I don't think there are many folks with even a passive interest in Manson or serial killers in general who don't know he was a failed musician. Hell, the creep even managed to make friends with a couple of the Beach Boys, before he got all “kill the world” and what-not.
Marko – I'm a Ripper-holic as well. Never been to any of the locations – hell, I've never even been to the UK – but the Ripper case has fascinated me since I was a teenager.
Yeah Lon, it's a really great mystery and very interesting and there are new clues coming up all the time, but it also gives an insight into the lives of the ordinary people of the east end in Victorian times. I'm not a massive fan of London, as a plasterer I've worked there many times but I like to visit Whitechapel and get a feel of what it must have been like
I knew this too!! I have the GNR album that the Manson cover is on. Sorry for saying but it's not a bad little song. No idea what Manson's version is like but Axl does a good job.
