You must have a HUGE bladder if you can even fathom doing that.


I wish I had enough piss to drown all those whiny fucktards.

Urban Outfitters simply sells overpriced, shittier versions of overpriced, shitty clothes people who listen to shitty, bloated indie rock fatcats may have worn in the shitty, bloated '80s. Or something.

My best friend gets all of his clothes from that place and American Apparel. He looks like a fucking commercial for those joints. Anyways, I was in there the other day, and everyone looks like everyone else. Not in that Abercrombie/Hollister way either. Same scruffy facial hair, tight t-shirt, zip-up hoody with stripes or all-over print, Nikes or Vans, and tight Diesel jeans. Not only do I get the eat shit, "get a load of this guy" stare from everyone, but I strangely feel like they've all been duped. Correct?

Unless anyone there was an idiot (other than GG, natch), they knew that going to that show, they might get hurt, or hit with feces, or see someone naked. It was little surprise, then, when GG pushed his way through the crowd the band played two songs, he hit a bunch of folks while yelling for a bit and then the "venue" (some DIY former gas station in the East Village) shut the thing down as GG broke a bunch of glass. The crowd milled around for a bit while GG popped up here and there to hit someone or perform aggressive frottage on someone else.

At one point I saw a fella being carried away by two people I assume were his friends. He was unconscious and his face was a bloody mess, presumably the result of a bad run in with the star attraction.

It's a little complicated - Allin was consistently, sincerely misanthropic and broadcasted this to anyone who paid attention. But just because you're onstage doesn't give you the right to be an asshole to other people. Punching someone's face in = asshole.

Crap.

I remember that show. I remember GG sucker punching some blond kid with the mic. in his hand. I remember the kid falling down unsconcious before he ever knew what hit him. Never even had a chance to lift his hands in self defence. That was crap.

About a year before that I saw him in a club in Newark NJ. He gave his brother a blow job on stage. There are some things I wish I could unsee.

Crap.

I always wondered why people would want to be anywhere near to GG during a show. That's where the disconnect is for me. I have the brains to not hug the stage - it doesn't really take that much thought to know that standing next to a poo-thrower is bad.

I guess I'm also saying that his shows should have been empty. If there's no audience, there's no performance. But he performed, for large audiences, over a long "career".

With that said, smashing a cat in the soup-cooler and blowing your brother are crap, no waffles. My point is that he should have never been in a position to push farther and farther - unless there's a market for it.

And there's a market for it.

maybe i'm being stupid here, and i apologise if i am, but my problem with GG is this...

GG went on about the level of censorship in america being a disgrace.
GG only ever provided ammunition for those who would enforce that censorship.
I understand the point he's making a little (i don't believe it, certainly not to the extend he does), but i'd rather the likes of tipper gore weren't able to say something along the lines of 'kids these days go to concerts to get raped or have a man's shit thrown at them'.

CRAP

My vote goes to Not Crap.

He spent his life doing whatever the hell he wanted to do, and regardless of what anyone says, the man had some balls. Not much of a penis though.

I don't agree with a lot of the things he did to people, but I think it's very cool that he lived his life putting his beliefs in to action.

As for his music, he had some great shit and some boring filler shit also. I think I'm the only person in the world who likes "Carnival of Excess," his country album.
