I just saw a CL ad, Steampunk Band forming.

What kind of music would they play? Victorian metal?

Too bad the quality is shit and it's cropped weird.

So it is pseudo-Celtic electronica?

Don’t forget about steampunk j-metal:

Probably not the right era....



But those chicks are pretty hot....for dudes

 

[Gary Blanchard]

This has been interesting. I am aware of the whole Steampunk scene, but never thought of it in terms of a musical genre.

Wow, I didn’t even know that rococo metal was a subgenre. Gotta admire the conviction of those guys—I put less time into playing than they put into getting dressed.

Goddam I love Lindsey Sterling.

That's fantastic! Would be great if it could work the strings like a B-bender or something.

Rush's stage gear for the past few years has been really fuckin cool.

Geddy's Bass "Amp"

Yes, it's actually a working popcorn machine

Rush’s stage is a collection of steampunk washer/dryers that shoot flames and make popcorn? Holy fuck Canadian weed must be amazing.
