Andy Warhol attended the 1962 première of the static composition by La Monte Young called "Trio for Strings". Uwe Husslein cites film-maker Jonas Mekas, who accompanied Warhol to the "Trio" premiere, claiming that Warhol's static films were directly inspired by the performance. In 1963 Young had joined Warhol's musical group The Druds, a short-lived avant-garde noise music band, but finding it ridiculous, quit after the second rehearsal. In 1964 Young provided a loud minimalist drone soundtrack to Warhol's static films "Kiss", "Eat", "Haircut", and "Sleep" when shown as small TV-sized projections at the entrance lobby to the third New York Film Festival held at Lincoln Center.
