Are you asking seriously or just trying to make a point? Probably the latter, since you decided to go ahead and put the pretentious-guy quotes around the word fascinating.

In what sense is that "fascinating"? Just sounds sad to me.

Hated is awesome. Like Alex said, it doesn't matter whether you love, hate or
know nothing about GG Allin. It's a fascinating piece. Also worth checking out
is the bootleg of GG's final show, taken just hours before his death. A few
songs are played at some NYC venue. Looks more like someone's garage than a
proper club. The show gets shut down and GG proceeds to walk down the street
buck-naked before some crusty punks find him some clothes. It ends with him and
said punks jumping in a cab, leaving the cameraman to watch as they drive away
and that's where it ends. Apparently, what followed was he went to someone's
apartment, shot heroin and died.

Cool, cheers for this, Oliver.

On a completely random note that will probably only appeal to Oliver, I was
bored last night so ended up picking the newly-released (?) "special edition" of
Todd Phillips' amazing documentary, "Hated: GG Allin & the MurderJunkies"
(complete with new interviews).

If you've never seen "Hated," I can't recommend it highly enough. Whether you
hate GG or adore him, it's just a great, hilarious and bizarre film. Seek it
out. But -- as you can probably guess -- it's not for the faint of heart/weak of
stomach.
