W.W.V.D?

What would Vaudeville do? Steampunk has garnered a lot of press lately, and it seems to keep on a constant rise from the first time I ran upon it. The NY Times has a pretty cool article on a group of guys that perform under the name, The James Gang. The modified every day items and pictures to accompany are what makes this a worthwhile read. These guys seem to take a light Edwardian stance on the venture into the Steampunk direction, unlike some that immerse themselves into Pynchon-like sci-fi, adventure garmets and gadgets.
