<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
We met <b><a href="http://sl-birdland.blogspot.com/2012/11/maven-sings-live-birdland.html">Mavenn</a></b> soon after we returned to Second Life in 2012, after a few years away. We came by her through a mutual friend, Conte Alchemi, at the time an estate manager at the sim where we had a small island, Mezza Luna, where we settled in and reconnected. Both are amazing people and we spent time together, visiting, keeping in touch, and soon enough, Birdland was coming back and we started talking Jazz and Live Music and "Hey, Mavenn is singing at this beach venue!" and "Whaa...? Mavenn sings?!" Oh, yes. Mavenn sings.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>A talent unmatched</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
After that first hearing at the beach club, I immediately asked her to sing at the <b><a href="http://sl-birdland.blogspot.com/2012/09/grand-reopening-invitation.html">Bird's Grand (re)Opening</a></b>, and she graciously accepted, but by then the dates were not clear yet and we ended up setting Birdland's come back weekend just when Mavenn was moving in RL. So she never did get to sing at the Grand, but... I was determined to get her, so I let her settle in her new Real Life and as soon as she could perform again, I did. And was I ever right about something!...<br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
Mavenn is one of those rare talents that is so natural, so part of who she is, that being amazing on stage to her is like breathing... To her it comes with no effort and she is always a bit surprised by the audience reaction as they burst into applause, filling the screen with "Brava!", "Awesome!", "Applauses!" and such... To her it was just another song she sang but to us it was yet another unforgettable, precious moment. Yesterday, at Birdland, like <b><a href="http://sl-birdland.blogspot.com/p/google-calendar.html">every Thursday at 7 pm SLT</a></b>, Mavenn stepped on our stage and her Jazz made time disappear, sucked by her beautiful voice, her awe inspiring talent and the quality of her musical selection. But she will be back, next week, and the one after, and we will again be drawn into the magical swirl of her voice and once more time will fly away like it never was... But it was. And it will be. Again.<br />

<br />
Dix, aka Dixie Barbosa, is a dear friend and a talented partner at <b><a href="http://sl-birdland.blogspot.com/p/showgirls-burlesque.html">Showgirls and Burlesque</a></b>. Together with <b><a href="http://sl-birdland.blogspot.com/2013/03/size-matters-lot.html">Ingenue Campese</a></b>, his RL/SL partner, he helped us get Moulin Rouge on stage, many of the show's exclusive poses and set scripted parts being his creations or adaptations, and as a DJ he has taken the stage at Birdland, for our pleasure, during our <b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=156780121135582&set=a.156779871135607.53953.100004107842784&type=3&src=https%3A%2F%2Fsphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net%2Fhphotos-snc6%2F201192_156780121135582_130756373_o.jpg&smallsrc=https%3A%2F%2Fsphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net%2Fhphotos-snc7%2F314198_156780121135582_130756373_n.jpg&size=1600%2C806">2012 Halloween Event</a></b>.<br />
<br />
As a Birdland Friend, and after the interview with Ingenue, he was the obvious choice to continue the People Page series and we met at the <b><a href="http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/San%20Diego%20City/145/235/175">Balboa Theater</a></b>, where the <b><a href="http://sl-birdland.blogspot.com/2013/02/chins-up-boobs-out-its-showtime.html">Moulin Rouge</a></b> stage sets he helped with live, for a conversation about his Second Life and how he sees it. I had a wonderful time with this Dutch cousin of mine. Here is the result.<br />

