There’s Steampunk music too, Professor Elemental is one of the big ones.

I watched about 30 seconds of that before I turned off , and that was 25 seconds longer than I would have if there hadn’t been some eye candy in the background.

That's Chap Hop!

The chap he is having a dig at in that video is Mr B The Gentleman Rhymer, his biggest competitor in the genre.

You can see them both in the video above.

Here is a Chap-Hop History.

I liked it, I've watched a couple more of his too.

I'm convinced the gentleman rhymer is Matt Neal of touring car fame!
Quite good fun all this stuff!

The music isn't exactly the sort of thing I'd stick on a playlist in the car but it's a bit of fun and made me laugh a few times so more power to them. I love some of the quirky design that's come from steampunk and couldn't imagine it all kicking off after a few port 'n' lemons down the sea front. What's the point in life if we can't have a bit of harmless fun and allow others to do likewise?

Exactly. It's keeping all these well to do middle agers off scooters and out of knife crime.

Always amuses me when I see people pouring scorn on all forms of cosplay before then heading off to the Goodwood Revival in the appropriate attire. wink

I've been into Steampunk for a few years now - it's just a good excuse to dress up a bit, meet a lot of like-minded people and have a good time. The group I'm in has members from kids up to the oldest at over eighty

Some of the people are extremely creative with making costumes, gadgets etc, It's all light-hearted and quite Monty Python at times, with tea duelling, teapot racing etc

Google image search is working well. "Kay Morgan".

Probably best not to do that at work, though. Mildly NSFW.

The Chap Magazine seems to be nothing but Steampunk (and vaping) these days frown

I thought 'Steampunk' was cool exposed workings of things like skeleton watches and engines like the one pictured below that I bought recently...I didn't realise weirdos dressed up in stuff? Every day's a school day.

The pic you've posted is about as Steampunk as a kid on a moped is a Hell's Angel. hehe

If you like Kay Morgan then you may also like Sister Sinister who incidentally appears with Kay Morgan in one of the google images search results.

But latex-clad lovelies aren't really Steampunk though.
