OMG, what a great bunch of friends I have. Monday was my RL birthday and I had a nice lineup of shows and surprise surprise, Truelie Telling and Vaughan Michalak came bearing gifts and party supplies.
I didn't get a picture of Truelie's set (dagnabbit, was having so much fun I forgot to take pictures!!) But I did catch one of Vaughan on stage and one of Wendy & Lonnie
Thank you to everyone that came out and helped out, you are all the best!!!
Last night I was out flying around and I took a look at the cool things that Lario has done at Lewis rock. I loved this view finder. It's so realistic.
I have a big week of concerts coming up, that's exciting but will also be exhausting.
Thursdays are always my big music day at SCT and I usually have a huge lineup with only a few breaks between sets. All of the shows are my favorites but one in particular stands out each week as really fun.
Fyrm Fouroux is a British musician. He has a deep bass voice and a ton of unique original songs and even his covers come out sounding a bit like a sea shanty. While I love his music I really also enjoy the bunch of fans that come to this show week after week. We're always cutting up, laughing and poking at each other, and sometimes we poke at poor Fyrm too.... this week he sang his Khuna(sp?) chicken song and I rezzed a chicken on stage while he was singing. After that he sang a song about a blob and I blobbed him (tho I don't know for sure that he saw that one).
A few weeks ago we had a Leather & Latex party at his show, this week we decided we needed another themed party, so next week we're doing a medieval themed one.... oh and Sally is building a stage bed for it..... don't ask... just come see for yourself :)
I finally broke down yesterday and bought a Flying Fizz. I still have a lot to learn about it and hope that I get the chance to read the documentation soon. So far I've only taken it out a couple of times and have only sailed it once. I hope to do some customizing to it really soon.
I sailed it in fun mode and only flipped it 3-4 times :P
I love watching sunrises and sunsets in SL. Even in RL I've collected a bunch of photos.... what is it about the sun that fascinates? Is it the glow it puts on the things around us? A promise of warmth and renewal?
I've been experiencing a renewal these past few weeks. A warmth generated by friends that surpasses the sun. Standing on my porch and watching the sunrise over Fishers Island is a reminder of the calm after the storm, the deep and lasting friendships, the joy of new friendships and learning new things.
SL give me the opportunity to share these things with others. It may be rocky and hard, but the sun rises every day, right on schedule and reminds us of new beginnings, new friends, new creations.... how exciting!
