First Life is broke, there's always Second Life...

I seem rather a solvent character in Second Life, so this Sunday eve I'm staying there - DJing in fact in 2 places.

First I'm DJing for an hour at the LGBT Awareness Day at The Cove in Xenia (SLURL) from 10am PST/SL  and 6pm UK time - it's currently on and rocking (full of virtual bearzes!), and Amanda Shinji from the Parkade is on for the hour after me, it'll be a hoot, expect loads of out n' proud and gay themed sounds from me, although not the first obvious choices (LOL).

Then jumping into a jet and flying over to the Parkade (SLURL) where I'm DJIng at Traffic jAmbient for 2 hours from 12pm-2pm PST/SL which will be 8pm-10pm UK time.

So although I can only afford to be at home I'm kind of OUT, of sorts ;-)

yeah DJing is a geekish profession, the ones I know are usually like musical trainspotters, ironically sometimes with the lack of social graces of their train counterparts! Ego is rather rampant, competitive and anal sometimes, comes with the territory. One of the reasons I do

I never play for gay crowds IRL though - it was a clean divorce - me and them have mutually decided that our musical tastes do not collide! To be honest I've rarely ever or never played for purely gay audiences.

I think I'd be OK in the US where the gay scene has more musical styles, at least in the bars. Here the bars, clubs et al - all bad trance music. That's what they want, with Kylie and Madonna and 80's music, and I don't play that. It's sad cos I'd like there to be a crossover between the gay, mashup and remix communities but as I and others have found in the UK at least it aint happening...they want their drug music!
