Kevin Michael "GG" Allin (born Jesus Christ Allin; 1956-1993) was an American singer, songwriter and record producer, who performed and recorded with many groups during his career.

There's no other eay to put this, GG Allin was a lunatic. I would put a picture of him up on this site, but it would most likely get reported and flagged since most of his photos he's either bleeding all over the place, showing off his explicit tattoos ("Life Sucks Scum F***, F*** you with a drawing of a middle finger under it), or naked and harassing a fan at the concert. Allin would wear nothing but underwear or sometimes nothing at all as he sang for his Hardcore Punk band, but no matter the band concert, GG Allin would always be fighting ruthlessly with fans weather the liked it or not. Allin promised his fans that he would commit suicide live onstage at one of his concerts, but he died offstage from a drug overdose in 1993. GG Allin is the definition of hardcore, and that's the way he liked it. - Bboymakinwitthefrekfreak
Gwar, often styled as GWAR, is an American heavy metal band formed in Richmond, Virginia, United States, in 1984, composed of and operated by a frequently rotating line-up of musicians, artists and filmmakers collectively known as Slave Pit Inc. GWAR is a crazy band already. The band is made up of giant monsters with balls hanging from their chin that clam to have come from an alien planet in space that revolves around heavy metal music. GWAR is basically like non gay, hardcore Kiss. At concerts, there's a tradition to kill a hated famous person as violently as possible. Over their long history of senseless, awesome deaths, some of the most notable ones have been:
Snooki
Adolf Hitler
Barrock Obama
Justin Beiber
Marilyn Manson

Sarah Palin (eaten by a giant space worm)
