G.G. Allin was one of punk's most notorious performers. His extreme antics on stage gave him an infamous reputation and his dangerous habits offstage led to an early death in 1993. G.G. was a Lancaster native and is now buried in Littleton. For much of his career, he played with The Jabbers. The Jabbers are back together with a new singer and are performing this weekend in Manchester for the first time since 1984. We'll talk with two of the Jabbers- Chris Lamy of Portsmouth and Alan Chapple of Pembroke- about punk's endurance and lure, even for the middle-aged crowd.
