[kj] GG Allin

[Mister Black]

Its shocking and distressing to be on the receiving end , I can tell ya , when i was about 10 we went for a day out to Chessington Zoo , We got to the Monkey enclosure and we were watching the Monkeys monkeying around , and the next thing that I knew was that I was sitting on the floor feeling a bit dazed , one of the monkeys had thrown a turd at me and it got me straight in the eye and it made me fall over . Completely ruined my day out .

Having a dump onstage isnt pop culture , I dont know what category that it falls under , but it doesnt fall under "pop culture ".
  What GG Allin did was to push the boundaries out , Elvis also pushed the boundaries out by seductively shaking his legs , David Bowie pushed the boundaries out by being a poof and wearing make up . Having a dump onstage is just a continuation of pushing the boundaries out . Marilyn Manson hasnt pushed any boundaries out, hes just cornered a niche in the market . Having dump on stage in front of a paying audience could be explained by the "paying " bit , he gains out of it , BUT paying to see someone doing a dump on stage is just odd bordering on the depraved............And why the hell did he not have one before hand?
