Newspaper Articles

Hi Ho G.G. Allin,
Thank you for your letter which arrived tonight. I can understand you wanting to be called by your stage name but for prison records your name has to be what you show on your I.D. as they will expect to see something with your I.D. that I put on your visiting slip. So first thing first Donald gave me two address for you let me know which one is proper as that’s the way you will be listed. So that I can get it approved. Here are the ones he gave me. Kevin M. Allin, P.O. Box 54, Hooksett, N.H. 03106 and the other 41 Beechhill Dr. Manchester, New Hampshire 03101. Please give me which one appears on your drivers license. By the way I just answered Donald's letter tonight and I had already talked to him, but your letter answered some of the questions I put to him, mainly whether or not you want to visit me so as to be a name dropper and exploit me or come to meet me as a friend. Your letter made that clear, so I see no problem.
By the way just like you like being called G.G. Allin please get the spelling of my name right, its GACY and there is no "E" in it you fucked up the first time on your envelope. Everyone is trying to add letters to it. So fuck pay attention and don't let it happen again. I hope that Don told you I kid around so take it that way.
Regarding what I need, they don't allow it in here besides they wouldn't let it in anyway. Lux is a pen-pal of mine for five years now but he helps me out by buying my paintings. I notice you mention that your interested in having one done. I enclosed an oil painting list what your looking for is listed under commissioned portraits, unless you want something like what you look like for the stage then it would just be a commissioned paining see above the other one. The photo you send would have to be in color so that I can get the colors right all the information is listed. You mention portrait so the price is listed with the instruction its the same for all.
Please get me the correct information so that I can get you on the visiting list and also let me know when you plan on coming down. In so far as what can be sent in Donald knows what I like to read, any good dirty novels xxx porno at its best, no color magazines as most time they will stop them and return them to the sender.
Look forward to hearing from you, hang in there, by the way your statement is interestingly positive, and shows your an individual go for it.

Later,
(signed)
John or J.W.

VICTIM'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Myself, Mr. Allin and Mark arrived at my house at approximately 10:45 p.m., Sunday, April 9, 1989. David, Roy and Bob arrived at my home at approximately 11:30 p.m. Mr. Allin, myself and Mark went to Capitol Market and bought some alcohol. I later on went to Stop and Go on East University with Bob and bought some beer. I went on to consume, what I imagine to have been, quite a lot of alcohol. I went on to become completely intoxicated. At some point between approximately 3:00 a.m. on Monday, April 10, 1989, and approximately 8:00 a.m., Monday morning, I was handcuffed. I awoke or came to, to find myself lying on my bed on my stomach. My hands were bound behind my back. My shirt had been removed and was torn up. It was wrapped around the handcuff chain. I had been violated. This may or may not be of interest to you, but I feel it is pertinent. The thing about this episode I remember most and what I was reactionary to was that the situation I was in was somewhat secondary to the immense panic that I was feeling about my left hand. I could feel that it was swelling up. Any movement caused immense pain to my wrist. I am left handed and the one thing in my life I've always done and hoped to do was write. Obviously, in retrospect I was not in the least bit control of my situation. But I thought by acting as though I was unaffected by what had been done to me, the excitement of those who did this to me might fade. At this point I was just trying to calm myself down enough to outfox these guys, so to speak. I became vocal and was obsessing my anger over this in terms of "O.K. I relinquish the fact that you guys had your fun with me but enough is enough, my God Damn hand could become damaged if someone doesn't get these handcuffs off from me." I remember Mr. Allin coming into my room and he led me to believe that Roy, who owned the handcuffs, would not give him the key. He seemed to have been interested in trying to get the handcuffs off me. But any time he would touch the handcuffs it would hurt me really bad. I was I was becoming more and more angry and frightened. I became completely hostile. Eventually Roy came into my room and unlocked the handcuffs. I was calm for perhaps three minutes, long enough to get dressed. Then I went downstairs to where Roy and Bob and Mark and Dave were sleeping and I begun to yell at them. Obviously, I had no idea of the type of guys I was dealing with. I actually thought that what had been done to me was meant more as a "joke on the drunk girl." I thought I could somehow show them the futility of their prank because I didn't care. I only was concerned that out of a joke I could have been seriously injured. I didn't understand at that point that serious injury to me was the intent.

What anyone interested in this case must understand is that from the point when I came to find myself handcuffed and violated I really lost sight of the entire situation. I saw it as them having control over me for a certain amount of time and my mind became interested in one thing only. Regaining control. I would not at any point from then on admit to anyone that I had lost control. I knew it. Boy did I know it. But I wouldn’t let them know it.

About 11 a.m. on Monday, April 10, 1989, myself, Bob and Dave went to Bill's Coffee Cup for breakfast. Bob and Dave basically skipped out on their bill. I paid. We went to Capitol Market buying more alcohol and returned to my house at approximately 12:30 p.m. I consumed more alcohol. Acquaintances of mine began to come over at about 2:00 p.m. It was a party-type atmosphere at my house. Well, at about 3:00 p.m. I just went off. I remember just losing it. I was angry, I was embarrassed. I was ashamed of what happened the night before. I was confused. I had become aware that these people in my house meant absolutely nothing to me. That I meant absolutely nothing to anyone. I became incredibly hostile again. I was beginning to see the entire situation as no less than discussing. I was realizing that no one cared about anything at all other than getting drunk and high and talking nonsense. This conflict inside of me really began to build. I had invited these people to my home. I became aware that I had relatively little interest in them and people were coming over to my house with no regard to myself but to see these guys who were worthless. So I set out to disrupt it. I began breaking things. I became completely aggressive. But my aggression was not directed toward anyone other than myself. I was not picking fights. I was not aggressive toward anyone in particular I was fighting with myself.

At approximately 3:30 p.m. Mr. Allin decided to "calm me down". I was sitting down in a chair and he hit me in the face. A bit stunned, I protested verbally. He hit me again and broke a bottle of beer over my head. I think it quickly became obvious to most everyone that a bad situation was developing. Some people left and others chose to stay and witness the spectacle.

Mr. Allin just like everyone else in my home had a choice to make. If my behavior was unpleasant, disagreeable or even frightening I can understand that. I had made absolutely no pretense as to my behavior on Monday afternoon. However, if at any point Mr. Allin found my behavior to be objectionable, he should have left. Instead, he chose to absolutely terrorize me throughout the next twelve hours. The injuries I received spoke of a very specific desire and intent. Mr. Allin methodically and successfully subjected myself to his desire to harm and defile me. I became witness to one victim of Mr. Allin's sadistic tendencies. Mr. Allin said things to me on and after April 10th that made it very clear to me that he meant to cause me great amounts of pain, suffering and disfigurement. Throughout Monday evening and night Mr. Allin exhibited violence upon me in an episodic fashion. Each episode seemed to entail a specific theme. Each time Mr. Allin would enter my room it would begin the same. I would struggle with him until he would physically dominate me. At which point he would put his hands around my neck and choke me into a semi-conscious state of exhaustion. Mr. Allin did not seem to want me to be unconscious. Once somewhat alert Mr. Allin would verbally indulge me with his intentions.

