The Indie Scene in Second Life- Piers Diesel Reporting...

Friday, February 21, 2014 culture, Indie Music, music, Piers Diesel, second life, SL enquirer No comments

In Second Life we are fortunate to have a vast genre of music to suit everyone’s taste in music.

Indie music and the indie underground movement in Second Life, is as popular as it is in Real Life. The three genre of music which dominates the Second Life music scene are:

Tech/dance/trance
Indie
Country

Indie music is a genre of alternative rock that originated in the United Kingdom and the United States in the 1980s. Indie bands in Real Life such as the Artic Monkeys, Babyshambles, Beck, Kasabian and many more can be heard spinning from the DJs in Second Life. However, you will find a lot more underground indie groups which may not have made it main stream but have a good following of fans.

So where do you go if you want to hear indie music in Second Life?

Mackenzie's Mumblings – My (nearly) First Year In Second Life-Mackenzie Abbot reporting

Wednesday, February 19, 2014 culture, Mackenzie Abbot, real life, second life, SL enquirer 1 comment

Happy (nearly) birthday to me! Happy (nearly) birth...you get the idea.

After nearly a year in Second Life, I am a changed person. Ever since I rezzed on March the 30^th last year, I've been on a voyage of self discovery and unadulterated pleasure, as well as a smattering of misery thrown in for good measure. In the early days, I was lost. I had absolutely no idea of what to do, where to go or even why I was here. I saw Second Life as a huge 3D chat room where I could make friends and pass the time. Gentle reader, I was wrong.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY SLE FANS! Interview with Cupid 2014

Friday, February 14, 2014 comedy, Cupid, Happy Valentine's Day, humor, interview with Cupid, Lanai Jarrico, parody, second life, The SL Enquirer, Valentine No comments

Valentine’s Day is here and lovers are finding ways to surprise their special someone with gifts and plans for that special date. In Second Life, venues are decorated and prepared for romance themed events and the matchmaker services are on overdrive.

The SL Enquirer is observed this holiday by seeking out Cupid for an exclusive one on one.

Last year, the bow and arrow was handed to a replacement Valentine mascot because the original Cupid decided to pursue another career in adult entertainment. This year, Lanai searched high and low and finally found the 2014 Cupid sitting at The Blarney Stone Irish Bar and throwing back a few drinks.

Second life Golfers, We are having a Valentines Season tournament at Emerald Crystal Golf Course and would love for you to join us!

Emerald Crystal Golf Course has designed this tournament for couples, but if you have a friend, buddy, enemy or whatever, any two people can be a team.

The entry fee is L500 per team. We will be paying cash prizes to the top three teams.

L2500 for first place

L1500 for second

L1000 for third.

How to Enter

You can enter by messaging and paying the 500L entry fee to LittleOneSusan Teardrop, Rafe Holder or Cloe Holder(cloe.neiro).

How this tournament works:

You will report your combined score for 18 holes. We would ask that you submit your scores on a note card as this will make it easy for us to compile the results. You will need to own the scorecard which is available at the course (near the first and tenth tees).

All rounds in the competition are to be played starting on February 7 and ending on February 21. Your scores can be reported to any of the three people listed above.

There is no requirement that you play your competition round with another team but we encourage you to do so if possible. We would like the tournament to be an opportunity for you to meet new people but we certainly understand the difficulties of scheduling.

See you there and good luck!

The SL Enquirer has been working closely with The Green Lanterns of Second Life in an effort to keep the Second Life community informed about griefers that can affect resident’s virtual experience in a negative way. The Green Lanterns is an organization of dedicated volunteers who have made it their mission to help protect the SL community since 2006.

SLE was contacted by The Green Lantern’s Head of operations, Hal Jordon (greenlanternexcelsior). He had concerns about a product called ON DUTY Penis and wanted to make the SL community aware of this griefer tool as well as an open letter from “Anonymous” that was posted last week asking for our help.

SL Playboy Bunny Steps Out In Style Wearing Fashion by Seldom Blue

Friday, February 07, 2014 fashion, lingerie, press release, second life, Seldom Blue, Silky Soulstar, SL Playboy 1 comment

Playboy Playmate Silky Soulstar was recently spotted wearing this hot little number at a recent pre Valentine’s Day warm-up in Old New York.

“It’s the Sylvia from Seldom Blue,” said the starlet who is becoming quite as well known now for her sense of style as much as for her penchant for posing completely sans clothing.

“I just enjoy Indigoblue’s flowing and flirty styling. And her personality can be as whimsical as my own. I just love, love, love how I feel wearing Seldom Blue!”

No word yet on when we might be seeing this flirty Playmate again in her birthday suit, but until then we certainly enjoy seeing her dressed to the nines in her fashions by Seldom Blue.

What Goes on in Jazz Clubs Stays in Jazz Clubs – Stareyes Galaxy Reporting

Sara and Magika Dancing

Clubs in Second Life © (SL) are the main platform for avatars’ entertainment. Over the years, unique categories of clubs have evolved, and Jazz Clubs in particular have taken off in a direction that might not be obvious to the uninitiated.

Jazz, as a genre of music, might be dismissed as esoteric and difficult, and some avatars might shun Jazz Clubs for that reason. To those that might want to explore Jazz Clubs as a vehicle for socializing, it may be intimidating to end up somewhere full of dancing couples and virtually nonexistent local chat interaction. Stareyes Galaxy dressed up to the tees and went to some clubs to see what the phenomenon really is about.
