still out cold

12
00:00:42,300 --> 00:00:44,700
by the foot of the stairs.

13
00:00:44,700 --> 00:00:46,400
After that GG spent
a few years in jail

14
00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:49,167
for assaulting a young
woman in Michigan.

15
00:00:49,167 --> 00:00:51,800
It was then that I met Merle,
GG's brother and bass player,

16
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,200
and told him of my idea
to do a documentary on GG.

17
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:56,733
He got me touch with GG,

18
00:00:56,733 --> 00:00:58,567
who by now had completed
two years of his sentence,

19
00:00:58,567 --> 00:01:00,900
and was on parole in Michigan.

20
00:01:00,900 --> 00:01:02,667
He liked the idea, and
offered to skip parole

21
00:01:02,667 --> 00:01:05,933
and head for New York
to kick off a US tour.

22
00:01:05,933 --> 00:01:07,300
I sent him a one-way bus ticket,

23
00:01:07,300 --> 00:01:09,633
and he arrived the next day.

24
00:01:16,433 --> 00:01:20,667
- Grab onto your bowels,
you're about to meet your God.

25
00:01:20,667 --> 00:01:23,100
You'll slide back, don't you
know what you're gonna get

26
00:01:23,100 --> 00:01:25,500
during the next
40 minutes or so.

27
00:01:25,500 --> 00:01:28,400
So get down on your knees.

28
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:29,967
No, no, wait for that.

29
00:01:29,967 --> 00:01:32,733
Right now, you're gonna
hear the only true

30
00:01:32,733 --> 00:01:36,400
rock and roller left
in the world, GG Allin.

31
00:01:53,367 --> 00:01:56,067
* The faggots with
AIDS are all gonna fry

32
00:01:56,067 --> 00:01:59,100
* You stuck it up an ass
tonight now we're gonna die

33
00:01:59,100 --> 00:02:02,067
* Die when you die when
you die you're gonna die

34
00:02:02,067 --> 00:02:05,300
- We the jury, find the
defendant, Kevin Michael Allin,

35
00:02:05,300 --> 00:02:08,667
guilty of disorderly conduct
as charged in the complaint.

36
00:02:08,667 --> 00:02:11,467
- With the narrow-minded
hypocritical puppets in society

37
00:02:11,467 --> 00:02:14,733
trying to kill rock and
roll, and they can't do it.

38
00:02:14,733 --> 00:02:17,700
* The KKK took them
niggers out to die

39
00:02:17,700 --> 00:02:20,567
* When the black meat's
burnin' I hope he's gonna die

40
00:02:20,567 --> 00:02:24,733
* Die when you die when
you die you're gonna die

41
00:02:25,933 --> 00:02:29,833
* Die when you die when
you die you're gonna die

42
00:02:36,633 --> 00:02:40,667
* I talked to my bitch
but she was a guy

43
00:02:40,667 --> 00:02:41,900
- (muffled) It's nothing new.

44
00:02:41,900 --> 00:02:43,467
He's done the same
thing over and over,

45
00:02:43,467 --> 00:02:45,967
with 10 or 15 different bands.

46
00:02:46,867 --> 00:02:49,067
Once, he even took a microphone

47
00:02:49,067 --> 00:02:52,133
and slammed it into
his clenched mouth,

48
00:02:52,133 --> 00:02:54,633
breaking six of his own teeth.

49
00:02:58,333 --> 00:03:01,067
* You got cancer
so go fuckin' die

50
00:03:01,067 --> 00:03:03,933
* If you got AIDS spread it
around and take some lives

51
00:03:03,933 --> 00:03:08,100
* Die when you die when
you die you're gonna die

52
00:03:09,300 --> 00:03:13,233
* Die when you die when
you die you're gonna die

53
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:16,633
- Unk.

54
00:03:19,967 --> 00:03:21,700
Yeah, my name's Unk.

55
00:03:21,700 --> 00:03:23,700
What I like about GG is,

56
00:03:24,900 --> 00:03:27,300
when I first discovered him,

57
00:03:27,300 --> 00:03:29,867
it was a review of this video.

58
00:03:29,867 --> 00:03:32,233
It said, watch GG stick
a bottle in his ass.

59
00:03:32,233 --> 00:03:34,067
Watch GG beat up
his band members.

60
00:03:34,067 --> 00:03:36,067
Watch GG take a shit
and roll in glass.

61
00:03:36,067 --> 00:03:37,400
I'm like, yeah this guy's cool.

62
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:38,900
This is punk rock.

63
00:03:41,100 --> 00:03:43,800
So, I went and checked
out a bunch of GG's stuff.

64
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,633
- You know it depends on
the person he's around,

65
00:03:45,633 --> 00:03:49,100
and what's going
through his mind.

66
00:03:49,100 --> 00:03:50,700
He can be normal one minute,

67
00:03:50,700 --> 00:03:54,867
and he can turn on you like
an animal in the next minute.

68
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,767
I think this tour
will probably be,

69
00:04:10,767 --> 00:04:13,400
the craziest tour yet.

70
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,967
It's just gonna be a total war.

71
00:04:17,900 --> 00:04:18,733
Anything goes,

72
00:04:18,733 --> 00:04:20,900
which pretty much

73
00:04:20,900 --> 00:04:22,667
can sum up any GG tour.

74
00:04:22,667 --> 00:04:24,467
You never really know
what's gonna happen,

75
00:04:24,467 --> 00:04:27,267
but you know you've
gotta be prepared,

76
00:04:27,267 --> 00:04:28,433
for the worst.

77
00:04:29,667 --> 00:04:32,567
- In your future,
what about plans?

78
00:04:33,833 --> 00:04:36,600
- Stay one step
ahead of the law.

79
00:04:37,767 --> 00:04:39,200
I don't know, I don't
think about the future.

80
00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:40,733
I think about what's
happenin' today, I don't.

81
00:04:40,733 --> 00:04:41,933
Fuck tomorrow.

82
00:04:41,933 --> 00:04:43,867
I don't know, it's
really not important.

83
00:04:43,867 --> 00:04:47,700
As long as I don't
get arrested today.

84
00:04:47,700 --> 00:04:48,833
Whatever, just fuck it.

85
00:04:48,833 --> 00:04:50,067
Whatever's happenin' today

86
00:04:50,067 --> 00:04:51,267
is the only thing
that really matters.

87
00:04:51,267 --> 00:04:54,333
Tomorrow, we'll get
there when we get there.

88
00:04:54,333 --> 00:04:56,600
- As far as the whole tour.

89
00:04:57,533 --> 00:04:59,800
Finishing the whole tour is,

90
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,833
you never plan on
going on the road.

91
00:05:01,833 --> 00:05:05,867
You never plan on
finishing the whole tour.

92
00:05:05,867 --> 00:05:06,933
- Why's that?

93
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:08,633
- Usually,

94
00:05:10,067 --> 00:05:12,200
there's two reasons.

95
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,367
Prison -- or the hospital.

96
00:05:32,467 --> 00:05:34,900
(punk music)

97
00:05:58,067 --> 00:05:59,700
The current lineup

98
00:05:59,700 --> 00:06:02,433
for GG Allin and the
Murder Junkies is,

99
00:06:02,433 --> 00:06:03,600
of course, GG,

100
00:06:04,500 --> 00:06:05,767
myself on bass,

101
00:06:07,367 --> 00:06:09,100
Bill Weber on guitar,

102
00:06:10,833 --> 00:06:12,100
and vocals, and

103
00:06:13,233 --> 00:06:14,667
Dino is on drums.

104
00:06:17,467 --> 00:06:21,067
Dino's the perfect drummer
for this band because,

105
00:06:21,067 --> 00:06:22,467
he's just a

106
00:06:22,467 --> 00:06:25,167
total, hard-hitting psycho.

107
00:06:25,167 --> 00:06:27,067
You know, doesn't
care about anything

108
00:06:27,067 --> 00:06:29,233
but just playing his drums.

109
00:06:31,467 --> 00:06:34,200
He doesn't really
know what's goin' on.

110
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,200
He's just there,

111
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:36,767
he keeps the beat,

112
00:06:36,767 --> 00:06:38,067
he's a pounder,

113
00:06:38,067 --> 00:06:39,967
and he's fuckin' psycho.

114
00:06:39,967 --> 00:06:42,200
He's perfect for the band.

115
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,567
- Dino, tell me
something about yourself.

116
00:06:45,567 --> 00:06:47,300
What are you like?

117
00:06:47,300 --> 00:06:49,200
- What am I like?

118
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,233
Why, I'm just peace and love,

119
00:06:51,233 --> 00:06:53,633
in the midst of all violence.

120
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,300
And I am free,
legal, and innocent.

121
00:07:00,267 --> 00:07:03,700
Squid, Theo, Gina, Sindi, Becky,

122
00:07:03,700 --> 00:07:05,867
Lunachicks are number one.

123
00:07:07,700 --> 00:07:08,533
GG Rock,

124
00:07:09,867 --> 00:07:12,700
Led Zeppelin, Jimi
Hendrix, Brook.

125
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,367
- Dino, the naked drummer.

126
00:07:18,467 --> 00:07:19,567
Dino believes

127
00:07:20,767 --> 00:07:22,100
that he's immortal.

128
00:07:22,100 --> 00:07:24,800
He believes he's
free of all law.

129
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:25,967
And he believes he's

130
00:07:25,967 --> 00:07:28,800
telepathically connected
to the Lunachicks.

131
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,067
And he believes
that they love him.

132
00:07:32,067 --> 00:07:32,867
And Dino's

133
00:07:34,233 --> 00:07:37,133
done time for exposing
himself to people.

134
00:07:37,133 --> 00:07:38,967
- What about that?

