In the truth is stranger than fiction department.....A Tampa band named "Hell on Earth" is protesting assisted-suicide laws. To prove their point, they will feature a live assisted suicide onstage at their concert this Saturday night in St. Petersberg, Fla. If you can't attend in person, don't worry, you can watch it on the internet.

.... the suicide show will be played before a "select few people" at an undisclosed location in St. Petersburg on Saturday and be shown live on the band's Web site. ....[Band Leader BillyTourtelot] would not disclose any details about the terminally ill person or say how the person planned to kill himself.

He said the point is to raise awareness that physician-assisted suicide should be legalized in Florida. Tourtelot said he is not worried about the legal ramifications. Violating the new city ordinance is punishable by up to 60 days in jail and a $500 fine. A Florida law already makes it manslaughter, a felony, to assist in a suicide. But Tourtelot insists the band is not assisting the act.

"This person will be doing this self-deliverance totally by themselves, on their own accord," he said.

The band is known for unusual stage shows. A past show featured the band grinding up live rats in a blender.