I remember Mr. Allin being atop me and he was shoving cigarettes into my mouth. He had one hand up around my throat and with it he would choke me. When I would gag he would put them into my mouth. I would spit them out at him and he would choke me more. He would hit me about my head.

Eventually I would pass out.

While atop me again Mr. Allin had his hand on my neck and in the other he had a large glass of liquid. In the glass there were a lot of mashed up cigarettes. He would choke me and when I would gag he would pour it down into my mouth. He kept saying I should drink it because I like to smoke and drink so much. I clenched my teeth really tight even when he was choking me so he poured it all over my face.

I remember Mr. Allin being atop me and he was teasing me with a lit cigarette. He would put it close to me face and then pull it back. Saying, "Oh you really think I'm going to burn your precious face?" He tried to put a lit cigarette into my mouth. He had his knees on my upper arms so I couldn’t get him off me. I wouldn't open my mouth. He burned my right check twice with a lit cigarette.

I remember Mr. Allin being atop me again choking me. I was rather limp. He began cutting me. He was cutting at my chest. He said it was beautiful. Like painting a picture. He wanted my breasts to bleed more. He gouged at my left breast with I think a piece of broken glass. When it began to bleed more he said again how beautiful it was. That my breast looked like crying eyes.

I remember him cutting my thigh. He was sort of digging at it. He was using this black metal dagger. He kept going over it.

The last time I remember Mr. Allin atop me he was choking me. I was done. No more fighting. I was very calm. I shut my eyes and at that point I was sure death was a good possibility. I remember Mr. Allin slapping at my head. He kept saying "Wake up, wake up you fucking bitch wake up." I just drifted off.

I woke up sometime later. I was lying on my bed. My arms were up over my head. I can only think that I had been unconscious because I could not feel it. I could hear him. I looked over my shoulders and I saw Mr. Allin. He was kneeling on my floor but toward my leg. In one hand he had a white cigarette lighter, in the other hand he had a candlestick with a candle in it. The candle was lit. I saw him spit onto my leg and put the flames on my leg. I just starred at him. About 30 seconds later Roy walked into my room and said "G.G. what the fuck were you doing?" Mr. Allin looked at Roy and said "I am trying to wake her up."

That was it. He got up and walked out of my room.

About 45 minutes later the police arrived at my house. I would not let them in. I did not know what to do. At that point I couldn't really feel any pain. I knew a very terrible thing had been done to me. I knew Mr. Allin and his band were leaving on Wednesday morning. I really thought it best to just remain calm until they left and then deal with the situation. I felt as though Mr. Allin had done what he did to me on a "whim", if you will, I was apprehensive of what he might do should he have a reason to hurt me.

OFFENDER'S VERSION OF THE OFFENSE:

I met Leslie M. Morgan at one of my shows in Detroit. I had never seen this girl before. She came backstage where I was getting ready and she tore her shirt off unzipped her pants and she jumped on me telling me how much she admired my work and that she wanted to marry me. I meet a lot of girls so I didn't take it too seriously. Then after we were done with our set I was bleeding and she came back to clean me up and asked me to marry her again. She also danced for us on stage that night.

After the show we left town. I didn't think that I would ever see or hear from her again. But about 1 week later I received a letter from Leslie still insisting she wanted to marry me and that I could come and camp out on her doorstep anytime I wanted. So I was scheduled to do 2 shows in Muskegon, Michigan, on April 9 and 10 and Leslie said she would come up to see me. When she got there I was sleeping at the Ice Pick (the club). So we decided to get a motel room a bit out of town so we could be alone. We stayed there 2 nights. The 1st night we got back after the gig we both were drunk and got drunker, I spread peanut butter on Leslie and performed oral sex with her while I masturbated. That was all that went on the first night.

The next day we woke up and we were bored. So we had a masturbation session to pass time. Then we went across the st. to a bowling alley for a few beers. Then I played again the next night. After we returned to the room for our 2nd night we were both a bit drunk. We were having a great time. I took a can and bent it. I then told Leslie I was going to cut her breasts lightly. Just enough to draw a little blood. Nothing deep or stabbing. Then I licked the blood off her chest. She was never in any danger and she told me it was okay to do it. If she put up a fight the neighbors could have heard because the walls were paper thin. But she never complained. She had seen me do it to myself and she knew exactly what she wanted. She wanted me to do it so she could brag to her friends. I never once hit Leslie or burned her with cigarettes or made her drink anything! That is absurd! I have witnesses, then we were scheduled to play Toledo Ohio the next weekend on Fri. So she invited us to come and stay at her house in Ann Arbor for the week and we could play at her house. We thought it was a good idea. So off we went. When we got there we all sat around and drank and listened to records. Leslie was drinking and smoking pot and she told Roy to handcuff her to the bed. So he did. I then went in and had oral sex with her and she urinated on me while I masturbated on her. We all continued drinking and Leslie was complaining about her wrists hurting. I even tried to get the handcuffs off her when I could not find Roy. When Roy did arrive to take the cuffs off she yelled at him to fuck off. But finally he let her out and Leslie and I past out and fell asleep in her bed. The next morning Leslie got up and took my bass player, and guitarist to breakfast. After breakfast Leslie bought a bottle of whiskey. When she returned back to her house she drank it and bitched because the rest of my band didn't come in and masturbate on her face. The she proceeded to knock all the windows out of the house with her hands and feet until she got to one with plexiglass. Apparently she had done this sort of thing before. Then she fell and hit her head on the table. (I had witnesses) I believe she did more damage to herself than I ever did. I was still asleep. I was woken up by the noise. My band wanted to leave but she insisted we stay. So Roy and I took Leslie to her bed to sleep it off.

After about 5-6 hours Roy and I went to check on Leslie to see if she was all right. She still seemed drunk. Roy and I both lit a lighter and put it under one of her legs to make sure she was responsive. It was a complete accident that her leg was burned and nobody dripped wax in her wound. She had long pants on. I'll admit that using a lighter was not the smartest thing we should have used to wake her. The only reason she was in the hospital so long is because she refused to go to get help for 4-5 days. After it happened we all told Leslie she should go and get her leg looked at. I was deeply concerned because I liked Leslie. But she refused and got up and drank more with us.

When we were laying beside each other that night, the police came to her house because of all of the noise. She informed them that everything was fine and to go away. We ended up staying a couple more days and she helped us get a show at the college. She even came to the show. We stayed another night. The next morning (Friday) we were getting ready to leave for Ohio. I gave Leslie a kiss and she informed me that everything was fine and that she still wanted to marry me.

