Virtual DJ Clubs

So there are all kinds of Virtual Clubs in Second Life and Opensim worlds.  There are Rock Clubs Christian Clubs Modern Clubs  AND COUNTRY MUSIC CLUBS Once I entered the virtual worlds I loved music and Clubs.  There was maybe 2 good Christian Music Clubs so I created one.   HEARTSONG CLUB SCI-FI EVENT Exploring Clubs was fun but it's not all good for you newbies.  Sometimes you meet people that are only interested in developing romance/sex games.  So you need to ban them so you don't hear them or see them.   In general it is like the real world.  There are ugly people (ugly within) and not.  I enjoy running a Christian Club because we are of like mind and there are so few Christian Clubs so the need is real.

So to my surprise,  Churches are alive and well in the Virtual worlds.   There are all kinds of faiths, languages and sizes.   Some are streamed  with a live preacher speaking through an avatar and then there are churches that video stream live real world services.   There is no lack of believers.  I began to attend a church in Scotland (Calvary Chapel) where the Pastor and his wife Ministered to many.   More often then not there was a showing of about 30  avatars in the services.  The Pastor would play his guitar and sing then preach. It's so awesome to see so many people from around the world gathered together of like mind.

AS MENTIONED EARLIER, I began to look for Christian groups and/or activities.   I found a Christian group that had games and Dances, a second one was a community that also had some Dances and finally I found a park.  The group "Eternal Life" was a sim¹ owned by a male named "Sonic". There were often games or Dances, while streaming Contemporary Christian music. I also met a female - "1Way" who owned a park. I was sitting at a small cafe counter in her park. This was actually the first Christian place I found. I met 1Way when someone dressed in a white robe with an upside down cross on his back walked by.  Not realizing that someone was near chat distance I commented in chat " That is one sick puppy " and to my surprise she responded in agreement lol.  That was my first Oops moment.  We became friends on that day.  Then the third location I found was the "WOW" sim, owned by Maggie.  "WOW" stands for WithOutWalls.  This was mor...

So here we go. I  (Bonnie)  am a resident ( term used when you play the game ) of Second Life ( SL which is a very large virtual world ) and Opensim ( which is many smaller Virtual Worlds owned by individuals ).  I've been in Second Life  (SL)  since 2007.  Curiosity was the culprit that caused me to enter SL.  I went to concerts where there were real people singing into the virtual worlds through an avatar.  I went to Dances where there were real people DJing through an avatar.  It was fun.  I enjoy Country Music and met some of my first virtual friends ( Drearstluv & Jodi ) at a bull riding contest. It was hilarious fun with them. Excellent sense of humor.  I am also a Christian and therefore I searched for Christian Clubs and activities,  ( finding 3 groups ).   I  realized this community consisted of people from around the world...WOW!!! Next I will tell you what and where.
