Second Life
The Life of a SecondLife DJ
What’s there to say? Many SecondLife users try to delude themselves into believing they can separate Real Life from Second Life.
Impossible……….
Too many parallels interact… in my two lives at least. Running a radio station in RL and feeding the audio to SL… yes, the two worlds meet on occassion. So it’s hard to keep one out of the other. A learning experience, where you learn about yourself.. the good and the bad.
I enjoy an interesting SL as Rommel Gausman… DJ, Music stream provider and sometimes Builder… As in RL, I’ve made some very nice acquaintences but very few friends. Some things remain the same in SL as they are in RL. The interaction of Avatars in Second Life can be just as complex as relationships in Real Life.
Rommel plays a special brand of 60′s through to 90′s music. A mix of Rock, Pop, Latin, Jazz, Blues and Soul. He likes to work the crowd and make them feel part of the show. He specialises in Blues & jazz with the ‘Romantic’ touch.
Rommel will play gigs just about anywhere except Avilion. Not only is it the laggiest Sim in Secondlife, the Sim creator has a permanent case of 24/7 PMS. So his special mix of tunes and his dulcet tones are never heard on that particular sim.
As for Rommels other interests in SL? He’s opened a Blues club called Cagney’s. It caters to SL entertainers and club owners. just a quiet spot to get away after the gigs or when dealing with the Noobs has reached it’s limits. Just a dancefloor, danceballs & a jukebox playing Blues.
Lately, Rommel has gotten involved in producing Caste Sashes for the Gorean segment of Second Life. He loves to build and this seemed a good opportunity to let his imagination run rampant. If you’d like to know a bit more about the Gorean Role Play culture, drop a comment and I’ll make sure you get a few text files.
The nice thing about Second Life, is just that… You have a chance to live it as you’d like to.. Youth returns.. I’ve had people tell me that my Avatar looks as I did a couple decades ago… It’s just too hard to add those weather worn lines…