DEFECATING ROCKER SUED FOR $2 MILLION
Milwaukee Sentinel. March 14, 1989. Unknown author.

A Milwaukee nightclub owner Monday filed a $2 million lawsuit in Federal Court against "shock-rocker" Kevin M. (G.G.) Allin, who allegedly exposed himself and defecated on the club's stage.
John Koshick, owner of the Odd Rock Cafe, said Allin, of Oak Lawn, Ill., has caused his club to lose business since the March 1 incident.
Allin, 32, was arrested at the club during his performance with his band, the Toilet Rockers. He was cited with disorderly conduct by the district attorney's office.
Koshick said he did not know about the aspects of Allin's act that led to the arrest.
The suit alleges Allin's conduct has put Koshick's liquor license in jeopardy.

PUNK ROCKERS
Unknown source. Unknown date. Unknown author.

Police in Orlando, Florida, say two punk rockers have been arrested after a Monday night show that included urinating and defecating on stage.
Kevin Allin and Donald Sachs of G-G and the Murder Junkies are charged with exposing themselves at the Club Space Fish Cafe.
Police Sergeant Bill Mulloy says the two band members ate feces and threw some at the audience. Mulloy calls it "one of the most immoral and disgusting things" he's ever encountered.
Police also say Allin smashed a bottle on his head and ground in the shattered glass. They say he ran naked through the crowd, splattering blood as he went.
For his part, Allin says club owners knew what he planned, and knew he'd perform naked. Club owners haven't commented.

PUNK ROCK ACT SKIPS COURT DATE
Unknown source. Unknown date. By: Bob Levenson.

Two members of a New York City punk rock band arrested last month at an Orlando nightclub for defecating and urinating on stage are wanted again locally, this time for missing court.
Band members Kevin Allin and Donald Sachs were released from the Orange County Jail within 24 hours of their Nov. 18 arrest without bail, in keeping with a jail policy that releases most people charged with minor crimes because of crowded conditions.
Now it's likely the two, charged with exposing their sexual organs, will wind up behind bars again in Orange County, a sheriff's spokesman said.
When they were released, Allin and Sachs were given papers telling them to appear in Orange County Court last week for their arraignment. Neither showed up, causing judges to issue new arrest warrants.

PUNK ROCKERS BUSTED FOR POOPING ON STAGE
Weekly World News. October 15, 1991. By: Jack Alexander.

A punk rock musician from the aptly named group, Toilet Rockers, dropped his drawers and defecated during a performance and tossed his feces into the crowd.
A jury in Milwaukee, Wis., convicted weirdo Kevin Allin, also known as G.G. Allin, 34, of disorderly conduct after viewing a video of his performance. He could be fined $1,000 and jailed for 90 days.
"He also threw a beer bottle into the crowd, acted like he was masturbating while wearing nothing but a loin cloth and dragged a woman up on stage and jumped her," said Prosecutor Michael Steinhafel.
The disgusting performance occurred two years ago at the Odd Rock Cafe, which is out of business as is Allin's rock band.
"We feel that Allin is a serious performer, and there's serious artistic value to what he does," said defense attorney Peter Goldberg.
Goldberg said Allin's behavior follows in tradition of other avant-garde artists who have incorporated excrement into their work. He cited Shakespeare, Aristophanes and Samuel Beckett.
"If this is art," Steinhafel said, "can Mr. Allin go rent a corner of the art museum and fling feces at people as they go by?"

MUSICIAN BOUND OVER ON ASSAULT CHARGE
Unknown source. Unknown date. Unknown author.

A rock musician accused of beating and burning an Ann Arbor woman after an impromptu University of Michigan campus concert has waived his preliminary examination on a reduced charge and been to Washtenaw County Circuit Court.
New Hampshire-born Kevin M. Allin told 15th District Judge S.J. Elden on Wednesday that he agreed with an arrangement made by his attorney, Assistant Public Defender R. William Schooley, with Assistant Prosecutor Larry Burgess.
Under the terms of that agreement, Burgees will dismiss the original charge of assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder and file the lesser charge of assault with a dangerous weapon.
In exchange, the 33-year-old Allin will enter a plea of no contest to the dangerous weapon charge when arraigned before Circuit Judge William F. Ager Jr. Conviction on that charge can bring a sentence of four years in prison or a fine of $2,000.
Allin was arrested in Illinois in September on a warrant. He is accused of beating and burning a 25-year-old local woman in her North Fourth Avenue apartment last April. Investigators said the incident occurred shortly after an appearance by Allin's rock band in the U-M's East Quad dormitory.
Witnesses said that during that concert, Allin stripped, jumped off the stage, kicked a woman spectator and hit a male student with a chair.

PAIR ARRESTED AT ORLANDO CLUB DIDN'T SHOW UP FOR COURT DATE
Unknown source. Unknown date. Unknown author.

Because the two are charged only with misdemeanors, and because they live out of state, the sheriff's office will not actively look for them, spokesman Jim Solomons said.
The warrants will be entered into a statewide computer available to all law enforcement agencies. If the two are ever arrested again or stopped for a traffic offense in Florida, police presumably would check the computer, find the warrants and hold them until they could be brought back to Orange County.
But that's about the only way Allin and Sachs likely will see an Orange County courtroom, Solomons said.
"We don't have the resources and it's unlikely the state would extradite them for a misdemeanor offense," he said.
Allin, 35, and Sachs, 37, performed Nov. 18 as part of the group GG Allin and the Murder Junkies at the Club Space Fish Cafe on Church Street in downtown Orlando.
According to people at the concert and Orlando police, Allin performed nude. The two also urinated and defecated on stage, consumed feces and urine, and threw both at the crowd. Allin smashed a bottle and ground glass into his forehead so heavily that he had to be treated at a hospital for bleeding.
The state Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco revoked the cafe's liquor license following the performance, but the club's majority owner has appealed that decision.
Neither Allin nor Sachs could be reached for comment Monday.

BAND LEADER CHARGED OVER STAGE ACT
Unknown source. Unknown date. Unknown author.

