Once Regan Hatfield (performing under the name American Devil Sound) started doing his thing, though, I understood the absolute necessity of the painted actor-dancers in appropriately scandalous costumes*. Without them, Regan’s performance and subject matter might be too much to absorb; he tells a story via music and vocals while ricocheting from one spinning canvass to another with all manner of paint-broadcasting tools. To manage this dual action painting/vocalization, dude went ahead and developed a microphone on a sliding apparatus that would make Sam Raimi piss his DIY pants.
