An <a href="http://music.yahoo.com/ar-313144-bio--GG-Allin">overdose in 1993</a> did him in. A profile, <a href="http://www.bizarremag.com/bizarre_lives.php?id=67"><i>Hated:GG Allin and The Murder Junkies</i></a>, was made just before his <a href="http://home.nyc.rr.com/alweisel/spinggallin.htm">death </a> and features a portion of his <a href="http://www.heathenworld.com/music/ggallin.html">strange funeral</a>.

I'm not a performance artist or any of that, I'm not out to please anyone. Just me. Rock'n'roll has to be destroyed and rebuilt in my name if it's ever gonna accomplish anything.

Jesus Christ, God, and Satan all in one." -<a href="http://www.grayarea.com/ggallin.htm">GG, in an interview</a> tag:metafilter.com,2005:site.40840 Wed, 30 Mar 2005 16:16:58 -0800 music punk ShockRock john