When does a stage act become obscene?
A Chicago rock ground called G.G. Allin and the Toilet Rockers presented police with that question Tuesday night when the leader of the group reportedly defecated on the stage, threw his feces at the audience and had a second band member urinate in a glass and drink it.
Police were called to the Odd Rock Cafe, 2010 S. Kinnickinnic Ave., about 15 minutes after the group began its bizarre act at 9:30 p.m. Police said that about 40 patrons witnessed the act.
Shortly after arriving, police were shown a video tape of the band's brief performance and arrested Kevin M. Allin, 32, of Midiothian, Ill. The videotape was made by a member of the audience.
Allin was charged with misdemeanor disorderly conduct. He was released from custody Wednesday on $500 cash bail.
A second band member was arrested on a charge of interfering with an arrest.
John Carter, chief city prosecutor, ordered the owner of the cafe, Jack Koshick, to appear for a license review hearing Thursday.
In a telephone interview Wednesday, Koshick, 33, said he wasn't aware of what the group's act would include when he booked the group.
Koshick said he stopped the show after Allin began defecating on stage. He said Allin became angry and began throwing things, including his own excrement, at the audience.
Versions of what actually occurred during the performance vary. But police said that part of the act included a stunt to which one of the group's three members urinated in a glass and drank it.
Koshick said eventually he "told the sound man to cut the power," closed the club and told people waiting outside the club for a later show that it had been canceled. He refunded the $8 admission.

G.G. ARRESTED BIG TIME
MRR News. December, 1989. Unknown author.

On September 9, 1989, 33 year old G.G. Allin, self proclaimed leader of the "most violent rock and roll band in the country" was arrested in Oaklawn Illinois upon discovery of several warrants for his arrest that had been issued last May by the Office of Wastenaw County Prosecuting Attorney William F. Delhey. G.G. was transported to Wastenaw County Correctional facility in Ann Arbor Michigan where he remains, unable to post a rather substantial cash bond.
The misdemeanor warrants of indecent exposure and assault and battery were in connection with an unscheduled performance by G.G. and his band the "Disappointments" in a University of Michigan dormitory. Witnesses told police that G.G. had masturbated, kicked a U of M woman student in the stomach and hit another student with a chair. A felony warrant was issued charging Allin with assault with intent to do bodily harm less than murder, stemming from a seperate incident in which police alleged that G.G. Allin beat and burned a 25 year old Ann Arbor woman so severely that she spent 12 days in the University of Michigan Hospital. According to police, doctors said the victim's extensive leg burns were the result of exposure to flame or extreme heat for a period of at least 20 minutes.
On September 20 G.G. Allin appeared in front of 15th District Court Judge George W. Alexander for examination on the charge of assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder. The examination was adjourned when R. William Schooley, a court appointed public defender who had spent more than two hours interviewing G.G., asked Judge Alexander for a delay so his client could be examined at the Center For Forensic Psychiatry at the Ypsolanti Regional Psychiatric Hospital. Assistant Prosecutor Larry Burgess had no objection to the adjournment and Alexander ordered G.G. Allin to submit to the examination.
G.G. Allin was found competent to stand trail and faces preliminary examination on the assault with intent charge on October 25, 1989.

GG ALLIN ON MORTON DOWNEY JR. SHOW
Unknown source. Unknown date. By: Billy Dare.

When word got out that producers of television's popular Morton Downey Jr. Show had invited raunch-rocker G.G. Allin to appear as a guest, the general consensus was, "No way!"
Everybody polled speculated Morton Downey Jr., who's built a reputation scorning "pabulum-puking liberals," and boasting a crusty, hard-nosed, right wing conservative attitude, was no match for rock 'n' roll's really bad boy, G.G. Allin.
But all waited with bated breath, wondering if, for once in his career, G.G. Allin would behave, or would he resort to his most vulgar onstage antics which, in their mildest form, include public masturbation and urinating on the audience.
"It's my guess the network people must think that (G.G. Allin's behavior) is all a publicity stunt. They probably think once he's on TV, he won't dare," said an acquaintance of the singer who asked not to be identified. "But you have to know G.G. to understand that the fact that he's on television is all the more reason for him to be gross."
The segment of G.G. Allin was invited to appear on was slated to deal with censorship of song lyrics. In addition to G.G. Allin, Neil Young was scheduled to appear.
Whereas G.G. Allin's lyrics, with songs like, "Teenage T---," and "I Wanna Rape You," are guaranteed to rate star-billing in the PMRC's worst nightmare, it seemed logical that he'd be invited as a guest on the show. All logic wanes, however, for anyone who knows or has seen G.G. Allin.
Apparently the producers were unaware of what they were getting into because, not only did they agree to have him on the show, but also paid for his transportation from Hooksett, NH to New Jersey where he was put up at The Seacaucus Hotel.
As it happened, G.G. Allin apparently couldn't wait for taping to begin his antics and, after arriving, completely trashed the hotel room.
A taste of G.G. Allin was all Morton Downey Jr., needed. Word came shortly that the latenight host no longer wanted him on the show. Thus, G.G. Allin was banned from still another venue.

ALLIN BRINGS TOUCH OF PSYCHOSIS
Unknown source. Unknown date. By: Bonnie Surfus.

Musical artist G.G. Allin will appear Saturday, June 17 at Arts Alive in Ybor City. Allin has received attention for his plea that his followers murder in his name. "I want all my people to murder someone in my name before I kill myself on October 31, 1990." G.G. explains why, how, and where he will allegedly take his life.
In a press release entitled "The Sacrifice" he says, "I believe that it is best to decide your own final end. I will not put my life in the hands of fate. We are not able to have any say in our birth, but we can decide when we want to die, and we should. Why hang around if you're ready. I will pull my own trigger. I've been playing Russian Roulette for a long time now, so I'm ready to break on through to the other side for good. I'm announcing my date with death for Wednesday, October 31, 1990, midnight. Somewhere in NYC. The stage has been my life, so I will take my life on stage. I will record one more LP to be released the following day. Welcome to my death."
Death, rape, violently sexual lyrics, the use of feces onstage, and a rebellious attitude are the traits that many have come to associate with Allin and his music. Some call it truth, however, some perceive this all as hype, feeling that Allin has taken the darkest aspects of life and manipulated them to his own promises.
Allin's words, which seem to support this thought, appear on one of his albums. "I hang out with Jim Beam and I do not record for popularity, I do it for myself only."
Does G.G. Allin, who has been called the Anti-Christ by some, really want to kill himself? Will he? Fans and foes alike may have to wait until next year to find out.
G.G. Allin appears this Saturday, at Arts Alive, 1619 8th Ave. in Ybor City. Also appearing with be The Roldz, Really Smelly Socks, Blemish on Society, and Norman B. The show begins at 9:00. Call 247-4392 for more information.

PUNK ROCK'S VIOLENT MAN FOUND DEAD IN EAST VILLAGE
New York Post. Unknown date. By: Matthew Flamm.

