SL12B – Music Fest Opens Today And Ebbe Altberg Speaks At Auitorium

Today is a big day for SL12B with two massive events taking place. At 1pm STL Ebbe Altberg will be taking part in Meet The Lindens at the Auditorium. This will be a popular event.

Meanwhile, the Linden Lab sponsored music fest has just kicked off on the Ixtlan stage with Alzarin Mondrian the opening act. However I fear people may be a bit frustrated regarding this event because demand is already exceeding capacity as the region is full.

Yes that’s me sadly looking across the region I can’t get into! However fear not, there are plenty of other things to do at SL12B.

Kitty CatS, Pirates And SL12B Celebrations

SL12B celebrations continue at an amazing rate of knots and today’s events include a meet the Lindens, which once again features a two Lindens for the price of one. Danger Linden, Senior Director, Product, Virtual Worlds for Linden Lab and Troy Linden, Senior Producer for Second Life will be talking at 1pm in The Auditorum.

However not all SL12B events are taking place in the main regions for the birthday bash and if you want to take a step back away from the crowds, but still find plenty of people then you may well want to head over to Kitty CatS pirate island.

Kitty CatS, for those who don’t know, are breedable pets in Second Life, they also make for nice scenery. When you add pirates into this mix, you’re on to a sure fire winner … oh come on, I can’t be the only person who likes pirates!

Sl12B is like previous Second Life birthday events full of great entertainment, you can keep an eye on all the events on the performance schedule. This year there’s an added bonus in the shape and form of Music Fest, which has been sponsored by Linden Lab.

Xiola Linden has posted details of the two day event, in a blog post : Rock Out at the SL12B Official Music Fest!

Over two days, we’ll feature an amazing line-up of those artists, across many genres of music, and we hope you will come join us. It’s all the fun of a music festival without the over exposure to the sun, the grueling sludge through the mud, or the long haul and long lines of those questionable public bathrooms. It’s a bring your own refreshments and get ready to dance your pixels off kind of event – check out who’s playing, then grab your ride to the festival below.

Many thanks to Doctor Gascoigne and his team of volunteers for helping finalize the details with all our performers!

SL12B – Oz Linden Video Available And News Of More Lindens To Meet

The Meet The Lindens interview with Oz Linden is now available and can be found here : https://youtu.be/lPmpchJ6yfM. I often embed YouTube videos but this one is an hour long and you’re better off viewing it on YouTube at that running time.

Now in my blog post about Oz’s interview I suggested that Oz had teased us with a big hint about future developments for Second Life :

What about the future you may be wondering? Well one thing is for sure, Linden Lab do not sound like they are treading water when it comes to Second Life and Oz teased the audience by suggesting that they have some new features in the pipeline for Second Life that we would genuinely not believe they would ever do.

Now if you want to get to that part, it’s just after the thirty minute mark. I would hope that a lot of you would like to listen to the full interview, I found it very interesting, others are reporting they didn’t, your mileage may vary.

Today’s meet the Lindens is once again a buy one, get one free affair. Xiola Linden, community manager extraordinaire will be there.

SL12B – Don’t Forget About The Exhibitors

SL12B, like previous Second Life birthday celebrations, is in many ways an odd event. Odd, because unlike many events, the main focus at SL12B is on entertainment and discussion, that’s what most blog posts will be covering and that’s understandable because there’s a hell of a lot of entertainment and discussion.

However one should not forget about The Exhibitors. That link takes you to a list of exhibitors, there are a lot of them. The exhibitors are worth visiting because they demonstrate beautifully the wide array of creativity and interests that make up Second Life.

Whereas my exhibitor visits may seem a little narrow, and largely fantasy based, I am looking at other exhibits, honest! I mean I could not spend all day on Serina Juran’s Elven circle wondering if the gifts are a trap!

No, I moved on to my chief Elf’s exhibit for The Medieval Grid Crier, where you will find lots of information about medieval fantasy roleplay in Second Life.
