''At his funeral, Allin's bloated, discolored* corpse was dressed in his black leather jacket and trademark jock strap. He had a bottle of Jim Beam beside him in his casket, as per his wishes (openly stated in his self-penned acoustic country ballad, "When I Die")''

His wishes also included his brother played with his cock in his open coffin, which he did.

If anyone has seen the movie Trick or Treat then GG Allin is just like the star in the movie a total egotistical fool.

I guess I'm odd. If I like a mucisian, they can do no wrong in my eyes.
Scott Weiland is (was? can never tell with him) a heroin addicted wastoid, and even has his own ****epedia page, but he can do no wrong in my eyes because I LOVE HIS SONGS.
Lets take the King of Pop for instance. Child molestation. He is a giant punchline, but he just sold out a bunch of shows in England. Whether he was guilty or not, it affected his public image, but not his career. THATS BECAUSE HE'S STILL MAKING THE SAME QUALITY OF MUSIC.
Then look at Axl Rose. Also a giant punchline. He didn't get accused of anything other then being a d*ick, but his career is in the toilet. Most (me included...) agree that Chinese Democracy was beyond mediocre.
So I guess its just quality of music. Am I overthinking this?

G.G. Allin is a true showman and for that I respect his act. I do find him to be rather stupid and disagree with his sense of morality. His music is fairly bland too.

Depends. I don't give a **** of they do smack or things like that, but if they, say, raped someone (like James Brown did), I have a problem listening to them.

Now that I think about it with an example of a band I actually do like; while I didn't start disliking their music I haven't payed for anything by Apoptygma Berzerk since I found out Stephan is a bat**** insane Zeitgiest type.

i dont rly care if the guy is a ****. ill just get his music free. if i like the band and they r cool ill pay for it.

I'll only buy albums based on if it's actually WORTH the money that I pay for it.
I actually just bought a Smiths album yesterday. That cyst Morrissey didn't stop me.
