Below is the official release for the video of GG Allin's classic rendition of the Warren Zevon song Carmelita from GG's CD (and upcoming DVD) titled Carnival Of Excess out now on Ponk. This footage was shot in Tampa Florida in 1991 while GG was there recording Carnival Of Excess. GG asked that this footage be given to Todd Phillips for inclusion in the film Hated. We gladly complied. Now we are excited to bring you the video as it was intended by the producer and by GG himself.
Recorded in Tampa Fla. during the sweaty summer of 1991 while under the influence of extreme alcohol and more. These recordings were made to please no one.
