Fashion & Music - Club Graffiti Opens Today @ 1pm

I love when music and fashion come together, so when Kalli Birman dropped a notecard on me with the following info on it, I knew I had to share it:

The Village, Second Life's newest hot spot, will be having The Official Launch on Friday April 29th at 1PM SLT. Owned by Mankind Tracer and Kalli Birman, The Village is modeled after Greenwich Village, NYC of the 1970's and will be home to some of the best couture boutiques Second Life has to offer including House of RFyre, Gizza, Paris Metro, Tres Beau, Bliss Couture, Vogue, Blacklace, Mary Jane Shoes.

The Village is also home to the new underground rock venue, "Club Graffiti". It is inspired by one of the most famous clubs in Greenwich Village, CBGB's and the area where the whole punk movement of the 1970's began. Artists such as David Bowie, The Ramones, Blondie, The Talking Heads and many others made their way through CBGB's to begin a new revolution in music.

Club Graffiti will host weekly shows by top SL musicians. Mankind Tracer, one of Second Life's most well known live performers and co-owner of The Village, will also perform every Sunday night at 9PM SLT.

The launch will be opened by the popular band The Follow at 1pm slt and will continue at 2pm slt with a performance by Mankind Tracer. It is asked that all attendees remove any attachments and scripted objects prior to arrival to help reduce lag.

The sim will open at 12:30PM SLT to allow time for guests to arrive.

Music has influenced fashion for decades. Think the '60's with it's hippie/boho chic looks, the '70's with disco and Elton John, '80's with menswear and Madonna, '90's with Grunge and Kurt Cobain, and the 2000's with mashups and Katy Perry and Gaga and Kanye and hip hop....and yet to be seen.

Fashion and Music just go together. And no where do you see that better than in the clubs. That's why I love this concept of a club in SL with amazing fashion and shops right outside the door. And oh what a club and oh what shops! And the sim is based on The Village in NY in the 1970's. One place you do NOT want to miss is the restroom in the club.

 Enough said!

The Follow will be kicking off the opening TODAY at 1pm. Doors open at 12:30pm.
