1. I'd be happy if they'd just stick to John Cage's 4'33"

2. Wouldn't that entail spitting on the audience
and punching people in the face at random?

3. Someone should do Garbage Dump
It's not that bad...but...not really GG's song...is it? }(

4. GG Allin's work is far too refined for the likes of American Idol.
Seriously.

5. Most of 'em can't sing that fast
Witness this modern art masterpiece...

Between them tripping over the chorus and the introduction to the piece, there'd be no way they'd get it out.

It might also be fun to see them sing a John Valby song...such as the oh-so-sweet "Was it You?"

Was it you that did the pushin?
Left the stains upon the cushion?
Footprints on the dashboard upside down?
Was it you, you slimy woodpecker
Who got into my daughter Rebecca?
If it was you, you'd better leave this town.

Reply:
Yes, twas I that did the pushin
Left the stains upon the cushion
Footprints on the dashboard upside down
But since I got into your daughter
I've had trouble passing water
So I guess that makes us even all around.