135
00:07:38,967 --> 00:07:42,800
- Dino exposed his
schwing to a little girl,

136
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,733
and did time,

137
00:07:44,733 --> 00:07:46,400
and later when asked about it,

138
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,167
said, ah, I was
just teasin' her.

139
00:07:54,967 --> 00:07:56,767
- I don't always play naked.

140
00:07:56,767 --> 00:08:00,367
Sometimes I do it,
or most of the time.

141
00:08:00,367 --> 00:08:02,900
There are physical
reasons for it.

142
00:08:02,900 --> 00:08:03,800
Because of,

143
00:08:05,433 --> 00:08:07,500
if I wear clothing,

144
00:08:07,500 --> 00:08:08,733
I play very heavily,

145
00:08:08,733 --> 00:08:12,233
and I sit very hard on
the drum seat and I,

146
00:08:12,233 --> 00:08:13,633
irritate my skin,

147
00:08:15,367 --> 00:08:17,467
severely sometimes and it

148
00:08:17,467 --> 00:08:19,300
really hurts and
if I sit on plastic

149
00:08:19,300 --> 00:08:21,700
or on a good vinyl seat,

150
00:08:21,700 --> 00:08:24,467
with nothing underneath,
I don't get hurt.

151
00:08:24,467 --> 00:08:27,167
That's basically
the main reason.

152
00:08:27,167 --> 00:08:28,400
Then there's also the fact

153
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,567
that it's a thrill
to the audience.

154
00:08:30,567 --> 00:08:32,600
And it is often requested,

155
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,400
because I have done it, and
I am known to play naked,

156
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,067
so when people see me
they ask me to play naked,

157
00:08:37,067 --> 00:08:40,067
in the audience and
things like that.

158
00:08:43,767 --> 00:08:45,800
- The whole thing
was supposed to last

159
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:47,333
maybe a year or two.

160
00:08:47,333 --> 00:08:50,433
It was just something that
I wanted to get out of me.

161
00:08:50,433 --> 00:08:54,400
And as the thing
escalated and went on,

162
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,533
I realized that there
was just so much more

163
00:08:56,533 --> 00:08:58,400
that I had to do.

164
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,467
And the more I did, the
more I wanted to do.

165
00:09:02,467 --> 00:09:03,667
I just said, fuck it.

166
00:09:03,667 --> 00:09:06,533
I'm gonna just take
over the world.

167
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,867
So at that point, I had
begun to lose band members,

168
00:09:12,867 --> 00:09:17,567
because I just outgrew everybody
that I ever played with.

169
00:09:17,567 --> 00:09:21,900
Everybody, it got to the
point where I was just,

170
00:09:21,900 --> 00:09:26,133
uncontrollable, and
the Jabbers dissolved,

171
00:09:26,133 --> 00:09:27,433
because they
couldn't control me,

172
00:09:27,433 --> 00:09:31,433
no matter what I said, I
do what I wanted to do.

173
00:09:35,067 --> 00:09:36,533
- So, you toured with the band.

174
00:09:36,533 --> 00:09:37,800
What made you decide

175
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,800
to quit GG Allin and
the Murder Junkies?

176
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,933
- Well, the band
is going nowhere.

177
00:09:42,933 --> 00:09:45,233
I don't believe in GG anymore.

178
00:09:45,233 --> 00:09:46,533
I don't believe in
what he's doing.

179
00:09:46,533 --> 00:09:49,567
I don't think he's
doing anything,

180
00:09:49,567 --> 00:09:52,067
except like just doing shows.

181
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:57,133
Occasionally, something
interesting will happen.

182
00:09:57,133 --> 00:09:58,733
On a whole, the band,

183
00:09:58,733 --> 00:10:01,300
it was more or less boring.

184
00:10:01,300 --> 00:10:04,233
- It's been said that beauty
is in the eye of the beholder,

185
00:10:04,233 --> 00:10:06,000
and nowhere is that more true

186
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,400
than in my studio today.

187
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,067
Let's meet these artists now,

188
00:10:10,067 --> 00:10:12,267
and we'll also meet
those who feel their work

189
00:10:12,267 --> 00:10:14,000
is nothing but smut.

190
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,600
This is GG Allin.

191
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,300
GG is a rock and roller

192
00:10:17,300 --> 00:10:21,467
who makes the most wild punk
groups pale in comparison.

193
00:10:21,467 --> 00:10:23,167
I don't know if
you'll recall this,

194
00:10:23,167 --> 00:10:25,467
but he made the news
recently, GG did,

195
00:10:25,467 --> 00:10:28,600
when it was revealed
that he relieved himself

196
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:29,833
on stage, live.

197
00:10:31,333 --> 00:10:34,233
Why GG, did you feel a need to

198
00:10:34,233 --> 00:10:36,800
to defecate in front
of a live audience?

199
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,867
- Well, my body is the
rock and roll temple.

200
00:10:39,867 --> 00:10:43,367
And my flesh, blood,
and body fluids,

201
00:10:43,367 --> 00:10:45,033
are a communion to the people,

202
00:10:45,033 --> 00:10:46,133
whether they like it or not.

203
00:10:46,133 --> 00:10:48,633
I'm not out to please anybody.

204
00:10:48,633 --> 00:10:51,167
My rock and roll is more

205
00:10:51,167 --> 00:10:53,433
not to entertain,
but to annihilate.

206
00:10:53,433 --> 00:10:56,033
I'm trying to bring danger
back into rock and roll.

207
00:10:56,033 --> 00:10:58,600
And there are no
limits, and no laws.

208
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,633
And I'll break down every
barrier put in front of me,

209
00:11:00,633 --> 00:11:02,300
until the day I die.

210
00:11:03,333 --> 00:11:04,533
(cheers)

211
00:11:04,533 --> 00:11:06,467
- The applause, in
case you are curious,

212
00:11:06,467 --> 00:11:08,167
is coming from a

213
00:11:08,167 --> 00:11:11,967
GG Allin fan club there
in the first two rows.

214
00:11:11,967 --> 00:11:14,600
Notice, the cool mustache
on the third guy in,

215
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:15,433
on the first row.

216
00:11:15,433 --> 00:11:16,267
You get a shot of him?

217
00:11:16,267 --> 00:11:17,100
- Merle.

218
00:11:17,100 --> 00:11:18,067
- What's his name?

219
00:11:18,067 --> 00:11:19,233
- That's my brother, Merle.

220
00:11:19,233 --> 00:11:20,067
He's my bass player
for the Murder Junkies.

221
00:11:20,067 --> 00:11:21,300
- Oh is it? Alright.

222
00:11:21,300 --> 00:11:22,500
Great, I love that
mustache is really

223
00:11:22,500 --> 00:11:24,400
a happening, happening.

224
00:11:27,233 --> 00:11:28,533
- About a week before
the first show,

225
00:11:28,533 --> 00:11:30,400
I found myself driving
in a rental van,

226
00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,067
with GG, Merle, and the
band's newest addition,

227
00:11:33,067 --> 00:11:34,267
Dee Dee Ramone.

228
00:11:35,667 --> 00:11:40,067
- Dee Dee, what made you decide
to join the Murder Junkies?

229
00:11:40,067 --> 00:11:41,067
- So that's the name?

230
00:11:41,067 --> 00:11:42,567
I didn't know that was the name.

231
00:11:42,567 --> 00:11:45,500
I thought it was
the GG Allin band.

232
00:11:48,867 --> 00:11:51,600
I joined it 'cause I
wanted to have some fun,

233
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:52,867
and play a little.

234
00:11:52,867 --> 00:11:55,567
And not have any responsibility.

235
00:11:55,567 --> 00:11:56,567
- We had been drinking heavily,

236
00:11:56,567 --> 00:11:58,100
and as we drove down 9th Avenue,

237
00:11:58,100 --> 00:11:59,567
GG opened up the
van door and began

238
00:11:59,567 --> 00:12:02,133
throwing beer bottles
at some hookers.

239
00:12:02,133 --> 00:12:04,267
I wasn't worried because I
knew at 30 miles an hour,

240
00:12:04,267 --> 00:12:06,167
he was too drunk
to hit anything,

241
00:12:06,167 --> 00:12:08,500
let alone a prostitute.

242
00:12:08,500 --> 00:12:10,100
One week later, Dee
Dee quit the band,

243
00:12:10,100 --> 00:12:14,367
claiming it had nothing
to do with that incident.

244
00:12:14,367 --> 00:12:16,467
That night we decided to
set up a solo performance

245
00:12:16,467 --> 00:12:18,933
for GG at New York University.

246
00:12:18,933 --> 00:12:20,833
I got the okay from
university officials,

247
00:12:20,833 --> 00:12:22,267
and that Thursday,
we set up to film

248
00:12:22,267 --> 00:12:25,067
at the Loeb Student Center.

249
00:12:25,067 --> 00:12:28,300
- We're gonna play
with a banana today.

250
00:12:38,633 --> 00:12:41,400
The name of the
song's Dead Fuck.

251
00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:42,233
Watch.

252
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,367
Are you hungry?

253
00:13:01,367 --> 00:13:03,633
(laughter)

254
00:13:09,833 --> 00:13:11,067
Okay, now.

255
00:13:11,067 --> 00:13:12,400
Everybody all get naked.

256
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:16,367
Everybody get their,
powerful clothing.

257
00:13:16,367 --> 00:13:18,067
Worn powerful clothing.

258
00:13:18,067 --> 00:13:19,400
Anything.

259
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,467
You got your head
up here in a cloud.

260
00:13:23,533 --> 00:13:25,067
More power.

261
00:13:25,067 --> 00:13:27,167
You can have the leftovers.

262
00:13:27,167 --> 00:13:29,767
Worn powerful clothing.

