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?

Edinburgh FringeI went to the fringe this year, for a number of days. The atmosphere was great, the street performers (have to be funny and entertaining or they don't get paid!) were fantastic and some of the pubs are top. However... some of the shows that we had to pay for - fuck me! Absolutely appalling. Students/amateur comedians that had little or no idea how to engage an audience and spent a lot of time just noodling about with strange songs and movements adding nothing to their set, story or message. I'll go again, but never pay for another show...
