Mia is the best female punk vocalist ever, rip girl. As for the people being disrespectful on here, this is the reason i am almost secretive of my love for The Gits. I love their music and I do not even think of Mia's death when I listen to them but alot of people have a morbid facination with her and I take great exception to that. When people ask me who my favorite band of all time is I say "i have a lot of favorite bands" But my one and only true love of bands is reserved 4 The Gits!
Heard of this band back in the day but never actually HEARD them. I loved grunge/punk as a college/high school kid (still do). Tragic story all around. The heroin was so prevalent, it was almost a cliche. Did they ever catch the murderer? I'll check on that since I'm sure that info is out there. X was my favorite band back in the day, and certainly X is one of the top 5 bands of all time, although that is purely subjective. Thanks for the post.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
the gits were pure and passionate and dirty and addicted to heroin and their music all sounds the same and the band was musically limited. So the lead singer got murdered...y was she hanging around with crazy mthrfkers? BFD
You think "It All Dies Anyway" and "Spear & Magical Helmet" sound the same? You need your ears checked, sweetie. What band do you consider to NOT be "musically limited"?
You're trying to blame the murder victim for the murder? That's impeccable logic right there. Mia never met her kill before that night, so your logic makes no sense.
You can't write out "motherfuckers" or "big fucking deal"? Laziness or false belief that it's less harsh if you remove the vowels? You're 45; grow up.
I am not an expert but I am not ignorant on this band. I saw them in 92( i was 29 what can i say)...i know the history of the band and the tradegy so gofuckyourself...maybe I was harsh earlier and apologize if it bothered anybody. what is pathetic is your blind allegiance to something you probably werent even aware of when it was happening...probably shitting your diaper at the time... asshole
The reason your comment pissed me off is because like the previous reply stated it seemed as if you were blaming the victim, which made me think you weren't aware of exactly what happened. you're certainly entitled to your opinion, I just think it could have been stated in a better way. My response could have been better too. Anyway, I will retract my hateful comments toward you...they accomplish nothing and there is far too much of that shit on youtube
The first comment was blaming the victim -- the following comment was just backpedaling. grewupin70s probably ran off to Wikipedia after being called on it. Seeing a band once clearly doesn't make someone an expert on the band. Nor does pointing out the errors signify that someone has a "blind allegiance" to a band...
It's also hilarious how a 45-year-old acts like it's some big insult for pointing out that someone on YouTube will most likely make them appear ancient in comparison.
Excellent comments prophetofog, I'm just not into trading insults with people so I decided to just let it go....Thanks for posting your Gits videos, they are very much appreciated
Hey my uncle gave her that shirt. We were just talking yesturday and he was like "i had this girlfriend she was so nice and i never knew she could sing then she just belted out in the car one day" then he told me she was in the Gits, it sounded familar but i had never heard them cause i love early 90's rock, but i never actually heard them until now and they are awsome!! LOUISVILLE IS AWESOME!
I never knew the gits at the time they were around (too young sorry) But great music like this will never die. It will never be forgotten. And be played untill i'm as deaf as my nanna.
The Gits hit me like a ton of bricks when I first heard them. They're are just so fucking awesome.
