Madonna Continued - The Missing Scenes

As I am certain, most of remember, "Madonna´s Virtual History Tour 2016 - Strike A Pose" was hit by some misfortunes which lead to some alterations having to be made, among other that the dance master crashed and was unable to get back into SecondLife. 

I was however able to catch the show at Fruit Islands Estate, this time without the irritating glitches. So here come a few of the missing scenes...

Helene's and Dozer's Wedding

Yesterday I attended the wedding of Helene Dragoone and Dozer G.

JJ Goodman's Photos from the Benefit for Bri

Today I am sharing my talented brother JJ's photos from the highly successful Benefit for Bri at the Starlight Ballroom yesterday. The reason for this is that "grey people" kept messing up my own pictures, and JJ's are much better anyway.

Kahvy was the master of ceremonies for the full four hours the event lasted, sometimes DJ-ing but always telling us what dances to perform to the music that was played.

Live entertainment was provided by singers Samm Quendra and Reallymad Morpork. They were both in excellent form.

Pride 2015 - Day 2, The Pride Parade

Franny Dean had outdone herself again. There were something like 73 floats and balloons/blimps in this years Pride Parade, some improved from last year but many new ones too.

The parade is always a highpoint for me, I simply love them! This year there were some initial problems to get the floats and blimps to rez due to lag, but nothing major or unexpected considering the amount of avatars that had assembled on the East and Main sims.

Sadly enough many of the floats went on by empty, so finally I could not control myself anymore but had to jump on. I am a hands-on guy and cannot stand and watch. Please don't bash me for only showing mostly pictures of myself in this post.

Pride 2015 - Day 2, The McMillan Parade Ball

Dancing with Tomais in front of the beautiful Pride Globe
that Jak Calcutt has built for Second Pride

The second day of the Pride festival opened with the McMillan Parade Ball, an event sponsored by this blog, so of course I had to be there in my family tartan with my consort Tomais at my side.

DJ Kahvy with his host and spouse Garrett gave all of us who were there a wonderful time and a great warm-up for what was to come later in the day.

The photos above are by my friend Gigi Swansen, with whom I had the pleasure of dancing a couple of dances before she had to go off to work.

After Gigi left I asked my sweet Swedish friend Helene Dragoone for a few dances. She did me the honor of leading so I could just relax and enjoy the rest of the event.

I had a fabulous time and I hope all the others had as fun a time too.
