Performances

A less-typical The Pointlessness fan

The Pointlessness are, among other things, notorious for their bizarre way of performing. Huge masses of fans enter a massive room and all doors are shut and locked when the show begins. During the performance, everything is completely shrouded in darkness. This way the band can kidnap fans without anybody noticing. The fans are to be used in a variety of experiments like anal elasticity and endurance of Carrot Top's comedy act. People that disappear are considered "chosen ones", they are granted the honour to learn the secrets of the darkness. The rest are sent home with cookies and a carton of milk at the end of the show.
