At last, I have created my own venue in St. John Woods, called "The Conservatory".  That may seem like an obvious and unimaginative name since the building is a large greenhouse, but there is a much deeper meaning behind it.

Those who know me understand that I have very eclectic taste in art, literature, film, and specifically, music.  I am drawn to the unusual, the dark, and the quirky, in a way that manifests as melancholic.

There is an energy within music that resonates with biological lifeforms, such as plants and animals.  I preserve my personal collection of music as a lifetime of energies that resonate within me, and the associated memories.

Just as a conservatory is intended to preserve rare or important horticultural specimens, The Conservatory will be my venue for sharing my musical specimens with others.  (Of course, The Conservatory is also filled with some unusual Second Life horticultural specimens!)

Open House is scheduled for Friday, March 24th at 1:00 PM SLT (Pacific Daylight Time).

Gettin' Funky with Pru

This Thursday night at The Temple I'll be playing a set of Soul, R&B, and Funk music, which I'm dedicating to some very special friends. There is a story behind the dedication, and it goes something like this: I had traveled from California to Ohio to visit family, and two friends from Second Life drove from their respective homes in nearby states to meet me there. The three of us decided to go out for "Girls' Night", and I thought that a "Wine Bar" sounded like a good place to drink and chat.  You see, in my part of California, a Wine Bar is typically a more quiet, sophisticated place where the music is lowered enough that one can have a conversation.  In that part of Ohio I learned, "Wine Bar", means that the venue doesn't have a hard-liqueur license. We walked into this place that was bustling with energy, a mobile DJ was playing very loud tunes and people were dancing and playing a giant game of  "Connect Four".  Hal...
