I agree, it's pretentious nonsense that only exists so people can pretend to like it and scoff at the unsophisticated proles who call the spade a spade.

- Bud 5y agoHow many John Cage fans have you actually had a drink and talked with?
- robonerd 5y agoA few? 4'33" is well known enough that I've heard it brought up in conversation a few times in my life. Is this meant to be a round-about "your friends aren't sophisticated" putdown?
- Bud 5y agoI think it's quite clear from your comment above that you were the one engaging in putdowns. I was simply responding with an honest question. I wanted to know how many actual John Cage fans you've had a real conversation with. Because if you ever had, I don't think you'd have the attitude you displayed above. And no, hearing 4'33" brought up a few times doesn't really count.
