Kickin' Summer into Gear

It's summer, and I have some catching up to do! I dropped in a few places to see what's shakin' - and the music scene is always lively on the grid. I just got back from hangin' in New England and the Big NYC (and not talking about Lingual's The Roof - but that was one of my first stops when coming back in town).

So here's the music scene in pics.  Last night, I dropped into The Roof's pre-4th of July party - and enjoyed the usual exceptional line-up served up by Ling.   AMFORTE Clarity was stunningly beautiful as usual, with vocal cords that will melt your soul.  It was great to see Strum Diesel, who is working on a new music project - so glad to hear that and looking forward to it!   Lazarus Doghouse, folksy talented musician/storyteller, dropped in to listen and mingle.

Porter Paquot followed AMFORTE, and was her usual amazing self and so cute in her red gown with sparklers!

Also, I had the pleasure to catch rockin' Wayne Davis (WayneDavisRocks) at Sherie's Gaslight - that was my first time hearing him -

                       
and he definitely knows his stuff, a great musician who's been around in RL and SL.



Then, tonight I listened to the fab voice of Gina Stella, while saying hello to Blueron Clyburn, who just finished his set, at TwoMoon Paradise's Mer Garden. He's back home on the East Coast, after performing at this year's Chicago jam, organized by Anek Fuchs and Gina Stella.

Gina looked lovely as mermaid, and so did Blue (see past blog). Sher is back managing Gina. TerryLynn was in the audience. And the lovely TMP Owner Shiran Sabra was on hand, lovely as ever, greeting all.

That's just a quick look around, now that I am back in SL from my RL adventure.  I caught The Follow's Powers Avon at The Roof - his shirt says it all about how busy the band has been and is!

Catch you on the grid and on BOSL radio for some SL jams, hot off the grid, in a show I call Slow Bake, featuring SL musicians, Saturdays, 11am SLT. (Pic below, Deep House Island radio remote)

Lazy Afternoon at Coconut Rock

Saturday afternoon at Coconut Rock at Two Moon Paradise. Gabryel Nyoki and AcousticEnergy performing. Shiran Sabra, owner, always a joy to talk with, brings some of the best acts to her venue. She's chilling with Gabryel at one point at the foot of the stage while AE performs.

Just another great time with the good people of Two Moon.

Linden Love for Cancer Research

Shiran Sabra, owner of Two Moon Paradise, is gorgeous in her red gown. She had a special idea for universal LOVE Day - to generate cash for kisses. Haha. I mean, think about all the money that is spent by guys to keep their partners happy, and maybe vice versa. What is the value of a kiss anyway? LOL. I am teasing, but Shiran has this idea to make kisses count for something very very special - yes even more special. Kisses for a little Linden Love this Valentine's Day can go a long way to help Cancer research. Two Moon Paradise had four hours of dj entertainment, free drinks and roses, and plenty of kisses - in fact so many kisses, TMP raised 15K more than anticipated for its fundraising drive, with a final total of 25,000 Lindens. And a lot of that was from the kissing booth.

So that's a lot of love.

Two*Moon*Paradise, Always the best names in live music, so be sure to join their group or just drop by.

February 19th, its Damien Carbenell (6PM SLT) and The Follow (7PM SLT) at Coconut Rock. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Two%20Moon%20Paradise/240/129/21

Happy New Year 2011

Checking in from my BOSL Radio holiday. Some photos from Two Moon Paradise Owner's Shiran Sabra's New Year Eve's party - a nice gathering of club family and friends. I popped in an hour before Central USA turned over to 2011. I came in time for the awesome fireworks from the East Coast Zone's celebration. Just took lots of photos. Shiran's throwing her REAL bash on New Year's Day with Gina Stella (5PM SLT) and Christopher Quan (6PM SLT) at Two Moon.
