Flirtatious! Grand opening

What are your plans this Friday night?  I can tell you where you should be: Flirtatious!  Located at Reverie 47, 64, 45 (http://slurl.com/secondlife/Reverie%2047/64/45/) on a mature sim, Flirtatious will be holding its grand opening on Friday, November 20!  Co-owners Chip Silverfall and Treasure Zarco describe the atmosphere at the club as strictly fun with a 70’s and 80’s vibe, “But not the pop stuff you hear all over,” says Chip, “The stuff people actually listened to back then!”  The club has a lineup of DJs and live performers that will keep the jams pumping through your speakers and on these nights the music will stray from strictly 70’s-80’s and will cover a variety of genres.  I recently had a chance to sit down with the owners and ask them questions regarding the new place.

Is this your first club in SL?

“Yes.”

What made you want to open a club in SL?

“It was a whim,“ answered Chip with a slight grin, “I needed something to do and Treasure has great connections in the entertainment industry.”

“I love working the clubs and with the artists,” added Treasure.

Are there any special events going on opening night?

“The opening day schedule will be 3pm Harmonia, 4pm Cranston, 5pm Magnolia Anthony, 6pm Chandra Deed, and 7pm DJ Salina.  We will also have contest boards for best dressed or something similar with 500L going to both male and female winners!”

What perks can be found at your club?

“There are many dances available both singles and couples.  Our club will be featuring DJs Sal, Tommy, and I myself will also be DJing.  There are 7 romantic residences available.  These are skyglobes with changeable scenes, dances, and cuddle and kiss poseballs.  We have a lovers garden where you can sneak away with that special someone and, my favorite thing, the elf dance.”

The Elf dance?  Can you elaborate?

“Sure!  32 dance balls all in a circle that are controlled by a single HUD.  On the HUD there are 50 dances that we have mastered the controls over!  So, when a faster tempo song is playing we know which dance will fit and when the next song is slow, we can have it queued up and ready to go,” stated Chip excitedly.  “This is something inspired by Inspire Space Park.  Their dance was spontaneous and didn’t have as many dances, nor did it have a name, but ours will be held every Saturday at 6pm.”

Is there anything else you’d like to tell us about your club?

“For us it’s all about fun!  If it’s not fun, it won’t be included.  We even have rules about being bored or lonely in our club rules note card.”

The club is now hiring DJs, live singers, hosts, and hostesses as well as renting shop space outside near the entrance to the club.  If you’re interested in being a part of the Flirtatious team, contact Treasure Zarco for an application.  Shop space is 200L for 20 prims and your lease starts as soon as you pay the box located in the stall you choose.  Two spots are still free, so hurry up and grab yours today before they are all taken!  See you at the club!

Burning Life - Opening Day!!!

I was lucky enough to be invited to join the Burning Life Group before it was closed to new members so I have been visiting and watching the builds as they were completed.

It has been fun listening to the trials and tribulations of the builders in the group chat who have had disappearing prims and textures and missing co-builders.

I visited the community Center which was built by my friend Joao Mastroianni.

This is the place to go to find out information about the various sims and to find tp’s to them.

It is itself is a wonderful build, incorporating Burning Man symbols and pictures and is really the place to start your tour of the 22 sims filled with glorious imaginative art.

The theme of this year is "The American Dream" which seems to be a little out of context considering our universality here.

I have visited most of the sims briefly and what I have seen is so impressive it will be hard to describe it in words.

The last minute rush was on Friday to finish the work as some frantic last minute additions for the opening on Saturday.

Some of the exhibits you must experience for yourself to make your own interpretation of their meaning. Grab a snack and a drink of your choosing and get going.

There are plenty of outhouses so don’t worry about that!

I would highly recommend you prepare for your visit by finding the lowest prim hair and clothing you can and take off all your AO’s and scripts possible.

Those who attempted to go to the Hair Fair will know what I am talking about. The less baggage you carry with you the better off you will be!

You really have to make some time to visit this amazing event!

Those who envisioned their art and then prepared it have spent their last two weeks or longer working on their projects for your enjoyment as well as their own.

I will be writing about various builds that I found especially fascinating in the next week so watch for more about Burning Life.

To get to the Community Center and pick up your tour guide on your map go to Quad 85, 119, 24 and then roam!!!!!
