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?

I WAS the pretentious bastardIt was a battle of the bands here in the states, me and some friends made a "band" about a week before the thing. We did sound checks for about 15 minutes, started playing, stopped and staged a fight with our drummer, who left. Then we all switched around instruments as an excuse to why we sounded so terrible, then just played some chords and improved lyrics about people in the audience. Everybody hated us, but we thought it was hilarious because we f*cked with the whole battle of the bands thing my school was doing.
