Tristyn stirs Wild Girls; Nance Heats Up Wharf

Tristyn Homewood brought his homestyle mix of bluesy rock and pop, all with a southern flair, to the Wharf Cafe and Beach Venue.  This good ol' boy is a seasoned pro - his range can go from George Thorogood to Chris Isaak to Joe Cocker to ZZ Top, to a range of contemporary pop to classic rock to rockin' country - and even ballroom ballads.

He brings a visual experience to stage with his three piece band - McKenzie Homewood (guitar/sax), Susan Hereter (drums), and Cindi Mulford (keyboard).  




Of course, that is the act, but the truth is - the guy can sing.   You can feel his heart pulse through country and southern rock.  Still saying that, he can handle any genre.    Beyond that, he produces his own music machinima, http://www.youtube.com/TristynHomewood1.

The shame is he's been on the grid since 2007, and this is the first show I caught of him.  Shame on me!  So much talent on the grid, and I'm getting to them all one by one.




Following him was Nance Brody, with her luscious vocals and brilliant sense of (sensual) storytelling through music.  She brings to stage original songs and a powerful yet intimate stage presence.  She is another seasoned talent in the SL music scene.

The night started with the wonderful Claire Dirval who reminds me so much of Melissa Etheridge with her deep rich vocals.     Claire is certainly one of the most well known musicians in Second Life, and definitely is a joy to listen as a musician and an entertainer who connects with her audience.

Support the Wharf for live music!

Soni On the Road

BOSL Radio is on the Road.  We are live at Egoisme today.  I will be there with my Slow Bake show, likely without the van. 
I will bring the SL music - songs from your favorite musicians who play live across the grid.  See you at Egoisme at 11am SLT.   And if you have nothing to wear, I have a suggestion....you could come as Salsa Girl...
or better yet.......




Egoisme features the bodyglove suit!  http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Dominus/102/137/22
Both are hot, but one is much less messy!  See my prior blog, for it in Black (modeled by Bel) and Blue (by yours truly)!

Meow Meow - Egoisme's Purr-fect Catsuit


Where have I been?  Working, Wedding, Working.   Every Saturday, I get a chance to meet some wonderful people at the various BOSL radio remotes. This weekend we were at Maverick Design at Gizza Creations II. Hanging out with Ivy Maverick was her close friend, Ramses Meredith, who is releasing Egoisme's purr-fect Catsuit this Tuesday. I heard all the rave reviews during my show, and then I saw it for myself:  the red version looked beautifully wicked on Ivy.  That is probably when my song faded out and I had to quickly start the next one.   I think all of our jaws dropped - it has to be the best designed catsuit in SL and RL.

Later that afternoon, I had an opportunity to play with a few of them.  Of the many colors, I had some fun with the blue and white catsuit.   I don't usually discuss fashion here, but every radio dj needs a catsuit with her purrfect music set.   Thanks to Ivy Maverick, Persia Bravin, and Ramses for a peek at the latest in feminine feline fashion - and MESH I must add.   A few shots are included.

No firearms included, nor are they needed really for this dangerous outfit. Your curves in this number should knock them dead.   Belinda models the black version above.  Try heels for a sexier look, if that is
possible.  LOL.  Congrats to Ramses for another sexy creation.

Country Road, Take Me Home

Home is where the heart is.   Wally's White Horse Tavern in Whispers Magic is one of those venues with a lot of heart.  Good people, good atmosphere, and talented singers.  I got all gussied up in my country duds for some live music.  The place was packed, yet still friendly and quaint.   The tavern itself is interesting, from the moment you walk in the door

Home is where the heart is.   Wally's White Horse Tavern in Whispers Magic is one of those venues with a lot of heart.  Good people, good atmosphere, and talented singers.  I got all gussied up in my country duds for some live music.  The place was packed, yet still friendly and quaint.   The tavern itself is interesting, from the moment you walk in the door.

I heard his name around the grid, but this was the first time I heard HammerFla Magic.  He's been in SL for four years.  Hammer has an amazing vocal richness, kinda Marty Robbins like at times.  He knows how to sing a country ballad, but he is certainly not limited to any particular style of music.   I was readily impressed, and so was Belinda Barnes, who hung out with me for the night.




Hammer was followed by the sweet sounding Katarina Malaspina. 


Kat is also versatile in her choice of tunes.  I especially think she does a great Lorrie Morgan.   She followed the Morgan tune with Alanis Morrisette's classic Black Velvet, and a bit later, Leann Rimes' You Light Up My Life (originally by Debbie Boone).  Add to that, three from Patsy Cline, Dolly's I Will Always Love you and finishing up with Chesney's Had Me From Hello! - and so many between.

Both singers and staff were very personable and had a great rapport with the audience.

Hope you can drop by some time to Wally's.

Just a Tuesday night in Second Life, where else could find wonderful entertainment on a week night.

Phi at Flashmans


Phideaux Mayo (editor of Retropolitan Magazine) heated up Flashmans tonight at Esoterica. She sang a variety of classics, ballads, and contemporary female artists. In her first half hour, for example, she went from Mary Chapin Carpenter to Alison Krauss to Petula Clark to composer Jason Robert Brown (one of her favorites). Singer Nina Bean played hostess. Nina is a regular performer at Flashmans as well, along with Phi. Nina danced a bit with birthday boy Niv Bing.







Happy 5th Rez Day to Niv!  Everyone is getting older, even Flashmans. It's been around for five years, and even Phi turned 5 a few weeks earlier this month.  Time flies in Second Life.

BTW - Phi Mayo sings every Saturday at Martini's at the Cove, 6PM SLT.
