One of our regulars, enjoying a show

Avery is enjoying his favorite Cafe Casablanca artist: JC Farstrider. Word is, he will come from the far reaches of the home to sit and listen to JC play his sax! (Nobody can ever say we discriminate against furries!)

Another month past at Cafe Casablanca

I will eventually get this blogging thing down - honest.

In the meantime, I have invited one of our performers to do a post. I hope to have regular posts from all our performers eventually, but I have to get the ball rolling with one, first.

I have also turned on comments. They are open to all at this point. We'll see if that lasts. I am assuming we will get the occasional ... problem comment. If it's occasional, I can deal with it. If it gets bad, I will have to put some restrictions on. You will have to do one of those captcha things to comment, though. (Please use your SL name to post if you're using the 'anonymous' feature for comments - that way we can say hi when you stop by.)

Our Big Band Night is going well, and moved to Thursday nights. (You're doing fantastic, Suzetta!) We are working other, appropriate DJ events. We wouldn't mind a few more instrumentalists (like the incomparable JC Farstrider). Hmmmm. Given the period of Casablanca and the big band themes... any clarinetists out there that want a shot at SLtardom?
Just to give a rundown of artists who performed this past week at Cafe Casablanca:

• Paulette Oldrich (2 shows)
• MrMikie String
  
• Alatiel Pessoa
• Mila Avedon
  
• JC Farstrider (2 shows)
• KB McAuley
• Annabel Trafalgar
• Glolo Ling
• theghost Melody (brand new!)
• RichardScott Barcelos
• DJ Suzetta Moonites

[Rick: Somehow, I forgot MrMikie String when I first put this list together.Sorry, Mikie!]

Oh, and I would like to thank Rick Irelund for stepping in last night, when we were having some difficulty getting our show going. He put in a half hour show while we worked things out, and sounded great.

We truly appreciate all our performers and all our patrons - you are both why we are here!

Hmmm... I'm not very good at this blogging thing

Well, I didn't post at all last month. And, nothing this month, either. Until now, of course. It's a good thing this isn't a daily blog.

Well, as is wont to happen, our schedule has changed all about in these last 8 weeks or so. We have a couple of performers coming in twice a week, even. We have had a few performers move on, and one or two new ones move in.

A new event we are trying is Big Band Night. DJ Suzetta Moonites - a fabulous DJ - will be queuing up her selection of big band hits, and playing them for two hours tonight (Wednesday, 25 August) from 7 to 9pm SL. I anticipate a great couple of hours of great music!

We are contemplating more special nights like Big Band Night. If you have any ideas that would match our club (no, we probably won't ever do a Slayer or Celtic Frost event), please IM Conlaoch Gustav or NytEyes Marikh in-world.

Oh, and thanks to all our patrons who tip the club and the performers - it's how we keep the music playing in SL!