The most violent man in rock is dead. GG Allin, whose extreme brand of punk rock included defecating on stage and frequent fist fights with the audience, was found dead at 9:20 yesterday morning at 29 Avenue B, according to a police spokesman. Cause of death was not immediately known.
Allin, who lived in the East Village and whose full name was Kevin Michael Allin, was 36.
"I think it's safe to say he OD'ed," said the rock singer's brother, Merle Allin, who played bass guitar in his band. "Though with GG you never know."
Merle said that his brother, who played a last, brief set Sunday evening at the Gas Station, at Avenue B and Second Street, had been "partying all day and all night" Sunday.
GG Allin died as he lived. Backed by his band, the Murder Junkies, he had only gotten as far as the second song in his set at the Gas Station before he begun fighting with audience members. Technicians turned off the sound, ending the show.
According to witnesses, the rocker was at one point thrown through a drum set, and later smashed himself though a french door, emerging from the Gas Station covered in blood.
The crowd at the Gas Station should consider itself lucky. Two years ago, in Orlando, Fla., Allin was arrested after he defecated on stage and then threw his feces at the audience.
"He believed that he was the rock and roll messiah, and that he was trying to bring danger back into rock and roll," said Merle. "He was by far the most outrageous performer who ever hit a stage."
According to filmmaker Todd Phillips, whose documentary "Hated: GG Allin and the Murder Junkies" plays Thursday nights at the Anthology Film Archives, Allin had been arrested 52 times for his various on stage activities. He had also occasionally threatened to kill himself on stage.
Allin, raised in Lancaster, N.H., was also prolific as a rocker. He recorder 18 albums with different bands, among them the Jabbers and the AIDS Brigade. His latest record, with the Murder Junkies, is called "Bloodshed and Brutality For All," and will be out in September.

GG ALLIN ARRESTED
Unknown author. Unknown date. Unknown author.

Kevin M. Allin, known in the rock world as GG Allin, was arrested Sept. 9 and charged with assault to do great bodily harm less than murder.
The felony charge stems from what Ann Arbor, Mich. police allege was an incident in April where Allin allegedly beat and burned a 25-year-old woman in her apartment.
Following a court order that Allin be given a psychiatric examination, Allin told the paper, "I don't want an adjournment. I know I'm not guilty. I don't need to see a shrink. I want to go on with this, prove this is a bum rap," he said.
"Look, this woman invited me and the band to her apartment. She wanted us up there. She got mad because the whole band wouldn't come on her. She never objected to anything at the time," Allin was quoted as saying.
"He's into sadism and masochism," Ann Arbor Police Detective Mary Smith said of Allin. "He told me during an interview before arraignment that what he does on stage is all part of his rock 'n' roll performance. He said, 'My fans expect it.'"
Smith and police Detective Frank Hoy agreed that Allin's actions and lifestyle are among the most bizarre they have encountered in decades of police work.
"It's a weird case with a weird defendant," Hoy told the Ann Arbor reporter. "He's a strange one. He's knocked all his front teeth out hitting himself with microphones during acts. He's bloodied his head hitting himself with microphones. He beats spectators. He exposes himself."
"Allin claims he's going to finish his career on Halloween night in 1990 by committing suicide on stage and taking some spectators with him," Smith said. "Hopefully it won't be here."
Allin was arrested by U.S. Secret Service agents who had been watching him after learning that Allin had been writing letters to John Hinckley. When the agents ran Allin's name through the national law computer network, they discovered the assault warrants issued in Ann Arbor. He was then extradited to Ann Arbor.
Bail was set at $10,000.
Linda Perry of Muskegon, Mich., believing in Allin's innocence, has established a defense fund and has more information about Allin's case.
Letters to her or Allin can be sent to P.O.B. 0851 Muskegon, MI USA; phone number is 616-728-7181.

MUSICIAN SENTENCED IN ASSAULT
The Ann Arbor News. Unknown date. By: Roy Reynolds.

A rock musician was ordered Friday to spend 18 months to four years in prison for severely burning and cutting an Ann Arbor woman after she invited him into her apartment.
Although Kevin M. Allin pleaded no contest in November to the felonious assault charge, he claimed Friday in Washtenaw Circuit Court that the woman's burn injury "was an accident." His court-appointed attorney, Assistant Public Defender R. William Schooley, said "the entire case is bizarre... deviant."
Judge William F. Ager Jr., who sentenced Allin, remarked that "I understand there are lifestyles which this court does not understand."
Allin, 33, was charged with injuring the young woman so seriously by burning one of her legs with a cigarette lighter and cutting her that she required 12 days of hospitalization for skin grafts and other treatment.
Allin, who is from New Hampshire, claims to lead "the most violent rock and roll band in the country." He has described beating himself unconscious and knocking out his own teeth while on stage. He said Friday he feels "somewhat blackmailed." This is his first felony conviction.
He was originally charged with assaulting the Ann Arbor woman with intent to commit great bodily harm, after she invited him and members of his band into her North Fourth Avenue apartment. Prosecutors dropped that charge when Allin agreed to plead no contest to the lesser charge of felonious assault.
Immediately before Allin was sentenced. Public Defender Schooley said several untrue allegations were made by the woman when she testified on the day of his no contest plea and in a probation agent's report on the case.
Schooley said the medical reports do not support the woman's contention that Allin burned her in the back of her throat, dripped candle wax into her leg burn, and forced her to drink a glassful of cigarette butts in an unidentified liquid.
The woman made a victim-impact statement on Dec. 8 in Ager's courtroom, as allowed by state law. She said, "I am very, very sad. I feel very deep sorrow that humans can be so cruel..."
Judge Ager noted that his sentence for Allin is "slightly above" the minimum prison term of 12 months suggested in state guidelines. The judge said he is not punishing Allin for his lifestyle, but because he pleaded no contest to a charge that he is responsible for "burns that required hospitalization and skin grafting on her left leg, cuts on both cheeks, and half moon cuts around both breasts."

UNDER GROUND
Unknown source. Unknown date. Unknown author.

Kevin Michael "G.G." Allin, the self-proclaimed "most violent man in rock & roll," died June 28 in New York City at 36 of a drug overdose. A would-be "king of the underground," as he put it, Allin hurled his feces at audiences, punched out crowd members and held women at knifepoint, all to bring back "the danger in rock, which is dead," he said. He had always claimed that his demise would be onstage, preferably on Halloween and after he'd "taken a bunch of you with me." Allin had been arrested 52 times, and had spent the better part of the last four years in prison on charges of assault. His last local date, on May 21 at the Hong Kong Cafe, was canceled when Allin punched out the lead singer of the opening act, Duchess de Sade.
According to Merle Allin, the singer and performance artist's brother who played bass on his final U.S. tour, G.G. Allin had been "partying all day, doing coke" prior to a show at Manhattan's Gas Station, a sculpture bar on the Lower East Side. As was typical of Allin's gigs, the set lasted about 10 minutes, but his brother says, "You could sense it was kind of a grande finale." As the Gas Station crowd spill led onto the street and threw bottles at police, G.G. Allin made his escape to an apartment at 29 Aventure B. There, according to his brother, G.G. copped one too many bags to heroin in an attempt to relax for a visit to his mother in New Hampshire the next day. Allin was found dead the next morning at 9 a.m. According to Merle Allin, G.G. "had clearly been dead for about five hours. His back and chest were totally blue, and rigor mortis had set in to the point of where I couldn’t get the rings off his fingers."
Allin was buried in New Hampshire. At his request, he was laid to rest in his favorite outfit - a dog collar and a leather jockstrap - as two of his songs played. During his 13-year career, Allin recorded 18 albums and numerous videos (all of which are still available via mail order from Merle Allin at 214 E. 24th St., Apt 2H, New York, NY 10010) as well as a feature-length film, Hated: G.G. Allin and the Murder Junkies. I'd known G.G. since 1978, and despite his demented public persona, he was a gentle and likable soul if you got him in the morning before his first drink.

