The Live Music scene wasych better than before, and thank you to everyone who came along to the Blarney Stone on Tour event on Thursday after the Linden Laua.

Just to be with soooo many talented, creative, and joyous people was faboo! <br />For me, I was there for the people so the shear joy of meeting people I have known (and more that I didn't already know) was reason enough to attend. There were many (mostly pleasant) surprises in discovering who was who and the carbons behind the pixels.<br />The hotel was gorgeous even though its not "convention friendly", and to be in such an electric city such as San Fran made the whole experience so much more enjoyable. <br />Kudos to the organizers for all the hard work. I used to organize conferences in Sedona, so I have a concept of what's involved. <br />Was it perfect?....no.

We worked our tails off organizing it - entirely online. We had a musician (no names) complain about something (wanted more play time and exposure) and I simply said, "Look where you ARE! (referring to the gorgeous hotel and number of bloggers and photographers) You have NOTHING to complain about! ~ Anyway - you made me nearly spew my drink reading about the impending pregnancy tests in the months to come - hahahah!

I can only imagine what it would be like as an RL Avatar spending time with a lot of other like minded folks who actually understand what I'm talking about, when it comes to things all about my second life!<br /><br />Hey Skylar (we've met once in world) I never knew the event was organised by SL volunteers, thanks for the info. I -probably like you - would love to attend with the main reason to meet other Slers I haven't met in the other world. Of course I would enjoy the more commercial 'Linden' aspect, but for me the main attraction would be the small hours in the morning among a group of friends trying to persuade Lauren to do an impromptu show :)<br /><br />- Doran Carter xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9128459727936867354.post-26388483114367999022009-08-18T13:38:51.840-04:002009-08-18T13:38:51.840-04:00I hated to see my friends work so hard on their sh...I hated to see my friends work so hard on their shows/and presentations and then struggle with technical issues which interfered and in some cases negated the effacy of the overall message.

It isn't. It is put on by a group of SL volunteers. <br /><br />This changes the standard of expectations dramatically in my books.<br /><br />The people that went solely for the purpose of spending time with their SL friends were not disappointed. <br /><br />It was a good experience in retrospect.<br /><br />SkylarSkylar Smythe https://www.blogger.com/profile/06218136443422844497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9128459727936867354.post-60634354437251027812009-08-18T12:13:12.464-04:002009-08-18T12:13:12.464-04:00Some of the complaints have filtered in to us &quo...Some of the complaints have filtered in to us "in-world", and of course our play had problems.
