Wild Things: Ingenious Sub-genius

I wanted to find an image or a video that could succinctly communicate the uninhibited, unleashed hyper-evolved weirdness celebrated by the Detroit Subgenius Thing next week...

This might work...

Barefoot in the windpipe-coughed wilderness of Detroit, using your stringed scepter and ceremonial drum to do an acid-rain dance... Caveman Woodman & Bam Bam Moss - pure and raw and raw and pure - a Hulk-like flex focused into three-chord glory and stripped-kit kickers. 

But then there's the Amino Acids and there's Carjack. Behind their masks are minds keen on the inherent energy and imagination required to render a properly baffling rock-show - be it surf-punk from Saturn or spaced-out-garage-boogie from Pluto - 

While The Disinformants and All The Wild Children hold down the psychedelic-soul side of things, shredded into a metallic salad of varying grades of avant-garde indie-rock flavors.

Downtown Brown, for crying out loud!

There's a time and a place for "Johnny B. Goode" and all that poppy Beatles stuff, there's a time and a place for catchy "Born To Run" ballads...
But it is not this time.

This show is a reminder:
Rock should be...can be...and needs to be...
Weird.
Wild.
Almost frightening.
Dynamic.
Daring.
Strange.
Loud.
Loud.
Fast.
Weird.
...........But not savage.... Not regressive... Not primitive...
Just pure.
And weird.
And loud.