263
00:13:29,767 --> 00:13:31,067
They're leaving.

264
00:13:31,067 --> 00:13:34,133
You can tell who the
fuckin' sissies are.

265
00:13:35,067 --> 00:13:36,833
Alright, no clothing.

266
00:13:42,500 --> 00:13:45,233
Give me some clothing, now.

267
00:13:45,233 --> 00:13:47,300
Or I'm out of here.

268
00:13:47,300 --> 00:13:48,800
Something up here.

269
00:13:53,900 --> 00:13:58,067
So I'll have a little
(muffled) pee (muffled).

270
00:14:01,733 --> 00:14:03,400
Don't all leave now.

271
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:05,567
Shit, you are.

272
00:14:06,767 --> 00:14:07,933
Talk about it.

273
00:14:10,500 --> 00:14:13,367
Come on, don't leave so soon.

274
00:14:13,367 --> 00:14:14,200
See ya.

275
00:14:20,067 --> 00:14:23,733
(confused yelling)

276
00:14:23,733 --> 00:14:24,967
- Get him fucking out.

277
00:14:24,967 --> 00:14:28,867
Shut that fucking
(muffled), now.

278
00:14:29,900 --> 00:14:32,500
* Fuck the law

279
00:14:33,667 --> 00:14:37,767
* Kill kill kill kill
them motherfucking asses

280
00:14:40,733 --> 00:14:43,933
* Fuck authority fuck authority

281
00:14:43,933 --> 00:14:48,167
* Kill the president
and seniority

282
00:14:48,167 --> 00:14:50,267
- I thought he was gonna cry.

283
00:14:50,267 --> 00:14:51,767
He was like smiling,
but I swear,

284
00:14:51,767 --> 00:14:54,767
I thought he was
gonna start crying.

285
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,800
(audience chanting)

286
00:15:02,267 --> 00:15:03,300
- Don't even start.

287
00:15:03,300 --> 00:15:04,933
Don't even think about it.

288
00:15:04,933 --> 00:15:08,433
(muffled) very serious.

289
00:15:08,433 --> 00:15:10,433
The filming is finished.

290
00:15:14,267 --> 00:15:18,433
- Definitely was whacky
when he was (muffled).

291
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:22,300
- GG Allin is God.

292
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:33,633
- I think,

293
00:15:35,733 --> 00:15:38,267
what pisses off people,

294
00:15:38,267 --> 00:15:40,633
authority figures, as
far as GG is concerned,

295
00:15:40,633 --> 00:15:42,067
is the fact that,

296
00:15:43,567 --> 00:15:46,933
he absolutely does
not give a fuck,

297
00:15:46,933 --> 00:15:47,933
about what they stand for.

298
00:15:47,933 --> 00:15:50,333
He hates what they stand for.

299
00:15:50,333 --> 00:15:52,500
Whether it's even
thought about or not,

300
00:15:52,500 --> 00:15:54,167
he just hates the fact
that they stand for

301
00:15:54,167 --> 00:15:57,767
what they indeed stand
for, that authority.

302
00:15:58,900 --> 00:16:01,533
He hates that more
than anything.

303
00:16:04,767 --> 00:16:08,100
And, that goes from
parents to teachers,

304
00:16:08,100 --> 00:16:09,767
and especially cops.

305
00:16:10,967 --> 00:16:14,267
- Merle, what do you
think made GG rebel?

306
00:16:15,100 --> 00:16:15,933
- I think

307
00:16:16,900 --> 00:16:18,767
just growing up,

308
00:16:18,767 --> 00:16:20,100
being different,

309
00:16:21,300 --> 00:16:24,067
and having everybody
laughing at him.

310
00:16:24,067 --> 00:16:28,600
And, you know, he didn't
really get along with anyone,

311
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,767
growing up, especially
through school.

312
00:16:34,067 --> 00:16:35,833
It's probably made him

313
00:16:36,767 --> 00:16:37,933
hate just about everyone.

314
00:16:37,933 --> 00:16:40,767
He pretty much
does hate everyone.

315
00:16:42,833 --> 00:16:44,100
I think he just basically,

316
00:16:44,100 --> 00:16:45,867
he started rebelling

317
00:16:45,867 --> 00:16:47,933
right from the beginning.

318
00:16:49,067 --> 00:16:51,500
As soon as he started
playing music,

319
00:16:51,500 --> 00:16:55,167
and started listening
to more obscure bands.

320
00:16:57,267 --> 00:17:01,967
He'd go to high school
wearing women's clothing.

321
00:17:01,967 --> 00:17:04,400
- I hate you motherfuckers.

322
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:07,133
I hate you motherfuckers.

323
00:17:07,133 --> 00:17:09,200
I hate you motherfuckers.

324
00:17:10,233 --> 00:17:12,300
I hate you motherfuckers.

325
00:17:13,333 --> 00:17:15,433
I hate you motherfuckers.

326
00:17:16,633 --> 00:17:18,733
I hate you motherfuckers.

327
00:17:20,633 --> 00:17:22,633
(drums)

328
00:17:26,233 --> 00:17:29,367
- Well, I mean we grew
up in a small town,

329
00:17:29,367 --> 00:17:32,200
that basically consisted of

330
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,767
farmers and rednecks and jocks.

331
00:17:35,933 --> 00:17:37,767
Nobody was into music.

332
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,800
- Well, my first
impressions, Allin.

333
00:17:44,633 --> 00:17:47,967
That he would be easy
to get along with.

334
00:17:49,833 --> 00:17:51,933
He didn't pose a problem,

335
00:17:53,733 --> 00:17:54,967
in the classroom.

336
00:17:54,967 --> 00:17:58,167
You know, by city
standards, I think,

337
00:17:58,167 --> 00:17:59,133
we're slow.

338
00:18:00,067 --> 00:18:02,433
Everything comes to this area,

339
00:18:03,767 --> 00:18:05,333
after it's been well worked over

340
00:18:05,333 --> 00:18:06,933
in the urban environment.

341
00:18:06,933 --> 00:18:09,433
And then it finally gets here.

342
00:18:11,533 --> 00:18:13,267
So you could say,

343
00:18:13,267 --> 00:18:14,900
in that respect,

344
00:18:14,900 --> 00:18:17,433
to a degree, we're
behind in fashion,

345
00:18:17,433 --> 00:18:18,767
and this sort of thing.

346
00:18:18,767 --> 00:18:22,800
And to an extent,
culture, lack culture.

347
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,067
- Can you play that?

348
00:18:25,067 --> 00:18:25,833
- This thing?

349
00:18:25,833 --> 00:18:27,067
- On the recorder.

350
00:18:27,067 --> 00:18:27,833
- Okay.

351
00:18:34,867 --> 00:18:37,700
(loud punk music)

352
00:18:59,900 --> 00:19:01,967
- Everybody in a city,
or in urban area's

353
00:19:01,967 --> 00:19:03,967
in everybody else's way.

354
00:19:05,700 --> 00:19:09,133
But here, there's
plenty of space.

355
00:19:09,133 --> 00:19:11,167
Nobody need be crowded.

356
00:19:11,167 --> 00:19:13,333
Physically or emotionally.

357
00:19:14,533 --> 00:19:17,600
- Do you think GG felt crowded?

358
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,533
- Yeah, I would say.

359
00:19:19,533 --> 00:19:22,300
And everybody
always suspicioned,

360
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,667
Allin, and others like,

361
00:19:25,667 --> 00:19:29,233
that were in that crew
were always users of drugs,

362
00:19:29,233 --> 00:19:31,067
users of drugs, and etc.

363
00:19:31,067 --> 00:19:33,300
But, not for sure.

364
00:19:33,300 --> 00:19:35,100
* I want to kill my parents

365
00:19:35,100 --> 00:19:36,767
* I want to take their life

366
00:19:36,767 --> 00:19:38,533
* I want to kill my brother

367
00:19:38,533 --> 00:19:40,367
* And kill my ex-wife

368
00:19:40,367 --> 00:19:42,267
* I want to kill the president

369
00:19:42,267 --> 00:19:43,733
* Kill the niggers too

370
00:19:43,733 --> 00:19:44,900
- I remember one night,

371
00:19:44,900 --> 00:19:46,333
it was like two in the morning,

372
00:19:46,333 --> 00:19:50,567
and we were stopped at
Dunkin' Donuts or something,

373
00:19:50,567 --> 00:19:52,100
and his brother Merle,

374
00:19:52,100 --> 00:19:55,567
slipped a hit of acid into
one of his Dunkin' munchies.

375
00:19:55,567 --> 00:19:57,133
And he never did drugs.

376
00:19:57,133 --> 00:19:59,767
Never smoked pot, or
drank, or anything.

377
00:19:59,767 --> 00:20:01,600
We were all
experimenting back then,

378
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:02,500
but he never did.

379
00:20:02,500 --> 00:20:03,933
- Merle's fault.

380
00:20:03,933 --> 00:20:05,433
- I was trying to goad him
into doing something like that,

381
00:20:05,433 --> 00:20:06,833
but never succeeded.

382
00:20:06,833 --> 00:20:08,867
And his brother
finally stuck it,

383
00:20:08,867 --> 00:20:12,500
a hit of acid in one
of those munchies.

384
00:20:12,500 --> 00:20:15,033
He did some strange
things that night.

385
00:20:15,033 --> 00:20:16,233
- Like?

386
00:20:16,233 --> 00:20:19,133
- Well, actually,
tear up an apartment,

387
00:20:20,033 --> 00:20:22,167
take all his clothes off,

388
00:20:22,167 --> 00:20:23,267
kicked the walls in,

389
00:20:23,267 --> 00:20:24,767
just went nuts.

