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?

"Roundabout Town" - and the building of stupid crap upon them...Where I live, they built a stupid blue obelisk on top of a roundabout that has shimmering lights on the top of it (like some sort of scary obelisk deely off the film 2001).
And this gyroscope deely on another roundabout next door to White Moss Garage.
And lastly, this thing on another roundabout not too far away with peoples faces on it. F**k knows why.
This was built using some sort of euro funding or lottery money ploughed back into the community nonsense. They should have used the money for some useful purpose, not sticking pretentious b*ll*cks on top of roundabouts to bemuse motorists.
Think this example counts....
