Death to the Mechanisms

[zaliachimera]

On Saturday I went to a concert in London! It was the last show of a band called The Mechanisms, who are a group of immortal steampunk space pirates who do storytelling cabaret.

And they were fucking awesome! They performed the Bifrost Incident, which is about... space Ragnarok! And some other songs from their albums. I cried a bit at the end when they recounted how they will die. Such fucking good music! I'm really glad I got to see them live before the end. So many people singing along. It was electric.

Jonny Sims does an amazing summoning of Yog Sothoth. Highly recommend.

And knowing they'd been nervous that no-one would come to the show, because they haven't done anything really in a couple of years, and then they sold out both the final show, and the *extra* final show they had to put on! I'm so glad we could give them a good send off.

Also I looked goddam cute! I am a queer space witch of the void!

Thank you! it was such a good show and a great night overall with friends!

Very cool! I love that corset, it's lovely!

[zaliachimera]

Thank you! I'm really happy with it. It has great fastenings at the front that make it actually possible to fasten on my own. Normal corset fastenings are a pain

That was great that they had such a wonderful sendoff and that you had an incredible time! ♥ You look amazing too! ♥

[zaliachimera]

It was so good! I'm really looking forward to the recording they did of the final show!

That is such a rad outfit, I love it! What are the details of the necklace? The flat rays are more than just straight bars, no?

[zaliachimera]

Thank you! I'm really pleased with it. The necklace is mother of pearl so it has some nice ripples in it.

Their rippling iridescence is glorious.
