A very strange thing for Richard I'm sure, but a bunch of "prostitutes and marvel characters" (always the picture of pc :*: ) had the pleasure of listening to Mr. H play from Manchester in Second Life a little bit ago. Just thought I'd post a quick thing.

Despite not feeling well and his throat feeling horrible he still sounded good and it was a treat to hear him playing stuff not his own. My application crashed right after he started so it froze - i could still hear, but there was no animation or anything, which means I was fortunate enough to not have to deal with the inane chatter of the other guests. But here's what I could catch of the set.

- It keeps raining-Fats Domino
- Long black veil-Lefty Frizzell
- Roving gambler- the everlys
- Lonesome town-Ricky Nelson(I did it in Liverpool the night before)
- Troublesome Water, Howard Sarat (sp?)

too bad a few of the guests were twats, but it was still very gratifying to be able to hear him live thousands of miles away - like a very private, if surreal, radio set....

Par for the course - people getting an advantage to hear a special performance and talking throughout it! :roll:

Glad someone from here got through.

fortunately you can't hear them talking, it's just this constant stream of words scrolling in the lower right corner of the screen.....

i *think* there were one or two others from the forum in there, but it's hard to tell and no one owned up to it....

I was trying to record it, which is why my app crashed....

I don't think I am up to all that technology. :roll: Maybe one day if I have a few hours to spare.

There was an item about Second Life on our local BBC news tonight. A design agency in Manchester were talking about designing celebrity houses. Richard Hawley was interviewed and we had a quick look around his house.

Just found this - for those that don't want to download the full programme, here is a complete summary of the Hawley experience on Second Life.........

Not entirely sure that the virtual Richard looks exactly like the real one - what's going on with the sunken chest? (I know he likes pirates but honestly............... :*: )

They also can't spell hare-lip.

That's a very good page actually - I didn't get to see half of that when I was in Second Life cos I couldn't move around very well - certainly didn't find the secret bunker!!

I see there were some images from the Serious video there - notably the pink weights in the bedroom and the champagne in the bathroom sink (but who chose to colour the suite yellow? :shock: ) :D

I had one of those tricycles when I was little............ but mine was red and white............ funny the things you remember! :oops:

The design for Richard's island in Second Life is up for an award apparently.............
