STOP THIEF!

What a fabulous evening – the sim was full and we had a show stopper as the talented Cylindrian stole our breaths, so Police Chief Drakken had to chase after her and Doctor Ren got us all going again! The crowd enjoyed a great show (albeit a quiet one without the interjections of Crap*) although I believe they tried to put Cylindrian off her interview by making cheeky comments on his behalf.

First up was Drakken Calhoun, Chief of the Virtual Police Department (VPD). We felt very safe as we had many Officers in the audience to support their Chief as he shared with us about the role of the VPD in helping patrol and protect numerous sims from griefers and nuisance avatars. They also provide security advice and investigations in world and have a good process to send error and abuse reports and issues to Linden Labs.

It was wonderful to have the hugely talented Cylindrian Rutabaga, Singer/Songwriter, to join us and perform the debut performance of a song dedicated to her grandparents. It was very moving and we were honoured that she shared it with us. Cylindrian is a passionate soul singer who often performs in RL venues and then broadcasts the show into SL. If you haven’t had the pleasure of hearing Cylindrian’s gorgeous voice we strongly recommend you check out her webpages at: http://myspace.com/gracefolk and

The final guest, Ren Stonecutter, joined SL for fun however his RL background as a physician came to the fore as he became involved in SL medical groups and he ended up founding the Second Life Medical Association (SLMA)which initially started up as a way for medical RPing groups to chat however over time RL medical personnel joined it and it now is often used to present talks about different medical subjects to groups in SL. They also give advice to people regarding RL medical treatment and options available to them. His buisness website can be seen at: whitehurstmd.com

Once again we have great photos from the night – thanks SuperDave!
