GG Allin Live At The Gas Station hours before his passing
Wikipedia GG Allin s last show was on June 27, 1993, at a small club called The Gas Station, a punk venue located inside a former gas station at 194 East 2nd Street in Manhattan. In a firsthand account by Michael Bowling, the show ended after three songs, when a melee broke out. Allin ended up outside, leading a group of fans through the neighborhood. Bowling continued his recount of the evening after the show. After walking the streets for almost an hour, Allin eventually went to Johnny Puke s apartment. There, he and others continued to party and use drugs. Along with Johnny Puke, Allin ingested large amounts of heroin, on which he overdosed and slipped into an unconscious state. Sometime in the early morning of June 28, Allin died from the effects of his heroin overdose. Later that morning, Puke noticed that Allin still lay motionless in the same place where he had left him. Allin was pronounced dead at the scene. He was two months short of his 37th birthday.
