Airport Coordination

For those who are flying in, and potentially arriving at times that are close together, please post your arrival times (and whatever other info you think might be important) in the comments to this post. This may enable folks to carpool cabs, and make other arrangements for those final few minutes of the hop to the campus. Use your SL names :-)

addendum:  I've found I have trouble posting via Internet Explorer.  If you're having issues, try with Firefox, Safari, or Chrome instead.

MMM and Community

MMM is a gathering of Second Life musicians and music supporters held in a Real Life setting and offers an opportunity for everyone to meet and share what we have to offer.. face to face.

The goal is to involve as many people as possible in this event, as we all truly believe that there is a real musical community here, and the mere fact that many people travel and commit to these events is a strong indication of exactly that. We are also hoping that there is a way to integrate both RL and SL in a way that no matter what side of the screen you are on the experience can be meaningful and enjoyable.

To build upon this idea of community the event will be held and sponsored by a number of venues on the grid ...approximatley 10......and we will attempt to be streaming about 20 hours of music and video over the course of the weekend. Each venue will be promoting through their groups and personal contacts... helping to get word out.

One of the amazing aspects of all this new technology is the ability to spread information so easily and at the click of a "copy and paste"....or "forward"....or "Like"....we can involve so many folks so quickly. This is what we are asking you to do. Please take a little time to pass this information along. Publicize this blog, and talk to friends and tell them what's going on. The event will only get better the more energy that people put into it...both in RL and SL.....and its already going to be a great amount of fun!
