	Darby Crash
		Darby seemed to be important to so many people on so many different levels, at least that's the way it seems now that he's gone.
		Darby Crash set the mark for balls out performance, almost singularly defining LA punk, and his suicide was the last encore.
		Darby's solo billed gig August 27 at the Starwood (with the superb Alleycats opening) was a contained simmering melee, but the Germs' reunion/farewell gig at the same club last December 3rd was a success on several levels.

	Germs - Crash and Burn (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Twenty years ago this week, Darby Crash, lead singer of the Germs, killed himself in a premeditated, drug-facilitated suicide that many believed was meant to ensure his own legend at age 22.
		To mark the anniversary of Crash's death, some friends--many of whom, as it happens, are writing books about the singer--recall the day in 1980 when they learned that both Crash and Lennon were gone.
		Darby cut himself sometimes, so there was blood, but you couldn't tell, it was such a mess.

	[No title]
		During his life, Crash (Paul Beahm) was a little bitty legend, and since his death that legend has grown, for a couple of reasons.

	Darby Crash - Biography - AOL Music
		Few rock "singers" (the term is used loosely in Crash's case) pushed themselves to such dangerous and fearless extremes as Crash did at just about ever show he performed.
		Crash soon adopted an on-stage persona that would make Iggy Pop proud -- indulging in confrontations with audience members, obnoxious and drunken behavior, singing off-key and off-mic, and not above smearing peanut butter on himself or cutting his torso mid-performance.
		But Crash's intake of heroin had reached deathly proportions just as their recording career began and he split from the band to visit England for an extended period in 1980.

	Amazon.com: Lexicon Devil: The Fast Times and Short Life of Darby Crash and the Germs: Books: Don Bolles,Adam ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Since his heroin overdose in 1980, Darby Crash has become a symbol of punk irreverence, but his posthumous fame has tended to overshadow the seminal work of the punk band he fronted, the Germs.
		Crash's fans were known for their cultish reverence, and Crash himself is shown to be a self-conscious misfit who used psychological ploys to enlist followers.
		Through this lens, Germs vocalist and songwriter Darby Crash appears as both a taunting jester of the burgeoning West Coast punk scene as well as mischievous if not malevolent pied piper leading impressionable thrill seekers into would-be decadence of the type predicted by Oswald Spengler in The Decline Of The West.

		Darby shot up the girl and pinned a note on the wall that said: ''Here lies Darby Crash'' with an arrow pointing to his head, and spread himself out like a cross.
		Suicide is always a failure and Darby's death was doubly so, as John Lennon was murdered the next day, something that kept the news of his suicide out of the press for almost a week.
		Darby's friend Melissa told him the funeral was only for Punks and ''punks don't have beards'' and everybody sneaked out without him.

		The thing that was the bitchenest was the original folder Darby created that had all the lyrics hand written, this folder was thick.
		The room next to the bathroom was Darby's where his mom said that he went and got a lock so that he could lock the door so no one could bother him while he sat in there for hours and wrote lyrics.

		On-stage, their gigs bordered on performance art, with Crash in full Iggy frenzy, diving into the crowd, adorning himself with whatever foodstuffs the audience provided, wearing less-and-less clothing, all done while the band cranked out noisy spasms of simple, but effective, rock noise.
		By the time Crash filled his veins with heroin in 1980, the Germs were pretty much over.
		Crash's behavior had become increasingly unpredictable, he was spending time in England, and began preforming as a solo act upon returning to L.A. Consequently, the valuable recorded work in this final period is spotty, but, thankfully much of it shows up on the definitive Germs release Germs (MIA) The Complete Anthology.

		I did around a dozen sketches that included other members of the band, but I like this sketch focusing on Darby the most of all.
		The lyrics of front man Darby Crash were pure poetry and the force and brilliance of the recordings they left behind still inspires awe.

	Will Success Spoil Darby Crash? The Germs Live at The Continental, NYC
		In a town where people make the term “type-cast” a career goal, winning the role of Darby Crash in a Germs bio-pic, then having the surviving members want to take you on tour, must have seemed like an all-expenses-paid trip to punk fantasy camp.
		At its best, the tour stands as rare musical victory for Darby’s other suicide victims, the surviving, underappreciated musicians in his shadow—not to mention a long-overdue communal wake for the inner-Darby that crawls and curses within each of us.
		But it was ironically Shane West who inadvertently threw a spotlight on the one thing wrong with this Germs reunion when he allowed an audience member to grab the mic and sing...and it actually sounded better.
