Fall in Nantucket

The season of Fall is upon us in Nantucket, a scenic New England village in real life, and a beautiful performance and shopping space in Second Life. Many amazing performers have sang at Nantucket to adoring audiences. With only days away from the season's change in RL New England, I had the pleasure to drop in to SL Nantucket to catch a bit of two talented performers - AcousticEnergy Nitely (AE) on Thursday and Blueron Clyburn on Friday.
During AcousticEnergy's performance I met Blue, and he invited me to listen to him playing live in Nantucket the following day.



It sounded like a great plan. Both AE and Blue are so smooth in their vocal presentations, but their styles are very different. Each can melt your heart in unique ways. Both interact well with their audiences. AE tends to flirt a bit with his songs. sometimes working female attendees' names into his song set. Both singers charm all who attend. Blue is just an all around fun presenter, displaying a rich vocal range and equally good sense of humor. AE has been a grid favorite for a long time, swooning women and helping all his fans, new and old, to remember to take time out of RL to have good times on the grid. He thrives on bringing together a community of listeners who just enjoy him at Nantucket and fairly anywhere in SL.

Sher Salmson, manager of both singers, is a beautiful sweet woman who represents several top SL musicans besides AE and Blue: Anek Fuchs, Automatic Band, Automatic Quandry, Gabryel Nyoki, Gina Stella, Hazideon Zarco, Lighthouse Mixmaster. Nantucket is a perfect setting to experience New England's Fall, any time of the year, whether or not a live performer is on stage. But when they are, they warm up the chilly September days.

Summer's Last Breath

Fortunately, we have Second Life, lol, as summer winds down for many of us. My business partner, Lowe Runo (Machinima Artist Guild founder), created a small hangout along the beach outside of our office building. Here's just a few pics of me admiring his work. He made it for his old, new, and soon-to-be friends because he said to me, that the machinima business should be fun. The hangout is adjacent to our outside classroom/auditorium. So much fun stuff here, dancing disks, crazy animations, and cool people (if I say so myself). Look around. Hey, what else would expect from a machinima enterprise and a eccentric machinima man! Be sure to say hi to our neighbor, Kara, too!

Drop by Lowe Runo Productions on the Island of Fame, and say hi, dance, explore, explode, or chill.

Graduating with Honors

Ahh, music to the eyes. I will take one of those fashion detours this blog, and simply appreciate SL's beauty at its best. As summer draws to a close, it is a wonderful time for new beginnings, celebrating a new generation of lovely and talented models. Some friends and associates of Prism gathered to watch a special graduation.

CEO Journey McLaglen invited me to this special fashion show featuring two "Prism model" graduates. All watched on with anticipaion!

Emcee Herradura Baar (below) began the evening saying, "Sere and Jezz have worked hard to be amazing models - and tonight is their graduation ceremony."

It was a lovely event, with a cozy turnout out of Prism friends and associates. The fashion graduates proved they have the flair for style in their choices for outfits, and the beauty and skills to do those outfits justice. Be on the look out for them modeling Journey's lastest creations, and be sure to check out her store.

And now the lovely graduates....Sererika Capra and Jezzixa Cazalet!

Thanks for the invite! :) Soni

Flashback Night

Led Zeppelin on huge screens in a huge fab coliseum. A packed sim, 70s themed contest, and good people. That was my Friday night! I blogged it for Best of SL Magazine. Here's the scoop - either you missed it or maybe I caught you there!

I love SL music, even when it is imported from the RL legends that influenced the music scene here and in that other world that takes us away from Second Life.

Well the reality of it is - Whispering Ruins Alternative Club promises more Zeppelin, live SL music and other sonic treats!
