Pretentious bollocks
Possibly 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?

Chicago
I'm an Engineer and so have a slightly logical view of the arts.
Every time my mother comes down to the 'smoke we have to go to the bloody theatre, so we went to see chicago, except it wasn't, it was the dances of the choreographer from Chicago.
Arse.
So relieved the interval arrived, stood at the bar, asked dear mother "so I'm no quite sure- I thought I was following the story line for the 1st 10 minutes but then I lost it" to which a random punter in at the bar informed me there was no storyline, it was just dance.
Embarrased? no, just sore at the loss of the cash on the tickets.... shitesville!
p.s. the eggs are a revelation - EGGScellent!
