The Trouser Thread

What is going on here please? Im trying to work it out and struggling

performance art piece, where she invited members of the public to touch her boobs.

“My name is Milo MoirĂ©, I’m a performance artist, and I stand here for women’s rights and sexual equality,” MoirĂ© is heard announcing through a loudspeaker in the video below. “We have the same sexual appeal as men have,” she continued, “but we decide when we will be touched, or not. Today, you have the chance to touch the box for thirty seconds and feel free. It doesn’t matter if you’re a woman or a man.”

I’m aware of her yeah.
Hence the pic.
Is she Swiss?

Ah the old “it’s not what it looks like love, its performance art” line, got it.

People should be made to name three performance artists before they get a feel of some tits.

Doesn’t look very covid friendly.

Yes she is but I think she lives in Germany now.

That is really weird indeed! You should sew one.

i’m wearing some at this very moment, there’s a double loop on the left but not on the right and it’s made me realise that i didn’t ever consider people would do their belt that way round, seems alien to me

That one Balkan lady who’s 70+ but looks 40 and may or may not be some kind ofSatanic witch. (Marina Abramovic)

That American tit Paul McCarthy who runs around with his cock out throwing mustard everywhere.

And, for extra edge points, Herman Niitsch, he of ‘Meat Joy’ fame AKA an excuse to have an orgy in a butcher’s shop.

Do I get to feel your tits now?

I once came into an exhibition PV midway through a performance. I didn’t realise that just upstairs was a guy on all fours trembling under excessive weight that was on his back until he collapsed. I just saw my mates at the front and started telling them how I was late cos all day I had been on a mad comedown and had the worst shits ever, nearly shit my pants on the way here kinda convo- turns out everyone upstairs watching this epic and sensitive performance piece had my hungover dialogue echo over it the entire time and a dude quite literally said to me ‘yeah you completely ruined it for everyone’ which was pretty funny

Badly Drawn Boy stopped his song to tell me to get out of his concert at the Edinburgh Corn Exchange about 20 years ago. I was only there because I had to be for the sake of getting a lift to Edinburgh and I was probably talking quite loudly about how shit it was. Everybody cheered when I left and I had a much better time sitting in the car smoking weed.

When Badly Drawn Boy tore up his Mercury prize money cheque to show the man his music couldn’t be bought but was then seen sellotaping it back together once the cameras were off him. Haha, what’s he like, huh?

Hahah @buildafire that’s quality. You’ll like this one- went to go see OFF! when they had first come out and Keith Morris stopped the gig to call out my mate and another guy who were fighting in the crowd to be like ‘fuck this we have unity in here’ and made the other guy buy my pal a pint even tho my mate was the one being a cunt. So bad but so great.

Ian MacKaye stopped a Fugazi show at the Art School when somebody threw a pint. Made the dude get up on stage and the whole place was silent for a full couple of minutes while he mopped every last drop up, with audience and band glaring at him.

Got the audio of that show, and they left it all in, even the silence.

I once went to see Jello Biafra doing a spoken word thing. I drove but took a mate who was expecting some sort of gig. Anyway he got completely shitfaced, and in the small library-quiet room started grabbing me to say how much he loves me etc. then when he got bored of that started heckling the bemused looking Dead Kennedy’s frontman with “play Holiday in Cambodia you fat cunt”. Great night!

Corpse Hands once decked some trustafarian twat at a G!YBE gig who was clearly fucked on pills dancing like a cunt and whipping people with his white dreads.
After several warnings from several other audience members, Corpse got the red mist and punched him directly in the face.
A cheer rose from the audience, the bouncers removed said twat and vigorous back slaps were awarded to Corpse.
I don’t think the band noticed.
