"Wild Things"...the concept came from Maurice Sendak's "Where the Wild Things Are" ...dark forests and wild creatures lurking behind the trees... or in the shadows of the parks or bars on the Queen West strip.  Shades of "Snackers", a long-running weekly Tuesday night of music and video at the now-defunct Vatikan ,,,where we coined the phrase Queer St West.  A night that was so far under the radar the plant life was white and the fish were translucent...

And now the question emerges... Where Are the Wild Things?  ...and what makes 'em wild?
