News, news and more news...

Well, we were overdue a news update, so here goes... *straightens glasses and coughs in a genteel manner*

Chris (Nathanael West) has decided to move his set from Fridays once a month to Thursdays every week! A whopping big treat I'm sure you'll agree. He'll be playing his own special recipe of electronica/indie/hip-hop and thrilling us occasionally, I'm sure, with some live mixing. Time 1-3pm slt. Pop into the club and pick up a flyer from the poster on the wall.

Becka's work continues to get in the way of her having DJing fun on a Tuesday night so we've given up on that one. Anyone seeing the blank space on the calendar should not go straight into mourning though... we're negotating with Ms Blackrain for a set on another night each week. That will probably come to fruitition in the next month - hurrah!

Poise continues to thrill with her enthralling indie vibe and her sexy voice overs (shivers) each Wednesday. Cus she's so uber super, she does a flyer for it each week.

THINK INDIE!

DJ Poise at AAi <)))

1-3 PM slt

Great Indie Music!

Join Me! \o/

Teleport to AAi

You can join the AAi page on Facebook too! We encourage people to add photos they have taken in the club, talk about music and put in requests to the DJs etc. Pop along and say hi! AAi - An Alternative Indie Club in Second Life

Finally, and potentially leastly, cus we want you to come in world and party with us really... there is a new flash player for the DJs sets on this website, at the top of the page. This means that when a DJ is on (but not when one isn't) you can listen to fabulous indie tunes to make your day go a little faster. So, if you're at work and can't get out, or if you are having trouble getting music working in SL, simply click there and take a load off.

Don't really click it... it's just the poster Chris made for going in the club which you can visit right now and click if you like :)

Wednesday's child is full of WHOA!

Poise Collin's "Think Indie" set on a Wednesday night 1-3pm slt, at AAi seems to have assumed an identity all of its own. She plays indie that makes your heart sing, from all over the world and then links it all together with her voiceovers (faints).

To celebrate the success of her set, she has made a special edition jacket on the "Think Indie" theme and she's offering it free (yes, gratis!) at her clothes shop 'Poised'.

I've taken quite a few photos of it, it seemed a great excuse for Meri glam up and dig out the bad girl image and I also have the navy version of the Reputation jacket available in-store. I wore it all with Poised's jeans which come with a HUD allowing you to choose from a range of colours and stages of beaten-upedness (that so is a word haha).

Go get your fab free leather biker jacket now... what are you waiting for?

Spotted! At AAi last night...

It was a night much the same as any other, only Sunday. And this meant it was time for Thom to dust off his turntable after a few weeks gap and play some funky music. To cut a 2 hour long story short, great music was had by all, many stripes were worn and Meri took some photographs of some of the people who attended. Deelish.

Josie - the Trebor Queen

Meri and Thom

Sylvia Baxter aka Denice the Menace

Chris contemplating his navel (cool earphones)

Never too late for a Halloween costume - Josie dead and risen

Cosmic - ready for battle

Spotted...

You're not even safe from the paparazzi in a place like AAi, as these photos go to prove...

Ashes and Jannick with their little pet dog (Cabuchon? I can't quite remember)

Jess Fanbridge working those legwarmers

Peri <3 - Kisses

The lovely DJ Poise Collins and hubby Azrrael Faromet

Thom looking lovely in his new coat - Eggplant - if you say so :)

He's wubbly, he's fluffy, he's adorable - Wurfi fall :)

Wynn Klaar and her moustache of twirly doom

Poised for Action!

At the risk of repeating myself, Poise Collins is debuting at AAi tonight! Yay! Her internet connection now seems to be okay and she's ready for you all. She'll take the world on with her indie set - be there or be a porcupine in a sewing shop.1-3pm slt.

HEADS UP!

Looks like DJ Becksicle as she has never asked to be known - Becka Blackrain to you sticklers - might have to move her set from her normal 1-3pm slt time on a Tuesday to 2-4pm slt on a Tuesday. This is cus she lives in another land where time is later and she has to go do a horrid job and they don't let her play out the times she'd like to.

So get your jammies on first, and then be there for 2 hours of super duper fabulous indie. oh ja.

She normally moves more than this but times is 'ard.

New DJs!

Yes, two more people are mad enough to enter the insensible family at AAi.

Tonight, the one and only Poise Collins makes her debut at AAi. Poise says she 'misses playing an indie set' and so it'll be a real treat to hear her each Wednesday. 1-3pm slt.

Graz (who has played Wednesdays for years now) has his rl band rehearsals on Wednesdays, and what with that and his BSC wax, his mani-pedi and signing fan mail, has had to give up his regular set. Fear not Furyists... he'll play impromptus when he can.

Saturday nights will (from this Saturday onwards) be the domain of Ricco Monday. Ricco is well used to the club and the insanity so I'm sure he'll fit right in with his indie set. 1-3pm. Monday on a Saturday - more fun that it at first sounds I'm sure :)

I'm so excited I might wee a little.

A night UNDERCOVER with DJ Chris

Chris aka NathanaelWest is a name you might remember from such sets as "Aww Yeah" (the funky set) a few weeks ago at AAi.

Last Friday he did "Undercover" which was a set of covers which were by people that didn't sound like the people they are, or something. Whatever the criteria for the music, it was fabulous and included such gems as the amazingly talented Ben Folds covering Dr Dre's "Bitches Ain't Shit"

Of course, being an undercover set, Chris and the rest of us decided to be suitably incognito and I took some snaps...

The Wolf (Heavenly Villa) and Thom looking completely normal "face off"

Chris is a tree, nothing to see here

Del Ectonite brought nachos, chilli tits and twerking along - god help us

Futuristic time-travelling super spy and not Meri at all

Paolla Piglet Flux looking adorably cute (as usual of course)

Evil Laa looking, well... evil.

So, as you can see, a lot of fun japes, slut drops and twerking was had by all. While the outfits may have been in slightly bad taste, the tunes definitely were not and Chris reigned supreme as our favourite "DJ who pops up now and again with a lairy idea".

I'll let you know when the next one is, it's sure to be worth a visit.

Happy Birthday Grazzle!

Yep, it's Graz's birthday and he's another year older. Hip Hip... Hooray! He's gone off today to have a lovely day in the sunshine and perhaps drink some beer. God bless him and all that sail in him. He's looking good for 52 as well. Snorks.

Tunesday on Monday with DJ Becks

It's time for another episode of "Tunes-Day on Monday", with DJ Becks. Lots of new music for you tonite, including newly released stuff by YesYou, Du Tonc, Ellie Goulding, Lovelife, Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros, Bent Shapes, St. Lucia, American Authors, Tim Fitz, RAC, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Kissaway Trail, and more! Wanna see what's new in the Indie world? If, so... I'll see you @ AAI from 1-3 pm slt. (10 minutes prior to the set - Acoustic concert by Mates of State). xo

Teleport to AAi now