ASSAULT CASE AGAINST PERFORMER DELAYED
Unknown source. Unknown date. By: William B. Treml.

A felony assault case against the leader of a "violent" rock 'n' roll band who admires Charles Manson and John Gacy was adjourned Wednesday so that medical records can be obtained for a woman who police claim he burned and beat.
Kevin M. Allin, 33, who says he had beaten himself senseless with microphones, broken his bones and been hospitalized a dozen times while performing with his group "The Disappointments," appeared before 15th District Judge Pieter G.V. Thomassen for a preliminary examination on a charge of assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder.
The charge stems from a incident in an apartment on North Fourth Avenue in Ann Arbor last May where a 25-year-old local woman was beaten and received leg burns so severe that she spent 12 days in the University of Michigan Hospital Burn Center.
Investigators say the assault occurred at the time Allin and his band were in Ann Arbor to perform at the U-M's East Quad dormitory, where witnesses says he stripped, kicked a woman spectator in the stomach and hit a male student with a chair.
He is charged with two misdemeanors - indecent exposure and assault and battery - as a result of that incident.
During Wednesday's hearing, Assistant Public Defender R. William Schooley told Thomassen that the medical records of the 25-year-old woman are essential to Allin's defense.
Assistant Prosecutor Larry Burguess did not object, and Thomassen delayed the examination until Nov. 1.
During an earlier stay at the Center for Forensic Psychiatry in York Township, Allin was found mentally competent to stand trail to the charges against him.
He is in the Washtenaw County Jail on a $10,000 bond. A letter signed by Allin recently appeared in a national rock 'n' roll magazine in which the entertainer told of being held in jail and of needing money for bail.
In the letter, Allin said he is willing to sell for bond money a painting done by John Gacy, the Illinois factory worker now on Death Row for the kidnapping and murder of 33 young boys with whom he had had homosexual relations. Allin says he has visited Gacy and says the convicted killer is a "father figure" to him.
Allin was arrested by Secret Service agents in southern Illinois in September after he had made efforts to contact John Hinckley, who attempted to assassinate President Regan in 1981.

SLEAZE HITS LOW AT ANTENNA CLUB
The Memphis. November 27, 1991. Unknown author.

Since opening a little over 10 years ago, The Antenna Club at 1588 Madison has pushed the limits of what is loosely called artistic expression in punk rock music. It's a place where a guy with a spike haircut and an earring or a girl with combat boots can feel at home.
Last Saturday night, November 16, it either nudged the standards for shock rock considerably lower or exceed them.
According to various accounts, this is what happened. (Club owner Mark McGehee said the details in this synopsis are "pretty accurate.")
The headline performer was New York punk rocker G.G. Allen, formerly head of a band called G.G. Allen and the Scum F--s. Allen's wilder antics include physically assaulting patrons and, at a Milwaukee concert in 1989, throwing human feces at them.
To put it bluntly, Allen grossed out the audience at The Antenna Club. He defecated on the stage, then appeared to eat it and spit at the patrons. Allen, who is the lead singer, also beat his forehead bloody with a beer bottle and put a microphone up his rectum. The drummer performed naked.
Patrons, who paid a $7 cover charge, stormed out of the club onto Madison. A witness who had been at the P & H Cafe nearby said he saw "three bursts of 15 to 20 people come out the door" around 10:30 p.m., forcing cars on Madison to brake or swerve to avoid hitting them.
Someone called the police, but the band had already left by the times a squad car arrived at 11:42 p.m. According the McGehee, "the show pretty much ended at 11:30."
McGehee said G.G. Allen in its milder forms is reminiscent of other punk shock groups such as the early Sex Pistols. He said other punk groups, including the Red Hot Chili Peppers, also sometimes do a nude set, although they didn't do one last time they came to The Antenna Club.
G.G. Allen will not be invited back to The Antenna Club, McGehee said, although "People would pay for them to come back. He's got everybody talking."
In addition to punk rock, The Antenna Club features a variety of musical acts from reggae to rock. On December 3rd, for instance, the featured band View includes three major league baseball players.
G.G. Allen's show was shut down last Friday night in Nashville's morning newspaper, police were tipped that Allen's show was sometimes scatological and violent. After police and building inspectors at the club, The Pantheon, the fire marshall finally closed it before the show could go on.
That may have left Allen and his band in a mood to let it all hang out, so to speak, in Memphis the next night.
Said McGehee, "You should have been there. It was history."

STUDENT RADIO STATION RETURNS DURING PROBE
Unknown source. Unknown date. By: Bonnie DeSimone.

An Oakland Community College student radio station went back on the air Monday as officials investigated a weekend incident in which material some considered obscene was broadcast.
WORB-FM, a 10-watt station that broadcasts at 90.3 over a two-mile radium from its base in Farmington Hills, was off the air from 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Monday by mutual agreement between the station and administrators.
"We met with the administration this morning, and no more statements or decisions will be made until later this week" when the radio's governing board will meet, said station manager John Moehier.
The station received two complaints Saturday afternoon when it aired taped music and a live interview with musician and convicted felon Kevin M. Allin, who performed under the stage name "G.G. Allin and the Toilet Rockers." The lyrics contained numerous sexual references and profanities.
Allin, a 33-year-old New Hampshire native, is serving a sentence of 18 months to four years at a temporary state prison in Adrian. He pleaded no contest to assault charges filled in Ann Arbor last year in the beating and burning of a 25-year-old woman.
WORB's Saturday afternoon show is open to non-students who want to bring in tapes and do their own programming, according to 21-year-old deejay Eric Dickerson, who is in charge of the show.
Dickerson said a man named Terry, whose last name he did not know, brought in the tape by Allin. Although Dickerson knew some material might be objectionable and asked Terry to give an appropriate warning, "He didn't disclose to me the extreme vulgarity" of the material, Dickerson said.
When Dickerson became aware of what was going out over the air, he issued a disclaimer and signed the station off a half-hour early at 3:30 p.m.
Dickerson, who said he should have screened the tape before allowing it to be played, said he has voluntarily given up his show until OCC administrators finish their examination of the incident.
"I didn't want to generate all this publicity," he said.
The show was not taped because the station's cassette deck was broken at the time, Mashier and Dickerson said. Neither wanted to comment on the exact content of the show.
Federal Communications Commission regulations prohibit obscenity in broadcasts, although courts have disagreed over what materials can be censored.
George Cartsonia, OCC director of college communications, said the college regards the station as a training experience that won't always meet professional standards.
"In any learning experience, some mistakes will be made." Cartsonia said, "This was an unfortunate one, but I should think a certain amount of leeway should be allowed to a student who is learning his trade as this student is."

