I find it a great deal more entertaining when it is done by a band that cannot really afford to smash guitars, because at least that means they probably did it because they were drunk and it is going to seem like a hell of a bad idea the next morning.
When you can actually afford to calculate broken guitars as a touring expense, it kind of removes the edge.

I think that if you want to destroy your equipment, you had damn well better be creative. Apart from the fact that it hurts me to see someone destroy perfectly good equipment, it's also pretty clich?.
I liked what the guitar player of mclusky did at the end of the show though: He simply grabbed and tore out the strings with his bare hands. Apart from the fact that this creates one hell of a noise, I bet it also hurt pretty bad and it looked a lot more entertaining than someone smashing a guitar.

i work in a pub, and theres a venue/gig room downstairs. band played, no promo oor anything like that = no fans, no people at all.
they smashed up their guitars at the end of their set. dunno why. i shouted at them anyway, because they threw it into a chair. i did not want to have to tidy up broken chairs.
so i'm a nay.
plus, why smash it up when it could go to a deserving and loving home? (by which i mean me, of course.)

Seems like a pretty boring way to say "I'm EXTREME LOOGITMEEE!!!" just rok out and all will be well and I'm sorry you're mad at you phallic guitar symbol. Go hug your dad.
