Pretentious bollocksPossibly the worst event I ever went to was an evening of turntablists in London. The lights went down, the first guy put a cymbal onto a turntable, dropped the needle on it and left it making screeching noises for ten minutes.
When the lights came up, half the audience had snuck out.
What's the most pretentious rubbish you've ever been to see in the name of art?

Tones and CleoWent to see Antony and Cleopatra at the Wharf Theatre in Sydney many moons ago (maybe 1993), and it was pretty good. I was just getting into a bit of Shake, we didn't do Shakespeare at my tough nut highschool.
So, it's looking good, I'm enjoying the play, when onto the stage comes the lass playing some soldier who has to have a long convo with Tones, telling him how the battle was going, etc. And she was deaf.
How she new when to come in and "speak" remains a mystery to me. As, indeed, does anything she said.
Emadex - That photog looks like it's done near the Museum in Carlton Gardens. Is it?