390
00:20:24,767 --> 00:20:25,900
We tried to calm him down,

391
00:20:25,900 --> 00:20:27,233
and he was pesterin'
his brother,

392
00:20:27,233 --> 00:20:30,700
he was gonna try to
kill his brother Merle.

393
00:20:30,700 --> 00:20:32,200
- I can't imagine,

394
00:20:33,267 --> 00:20:35,700
liking to bleed like he does.

395
00:20:36,867 --> 00:20:39,467
Fuck, you know Leo, he's
standing over there.

396
00:20:39,467 --> 00:20:41,233
He's a butcher by trade,

397
00:20:41,233 --> 00:20:43,367
and I'm used to seeing
blood, you know what I mean?

398
00:20:43,367 --> 00:20:46,867
But why fucking beat
your own head in?

399
00:20:46,867 --> 00:20:49,267
That's what you get married for.

400
00:20:49,267 --> 00:20:51,967
(laughter)

401
00:20:51,967 --> 00:20:54,800
- Boy, is that the
truth, brother.

402
00:20:55,767 --> 00:20:58,200
- What animal Kevin would be?

403
00:20:59,433 --> 00:21:02,700
Knowing about him now,
I'd say a wolverine.

404
00:21:04,700 --> 00:21:07,200
He has an insatiable appetite.

405
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,300
He always kills and eats more,

406
00:21:13,300 --> 00:21:18,067
or kills more than he
needs to sustain himself.

407
00:21:18,067 --> 00:21:20,633
In other words, he's excessive.

408
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,267
And I guess that relates to what

409
00:21:24,267 --> 00:21:25,700
Kevin might be doing now.

410
00:21:25,700 --> 00:21:28,633
Dealing in music,
is excessiveness,

411
00:21:29,733 --> 00:21:31,067
of the punk era.

412
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,233
A weasel does the same thing.

413
00:21:37,167 --> 00:21:38,833
The weasel family.

414
00:21:38,833 --> 00:21:39,767
Same thing.

415
00:21:43,267 --> 00:21:46,767
- As far as the
music we were doing,

416
00:21:46,767 --> 00:21:50,133
It was regular high school band.

417
00:21:50,133 --> 00:21:52,800
He was just one of the drummers.

418
00:22:00,533 --> 00:22:02,700
- Describe GG to me.

419
00:22:02,700 --> 00:22:05,700
What's the best way
to describe him?

420
00:22:08,067 --> 00:22:11,067
- God, Jesus, and
Satan rolled into one.

421
00:22:11,067 --> 00:22:12,800
- You believe that?

422
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:14,867
- Yes, that's how he
describes himself.

423
00:22:14,867 --> 00:22:17,267
- How would you describe him?

424
00:22:18,467 --> 00:22:22,400
- Extremely outrageous
and beautiful person.

425
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,433
Likes to have fun.

426
00:22:24,433 --> 00:22:26,667
No holds barred, no limits.

427
00:22:29,700 --> 00:22:34,133
If it was up to him, he
would do anything he can do,

428
00:22:34,133 --> 00:22:37,233
and that includes everything,

429
00:22:37,233 --> 00:22:40,333
just to make himself
and others laugh.

430
00:22:40,333 --> 00:22:43,733
And he's also a serious
social comment on

431
00:22:45,100 --> 00:22:48,667
the problems of violence
in the human race.

432
00:22:52,067 --> 00:22:54,067
You see there's far
too much violence,

433
00:22:54,067 --> 00:22:55,967
not enough sweetness,

434
00:22:55,967 --> 00:22:58,433
and that's basically,

435
00:22:58,433 --> 00:23:01,200
if you ask me,
what his whole act

436
00:23:02,067 --> 00:23:02,967
centers on.

437
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,167
- While we were sitting in
a bar one night in Boston,

438
00:23:11,167 --> 00:23:14,067
a bunch of us just
trying to be left alone,

439
00:23:14,067 --> 00:23:16,567
and this woman came over,

440
00:23:16,567 --> 00:23:20,500
and started asking GG a
bunch of stupid questions,

441
00:23:20,500 --> 00:23:23,233
and you know, just
bothering him.

442
00:23:25,067 --> 00:23:28,333
After we tried to
get her to leave,

443
00:23:28,333 --> 00:23:30,500
and she wouldn't leave,

444
00:23:30,500 --> 00:23:33,867
GG ended up putting a
cigarette out in her face,

445
00:23:33,867 --> 00:23:35,733
and throwing her
halfway across the bar,

446
00:23:35,733 --> 00:23:37,167
into a bunch of tables,

447
00:23:37,167 --> 00:23:42,100
and we all ended up gettin'
thrown out of the bar.

448
00:23:42,100 --> 00:23:44,167
It just goes to show that

449
00:23:45,233 --> 00:23:46,533
when GG's around people

450
00:23:46,533 --> 00:23:48,633
that he doesn't feel
comfortable with,

451
00:23:48,633 --> 00:23:52,100
or just doesn't
want to deal with,

452
00:23:52,100 --> 00:23:53,767
anything can happen.

453
00:23:56,567 --> 00:23:58,633
- Myself, I don't look
at GG as a leader.

454
00:23:58,633 --> 00:24:01,733
GG, I do believe
GG hates everybody.

455
00:24:01,733 --> 00:24:03,767
And I think a lot of
people pick up on that,

456
00:24:03,767 --> 00:24:06,067
because a lot of people,

457
00:24:06,067 --> 00:24:07,967
especially like me,

458
00:24:07,967 --> 00:24:10,200
filled with a lot of shit,

459
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,333
that maybe even if I don't
ever get it out myself,

460
00:24:12,333 --> 00:24:13,433
he's gettin' it out for me.

461
00:24:13,433 --> 00:24:15,667
I can do it vicariously
through him.

462
00:24:15,667 --> 00:24:17,200
Like my band, I'd
never go on stage

463
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,600
and take a dump and
throw it at people.

464
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:20,800
But GG's doing it.

465
00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:22,500
I think, because GG's doing it,

466
00:24:22,500 --> 00:24:24,533
and the reason why
people follow him is,

467
00:24:24,533 --> 00:24:26,067
he's doing something
that a lot of people

468
00:24:26,067 --> 00:24:28,733
wish they had the
fuckin' balls to do.

469
00:24:28,733 --> 00:24:30,233
And, there you go.

470
00:24:32,733 --> 00:24:35,500
- Fuck it, it's
like the whole thing

471
00:24:35,500 --> 00:24:37,067
with society today,

472
00:24:38,633 --> 00:24:41,467
you know, go to school,
get a job, get married,

473
00:24:41,467 --> 00:24:43,267
and have kids, and
take out loans,

474
00:24:43,267 --> 00:24:46,300
and dig a fuckin' hole
you can never get out of.

475
00:24:46,300 --> 00:24:50,100
And to me, that's just
the way of the government,

476
00:24:50,100 --> 00:24:51,367
chaining you down,

477
00:24:51,367 --> 00:24:53,333
so that you can never
get out of their grip.

478
00:24:53,333 --> 00:24:56,633
It's somebody like me, who
can do whatever they want.

479
00:24:56,633 --> 00:24:58,233
I never have to pay taxes.

480
00:24:58,233 --> 00:25:00,800
I fuck whoever I want.

481
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,433
I can go here, I can go there.

482
00:25:03,433 --> 00:25:05,400
If somebody calls me,
I can go tomorrow.

483
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:06,333
I don't have to think about,

484
00:25:06,333 --> 00:25:08,367
well, I gotta take care of this.

485
00:25:08,367 --> 00:25:09,533
I can just go.

486
00:25:11,867 --> 00:25:14,067
That's the only way
to fuckin' live.

487
00:25:14,067 --> 00:25:18,233
People are just so fucking
concerned about stupid shit.

488
00:25:20,133 --> 00:25:21,700
- Give us, we'll bleep it,

489
00:25:21,700 --> 00:25:23,067
as we have been bleeping

490
00:25:23,067 --> 00:25:24,667
everything you've been
saying up until now,

491
00:25:24,667 --> 00:25:26,600
but give us an
example of a lyric.

492
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:28,700
Can you give us a lyric?

493
00:25:28,700 --> 00:25:31,800
- Well, we've got one
called, I Love Nothing.

494
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,300
I'm a cold (bleep)
nothing will hitch.

495
00:25:34,300 --> 00:25:36,600
I was a fetus-infected
son of a (bleep).

496
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,067
People and possessions
only slow me down.

497
00:25:39,067 --> 00:25:40,300
I'm on a burning bridge,

498
00:25:40,300 --> 00:25:42,733
you're in my way,
you're going down.

499
00:25:42,733 --> 00:25:45,533
(laughter and applause)

500
00:25:45,533 --> 00:25:49,167
- Again, I point out
for the record, that

501
00:25:49,167 --> 00:25:50,500
GG Allin's fan--

502
00:25:51,633 --> 00:25:53,267
the name of GG's
band incidentally is

503
00:25:53,267 --> 00:25:55,633
the Murder Junkies band.

504
00:25:55,633 --> 00:25:57,267
The Murder Junkies band,

505
00:25:57,267 --> 00:26:01,467
could you show John right
there the tattoo on your--

506
00:26:01,467 --> 00:26:02,700
it looks hand-done.

507
00:26:02,700 --> 00:26:03,533
- On what?

508
00:26:03,533 --> 00:26:04,633
- On your chest.

509
00:26:04,633 --> 00:26:07,067
I got it (bleep),

510
00:26:07,067 --> 00:26:08,233
with fast dye.

511
00:26:16,100 --> 00:26:19,700
- The only difference between
a tattoo that I would get,

512
00:26:19,700 --> 00:26:21,767
and a tattoo that GG would get,

513
00:26:21,767 --> 00:26:23,400
is that I pay for mine.

