Educating Bock

My family and closest friends in SecondLife have a mission in their lives at the moment. They have all joined forces to fill the deep void in me concerning a certain contemporary cultural phenomenon, namely my utter and complete lack of knowledge with the mythos of Harry Potter and his wonderful world.
To bring me up to speed on this we have the last four weekends been having "movie nights" at Southern Charm, showing the Happy Potter movies. The others have seen the films between 6 and 60 times and sometime know all the dialog by heart.

It has been great fun watching the movies in the company of these "potheads" (or is it Potter-heads?). On Saturday at 9 AM SLT we will be seeing the fifth movie in the series, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix".

Here are a few pictures from the time we saw the first movie in the series..

Well-Strung - Royals


(via J.M.G.)

Well-Strung is made up of Edmund Bagnell (first violin), Christopher Marchant (second violin), Trevor Wadleigh (viola) and Daniel Shevlin (cello), who made their debut as group in New York in 2012.

Out Magazine has this to say "Well-Strung Covers Lorde’s ‘Royals’:
"People love Lorde’s breakout hit, “Royals.” The beat’s infectious, the chorus is catchy, and the gestalt of the thing is pop brilliance. So one would think it’d be impossible to improve upon. Well think again. Enter Well-Strung, the singing string quartet with that’s as easy on the eyes as it are on the ears.

The band’s got a new album, POPssical, dropping in October and they’ve just released the video for one of its singles, a cover of “Royals.” Shot in black-and-white along New York’s tony Fifth Avenue, the song’s anti-capitalist lyrics juxtapose nicely with shots of the street’s upscale boutiques and department stores. Plus it’s got some good shots of the guys, so it’s definitely worth a watch. Well-Strung’s POPssical is out on Oct. 2."
