hop://hg.osgrid.org:80/Cozy Comforts City


Dorian is a multi-instrumentalist, he can play many music instruments, but he prefers playing electric guitar (sometimes acoustic – depends on the event) and also singing. His performance in Second Life has three settups : singing with tracks, singing with acoustic guitar and singing with electric guitar.

He has been working as professional performer for more than 10 years in RL, performing regularly in clubs, featuring in outdoor music festivals, and also releasing his original composition with his different bands in the past, but here in SL he is a solo performer.

Dorian based his repertoire in the wide spectrum of rock and its multi-dimensional genre (rock and roll, blues, classic rock, hard rock, punk, hard rock, pop rock, alternative rock and heavy metal). He covers songs from The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, AC/DC, Van Halen, Bon Jovi, Guns N’ Roses, Mr. Big, Motley Crue, White Lion, Metallica, Sex Pistols, Green Day, and many more…

Dorian also has some blues repertoire on his arsenal of songs, including songs from BB King, Muddy Waters, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Elmore James, Willie Dixon.

His performance is filled with energy, crowd participation, and with well-planned song list; he can bring the atmosphere to different kinds of mood, from power-rock beat, fist pumping anthem, mellow rock ballad and raging powerhouse tunes. He can serve requests of songs from the fans – to make the show more engaging and entertaining.

Tribute Hour returns to Club Equinox
This Saturday, Sept 28, 4pm to 6pm GT.

The time has come. Megadeth comes to Club Equinox, at least their music.
Megadeth and Ozzy are tied as my overall favorite music artists, and I have not yet played Megadeth.
This Saturday, September 28th, I will spin two hours of Megadeth tunes. My favorite songs from across about six albums. This Tribute Hour will begin, as always, at 4pm and will end around 6pm, grid time (SLT).

This is a pile of SF Meat on one of my regions. I only have 2 kinds of farm animals on there, NOTHING else regarding farming. I love my Unicorns and my monsters! :D

I only have about 10 total.

This pile of meat keeps on replicating. I'm doing an area search and it is now up to 30,000 SF Meat!

I don't understand what's going on, but I hope it's not that slappy sally or whatever her name is that goes around and replicates objects . . . I checked and it did not give a name on who the creator is.

I'll have to talk to Lone about this cuz I'm not sure if I can get rid of it myself! :(

I got rid of it
[9:49 AM]
Took me a while to get rid of all that
[9:49 AM]
LOL
[9:53 AM]
I went to the sandbox afterwards because there were 3 boxes along with the SF Meat where the SF Meat was. I wanted to take one out to see if there were any scripts in it. But when I went to look in my trash, I could not find them at all. I deleted those three separately also. Oh well, it's all gone now. I'm just surprised that it happened on a one of my non-farming sims and not on my farming som. Shrugs

Bad Event Idea #425: Best at Smashing Capitalism and Having Gay Sex.
While otherwise a good idea for a good event, its a bad idea because most people in OS are too busy smashing capitalism and having gay sex to come to an event about smashing capitalism and having gay sex.

Unfortunately, I have to announce that our grid will be offline for an indefinite period of time. I haven't had time to go online for a while and it just doesn't make sense to keep the server running, it uses up electricity, etc. The grid and the osw page will remain, it will just be offline until I have more time again. If I can, I'll come online from time to time. Have fun
Ich muss leider mitteilen das unser grid auf unbestimmte zeit offline sein wird.Ich habe seit längerem keine zeit mehr online zu gehen und es macht einfach keinen sinn den server laufen zulassen strom verschleiß usw. Das grid und die osw seite bleiben bestehen es wird nur offline sein bis ich wieder mehr zeit habe. Wenn ich kann komme ich zwischen durch mal online. Habt spass

In the garden of humanity, where colors bloom so bright,
We find a world of wonders, bathed in love and light.
Each petal tells a story, each leaf a tender song,
A tapestry of beauty where every soul belongs.

No shadows of division, no whispers of disdain,
For in this sacred garden, no hearts are left in pain.
We cherish every blossom, each unique and rare,
In this dance of unity, where love is in the air.

From the mountains to the valleys, across the rolling sea,
We celebrate our differences, in joyful harmony.
Hand in hand we journey, in a bond so pure and true,
For in our shared humanity, there's room for me and you.

No place for hateful slander, no room for racist spite,
We lift each other higher, in the warmth of shared light.
We break the chains of prejudice, we shatter walls of fear,
In this circle of compassion, all voices we will hear.

With hearts unconditionally open, and spirits intertwined,
We forge a path of kindness, where no one is maligned.
For in the end, we're family, beneath the stars above,
In a world that thrives on unity, and the power of pure love.

Sometimes, making a statement doesn't require over-the-top constructions. More gold and grandiosity don't necessarily equate to greater impact. In fact, larger, huge builds often miss the mark when it comes to creating a truly inviting atmosphere. Quaint spaces, thoughtfully designed with lush gardens and personal touches, can be far more welcoming and impactful.

A well-curated garden, with its vibrant blooms and serene pathways, speaks volumes. The delicate balance of nature and human touch creates an environment that feels alive and nurturing. It's not the size or extravagance of a place that leaves a lasting impression, but the care and thought put into its design.

Such spaces offer a sense of intimacy and warmth, inviting visitors to linger and connect with their surroundings. The charm of a cozy, beautifully tended garden can evoke feelings of peace and contentment, making people feel at home. In contrast, grandiose builds, though impressive at first glance, can often feel cold and impersonal.

Moreover, smaller, more personal spaces can reflect the unique personality and values of their creators. They allow for creative expression in ways that grand builds might not, making them memorable for their originality and heart. In essence, a quaint space with lush gardens is not just a place to see, but a place to feel—a testament to the idea that sometimes, less truly is more.

Well, our old TP system died finally with the TP panels going blank and not working for visitors, so I installed another system. The menu is in alphabetical order and all you do is click, select your location and click again. This should resolve the teleport issue, and thank you to those who made me aware of the issue. Blessings and much love, Lavia
