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?

Wedding PhotographersMy brother got married a few weeks ago. Compared to mine and Mrs Doktorrob's wedding (£97.50, registry office), they paid around £5K to get married at High Melton (it's part of Doncaster College), of which £900 was for the photographer.
He turned up, wearing a black turtleneck, with a dinner jacket. He had a silly little goatee. All he was missing was the beret. He lived up to it as well, taking 1,485,587 photos, moving people around to 'catch the moment'.
The best bit was when my 13-month old son managed to embed his camera in the grass by pulling his tripod over. I have never seen anyone move so quickly.
