O dear, am I getting lazy? it´s been a month since I posted the last time. Time to do some catching up, I guess. Now all I have to do is think about what to write about. And, my god, that is hard, since so much has happened the last few weeks. Let´s see, let´s try to sum it up for a bit:

First of all, well, look back at my last post. Yes, it sure looked like a good moment to have me a slight change of scenary concerning DJing. Leaving the place where it all started, Sanctuary Rock and try to reach the same at another spot, CrusFX. Three weeks it lasted. Then the new venue had to close down. Yeah.... That´s just my luck, don´t you think? But... besides mising out a fun moment weekly spinning tunes, it also left me with an oppertunity. All of a sudden I had time to take my bussiness somewhere else again! Oppertunity, hehe, it´s funny to read I used that word. It was more like a choise. Back to the old nest Sanctuary Rock, or... finally getting to play a regular set at "The Colosseum". Not the easiest choise, if you ask me. Sanctuary has always been good to me. I like the crowd there, the staff, management... I like the place itselves! It has been my second home for quite a while! But.. "The Colosseum", the place me and two close friends do want to see growing bigger and bigger also took a piece of my heart. It seems to go pretty well there! More people showing up during events, de group of patrons grows slowly, and the amount of fun overthere is heartwarming. And this while the building proces of that place isn´t even all finished yet! The shopping area needs a serious make-over. The shops themselves would look even better filled. But.. I think it´s just a matter of time before these things will start to get better aswell.

There that was talking bussiness, now on to social (Second) Life.
Social (Second) Life can only start with just one name. Meka. Yes, we are still doing pretty ok together, although, the last few days.... SL is feeling a bit empty. No, we are not having somekind of fight, no, not at all. Fact is Meka is on some beach, holding a margaritha right now, and I´m still in this virtual world we so like to call our second life! Man, I do like vacations, but it should be me having them, hahaha! Or both, of course, together, lol.. If only...
Good to know her vacation will be over in just a few days. Then I think it´s up to me to guide her throught the hard time of vacation rehab. Help her get back to normal again.

Of course my Second Life isn´t about just her and DJing alone. I know more people inworld. People I love being with too. People I love talking to, either the quickly sent IM´s or the good chats we have, I love them all. Those people are the ones making these empty days a bit less black. Thank you all, I think you all know who I´m talking about.

Finally... a special moment. Before you read on, get your agenda and a pen, ´cause I´m gonna order you to write something down......

Back already, with both agenda and pen?

Good, here it is then, write down: "April 25th, 1 - 7 pm SLT, Freakheim, be there".

Why? Well, it´s gonna be a blast of a party there that day, because we are gonna cellabrate Freakheim´s 1st anniversary!! One year of total, insane freakiness. How to capture all that in just 6 hours. Let´s see, damn, I think it´s kinda impossible! But of course we came up with a few things. To name just two (use that agenda and the pen again):

1 - 5 pm SLT:
The 3th Freakheim DJ Battle, with DJ´s swapping the stream on and off, trying to outfreak eachother. You sure don´t wanna miss out on that!

5 - 7(ish) pm SLT:
The usual Saturday Schred by the one and only Freakmagnet himself, Mr. Rykk Ferraris! The boss himself taking his responsibility to rock us all big time. You never know what will happen.... But when you´re not there, you can´t join us on memory lane after it. It´s up to you!

The Times They Are A-Changin'

Yes, I needed a change. After two years of playing my tunes at still one of the best places in Second Life, I decided to take another route. I had been thinking about it for quite some time, weighting all pros and cons, but in the end it led to me quitting my job as a DJ at Sanctuary Rock. This Thursday will be the last set I will be paying there. I’m aiming 4 a memorable one, though, since, well, it’s not just quitting a job, it’s quitting at the place where it all began. On my first day in Second Life, I was taken to Sanctuary Rock. I was taken by just some stranger I asked where I could hear some kickass, rockin’ tunes. The lady I asked just took me to the right place immediately! From that moment on I was hooked, hooked to that wonderful place. In like two months I applied for the job as a DJ there, and…. Somehow I got it. I have to say I only could do this with the help of two persons that still are special to me. Rohan Ayres and Marvel Kit. Those two guys really helped me out with the software needed to DJ in the first place! Thanks a lot, guys, I still owe you for just that.

Two years…. My god…. That’s quite some time. It wasn’t an easy decision to quit, I can tell you that! All those memories, al those people I got to know at Sanctuary Rock. To many to name them all, but those I’m talking about know I’m talking about them. Guys, girls, don’t think with me quitting my job at Sanctuary Rock you finally got rid of me. No.. I will keep on bugging you any chance I got! You can count on that!

So… does this mean I won’t be throwing my tunes into the world of Second Life anymore? Of course not.. I will keep on terrorizing your ears. Only from a different place right now. I was asked to come play at yet another great place and yes, I couldn’t resist. The place is called CrusFX. Come see the place for yourself when you’re inworld. I think it won’t disappoint you any bit. It rocks! And of course, I will keep on playing at that other two clubs as well. I didn’t quit my job at Freakheim Funeral Home and the Colosseum Of Rock. So plenty of possibilities to still got freaked out by those weirdass tunes I do like to play so much….

See you inworld!!!!!

~"When Worlds Collide"~

"When our two worlds collided, it gave us something divine.... Something special, something to hold on to, something to wake up with wearing a smile, something to go to bed with still wearing that same smile, and all in between was just perfect. It makes us stronger by the day."

There is sunshine ahead!

There is sunshine ahead. Yes, sunshine, and in several different ways even...