514
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,633
(laughter)

515
00:26:27,167 --> 00:26:29,100
- Who does GG's tattoos?

516
00:26:29,100 --> 00:26:30,267
- Ask him.

517
00:26:30,267 --> 00:26:31,800
He probably couldn't
even tell you.

518
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,067
- Oh, he doesn't
do them himself?

519
00:26:33,067 --> 00:26:34,600
- No, he gets,

520
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:36,800
he used to get
rip-roaring drunk,

521
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,833
and whoever was around with

522
00:26:38,833 --> 00:26:40,267
ink and a needle,

523
00:26:41,467 --> 00:26:43,200
whatever they thought
about puttin' on him,

524
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:44,933
that's what he'd get.

525
00:26:48,067 --> 00:26:50,067
You ever see any of
my brother's tattoos?

526
00:26:50,067 --> 00:26:50,900
- Rude and crude.

527
00:26:50,900 --> 00:26:51,733
- Oh yeah.

528
00:26:52,900 --> 00:26:54,633
The kind of tattoos
that wouldn't work

529
00:26:54,633 --> 00:26:56,633
for anybody else but GG.

530
00:27:02,833 --> 00:27:05,100
GG has no place in society.

531
00:27:06,633 --> 00:27:07,967
He's pretty much

532
00:27:08,967 --> 00:27:09,800
taken over

533
00:27:11,333 --> 00:27:14,900
doing exactly what
he wants to do.

534
00:27:14,900 --> 00:27:17,833
Society has no place for GG.

535
00:27:17,833 --> 00:27:20,400
I mean he's just a --

536
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,233
- What about his fans?

537
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:26,233
- His fans' place in society?

538
00:27:28,733 --> 00:27:30,767
I have no idea.

539
00:27:30,767 --> 00:27:33,867
I don't know if they
know themselves.

540
00:27:35,067 --> 00:27:36,667
- I think a typical
GG fan is probably

541
00:27:36,667 --> 00:27:39,600
somebody that drinks a lot.

542
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,600
- Are you a typical fan?

543
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:45,500
- I guess you could say
I may be a typical fan,

544
00:27:45,500 --> 00:27:46,767
because I do drink a lot,

545
00:27:46,767 --> 00:27:48,667
and I pretty much think
about everything he does

546
00:27:48,667 --> 00:27:51,500
is totally fuckin' hilarious.

547
00:27:51,500 --> 00:27:53,200
I mean, a lot of
people get scared,

548
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:54,867
or too scared to go to GG shows.

549
00:27:54,867 --> 00:27:57,700
After they go see one
they might be scared.

550
00:27:57,700 --> 00:27:59,767
But the thing is,
that's why you're there.

551
00:27:59,767 --> 00:28:01,167
And to me, that's like comedy,

552
00:28:01,167 --> 00:28:02,400
going to see him.

553
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:03,967
As long as he ain't
jumpin' off on my ass.

554
00:28:03,967 --> 00:28:05,233
If he's beatin' up other people,

555
00:28:05,233 --> 00:28:07,400
and throwin' his shit
at others, I'm happy.

556
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:08,600
'Cause I don't want
none of it on me.

557
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:10,600
I just learned
quick where to go,

558
00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:12,400
once he hits the fuckin' stage.

559
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:13,967
It's behind him.

560
00:28:13,967 --> 00:28:15,367
- If there's zen in it all,

561
00:28:15,367 --> 00:28:18,367
it's going there, and
contributing to the bad karma,

562
00:28:18,367 --> 00:28:20,167
which everybody around him,

563
00:28:20,167 --> 00:28:22,967
he just seems to attract people
with the worst attitudes,

564
00:28:22,967 --> 00:28:25,633
and like just the biggest
losers on the planet.

565
00:28:25,633 --> 00:28:29,300
They just flock to
him like a magnet.

566
00:28:29,300 --> 00:28:30,567
If he had any kind of sense,

567
00:28:30,567 --> 00:28:32,200
he would rally these
people like troops,

568
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:35,133
with some kind of
like bogus religion.

569
00:28:35,133 --> 00:28:37,067
Put drugs in their food,
half starve them to death,

570
00:28:37,067 --> 00:28:38,867
and send them out on the
street, begging money.

571
00:28:38,867 --> 00:28:39,867
But, he doesn't,

572
00:28:39,867 --> 00:28:41,633
because he's very small-minded,

573
00:28:41,633 --> 00:28:42,700
and instead he just
has these people

574
00:28:42,700 --> 00:28:44,067
come to rock and roll shows,

575
00:28:44,067 --> 00:28:45,067
and throws chairs at them.

576
00:28:45,067 --> 00:28:46,200
Breaks bottles on his head,

577
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,833
smash himself in the
head with a microphone,

578
00:28:47,833 --> 00:28:48,667
and then,

579
00:28:50,767 --> 00:28:52,467
he runs through the crowd naked,

580
00:28:52,467 --> 00:28:54,433
and he eats his
own shit, big deal.

581
00:28:54,433 --> 00:28:55,900
- Everybody's an enemy.

582
00:28:55,900 --> 00:28:57,533
Fuck it, I hate everybody.

583
00:28:57,533 --> 00:28:59,900
I'm not part of any scene.

584
00:28:59,900 --> 00:29:00,733
I do my own thing.

585
00:29:00,733 --> 00:29:02,067
My mind's a machine gun.

586
00:29:02,067 --> 00:29:03,333
My body's the bullets.

587
00:29:03,333 --> 00:29:05,667
The audience, is the target.

588
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,500
- Entertainment,

589
00:29:11,500 --> 00:29:12,333
laughs,

590
00:29:13,567 --> 00:29:14,833
even the fear thing,

591
00:29:14,833 --> 00:29:16,133
because there's been
a couple of GG shows

592
00:29:16,133 --> 00:29:17,933
where I was
definitely afraid that

593
00:29:17,933 --> 00:29:22,100
my skull was gonna be
cracked at any minute.

594
00:29:22,100 --> 00:29:23,067
It's that whole thing,

595
00:29:23,067 --> 00:29:24,167
it's kind of like going to see

596
00:29:24,167 --> 00:29:25,433
the most bizarre freak show

597
00:29:25,433 --> 00:29:28,400
you'd ever want to
see in your life.

598
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:31,100
Why do people go to freak shows?

599
00:29:31,100 --> 00:29:33,767
- He's got some
real diehard fans.

600
00:29:33,767 --> 00:29:36,200
He's got fans that would,

601
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:39,100
that would probably
kill themselves,

602
00:29:39,100 --> 00:29:41,067
with him if he wanted, you know.

603
00:29:41,067 --> 00:29:42,767
I've had plenty of people

604
00:29:42,767 --> 00:29:44,333
say to me, well

605
00:29:44,333 --> 00:29:45,900
I'm gonna be standing
right in the front row,

606
00:29:45,900 --> 00:29:48,233
when GG kills himself.

607
00:29:48,233 --> 00:29:51,300
And hopefully he'll
take me with him.

608
00:29:52,733 --> 00:29:56,300
I think that's a pretty,
hardcore fan right there.

609
00:30:00,100 --> 00:30:02,533
- Okay, so last August,
it was GG's birthday,

610
00:30:02,533 --> 00:30:04,800
and he'd just gotten in town.

611
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:06,033
Hung out with him a little bit,

612
00:30:06,033 --> 00:30:07,933
and went to the first
show in Jersey and said,

613
00:30:07,933 --> 00:30:09,767
let's throw a
birthday party for GG,

614
00:30:09,767 --> 00:30:11,267
a cookout at my house.

615
00:30:11,267 --> 00:30:13,633
Me and Lenny bought a bunch
of meat, a bunch of beer,

616
00:30:13,633 --> 00:30:15,767
and we bought GG's Jim Beam.

617
00:30:15,767 --> 00:30:18,067
GG comes over, and
before he came, he said,

618
00:30:18,067 --> 00:30:20,200
I'm not coming to Brooklyn
unless you're gonna get a girl

619
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,633
to piss or shit in my mouth.

620
00:30:22,633 --> 00:30:24,333
I said okay, just come on
over, we'll get somebody,

621
00:30:24,333 --> 00:30:25,567
'cause there's all
these crack whores

622
00:30:25,567 --> 00:30:27,600
right around the place
where I was livin'.

623
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,900
We figurin', I'll get somebody.

624
00:30:29,900 --> 00:30:31,900
You know, GG'll pay 'em
50 bucks if he has to.

625
00:30:31,900 --> 00:30:33,367
We'll get somebody.

626
00:30:33,367 --> 00:30:34,833
It turns out this girl I know,

627
00:30:34,833 --> 00:30:38,267
who's like an
especially frisky type,

628
00:30:38,267 --> 00:30:41,733
was there, and I turned to
her and I said, Jennifer,

629
00:30:41,733 --> 00:30:44,567
you want to piss
in G, wait, whoa.

630
00:30:45,967 --> 00:30:49,667
I fucked up, I really
shouldn't like say her name.

631
00:30:52,633 --> 00:30:53,467
- Mark it.

632
00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,800
- So this girl I
know that was there.

633
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,100
I said to her, I said look,

634
00:30:59,100 --> 00:31:01,433
would you take a
piss in GG's mouth?

635
00:31:01,433 --> 00:31:02,600
And she goes, yeah.

636
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,833
And I said, do you
mind if Merle films it?

637
00:31:04,833 --> 00:31:06,567
She goes, no, not at all.

638
00:31:06,567 --> 00:31:08,500
So, I moved them
into the bathroom,

639
00:31:08,500 --> 00:31:10,067
and GG lays down on the floor,

640
00:31:10,067 --> 00:31:12,800
and she strips off all her
clothes and she squats.

