This was a mixed reality event. The live show was simultaneously streamed into Second Life platform where about 100 people were gathered at the virtual Blarney Stone pub. Several other sites/platforms were broadcasting this unique event as well. At the end of the individual sets, JooZz (piano & bass), Willy Sparrow (midi guitar) and Xander Nichting (electric 6-string violin) jammed a little.
