Yesterday Nov 9 I celebrated my third “rezday” (that SL speak for birthday… kinda). Those of you here on MS who know me in SL, I thank you for your continued support of my musical career and hope you will keep on coming out to the shows. It’s you  who make them what they are.. your interaction, you willingness to bring in others among other things.

The sponsors have been generous over the years, the venue owners as well but in my heart, I know its the friends and fans who mean the most to me. So stick around.

As a side note, I’d also like to mention that I have been invited to another virtual world to begin performing. Utherverse (UV) has asked me to begin performing my live shows. I will be the first to bring live music shows into this relatively new Virtual World (VW). While other VW’s are trying to keep up with SL’s immense popularity, I feel UV has the most potential both in momentum and technology. I should probably tell you that a good part of UV is more “adult” oriented so just keep that in mind.

While the UV shows will be different than in SL, in quite a few ways, I will still be performing live, possibly via video, and my shows will still, hopefuly, be driven mostly by audience requests. If you are presently a resident of SL, even if you’re not, please go check out UV and register with your SL avatar name so I will know who you are at the shows. It would mean so much to me to have some “family” at the first UV show, set for some time in mid December. That give you plenty of time to register and get a feel for this VW and all its controls, editing features, etc.

Pioneering anything is always tricky but I have been speaking personally with UV’s VP, tech department and marketing department leaders to get this moving as smoothly as possible. UV is free to join but I would urge you to go for the paid membership. My first show in UV is planned for December 18th at 7PM PST. You will need to join to attend.

We will be setting up a special area for the concert, an outdoor amphitheater in Virtual Vancouver which when filled to capacity, about 200 people, will replicate itself automatically to allow another 200 and so on. In theory we can have an infinite number of replicated amphitheaters for an unlimited amount of people attending. We will be marketing to a few million registered users of UV so I imagine it will be very cool for UV residents as this will be the first of its kind. I’m very excited about the prospect of spreading out to other VW’s but again, it would mean alot to me to have some familiar faces there with me. I’m also trying to get them to design animations for the Tracerettes as we have in SL. Will keep you posted on that.

Sponsors can reach me here or via email at info@sethregan.com. There will be some banner space for sponsors on the stage and if we market this right, I’m hoping to get at least a few thousand people at the show and continue shows in UV and SL simultaneously. The sponsor banners will be placed on or around the stages for maximum exposure with clickable links that will go to a website or URL of your choice. I still need to solidify costs and placement with the VP Marketing at UV but I’m hopeful it will work out fine.

Again here’s the link to join. Thanks alot 🙂
