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?

Indie "rockers"Went to an indie night at a local nightclub. The few bands on weren't too bad (including the Morphines mentioned below, didn't seem too bad when I saw them, but they were probably too pissed up to be pretentious). But gawd, the way half the guys on stage dressed was stupid. They were basically wearing anything that looked retro and knackered. But was obviously brand new. One guy's seriously torn-up jeans still had the freakin' price tag on. Most of them looked right tits too in their tweed jackets and public school style blazers and tatty jeans trying to look cool. The one thing I hate about non-comformists is they all dress the bloody same.
