Bay City at Five: musical extravaganza

Bay City Fifth Anniversary PosterSunday May 19th 2013 marks the fifth anniversary of Bay City.

To mark the event, there will be a parade through Bay City, followed by a musical extravaganza, both of which are open to all!

The parade will line-up at the  bandshell in Bay City – Harwich, starting at around midday SLT. Then at about 12:30 SLT, it will set out along Route 66 at and make its way to the Bay City Fairgrounds in the North Channel region.

Music throughout the parade will be provided by Bay City’s own GoSpeed Racer of Kona Stream fame.

Starting at around 13:30 SLT in the Bay City Fairgrounds, the musical extravaganza will run through until late afternoon featuring some of SL’s top live performers.

All Residents of Second Life are invited to participate. Celebration goods are already available at the Bay City Community Centre, in the Daley Bay region, for those who wish to be a part of the parade, and a viewing area is provided. The music event is also open to all who desire to attend.

“What is KONA Stream? It is my personal station I run from my home. I play mainstream pop and rock music from the 60s, 70s, & 80s along with soundtracks, novelty songs, mash-ups and light sprinkling of country. My current library has 13,000+ tracks in it!”

“Hi, I love to sing and play the guitar. I play pop music of all styles from all ages. I play in real life and find playing in SL a lot of fun. I love to play lead guitar too so don’t be surprised if you hear me soloing over myself using a looping device that I use to record myself in the moment and then play over that. I pride myself in all of my playing be live and in the moment versus pre-recorded in any way.”

“Sensitive ballads, classic rock and roll, unusual covers, unique songs from personal friends, heartfelt originals. Sometimes I may throw in a poem or two. I have played in excess of 1500 gigs in SL.”
