Possibly new photos of the Mechanisms at the 2014 Nine Worlds Geek Fair, courtesy of their Facebook. Looking into trying to find recordings but it doesn’t look like it was recorded.
According to the email list archive it was a performance of back-to-back OUATIS and UDAD.
Edit- It was a back to back performance of UDAD AND HNOC (Thank you Kofi!)

I occasionally get people in tags saying that they listened the mechanisms because of me/some cool art they saw, and it got me thinking...
Please reblog for reach and give me specifics in the tags, I'm super interested

Would send this in an ask but it is NOT my main, but I have a bunch more images of this event i found on Flickr if you want them? Idk if you've seen them already
there is one mechs gig that confuses me, travis, so thoroughly and deeply.
so.
the 2018 Victorian Time Travelers Ball Gig
Photos in link.
This gig, on flickr, is titled "The Mechanisms 2018"
It is a bifrost incident show, evidenced by this event listing that details the following:
The Mechanisms, an immortal band of space pirates, will be performing their fourth album, the BiFrost Incident, described as “a cocktail of music, myth and mayhem set aboard a locomotive shot at faster-than-light speeds through a man-made wormhole”.
but. but.
on the site, there are no shows listed in 2018.
the event listing does not have a date. or year. it does have a location. but whenever i search "victorian time travelers ball" i get other, DIFFERENT steampunk groups. none of whom had ANYTHING in 2018.
it perplexes me. it confounds me.
they were there. we have photo evidence. who are these three mystical steampunks. help.

Honestly I think a lot of the character stuff is kinda subtle unfortunately, but:
- live performances on YouTube have a lot of organic character interaction. I think that's kinda my main source of what they're like
- there is literature on the mechanisms website, that have some cool stories about the mechs
- Some songs, some of the Tales To Be Told songs especially, are about the mechanisms specifically and have good lore. I know you said you listen to the music though.
- the museum tour is also really cool, even though it doesn't have all of them
- honestly, a lot of stuff can also be gotten through wiki, tumblr posts, mechanisms tweets etc. Mechs stuff can get really obscure really quick so deep diving is almost nessecary
Good luck! 👍👍If there's anything else feel free to lmk
Someone please tell me how to get into the mechanisms. I listen to the music but absolutely do not know anything about the lore or the characters. Where do I start??

*bursts forth from the Mechanisms Twitter page with screenshots clenched between my teeth* a humble offering for the greatest fandom on Tumblr. There's shitposts. There's lore. There's some posts that are actually from Tumblr. There's a lot of them. Don't say I didn't warn you.
Tried to mostly only pick ones that I haven't seen around and about, but I make no guarantees on novelty.

Hot take but I think Raph would make a fantastic DM? Like, I know Jonny is the narrator but he'd get bored by it I think.
Raph is that good good mix of generally calm, nerd autistic and chaotic that makes just the best game known to man

i forget that since the live UDAD album isnt available for sale anywhere (though it CAN be acquired most easily through the transcript drive here) people might not have heard this excellent bickering

fucking LOVE how in dttm for the lively song underworld blues jonny doesn't have anything to do for most of it so he just vaguely conducts and dances and plays air guitar and pretends to play piano when raph has a little piano bit making intense eye contact with her he's so silly
screenshots of some of my favourite moments below the cut!
jonny air guitar evidence
sidenote marius' hand gestures in his bit are great also
jonny pretending to play trumpet in ivy's bit lmao
jonny being like. hey the hell are you doing. when orpheus is giving this emotional performance about their lost love and ashes is picking at their teeth lmao

going through the archived email broadcasts and I am once more filled with the desperate longing to have been a mechs fan at the time. I want to go to the art bar hnoc premiere :(
I did manage to dig up the bandcamp entry for the recording of that concert however. will it let me listen to it all from there? who knows
ALSO. HIGHLY IMPORTANT
DOES ANYONE HAVE RECORDS OF WHAT ANY OF THESE LOOKED LIKE

Also just found this!
This one's got a little bit more official art!! HNOC probably has my favourite album art and it's nice to put it all in one place together!