641
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:14,367
And it's great because
she's got a pierced clit

642
00:31:14,367 --> 00:31:15,300
and everything too.

643
00:31:15,300 --> 00:31:17,100
So it looked really good.

644
00:31:17,100 --> 00:31:20,700
And she just starts
pissin' in mouthfuls,

645
00:31:20,700 --> 00:31:24,433
and GG's laying there drinkin'
it, and like, (guzzle sounds)

646
00:31:24,433 --> 00:31:27,067
and then, on like the
third gulp, he got down,

647
00:31:27,067 --> 00:31:28,300
this is the best part,

648
00:31:28,300 --> 00:31:31,067
he just absolutely like
upchucked, and puked,

649
00:31:31,067 --> 00:31:33,100
all the barbecued
weenies and burgers

650
00:31:33,100 --> 00:31:34,967
he had been eatin'
at the cookout,

651
00:31:34,967 --> 00:31:36,467
up all over his face,

652
00:31:36,467 --> 00:31:38,133
and then took another
mouthful of piss,

653
00:31:38,133 --> 00:31:40,600
and he was a pretty
happy boy after that.

654
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,067
I mean, I felt good about him

655
00:31:43,067 --> 00:31:45,067
not even having to
pay out his money.

656
00:31:45,067 --> 00:31:48,067
And I got the girl to piss
on him for his birthday.

657
00:31:48,067 --> 00:31:48,900
- Is that it?

658
00:31:48,900 --> 00:31:49,733
Am I off?

659
00:31:49,733 --> 00:31:50,733
- You're off.

660
00:31:50,733 --> 00:31:52,833
- I don't want to be off.

661
00:31:55,633 --> 00:31:57,967
Put it all on, anybody else?

662
00:31:59,300 --> 00:32:00,100
Come on.

663
00:32:05,467 --> 00:32:07,100
(applause)

664
00:32:07,100 --> 00:32:08,500
I'm not done yet.

665
00:32:10,433 --> 00:32:13,733
- (Muffled) fuckin'
fucked, so fuck it.

666
00:32:13,733 --> 00:32:15,400
- I wanna be fucked.

667
00:32:16,467 --> 00:32:17,633
- Who's my am.

668
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:23,367
- This skin is like paper.

669
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,633
- It's like my stage
show balances me out,

670
00:32:33,633 --> 00:32:36,900
because if it wasn't
for what I do on stage,

671
00:32:36,900 --> 00:32:38,233
I would probably

672
00:32:39,100 --> 00:32:40,667
be a mass murderer.

673
00:32:41,700 --> 00:32:43,267
I know I'd kill somebody,

674
00:32:43,267 --> 00:32:46,433
because I have such
a fierce, intense,

675
00:32:48,300 --> 00:32:49,767
fire burning inside of me,

676
00:32:49,767 --> 00:32:53,900
that just so much,
just wants to explode.

677
00:32:53,900 --> 00:32:58,067
- GG, at least at one time
claimed that he related to Gacy,

678
00:32:59,267 --> 00:33:01,067
like, just because
of the fact that Gacy

679
00:33:01,067 --> 00:33:05,300
was the most notorious of
all American serial killers.

680
00:33:05,300 --> 00:33:07,333
And he's the most
easily accessible.

681
00:33:07,333 --> 00:33:08,500
I mean, you can just
write to the guy,

682
00:33:08,500 --> 00:33:10,100
and he'll write you back.

683
00:33:10,100 --> 00:33:12,400
And GG had actually
gone to visit him.

684
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,633
Which is pretty funny
bringin' up Gacy.

685
00:33:15,633 --> 00:33:17,233
I went to visit Gacy one summer

686
00:33:17,233 --> 00:33:20,533
like about a week after
GG had been there.

687
00:33:20,533 --> 00:33:22,067
And Gacy said to me, he goes,

688
00:33:22,067 --> 00:33:24,200
that GG man, great kid,
I like that guy a lot,

689
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,067
love him like a brother,
but man if he doesn't stink

690
00:33:26,067 --> 00:33:30,233
like the worst, pissiest ass
wino I've ever met in my life.

691
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,400
- What do you think
they talked about?

692
00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:34,567
- Gacy and GG?

693
00:33:37,333 --> 00:33:39,300
Probably a lot of sex,
'cause no matter who you are,

694
00:33:39,300 --> 00:33:43,100
if you go to visit Gacy you're
gonna talk about sex all day.

695
00:33:43,100 --> 00:33:44,333
Especially violent sex,

696
00:33:44,333 --> 00:33:45,633
and anything that
has to do with like

697
00:33:45,633 --> 00:33:47,367
any kind of piss or anything.

698
00:33:47,367 --> 00:33:49,400
You're gonna be
talkin' about that.

699
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,733
Although first hand, I
wouldn't actually know,

700
00:33:51,733 --> 00:33:55,733
I've got a good idea what
they were talkin' about.

701
00:33:55,733 --> 00:33:57,500
Tyin' up young girls.

702
00:33:58,733 --> 00:34:02,733
* I hear Mariachi
static on my radio

703
00:34:04,233 --> 00:34:08,400
* And the tubes they
glow in the dark

704
00:34:09,667 --> 00:34:13,833
* And I'm there
with you in Ensenada

705
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:18,467
* But I'm here in Echo Park

706
00:34:19,933 --> 00:34:23,600
* Carmelita hold me tighter

707
00:34:25,567 --> 00:34:29,167
* I think I'm sinking down

708
00:34:30,467 --> 00:34:34,633
* And I'm all
strung out on heroin

709
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,167
* On the outskirts of town

710
00:34:43,367 --> 00:34:48,300
* Well I pawned my
Smith and Wesson

711
00:34:48,300 --> 00:34:51,967
* And I went to meet my man

712
00:34:53,733 --> 00:34:58,267
* He hangs out down
on El Dorado Street

713
00:34:58,267 --> 00:35:02,100
* At the county chicken stand

714
00:35:03,300 --> 00:35:06,967
* Carmelita hold me tighter

715
00:35:08,667 --> 00:35:12,233
* I think I'm sinking down

716
00:35:13,533 --> 00:35:17,700
* And I'm all
strung out on heroin

717
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:22,133
* On the outskirts of town

718
00:35:26,233 --> 00:35:28,067
- I think GG is takin'

719
00:35:30,100 --> 00:35:31,567
this sort of like, my father,

720
00:35:31,567 --> 00:35:33,733
'cause my father, is
like, very strange,

721
00:35:33,733 --> 00:35:35,400
and very set in his ways,

722
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:37,500
and he's a total recluse,

723
00:35:38,867 --> 00:35:41,900
and basically doesn't really
associate with anyone.

724
00:35:41,900 --> 00:35:44,900
He doesn't have
any friends at all.

725
00:35:44,900 --> 00:35:46,733
I think GG's basically

726
00:35:47,933 --> 00:35:51,067
has turned out a
lot like his father.

727
00:35:52,867 --> 00:35:54,100
- My lifestyle,

728
00:35:55,233 --> 00:35:58,167
pretty much consists
of what you see.

729
00:36:00,233 --> 00:36:01,567
I got one pair of pants.

730
00:36:01,567 --> 00:36:03,400
I got a jacket, shirt.

731
00:36:05,633 --> 00:36:07,067
Pretty much everything I own

732
00:36:07,067 --> 00:36:09,200
will fit into a paper bag.

733
00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:13,200
To me it seems like it's
the only way to live.

734
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:14,600
If you gotta,

735
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:15,800
I'm the type of person

736
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:19,567
who always has to get
out of town quick.

737
00:36:19,567 --> 00:36:21,800
So, possessions really
don't mean anything to me.

738
00:36:21,800 --> 00:36:25,733
It's more of the fact
that I need to move fast.

739
00:36:28,267 --> 00:36:29,233
So I don't need anything.

740
00:36:29,233 --> 00:36:30,067
That way,

741
00:36:32,067 --> 00:36:33,833
they can never catch me.

742
00:36:33,833 --> 00:36:36,233
- Can you tell me a little
bit about your father?

743
00:36:36,233 --> 00:36:41,067
- Well, he told my mother
one day, that he wanted to

744
00:36:41,067 --> 00:36:43,400
commit suicide with her.

745
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,367
Well, kill the two kids,
and then commit suicide,

746
00:36:46,367 --> 00:36:49,133
and she kind of blew it off,

747
00:36:49,133 --> 00:36:51,067
and then one day,

748
00:36:51,067 --> 00:36:52,800
he was down in the
cellar, digging,

749
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:53,867
and he came up and she said,

750
00:36:53,867 --> 00:36:55,633
what are you doin' down there,

751
00:36:55,633 --> 00:36:57,233
and he told her to
come down and see,

752
00:36:57,233 --> 00:37:00,800
and he had four graves
dug in the cellar.

753
00:37:00,800 --> 00:37:02,300
Things like that.

754
00:37:02,300 --> 00:37:04,933
And he would take the bed
out, and set it on fire.

755
00:37:04,933 --> 00:37:06,567
You know, bury
things in the yard.

756
00:37:06,567 --> 00:37:08,933
You know, just things like that.

757
00:37:08,933 --> 00:37:11,700
- My last memory
of my father is,

758
00:37:13,700 --> 00:37:15,967
actually I don't really have

759
00:37:15,967 --> 00:37:20,533
too many memories of him,
because he was never really

760
00:37:20,533 --> 00:37:21,867
around that much,

761
00:37:21,867 --> 00:37:24,167
and when my parents split up,

762
00:37:24,167 --> 00:37:27,067
we didn't see our
father for years.

763
00:37:27,067 --> 00:37:30,600
- This is news
channel four at six.

764
00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:32,367
- I will continue to fight,

765
00:37:32,367 --> 00:37:34,467
and I will never
back down to anybody.

