Music Break for Julianna

For Julianna one of your favorite Ben Taylor songs (son of James Taylor and Carly Simon).

My favorite song by Second Life Performer Edward Kyomoon.  Check out his concerts in world!

Laurel’s Places to Go – Star Dance Dome

Tonight, my friend DJ Julianna Michigan will be playing music from the 60’s -90’s at the Star Dance Dome from 1 to 3PM on the Main Floor, Thursday also at that same time.  Tonight, there will be a special Romantic Love Songs music set from 7 to 9pm SLT Upstairs in the Romantic Area.  This cozy spot has cuddle couches, all sorts of the best couple slow dances and even a cute yellow dog to pet.  A great occasion to take your special someone to or if your special someone is away but you still enjoy love songs…you can come to listen as I will this evening.  I love mushy love songs even when Sir Nitram can’t share them with me so I’ll be there to support my favorite DJ. 

The Star Dance Dome is a new venue in Second Life so it is somewhere your date wouldn’t have already been to.  So surprise with a new romantic spot or dance downstairs with the singles to meet some new friends.

Live Music in Second Life – MrMulti Writer

Julianna met a Second Life Live Music performer tonight that she said was well worth a mention. After viewing this video, I thought so too. I’ll make a point of attending one of his concerts for some pictures and coverage of how he is live in avatar. MrMulti Writer aka Micheal Wells is a must hear if you enjoy the music of such talents as James Taylor, Cat Stevens/Yusef Islam or Gordon Lightfoot. He covers the singer/songwriters really well and has his own original tunes. You can see his schedule here http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=mr%40mrmulti.com&ctz=America/Los_Angeles  to find out where you might catch him next. You can find even more videos on You Tube by searching for MrMulti Writer. More after I catch him in concert myself.

Live Music in Second Life – Strummer Vultee

I caught Strummer Vultee tonight at the Gaslight at the Callidora sim tonight.  Strummer is a Second Life performer I go to see every chance I get.  Close up of him at the Gaslight above.  He plays a wide variety of music so no two performances are exactly the same.  You can check out his calendar of gigs here http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=jmkc5468beva6ipp2umg06tjms%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/Los_Angeles  He plays his own original songs as well as some really well done covers by such artists as Neil Young, Traveling Wilberrys among many others.  Strummer plays the guitar, keyboards and harmonica.  His voice is clear, powerful and well mixed to be heard above his instruments make his music sound very professional. 

Above is a picture I took of Strummer at a previous concert at another venue.  I’m a fan obviously.  *smiles*  You can find Strummer Vultee videos on You Tube for a listen.

Laurel’s Places to Go – Star Dance Dome

I checked out a new club tonight called the Star Dance Dome and it is really spectacular!  The dance foor is two levels with the bottom level shown here and the upper level a cozy quiet area for couples.  DJ Rick Aurotharius was playing there and he kept us dancing for hours with a really wonderful blend of music.  Other great DJs such as SW Easterwood “The Voice” and Julianna Michigan “Lady of the Lakes” also bring their amazng music here to play. 

The club was built by Buddy Aaron, a german builder with an eye for detail.  It is one of the better club designs I have seen in all of Second Life.  He and his partner PattiSue Haefeli also mange this new club.  The crowd was very friendly, international and the conversation light and interesting.  The hostess’ tip jar was the only challenge to find (it was a floating red heart near the door) in this well laid out club.  I’ll definately be back again and again!  One of the most promising new clubs in Second Life I would say,  so keep an eye out for the Star Dance Dome!

DJ Julianna

My friend Juliana is looking for more work as a DJ.  I’d love to promote her work as I think she does a wonderful job but the place she works for now only schedules her one day then has her fill in for other DJs that are not reliable the rest of the time, working 2 or 3 shifts most days.  She is funny and witty and long experience working as a hostess in SL.  It has been hard for her to build up any sort of following always DJing at the last minute with no promotion of her events at all because there is no time to do so.   I told her I could promote her gigs here if she had at least a few days of work she knew of in advance.  She has been working long hours during DJ School and since but all last minute work.  I suggested a DJ group which she did set up just last night to help when she does have to work with so little notice given. I think she needs to work at another location if she is to build up any sort of following though.  If you know of anything suitable, please let her know.

Her advertisement:

I Specialize in Music from the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and Romantic Love Songs from all decades. Voice with clear Michigan, USA accent. Will use your club stream or my own.  Have some openings for morning or evening work left.

DJ School graduate with a month’s experience. Very knowledgable about music with some special mp3s direct from the artists, as well as a large music vault. Will not work at clubs with dancers but PG or Mature does not matter. Would prefer a set schedule so I can promote my events but longer term fill-in would also be desireable.

Please send notecard to Julianna Michigan with job offers. Thank you for your interest.

Music Break – Samim Heater

Today’s Music Break is from Mango Mubble a wonderful friend and long time blog reader.  Will see what he has for us?

Good tune Mango! Really makes you want to dance!

Music Break – Good Bye Girl

You Tube doesn’t have the original version by David Gates of Bread but this cover is decent of this beautiful song. If you can find the original version on ITunes or to download it is oh so pretty.

The second video is David Gates singing “Everything I Own” I’ve always loved his sweet soulful voice.
