GG Allin & The Murder Junkies - Savage South: Best Of The 1992 Tour
This NYC punk lunatic made his name with notoriously wild live
performances that featured the gratuitous use of bodily fluids and
feces. Awesome. This DVD collects performances from Allin's 1992 jaunt
through the southern states. PS: I highly recommend the documentary Hated: GG Allin & The Murder Junkies,
which summarizes the high and low lights of Allin's career. The disc
also includes Allin's performance at an East Village club the night he
died. The gig lasts approximately 10 minutes and ends in a total riot.
The camera then follows Allin and his friends as they troll the Lower
East Side for drugs. Later that night he OD'ed and died. The movie was
directed by Todd Phillips, who went on to direct Old School, Road Trip and Starsky & Hutch.