NAKED PERFORMER KICKED OUT OF LOEB
The Washington Square News. November 8, 1991. By: Kimbery Seals.

A nude performer, who but bananas into his anus, threw a chair into the audience and broke a woman's eye-glasses was stopped by NYU Protection Services guards and escorted out of South Lobby in Loeb Student Center last night.
GG Allin, part of the Program Board's NYU Music concert, is known for using human feces, blood and even rape and masturbation during his performances, supporters said.
Many of Allin's fans claimed that this type of behavior should be expected and Allin should not have been booked by the Program Board if he wasn't going to be allowed to perform. At on point, supporters chanted, "Free GG, Free GG."
"Anyone who knows him, knows what he's about," said Brian Hunter, a friend of Allin who added that the performer was released from jail in July after serving a two-year sentence on assault and indecent exposure charges.
Hunter added that he saw Allin, at another performance, grab the head of someone in the audience and forced them to perform fellatio on him.
Tom Hunter, a musician and friend of Allin, said "his music is for freaks, faggots, drunks and junkies."
"He's a really fun performer who has been a legend for over ten years," said Eric Swenson, an NYU employee.
Thumper, a fan who started a collection in case Allin needed bail money, said that "GG is God. The only true hard core rock and roller left."
A member of the Program Board said that Allin was booked to film a documentary and that they were assured by the director that Allin would not do anything obscene. However, Allin told Protection Services that his director said, "it is a college atmosphere, you can get as crazy as you want, it will be great on film."
Schnirman said that it was a "one time incident," and that the Program Board is "always very cautious and will continue to scrutinize who we put on. The fact it happened is part of producing events."
Sgt. Ronald Songen on NYU Protection Services added that although the problem may have been a miscommunication between the parties that booked Allin, "indecent exposure is indecent exposure."
According to Price Garland, field supervisor for NYU Protection Services, the show was stopped around 8:15 p.m. after Program Board supervisor Dave Schnirman was in South Lobby when Allin removed his clothes. Allin threw a chair that hit one person in the audience and just missed Program Board president Rebecca Heller's face. Schnirman asked the Protection Service officers at the show to stop the performance and notify the police.
He reportedly felt that Allin might endanger the audience.
"The program board is not into endangering, we're into entertaining," Schirman said.
"I am shocked to see such a reaction from such a so-called liberal college," said Linda Trevino, a School of Continuing Eduction student.
During the show, Allin also took a woman's glasses and then stomped them on the floor because she didn't give him any money, she said.
The woman filed a complaint but did not press charges.
According to Songen, Allin had paid restitution to cover the price of the glasses and was not arrested.
Allin signed an agreement to never return and was escorted out the back exit of Loeb by Protection Services and yelled out, "F--- the police, smash the system, f--- this place."

MUSICIAN PLEADS NO CONTEST TO ASSAULT
The Ann Arbor News. November 18, 1989. By: Roy Reynolds.

A rock musician from New Hampshire pleaded no contest Friday in Washenaw Circuit Court to a charge of felonious assault in the burning and beating of a woman at her Ann Arbor apartment last spring.
Judge William F. Ager Jr. accepted the plea from Kevin M. Allin, 33, after the woman who accused the rock band leader took the witness stand and described "humiliation and violence I still at this point cannot comprehend."
Allin protested, saying "I don't know why she's doing this." His no contest plea will be treated the same as a guilty plea when Ager sentences him Dec. 8. Allin faces a prison term of up to four years or a fine up to $2,000.
The woman spoke for several minutes in a monotone when Assistant Prosecutor Brian L. Mackie asked her to describe her experiences on the night the incident occurred. She said she had "previous involvement" with Allin and members of his band, "the Disappointments," before she invited them into her apartment after a rock performance in the University of Michigan's East Quadrangle.
For several hours at the apartment on North Forth Avenue, she said, Allin performed such acts as "putting his hands around my throat... (he) burned me with cigarettes... had me drink from a glass of liquid in which he had put many cigarettes..."
"Mr. Allin cut my skin in a manner very savage and rough... Cutting my breasts. He told me it was like painting a picture... I was completely resigned that my fate could well be death..."
"Mr. Allin knelt by my bed with a cigarette lighter and a candle. He burned my leg and dripped wax into the open wound... He very calmly looked at (a band member) and said 'I'm trying to wake (her) up.'"
As a result of the incident, the woman said she was a patient at University Hospitals for 12 days, including five days in an intensive care unit, receiving treatment, including skin grafts.
In response to questions from Allin's court appointed attorney, Assistant Public Defender R. William Schooley, the woman acknowledged that in early April, she visited Allin at a motel in Muskegon for two days and invited him to bring his band to Ann Arbor. She also said that on April 11, she initially refused to speak with police and gave her name as "Smith" when she was admitted to the hospital.
When he asked if she also told hospital authorities she was injured by "three black males," the woman replied vehemently "that is not true."
Prosecutors originally charged Allin with intent to commit great bodily harm less than murder, and dropped that charge in return for his no-contest plea to the lesser charge of felonious assault.
Allin told Judge Ager "I somehow feel that I'm getting tried for my reputation, not my crime."
He said he has no previous criminal record and asked Ager to reduce the $10,000 bond or allow him to gain release by paying 10 percent. The judge said his request will be considered after probation agents study Allin's background.
Allin told a News reporter in September that he leads the "most violent rock and roll band in the country" and is an admirer of Charles Manson and John Wayne Gacy. Manson is serving a life prison term in California for a series of murders including that of the actress Sharon Tate, while Gacy is a death-row prisoner in Illinois for kidnapping and murdering 33 young boys.

ROCKER'S VENTURE 'OVER THE EDGE' EARNS DISORDERLY CONDUCT CHARGE
Unknown source. Unknown date. By: David Doege.

