Second Live, In Concert!
Concerts merge live, Internet and virtual world - CNN.com
Well, I dunno — I’ve been attending live concerts in Second Life for months now — and CNN is finally latching on to the fact? The region where I rent, DarkStar, has it’s own house band, two venues for live music, a radio station venue, and a dance hall that plays streaming Grateful Dead and Phish concert recordings. We have several musicians in residence as well as artists in other media.
Second Life is a great venue for small-time musicians: They can be heard by an audience that spans the globe, in real time. Back in the day, garage bands never had it so good, even with the occasional technical hiccup.
