Also a big Thank You to the fabulous Salamander "Sal" Maroon who arranged the competition and was Compere for the evening: Thanks Hun!!!
I hope you have all managed to check out Tony's its fast becoming the premier hotspot for live music and hot events in SL and is taking Rivers of Venus back up with it. We haven't forgotten about RoV though, Oh No!! I have just spent some time and money getting Tony's off the ground that it has fallen slightly by the wey side, however it has had a small facelift by way of the new seating/bistro area in the main ballroom area. However more news to follow:
PeterWay Jefferson one of SL's hottest new talents has joined us at RoV/Tony's to become our in house musician and is set to become a regular on the SL live music circuit...he plays a superb collection of rock classics old and new in accoustic and puts his own unique and intriguing spin on some of your old fave's. As a rock music fan myself it was a very pleasant turn on some of my personal favourite songs: a MUST SEE!!!
Newspaper Stand grew up around music in a musical family and is formally trained in voice, percussion and piano, and is self taught on Guitar, bass guitar, Russian box harp, and electronic programming. Her tastes are widely eclectic, and include most genres excluding modern pop, and prefers the underground scene in each genre over the mainstream. She also writes original material in rock and electronica, and has self-produced one album of electronic music. She is one of RoV's newest DJ's and is set to become huge in the SL music scene through her live music and fantastic DJ'ing.
I am looking to hire for different timezone events both musicians and DJs - both must have their own stream - if this sounds like you or someone you know - drop me an IM in-world or reply to this posting!!
