Second Life music has a bad reputation for schmaltzy rubbish but take a look around at the real world and what do you hear but schmaltzy musical crap everywhere. The interesting part of music is when anything rises above that standard and this show flies far up in the sky. Cat Boucher is bringing the World-Music Festival to Second Life with wonderful help from the Amsterdam sim and do expect to hear some fantastic musicians.
I was not aware fado is similar to flamenco so there's an immediate simpatico between TB Andel and Voodoo Shilton. I have not heard TB Andel much but know he has great skills and I can tell you for sure Voodoo Shilton plays music he sometimes calls 'African jazz' with heavy flamenco influences for an outstanding result.
If you can assist with hosting for this special performance, please contact Cat Boucher in Second Life as she would like to hear from you. I can't because I can't do six hours of anything. No need for explanations, it's just a fact. I do plan on attending when I can as I know Cat and online friends have worked exceptionally hard to put the show together and particularly on working on a line-up of performers with a musical simpatico. There are multiple examples of venue owners who could not be bothered with that but they're not important when we are only interested in excellence.
Note: that's the Rockhouse 'we' (i.e. me) as anyone who knows Cat already knows excellence is the only thing ever to impress her musically.
