Liszt used to break strings regularly at his concerts. He often had one or even TWO spare pianos so he could finish the concert... I guess you would be sick at HIM 'mistreating' his instrument that way too? 
Did he break them by dancing on them or just by striking the keys very hard?!?!? ... And yes, I would be upset with him, the same as I would be upset with Townsend, Joel, Jerry Lee or any other 'jack-ass' who destroys a musical instrument "because they can" and because they are not paying for it ...
My parents taught me something at a young age - a long time before Aretha was singing about it ... that was R-E-S-P-E-C-T ... for people and for property ... mine or anyone else's ... and it is something that is slowly but surely disappearing from our world ...