For 30 minutes Wednesday, shock rocker Kevin M. (G.G.) Allin explained to three curious listeners in the district attorney's office how slicing up his body with glass, exposing himself to a crowd and defecating on a stage was an art form.
With scabs on his forehead, bite marks on his arms and chips on his teeth, Allin shook his head in disbelief and said he couldn’t understand why police arrested him.
"I acted out my lyrics, nothing more, nothing less," Allin said. "I'm just showing people reality is there. It's there on my stage."
An assistant district attorney didn't buy Allin's explanation and charged him with disorderly conduct for the wild show that he put on Tuesday night at the Odd Rock Cafe.
Ten feet away, in a conference room across the hall, two veteran homicide detectives were dealing with another type of reality: trying in sort out clues from a murder.
"Just think," one of the detective said, nodding his head in Allin's direction, "Years ago, you'd go to a circus, a man would stick his head in a lion's mouth and people thought he was bizarre."
"Now that guy in there, he is bizarre."
Allin, 32, of Midlothian, Ill., was arrested about 11 p.m. on Tuesday at the rock nightclub at 2010 S. Kinnickinnie Ave. after a performance with his band, the Toilet Rockers.
Allin, who has performed throughout the nation and recorded 12 albums, proudly says he aims to shock and disgust his crowds.
Police were sent to the club Tuesday, after someone felt Allin crossed the line from entertainment into lewdness.
John M. Baker, the attorney for club owners John C. Koshick, said Koshick had no idea Allin was going to perform the acts that sent many audience members running for the exit.
Koshick was facing trouble of his own Wednesday.
He was cited for allegedly violating the state's liquor laws by not maintaining a book listing customers who were allowed to consume alcohol after their age had been questioned.
During Wednesday's review of the raid in a small conference room, an assistant district attorney, wearing a neatly pressed white shirt and tie, sat back with his arms folded.
A police sergeant, wearing a clean blue uniform and black boots stood at the door.
Allin, with long stringy brown hair, a black Keith Richards T-shirt and dirty black jeans, explained that his arrest was a mistake.
"It's theater," Allin said, resting his heavily tattooed arms on a desk that separated him from the prosecutor.
Allin said the scabs on his foreword were from beating himself with the microphone.
The bruises on his face were from beating himself while the audience of about 50 looked on.
"If people are going to come to our shows, they've got to have a strong mind and stomach," Allin said, a hint of an East Coast accent in his voice showing his New Hampshire roots. "If people are sensitive, they'll take one look at me and leave."
Allin said his second performance Tuesday might have gotten off on the wrong note and disappointed some in the audience. He was forced to take the stage alone initially and recite poetry.
"I got up on the stage when my band was up the street drinking," he explained.
As the performance progressed, however, he played some of his music, then generally abused and exposed himself.
Eventually, he admitted, he went a bit further, performing an act that most people found repulsive.
"I've done it before, but I don't do it at every show," Allin said. "I don't want to be predictable."
The prosecutor looked straight at Allin as he finished his explanation. The sergeant stood in the doorway, unmoved.
"Sometimes I go off," Allin said finally. "I go over the edge."

UNDERGROUND SINGER CLAIMS LEWD ANTICS KEEP ROCK ALIVE
The Star. April 13, 1989. By: Phil Rockrhor.

"The end is the end, and when I'm dead, to me that will be the end of the underground until somebody else can come along at take it a little further, which I don't see happening."
So says rock singer and song-writer Kevin "G.G." Allin, 32, currently of Oak Lawn, who claims he will commit suicide in a performance Halloween night, 1990, in New York City.
Allin has been the toast of various media for a few weeks, since his arrest last month for disorderly conduct at a club in Milwaukee.
Johnathon Brandmeier, morning disc jockey for WLUP AM and FM radio in Chicago, has interviewed him twice on the air in the last month, including last week in the station's studio (although Allin says that he was locked in a room and forced to talk via telephone to Brandmeier).
Allin says USA Today has written about him recently and that he appeared on "The Morton Downey Jr. Show" last summer. He says he turn down a request to appear on "The Phil Donahue Show."
"The thing that bugs me is that everybody says I'm a publicity hound," Allin said in an interview last week. "But it's not an act. It's the same way I live my life. The demons just seem to come out on stage."
Allin is of course referring to his live stage show, which consists of a variety of sometimes lewd, generally offensive physical acts. At the very least, Allin is known to cut himself and beat himself with the microphone."
"Rock 'n' roll performances are too safe," Allin says. "I'm gonna leave the stage with blood all over me."
While he considers his unique contribution to rock 'n' roll history, Allin concedes that others before him have performed similarly violent and sexually suggestive acts on stage.
Allin cites Jim Morrison of the Doors, Iggy Pop during his days with the Stooges and the MC5 as influences of his live performances. "Growing up I liked the people who sort of always threw the monkey wrenches in," he said.
Musically, he says the artistic connections date back to Hank Williams and Jerry Lee Lewis ("10 times better than Elvis") in the 1950s, Morrison and Jannis Japlin in the '60s, and the Sex Pistols and the Dead Boys in the '70s.
Allin believes the various bands with which he has played since starting his career in 1976 deserve a place in that chronology.
"We’re there, but nobody wants to admit it," Allin said. "We did many of the same things as the Sex Pistols, but we didn't get any credit. In the '80s, it would be G.G. Allin."
The singer, who is a native of New Hampshire, moved the Oak Lawn eight months ago after living in New York and Boston. "I moved out here because there were five warrants for my arrest in the East coats," Allin said, revealing traces of his native accent.
For the next 30 days, Allin will be living on the road during on a tour that will take him to Detroit; Toledo, Ohio; Pittsburgh, Philadelphia; Albany, N.Y.; Boston; New York City; and New Haven, Conn.
The tour has put on hold a performance slated for a local cable TV channel in Matteson.
When he returns, Allin plans to move from Oak Lawn to Chicago to record what he says is his 14th album, his third for Homestead Records.
On May 13, he is scheduled to play two shows at Medusa's 3257 N. Sheffield Ave. in Chicago, with his local band, the Toilet Rocks. He said the first show is an afternoon all-ages show.
"But when I do two shows, it's best to come to the first one, because the second one doesn't usually happen," he added.
Allin says he is bored by the current "underground" rock 'n' roll scene. "I see nothing going on, nothing scary," he said. "I don't see people leaving the clubs with broken bones."
His intent is to shock or disgust people who attend his shows. "I see it more as confrontation between the audience and the performer," Allin said. "I want to bring reality to the stage. I want to definitely offend people."
"The purpose of rock 'n' roll is to be rebellious. It's not a company thing. It's not supposed to be commercial. To me it's for the outlaws. If you're a singer, on stage you should be portraying what your life is.
While critics suggest he is a media monger trying to make a buck with his outrageous antics, Allin insists he is totally sincere.
"I feel if you believe in something strong enough, you should be willing to die for it," he said. "I think people thought that G.G. Allin would go away after a while, but it's 12 years later and I ain't going away until 1990."
