Pru turns 3 in Second Life

It's that time of year again, when I celebrate the anniversary of my avatar's "birth" in the virtual environment called Second Life.

Last year I was surprised that I made it to my 2nd RezDay; my Second Life adventures had been challenging on a social level.  For my 2nd RezDay celebration I had decided to play music on my parcel and invite others to listen.  One of my listeners happened to be my "Land Lady" and SL Celebrity, Gabriel Riel, who from that day on encouraged me to get "back in the saddle" and return to presenting music on the radio.

Now, you know I love music, and I love playing music for my friends, but I have no desire to be a celebrity in any world.  My initial response to the proposal was "no thank you".  But, in the past year, with Gabriel's tutelage and encouragement, and the support of many friends in and out of Second Life, I've become more comfortable with presenting music to a larger audience.

On this 3rd year of my Second Life, I am celebrating the fact that I'm still here, despite my challenges with social anxiety, illness, puppy-sitting, and despite my fear of the spotlight.  I am celebrating my many new friends and supporters who accept me and allow me to be myself.

On Saturday, August 19th, 2017, from 1:00 PM-3:00 PM Pacific and Second Life Time, I will open The Conservatory in St. John Woods for a party.  Three Guest Presenters (DJs) will surprise us with 30 minutes each of their musical selections, and I may add a few tunes myself.

There is no musical theme, no theme for attire; let's just enjoy the music and the company.

As this date always seems to coincide with the Hurricane season in the St. John estates, there may be heavy rain and flooding in the area.  Rest assured that The Conservatory is on the highest ground in the sim, and is protected by the magic of Love.

June Howl

This month, the Howl's musical theme will be Industrial Goth and "Witch House" , especially for Her Highness, Princess Selena. Witch House is considered a micro-genre of electronic music. It is described as "occult-inspired, dark electro... influenced by infused hip-hop sounds, mashed up and screwed beats, random industrial sounds, and irregular noises." Read more at Beat https://beat.media/what-is-witch-house . The Howl events occur twice a day; first at noon SLT and again at 7:00 pm SLT, to accommodate our denizens in different time zones.  Both events are 90 minutes in length. Friday, June 29, from 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM and again 7:00 - 8:30 PM PDT and SLT, at The Lair, in Rosehaven (Second Life). Fantasy or Goth attire from any era is encouraged. When in doubt, wear Black!

July Howl for the Buck Moon

This month our Howl falls on the Full Moon which happens to be called the "Buck Moon".  Apparently, the month of July is when young deer develop their antlers.  Musically, I've got nothing for that theme... but some of my favorite antlered-folk are fond of Classical music so I'll present a set of Dark Ambient, Alternative and Classical music at The Lair in Rosehaven. The Howl events occur twice a day; first at noon SLT and again at 7:00 pm SLT, to accommodate our denizens in different time zones.  Both events are 90 minutes in length. Friday, July 27, from 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM and again 7:00 - 8:30 PM PDT and SLT, at The Lair, in Rosehaven (Second Life). Fantasy or Goth attire from any era is encouraged. When in doubt, wear Black!
