If somehow I was able to unlock the secret of everlasting life, and blessed with the rest of eternity to sample the entire gamut of human experience, I still think I'd give this Pitbull concert a miss.

I could read everything, see everything, and do everything - and yet the boredom produced by having extinguished life's seemingly illimitable possibilities wouldn't be enough to make me want to watch this utter dross. Frankly, infinity isn't time enough to waste on it.

Which bright spark thought the middle of a four-day show needed an interlude of a two-hour concert? It was utterly interminable: three 'artists' I'd literally never heard of, dancers dressed like chess boards, and a song about traffic. Still, Pitbull is at the height of his cultural releva... oh.

Runner-up: The entire pre-show.

I can't knock it as a means to keep the insufferable Dean Ambrose off the main show, but the whole thing was entirely unnecessary, and a bit of a slap in the face to the performers relegated to it.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