766
00:37:34,467 --> 00:37:36,600
They'll have to put
me in jail for life.

767
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:38,467
- The jury returns
a guilty verdict,

768
00:37:38,467 --> 00:37:41,133
saying it's a crime, not art.

769
00:37:41,133 --> 00:37:43,400
- My message is a
message of rebellion.

770
00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:45,700
I'm the voice of the
young people in America.

771
00:37:45,700 --> 00:37:47,700
The angst, I'm
anchored in rebellion.

772
00:37:47,700 --> 00:37:49,733
My message is from the street.

773
00:37:49,733 --> 00:37:51,067
The people that are out there.

774
00:37:51,067 --> 00:37:54,067
I take the street, and
I put it on the stage.

775
00:37:54,067 --> 00:37:56,467
- Allin also claims
he will kill himself

776
00:37:56,467 --> 00:37:59,100
on Halloween night, 1992,

777
00:37:59,100 --> 00:38:00,967
as a sacrifice to rock and roll.

778
00:38:00,967 --> 00:38:02,333
But this is not the first time,

779
00:38:02,333 --> 00:38:04,267
he has made that
specific threat.

780
00:38:04,267 --> 00:38:06,067
- If I was giving
my life to something

781
00:38:06,067 --> 00:38:07,467
as big as rock and roll,

782
00:38:07,467 --> 00:38:09,067
I'd be killing the president,

783
00:38:09,067 --> 00:38:10,533
in the name of rock and roll.

784
00:38:10,533 --> 00:38:13,533
I would be changing
worlds of people,

785
00:38:13,533 --> 00:38:16,267
instead of like making
a small, minor dent,

786
00:38:16,267 --> 00:38:18,867
as if I was throwing a
quarter at a sheet of metal.

787
00:38:18,867 --> 00:38:19,700
You know what I mean?

788
00:38:19,700 --> 00:38:20,967
And he's like,

789
00:38:20,967 --> 00:38:22,233
he's toying around with
this underground thing.

790
00:38:22,233 --> 00:38:23,467
He's not helping,
he's not hurting.

791
00:38:23,467 --> 00:38:25,067
He's not doing anything,
he's just a spectacle.

792
00:38:25,067 --> 00:38:27,200
He belongs in a circus.

793
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,067
- GG's been talking about
killing himself on stage

794
00:38:29,067 --> 00:38:30,767
for a while now.

795
00:38:30,767 --> 00:38:33,200
And he keeps puttin' it off.

796
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,400
And a lot of people are
like, starting to naysay,

797
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:36,600
and saying, ah he's
never gonna do it,

798
00:38:36,600 --> 00:38:37,433
he's never gonna do it.

799
00:38:37,433 --> 00:38:38,867
I think,

800
00:38:38,867 --> 00:38:40,067
that he probably will do it,

801
00:38:40,067 --> 00:38:41,333
if somebody didn't end up

802
00:38:41,333 --> 00:38:42,800
puttin' a bullet
in his head first.

803
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:43,767
I think he will do it,

804
00:38:43,767 --> 00:38:45,767
but God knows when he'd do it.

805
00:38:45,767 --> 00:38:47,367
- Let me quote you.

806
00:38:48,700 --> 00:38:51,567
As to what GG Allin says,

807
00:38:51,567 --> 00:38:54,700
he really intends to go
through with his suicide plan

808
00:38:54,700 --> 00:38:56,300
remains to be seen.

809
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,367
What the fuck
remains to be seen?

810
00:39:00,367 --> 00:39:03,400
I may have gone to
the fucking hospital,

811
00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:05,367
and I may have
done these things.

812
00:39:05,367 --> 00:39:07,800
But I'm never
fucking crying wolf.

813
00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:10,767
When I say I'm gonna
fucking kill myself,

814
00:39:10,767 --> 00:39:12,500
on October 31st 1990,

815
00:39:13,633 --> 00:39:15,600
I'm gonna fucking do it.

816
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,867
And no god damn bullshit
Boston newspaper,

817
00:39:18,867 --> 00:39:22,467
is gonna fuckin' tell
me, that I'm crying wolf,

818
00:39:22,467 --> 00:39:24,733
when I'm fucking dead.

819
00:39:24,733 --> 00:39:26,067
This fucking newspaper

820
00:39:26,067 --> 00:39:27,867
is full of fucking shit.

821
00:39:27,867 --> 00:39:29,433
Burn with it, baby.

822
00:39:30,433 --> 00:39:32,433
Bull-- why don't I what?

823
00:39:33,967 --> 00:39:35,400
Why don't I what?

824
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:38,733
Do what?

825
00:39:38,733 --> 00:39:40,500
Kill myself sooner?

826
00:39:40,500 --> 00:39:42,233
Because it would have
pleased you too much

827
00:39:42,233 --> 00:39:43,900
you fucking cunt.

828
00:39:43,900 --> 00:39:44,833
Come up here,

829
00:39:44,833 --> 00:39:45,967
why don't you come right up here

830
00:39:45,967 --> 00:39:48,533
to the mic and tell me that.

831
00:39:48,533 --> 00:39:49,367
Come on.

832
00:39:50,433 --> 00:39:51,267
Come on.

833
00:39:56,667 --> 00:39:57,500
- You want me to?

834
00:39:57,500 --> 00:39:58,900
- Yeah.

835
00:39:58,900 --> 00:40:01,700
Why didn't I kill myself sooner?

836
00:40:01,700 --> 00:40:03,500
Why don't you kill
yourself sooner?

837
00:40:03,500 --> 00:40:04,433
- Fuck you.

838
00:40:15,667 --> 00:40:16,600
- Fuck you.

839
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:17,933
Fuck you.

840
00:40:17,933 --> 00:40:20,267
Why didn't I kill myself sooner?

841
00:40:20,267 --> 00:40:22,133
You fuckin'--

842
00:40:22,133 --> 00:40:22,967
Fuck you.

843
00:40:25,267 --> 00:40:27,300
I'd kill myself sooner.

844
00:40:27,300 --> 00:40:29,633
Do you want me to
kill myself sooner?

845
00:40:29,633 --> 00:40:32,300
Well, you're gonna have to wait.

846
00:40:33,733 --> 00:40:37,367
Because I ain't gonna kill
myself on anybody's benefit.

847
00:40:37,367 --> 00:40:39,533
Take your fucking newspapers,

848
00:40:39,533 --> 00:40:41,367
take whatever you got.

849
00:40:46,867 --> 00:40:48,333
Oh yeah, do that.

850
00:40:48,333 --> 00:40:51,667
Take the barrel off,
bring on the posse.

851
00:40:53,333 --> 00:40:55,533
- What's the reason for it?

852
00:40:55,533 --> 00:40:58,367
- Well, it's like
my soul is just,

853
00:41:02,233 --> 00:41:06,933
it's just beyond this
fucking universe, it's like,

854
00:41:06,933 --> 00:41:08,233
it can't be confined,

855
00:41:08,233 --> 00:41:10,667
it's like I got this wild soul.

856
00:41:10,667 --> 00:41:12,633
It wants to get
out of this life.

857
00:41:12,633 --> 00:41:15,633
It's too confined in this life,

858
00:41:15,633 --> 00:41:16,967
and I think that

859
00:41:17,900 --> 00:41:20,233
to take yourself out,

860
00:41:20,233 --> 00:41:21,767
at your peak,

861
00:41:21,767 --> 00:41:24,400
if you can die at your
peak, your strongest point,

862
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:26,567
then your soul will
be that much stronger,

863
00:41:26,567 --> 00:41:28,400
in the next existence.

864
00:41:30,267 --> 00:41:31,767
- Well I feel that

865
00:41:33,733 --> 00:41:37,467
if that's what he wants
to do, it's his life.

866
00:41:39,067 --> 00:41:40,767
People are always sayin',
well why don't you

867
00:41:40,767 --> 00:41:42,100
try and talk him out of it.

868
00:41:42,100 --> 00:41:44,933
But, if you know
GG, the way I do,

869
00:41:46,433 --> 00:41:50,067
you can't talk GG out of doing
anything that he wants to do.

870
00:41:50,067 --> 00:41:52,067
It doesn't really matter
what anybody thinks,

871
00:41:52,067 --> 00:41:54,600
because he doesn't really
care what anyone thinks,

872
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,167
about what he does.

873
00:41:58,067 --> 00:41:59,833
Bottom line is, if
he wants to do it,

874
00:41:59,833 --> 00:42:01,300
he's gonna do it.

875
00:42:01,300 --> 00:42:03,600
- Do you think
people are gonna die?

876
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:06,767
- I'm not gonna answer that.

877
00:42:06,767 --> 00:42:09,100
I don't want to answer that.

878
00:42:10,300 --> 00:42:12,800
(crowd noise)

879
00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:19,833
(muffled conversation)

880
00:42:23,633 --> 00:42:24,467
- Asshole.

