Belle Demeure April 10 - 17, 2019: Live Music, Poetry, Art, Erotica, Classical Music, Concept Album

April got off to a very rough start for me in First Life, the result being that virtual plans for Belle Demeure had to be put on hold.  Here is the (as ever) flexible plan for the next seven days at Belle Demeure.

Unfortunately, Hex and I were swamped with first life on April 7.  That was my 10th Rez Date and the 8th Anniversary of the SL partnership of Freda with Heximer Thane.  It has been a fabulous decade inworld!  


Hex and Freda.

CONCEPT BALLROOM:  My Chemical Romance – 'The Black Parade' (2006)

Belle Demeure Ouest
http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Bushside/194/140/52

While you could argue that My Chemical Romance's career was largely comprised of a series of elaborate concepts, third album 'The Black Parade' was the most well-orchestrated of them all. As well as performing as their alter-ego Black Parade band, the album itself told the story of The Patient and what happens as he transitions into death.

Dan Singsalot, LIVE

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Bushside/185/246/50

"Since early childhood I was exposed to all kinds of music.  I gained a deep appreciation for diverse kinds of music. I am an open minded, free-spirit, preferring to celebrate life through my music. I love to feel a song, and let the notes just follow. I try to be a versatile performer, singing classic rock, R&B, little motown, country, even bluegrass, celebrating diversity through songs."
Casual or semi-formal.
