Outrageous music and performance

How outrageous does an act have to be today to be successful ?
First there was the suit and tie performer  and then the tie came off. Then  the shirt collar loosened.
Then the shirt came off. Ultimately there was Jim Morrison's alleged exposure.
When you question  this evolution in music you run the risk of being considered conservative or uptight.
Well, that may be true but maybe there is an ebb and flow regarding artistic tastes....as there should be.
So, there is no right or wrong.
So what am I saying......Regardless of the performance, it's art. And there are two components to art. One is the performance  and its effect on the audience. The other is the business of art and there always has been and always will be a business of art.
The David Hamilton Project is revolutionary in terms sharing the business with the patrons or fans.
It's mutual FUN.