881
00:42:33,333 --> 00:42:37,500
* Well you want me
to kiss your ass

882
00:42:39,067 --> 00:42:43,200
* Well bend over, buddy,
here comes my foot

883
00:42:44,933 --> 00:42:49,067
* I don't need your cry ass shit

884
00:42:50,667 --> 00:42:54,500
* Temper's rising, take a fit

885
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,367
* Bite it you scum

886
00:43:02,067 --> 00:43:04,933
* Bite it you scum

887
00:43:07,967 --> 00:43:10,867
* Bite it you scum

888
00:43:13,700 --> 00:43:16,600
* Bite it you scum

889
00:43:19,133 --> 00:43:23,200
* Well you want me to contribute

890
00:43:25,067 --> 00:43:28,733
* All I got is blood for you

891
00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:34,800
* All you want is more and more

892
00:43:36,600 --> 00:43:40,433
* Gluttony, you pig you whore

893
00:43:42,367 --> 00:43:45,300
* Bite it you scum

894
00:43:48,067 --> 00:43:51,067
* Bite it you scum

895
00:43:53,800 --> 00:43:56,700
* Bite it you scum

896
00:43:59,633 --> 00:44:02,533
* Bite it you scum

897
00:44:29,167 --> 00:44:33,167
* One day when your end is near

898
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:38,600
* I'll be laughing at your fear

899
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:44,567
* When you're gone
there'll be no one

900
00:44:46,267 --> 00:44:50,433
* Who'll be fucking
up my fun - No one

901
00:44:52,233 --> 00:44:55,133
* Bite it you scum

902
00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,733
* Bite it you scum

903
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,733
* Bite it you scum

904
00:45:09,833 --> 00:45:12,467
* Bite it

905
00:45:12,467 --> 00:45:14,967
(crowd noise)

906
00:45:30,100 --> 00:45:32,133
(sirens)

907
00:45:32,133 --> 00:45:32,967
- Gee Gee!

908
00:45:35,067 --> 00:45:37,067
(sirens)

909
00:45:46,067 --> 00:45:47,633
- GG evaded the
police that night,

910
00:45:47,633 --> 00:45:49,667
and the next morning, the
Murder Junkies left New York

911
00:45:49,667 --> 00:45:51,833
to complete their US tour.

912
00:45:53,067 --> 00:45:54,333
They headed down the east coast,

913
00:45:54,333 --> 00:45:56,900
and we eventually lost contact.

914
00:45:59,067 --> 00:46:00,800
I don't know if GG
was born this way,

915
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:02,800
or if society created him,

916
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:04,333
but I do know that
the Murder Junkies

917
00:46:04,333 --> 00:46:07,400
and their fans are exceptional.

918
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:08,833
They represent a part of America

919
00:46:08,833 --> 00:46:11,600
that most people would
rather not think about.

920
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:13,900
An alienated,
directionless, minority,

921
00:46:13,900 --> 00:46:15,633
that appears to have
found it's voice,

922
00:46:15,633 --> 00:46:18,567
in a punk rocker
with a death wish.

923
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:22,467
The band made it as far
as San Antonio, Texas,

924
00:46:22,467 --> 00:46:26,167
where 15 of GG's fans jumped
him and broke his arm.

925
00:46:26,167 --> 00:46:27,833
He was taken into
police custody,

926
00:46:27,833 --> 00:46:29,433
and the tour ended.

927
00:46:30,600 --> 00:46:33,100
(phone rings)

928
00:46:38,067 --> 00:46:38,833
- Hello.

929
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:44,300
- This is Sprint,
with a collect, long
distance, call from--

930
00:46:44,300 --> 00:46:46,633
- Yeah, Todd, its GG Allin,

931
00:46:46,633 --> 00:46:50,067
- calling from a Michigan
Correctional Facility.

932
00:46:50,067 --> 00:46:52,067
Please answer the
following question,

933
00:46:52,067 --> 00:46:54,533
by pressing one, for yes,

934
00:46:54,533 --> 00:46:56,600
or two, for no.

935
00:46:56,600 --> 00:46:59,233
Will you pay for this call?

936
00:46:59,233 --> 00:47:01,067
(beep)

937
00:47:04,933 --> 00:47:09,100
* When I die put that
bottle in my hand

938
00:47:10,467 --> 00:47:14,467
* All these years on earth,
it was my only friend

939
00:47:17,367 --> 00:47:19,467
- What do girls look at?

940
00:47:19,467 --> 00:47:20,733
What were you saying?

941
00:47:20,733 --> 00:47:22,067
- Girls look at men just
like men look at women.

942
00:47:22,067 --> 00:47:24,233
They like to look
at what you have.

943
00:47:24,233 --> 00:47:25,800
What you look like.

944
00:47:28,667 --> 00:47:31,500
Well he's not
lowering the camera.

945
00:47:33,867 --> 00:47:37,233
* All my life I've
been living on the run

946
00:47:37,233 --> 00:47:41,400
* Hanging out in bars and
hotel rooms annoying everyone

947
00:47:46,133 --> 00:47:50,700
* Living on the road
running from coast to coast

948
00:47:50,700 --> 00:47:54,867
* Spending many nights in
jail, like a gunman at his post

949
00:47:58,267 --> 00:48:02,433
* When I die, you
don't have to cry

950
00:48:05,067 --> 00:48:08,067
- If GG was gun,
which would he be?

951
00:48:08,067 --> 00:48:10,700
- Shit he'd have to be a .45.

952
00:48:10,700 --> 00:48:14,267
After a while he'd like to
blow his fuckin' load heavy.

953
00:48:14,267 --> 00:48:15,667
(laughter)

954
00:48:15,667 --> 00:48:17,567
- I'd say he's more like an Uzi.

955
00:48:17,567 --> 00:48:18,867
- An Uzi.

956
00:48:18,867 --> 00:48:21,933
- Fast and furious,
the ultimate.

957
00:48:21,933 --> 00:48:24,600
- I was gonna say, 300 magnum.

958
00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:25,700
- 300 magnum.

959
00:48:25,700 --> 00:48:27,267
- Yep.

960
00:48:27,267 --> 00:48:31,433
* Live my life like
a loner on the trail

961
00:48:32,833 --> 00:48:36,533
* Some of the nights in jail,
I couldn't afford no bail

962
00:48:40,767 --> 00:48:45,467
* No one to call, no
one to see me through

963
00:48:45,467 --> 00:48:49,633
* So I bought a gun one day
and I came gunning after you

964
00:48:53,067 --> 00:48:57,167
* Living on the road,
playing scumfuc rock 'n' roll

965
00:48:59,067 --> 00:49:00,533
- And as far as hittin'
yourself in the head with

966
00:49:00,533 --> 00:49:04,567
a microphone GG, it's just not
that big of a fuckin' deal.

967
00:49:09,700 --> 00:49:10,900
No big deal.

968
00:49:10,900 --> 00:49:12,400
Doesn't hurt that bad.

969
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:13,967
Alright, am I good?

970
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:17,667
- On July 28th, 1993,

971
00:49:17,667 --> 00:49:21,067
GG Allin's mission
came to a sudden end.

972
00:49:22,067 --> 00:49:23,500
The day before, GG and the band

973
00:49:23,500 --> 00:49:25,700
gave their most violent
performance ever.

974
00:49:25,700 --> 00:49:28,300
A bloody, all ages show at the
Gas Station in New York City

975
00:49:28,300 --> 00:49:30,600
that ended with over
100 fans rioting

976
00:49:30,600 --> 00:49:33,267
throughout the
surrounding neighborhood.

977
00:49:33,267 --> 00:49:35,533
After the show, GG and some
friends went to a party,

978
00:49:35,533 --> 00:49:39,600
where they began an all-night
binge on alcohol and heroin.

979
00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:42,767
The next morning, Merle called
with some disturbing news.

980
00:49:42,767 --> 00:49:47,367
They found GG face down,
dead from a drug overdose.

981
00:49:47,367 --> 00:49:50,200
At the funeral, Joe
Coughlin, GG's biographer,

982
00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:51,533
had this to say.

983
00:49:52,933 --> 00:49:54,967
- It must have been a
lonely place you lived in,

984
00:49:54,967 --> 00:49:56,467
because for every indulgence,

985
00:49:56,467 --> 00:49:58,333
there was something
else he denied himself

986
00:49:58,333 --> 00:50:00,167
as a means to the end.

987
00:50:00,167 --> 00:50:01,400
He accomplished what he did,

988
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:03,833
right here in our
faces, in real time,

989
00:50:03,833 --> 00:50:06,933
with little help from any
tool outside his own mind.

990
00:50:06,933 --> 00:50:09,067
These things can't be denied.

991
00:50:09,067 --> 00:50:11,367
Could we have learned more
if he was still around?

992
00:50:11,367 --> 00:50:13,367
Did we in fact learn anything?

993
00:50:13,367 --> 00:50:14,967
Hope we meet again.

994
00:50:22,833 --> 00:50:26,433
* Your god fucked me in the ass

995
00:50:26,433 --> 00:50:30,000
* Jesus Christ
sucked my fuckin' ass

996
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:33,033
* Your bible is such
a piece of trash

997
00:50:33,033 --> 00:50:37,200
* I am the highest power,
the leader of the pack

998
00:50:41,233 --> 00:50:44,733
* Hail Mary is so full of shit

999
00:50:44,733 --> 00:50:48,433
* Virgin Mary I'll
rape that fucking clit

1000
00:50:48,433 --> 00:50:51,667
* Jesus Christ was
the son of a bitch

1001
00:50:51,667 --> 00:50:55,833
* I am the highest power,
the leader of the pack

1002
00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:03,267
* Your church, let's
burn it to the ground

1003
00:51:03,267 --> 00:51:06,700
* Priests and nuns, let's
put them in the ground

1004
00:51:06,700 --> 00:51:10,133
* We don't need those
lames to hold us back

1005
00:51:10,133 --> 00:51:14,300
* I am the highest power,
the leader of the pack

1006
00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:21,433
- Personally I always hoped

1007
00:51:21,433 --> 00:51:23,400
he would go out in a
more glorious fashion.

1008
00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:25,900
Onstage suicide, five dead fans,

1009
00:51:25,900 --> 00:51:28,367
something rock and roll
could never ignore.

1010
00:51:28,367 --> 00:51:32,100
Instead, GG Allin,
public animal number one,

1011
00:51:32,100 --> 00:51:34,200
died like a rock star,

1012
00:51:34,200 --> 00:51:36,600
in typical rock star fashion.
