i have to agree with you on that....having enjoyed both at some point in my life....interesting that in many ways the two were reaching the same goal...the idea of destroying self and creating "self" as art....but one is regarded as important era of performance art.....the other junkie shock.....go figure

My knowledge of both is limited to what I've read, although I've a few punk friends who will share apocryphal stories about GG Allin.
So, there are musicians who've taken performance art to the self-destructive route; what about those who've gone the abusive route? Aside from random acts (chucking chairs or feces are the audience), have any gone the route of systematically abusing the audience?
The only one I can think of is Boyd Rice, who apparently took an exceptionally powerful spotlight to a concert in Italy, wherein he would slowly move it around the crowd, giving people momentary, painful blindness.
