I own and run Dublin in Second Life (www.dublinsl.com), and we do a lot of live music there. I work on bringing Musicians into second life. The biggest point I make to them is that they can have an audience ( international) of between 30 and 50 on average to hear their music, buy their MP3's and give them tips, and can do it from the comfort of your own home or studio. One of my biggest successes to date is bringing in Callaghan (www.myspace.com/callaghanspage) to Second Life. They are a 6 piece band which presents some logistical challenges. if any of you would like help in learning to play in SL< just send me an e-mail and I'll be happy to help. If I get enough interest, I might even organise a Folk Festival. E-mail me on ham.rambler@ntlworld.com or send me an IM from Second Life
