GA Winterfest 2015

Weekend Shopping

OK I admit it, I do enjoy shopping in Second Life and lots of times I really have to wonder why.  I always ask myself this question when I am spending time in my inventory.  I am usually in it before I log out for the night. I think the key to keeping your inventory tidy is to consider everything you acquired during your login and put the stuff in a proper folder,   Trash the notecards and LM that you really don't need and THEN logout.  My guess is that no one really wants to spend the time, but trust me, its worth the effort.

Sure I occasionally hit up TMD and MOM, but there are two weekend shopping events that I never miss.  Fifty Linden Fridays and Lazy Sunday. These offer things for the home, but you can still find the girl stuff in them.  If you like the things from WhatNext and Digs, then you can usually find them on the list.

If you really enjoy shopping and want to pre-shop online before you visit the store inworld, then I would encourage you to visit www.seraphimsl.com.  This way you can do a quick preview before you go to the actual event or store.

Highlights from Second Life's 12 Birthday Celebration

The theme for this years anniversary celebration is "What Dreams May Come."

There are many activities including live performers, DJs from all over the world,  fantastic exhibits, a hunt and so much more.  I encourage you to go and visit the SL12B website for all the details. 

Even though the party ended on Sunday, there is still time for you to explore the regions and see many of the exhibits until July 4th.  

One of the activities that was well attended were talks given in the Dreamitorium.  My favorite series and probably the ones that most residents really enjoyed were the informative talks in the "Meet The Lindens" series. I recommend that you visit the Second Life YouTube Channel for the full series which is now available for viewing.

It was the first time that I can remember seeing so many Linden Lab staff participating in-world. 

This is me dancing with Xiola Linden at the Linden Lab sponsored Music Fest Party.

I had the opportunity to DJ on the same stage leading up to the event.  It was a very exciting opportunity for me.

I was also a member of the Press Group.  This is something I have participated in for a few years now.  I even shared a few pics on the SL12B flickr page.

Overall, I think this was probably the best Birthday Celebration I have been to in all of my 7 years in Second Life.  I hope you had a chance to visit.  I highly recommend several visits.  There really is so much content to see on all of the regions that make of the celebration.  I also want to thank all the staff who put in countless hours for putting this event together for us.  Thank you.

A Decade of Second Pride

The Second Pride Celebration begins today and runs all week long with DJs and performers from across the Second Life™ Grid.  There will be plenty of opportunities for you to shake your booty on the dancefloor as many of the DJs will be performing throughout the day and well into the SLT night.  I will be performing on Monday 8-10pm SLT on the East Stage.

There will be lots of shops and vendors on 3 regions to satisfy your shopping desire.  Plus there is a Carnival and a Japanese strolling garden.  There will even be a Pride Parade on Sunday June 20th at 10am

This year the event takes place on 3 regions:
Main Stage Slurl - East Stage Slurl - South Stage Slurl

Have a Happy and Safe Pride!

Linden Lab Meetup at SL12B Event

This morning I attended a Linden Lab Meet up event for Premium Members in Second Life.  It was like a SLebrity Who's Who gathering. There were about 10 Lindens who were in attendance at some point throughout the long event. Here is a list of the Lindens I managed to see:  Xiola, Oz, Michael, Torley, Shaman, Patch, Vitae, Brett, Alexa and Simon.  I also saw my friends Bock McMillan, Tomais Ashdene, Kharisa Indigo, and Ziggy Starsmith.  At one point the sim was busy with about 80 avatars on the region.  The small island was packed.  My computer seemed to handle the load quite well and the longer I was there, the better conditions were in seeing most avatars fully rezzed as you can see from my photos below.

Adonis Heights Radio Party

On Saturday we had a party at my Lakeview Deck for the Adonis Heights Radio 2nd year on air.  I was not sure what to expect and I did mention it in a few of my social media channels including events.secondlife.com.  Attendance was light and I am not sure what the reason is for that.  Timing perhaps?  It seems like residents are being pulled in all sorts of directions by contests with huge L$ prize and Best in this and that.  It's incredible the amount of pull people will do to get people to join their events.

My approach is simple.  I put it out there and see what floats.  I have been in Second Life for almost 7 years (my rez day is in May) so this is nothing really new.  Attendance always seems to be on a roller coaster until "The Next Big Thing".

My radio project is not a huge amount of time and investment so I will continue to provide this for those who want to listen to my favorite blend of music.  You can listen in-world and out here or grab the Tune-in app and listen on your mobile device.

Food Fair 2013

There are so many awesome events in SL that it can be overwhelming.  This one caught my eye today and so I am sharing it with you.  It's the 1st annual Food Fair.  I was impressed by the new Ham Dinner created by Kaz over at Pilot.  Mesh never tasted this good  It's great to see creators who will push mesh beyond clothes and buildings.  So go and check them out.  More info at : http://officialfoodfair.wordpress.com/

Love Wins!!

Today the Supreme Court has ruled that the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) is unconstitutional. Proposition 8 was also struck down. That means the federal government will now recognize marriage for same-sex couples and couples will be able to marry in 13 states and the District of Columbia, including (and once again in) our nation’s most populous state, California.

This is a very historic moment for the entire LGBT community.  And even though we celebrate this with great joy, we need to remind ourselves that the battle for equality remains ongoing.

You can be sure  that as the community gathers to celebrate San Francisco Gay Pride this coming weekend the party will be non-stop.  Let’s also take time to pause and reflect on how fortunate we are to finally come to this point in our own personal history and look with renewed hope to what lies ahead.

Be safe and always remember that no matter how bad things seem, in the end —  Love always wins!

Second Pride is Coming Soon!

I got a sneak peak of the mock up for this year's Second Pride which begins June 22.  The build is gonna be so amazing.

It will be held on 6 sims which will include 4 theme sims.  Buenos Aires, London, San Francisco, and Sydney.

You can get more information by checking out the Second Pride website.

I am sure you will also hear much more in the coming days with postings by many SL bloggers.

Here is a link to the GWNews TV Channel on YouTube for an interview with Kharissa Indigo, the Director of Events.

Second Life's 9th Birthday

Linden Lab has decided not to host an event this year, BUT let the residents of Second Life plan events on their own.

Thanks to the generous contribution of sims by Dream Seeker Estates, there WILL be a celebration this year.  Lots of residents are working at a quick pace to make this happen.  I applied to DJ the event and hope that gets all worked out as well.

You can get all the information by checking out the website.

Menswear Fashion Week 2012

Now imagine this location with lots of avatars and a lot of lag. I have not checked it out yet, but a friend told me it was bad this weekend. I would recommend visiting in the middle of the night and hope for less traffic.

My SummerFest Recap

Last week was a very busy week for me in SL.  I was involved in some of the activities of the LGBT SummerFest 2011.  If you didn't get to this one you missed out on a lot of fun activities.  I was even asked to manage a full sim which was used to host events from groups that are currently not a part of the GA.  We had a great turn out for several of the lesbian events.  The Famous 5 had a great party and it was packed.  On Saturday was the Nekkid Parade and party at the Slot in San Francisco.  DJ Hotboy kept all the hot sweaty bodies rockin to some great music.  On Sunday, I got an IM from HunterTx asking if I was interested in being on the judges panel for the Mr. Nude contest and of course how could I turn that down.

So yeah some of you got to see more of me than you probably ever imagined *wink*  All good fun.

If you follow my DJ blog I want to give you a heads up that there are probably some changes happening there as well real soon too.

Thanks again for following my blog.  You all Rock my SL.