1. Winter has gone is his last few weeks. After winter it will be spring, followed by summer. Of course you all know that. But with the fact spring and summer are upon us, we can trust on getting more sunshine! Not that I dislike winter, no, not at all, but to be honest, I've had it with those cold, cold days and nights by now. Bring on the sun! I'm ready for it.....

2. And with the temperature going up, my mood will get a boost aswell. Not that I'm all grumpy during those dark and cold days in winter, but yes, I do feel better when there is sun in my life. When there is sun in my life I feel capable of taking on more then usually. I start to get more energy, and see more fun in whatever I do.

3. Speaking of sunshine, I will have a special event at "The Colosseum of Rock" that probably will catch both the two things I wrote about above. I will play only tunes that will get the temperature to rise, and that will do miracles on your mood! Just tunes with 'rays of sunlight' in them. Think Manu Chao, Noir Desir, Air, Mau Mau, Ozomatli, etc, etc, etc. I hope to see a lot of close friends during that event. It will take place at monday feb. 9 (1.30 - 3.30 pm SLT).

4. More sunshine would be someone I got in touch with. I know it's still early, but I gotta tell you this: I'm having a good time with her. We take it by the day, and see what the future brings us. Up untill now, I'm looking at the future wearing a real big smile.

There, after these few points, it's time to take a drink. Cheers! Cheers on the sun!

Looking back to go forward

Sometimes to go forward you have to take time standing still. Standing still, overthinking past and present. Well, this looks like a good moment to do just that.

While overthinking the past, the most important thing happened would, of course, be Guen and I breaking up once again. I know, aftergetting back together during that event at Freakheim I wrote about earlier, Guen and I both promised to do our best to make it work again, to fix all things causing the first break-up. I can tell you that during the time we were a couple again we honestly both tried, but somehow it still didn’t work out the way we both hoped it would work out. I can’t stress out enough that breaking up for the second time was a mutual decision. We both had serious doubts weather we would be able to meet the future we both were hoping for.
I also have to tell you all we parted ways, promising to keep on being good friends. To be honest, I can’t think of another way then that. My memories of our partnership are way to good to be spoiled by stupid drama.

Guen, you still are special to me, although in a different way then before. I know I will think back frequently and I know those memories will put a smile on my face every time I do just that. I’m glad to have you as a friend, don’t you hazitate to send me an IM just when you feel like it.


Another thing to stand still with is that club. “The Colosseum Of Rock!” I think it’s on the right track. Slowly more people seem to find their way to that wonderful place. This really is a big achievement to all the boys and girls of the C.O.R.-staff!Boys, girls, keep on rockin’ and make this place feel like home even more.

You gotta know I love you all, not just for your efforts, but also for being yourself! ‘cause that’s what “The Colosseum” is all about. A place you can be yourself, nothing more, nothing less. We take you the way you are........

The "Colosseum Of Rock"

Like I say in my DJ schedule right here on my blog, I sometimes decide to just hijack the stream at a place called "The Colosseum Of Rock". Well, yesterday was one of those days. And why? well, let me explain. This Xmas I got me, finally a Nintendo Wii! Of course the day after Xmas I ran to the store to get me "Guitar Hero World Tour. Since then, I'm addicted. I'm even that much addicted to that sertain game, I had to have the complete sondtrack of that game. Yes, call me odd, call me strange, call me anything you want, I'm sure whatever you call me, it's right on the spot.

So... I got me the soundtrack, put it on my MP3 player, and enjoyed all those wonderful tunes whenever I had time, wherever I was. At work, in my car, laying in a nice warm bath, I just could'nt get enough of all those great guitar tunes.

Then came yesterday. I got home from work and, strange, I didn't feel the urge to play the game anymore. But still I had all those kickass tunes, so, what should I do....

My mind was made up pretty soon. I had to share those tunes with others. And the best way bto do that was,of course, to get inworld, hijack the C.O.R.-stream, call over my friends, tell them to bring their air guitars and have a Rockin' time all together! And rockin' it was!

Here is a pic of Maxxius Sternberg, one of the owners of "The Colosseum" and me battling it of with our own guitars and guitar playing moves!

And how about this one: Zaza Beaumont, the other owner of "The Colosseum and me giving away a good show playing the air guitar!

And that's just what I so like about "The Colosseum", nothing in the world, RL or SL, is to strange to put up there. When you read this and it makes you wonder. Get your ass over inworld and visit that club. I promise you you won't regret.

Can't find the damn place? Just IM me and i hook you up with a landmark or even invite you to the clubs group!

Omigod... scary times @ Freakheim!

Yes, scary it was, my set december 27th.... And I did it all by myself. As you could have read in my last post, Guen and I decided to split up after some real good months together. Things just didn't work out the way we both thought they should...

Well guess what.... Christmas time really seems to be a time of thinking things over, and so did I. After some good thinking, helped by some amounts of alcohol, I thought "wait.... this isn't right...." We promissed to be there for eachother in good AND bad times! We should have given the bad feelings more of a fight!

So I decided to do just that. I decided to take a chance. Either I was about to make a big fool of myself, or I was about to be one of the true romantic guys in Second Life! I was about to...... ask Guen to get back together!

Noooo, not just using a simple IM, but on air, through the microphone, during my set at FREAKHEIM! The same place as where we had our wedding party!

So, yesterday I got it all planned. I got my tunes right, got an audience and..... Guen was there too! Of course I had me some beers to get in the right mood, and of course I got me more on stand-by for if Guen should turn me down.

Well, those stand-by beers, I'm having now! Didn't need them yesterday! Guen sad YES!!!!

So I think you all can imagine how I'm feeling now... This year Chistmas rocked!


Guen.... Let's face our demons, beat them and have the time of our lives....

I'm up for it!!!
