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?

Contemporary OperaMy one and only foray into this genre was Doctor Ox's Experiment, booked only because Atom Egoyan was directing.
The Colyseum did not have air con and it was summer, we spent 3 hours sweating, not having a clue as to what was going on on stage. I managed to get a programme at the interval, and althoug it shed light on the story, I still did not have a clue as to what had gone on stage during those 3 hours