<br />
<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> Well Dix, for starters thank you for your time, I know you are busy setting up Riverchapel and I appreciate you taking the time out to do this. I interviewed your better half, Ingenue Campese, and of course I had to follow up with you. All the work you guys did helping us with Moulin Rouge's production was precious and the show would not have reached the level of quality it did without you two. Having said that, let me ask you point blank... What do you do in Second Life?<br />
<b>Dix (dixie.barbosa):</b> First of all, thank you very much for having me. It's a great honor to sit here in an empty Balboa Theater with such a talented person as yourself. Secondly, you're absolutely right in saying that she's my better half. She keeps me sane in every way and away from side-tracking all the time. Which takes me to your question... I guess that's what I do most. Side-tracking. Let me explain... I see myself as a jack-of-all-trades, someone who isn't really a specialist in anything, but loves everything. And I guess in SL I do just that, a bit of everything. From creating (scripting, designing, building, animating, you name it) to socializing, to enjoying everything SL has to offer. I have so many projects half-finished on the shelf, it's not funny anymore (although... you should see my 'ATTIC' folder in my inventory, you would laugh so hard)... Not sure if that answers your question, but thinking about it... I'm not sure there is one specific thing I do best or most in SL.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>Dix was very much a part of Moulin Rouge's production</i></span></div>
<br />
<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> When we first met you we were far from imagining you and Ingenue would play the part you now do in our lives, it was some Petites event and you were the DJ, later on when we were "formaly" introduced we went like "omg, it's Dix!" and you were both in your petite form. Why did you go the Petite way and how does Second Life look like from down there?<br />
<b>Dix (dixie.barbosa):</b> I'll be honest with you. I see SL as an extension of RL. Not a replacement or a place to escape to. Because of that, I need to be able to relate to my second life up to a certain level. Because of that, I'm not too much into looking any different than a normal person would look like. I'm not as big into petites and whatnot as Ingenue. They just needed a DJ and I was there (with a bit of former DJ experience under my belt), so that's how it came together. More like a coincidence, I guess. However, DJ-ing at ShrinkyDinks (world for small avatars) did bring me to being a Blues DJ at Voodoo Blues club after that. I did have a blast there for quite a while. How SL looks from down there? Much bigger! Other than that, pretty much the same. It looks great and people who wear petite stuff, are usually less bound by common conceptions about how one should look like. So there's a much wider variety of ways how people dress up, when they're in small avatar form. And that's mighty interesting to observe.<br />

<br />
<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> It's interesting you consider SL an extension of RL, I share that point of view myself, and we happen to both have met our partners in SL and then transcend the relationship into RL. So what you do here on a technical level is also something along those lines? How much of a geek are you in RL?<br />
<b>Dix (dixie.barbosa):</b> Tough question to answer. My RL doesn't look much like SL. My RL is pretty boring, in the sense that I'm a bookkeeper/financial analyst and I have a few hobbies, but other than that, the things I do in SL are definitely things that I couldn't do in RL. In SL, for example, I'm a DJ. I don't see myself doing that in RL. In SL, I used to be a reporter for SL Newspaper (we had about 10k hits per day), but doing that in RL is a whole different ballgame. Those are just examples. In SL it's so much easier to do stuff that would take an investment, education, experience or something similar to do in RL. Now of course, it is common belief that one can do anything (in RL), as long as you put your mind to it. However, it's easier said than done, and I guess in RL there's somewhat of a shyness that holds me back on some of those things. Like the DJ-ing. I guess I share that character trait with geeks. Other than that, I don't have any other special techy talents in RL, other than being able to 'program the VCR'. So am I a geek in RL? Anyone who is deep into SL or has been at some point, I guess can be considered a geek. Other than that... nah, not so much. Just to clarify, I see SL as an extension of RL, in the sense that if RL was the base package of a program or object, SL would be a package of add-ons. Things that aren't found in the standard version, but will give you extra cool stuff on top of it.<br />

<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> I have seen your work as a journalist and you even got to <b><a href="http://secondlife-newspaper.blogspot.nl/2008/03/9-questions-for-morpheus-linden.html" target="_blank">interview a Linden</a></b> once, managing somehow to finish the job without strangling him which is a testament to your professionalism! Being a blogger myself, RL and SL, I follow a few bloggers with interest and was amused when you let me in "<b><a href="http://www.vinnytakescharge.com/" target="_blank">Vinny Takes Charge</a></b>", your pet's own blog! How did that happen?<br />
<b>Dix (dixie.barbosa):</b> I have a love for writing. I guess there is something of a journalist in me. I try to entertain and explain. However, those two have to go hand in hand, in my opinion. I could have gone Linden-bashing, and it might have been entertaining, but would the interview have been better? I don't think so. To actually get to people, you need to take them seriously. Off the record I do plenty of LL bashing when a sim restarts while I'm in the 'zone', working on a project. But it is LL that is giving us a Second Life, and has connected me to the love of my life, so I'm the most grateful person there is! So, getting back to your question: just entertaining is for short-term and you won't get far. Just explaining is boring. But combining those, is magical. That's what we do with Vinny's blog as well. Write entertainingly, while writing down our experiences as first-time parrot owners so others can use that info to their benefit. (pauses) Let me rephrase that: I have a passion for passion. I find it very interesting to get people to talk about their passions. By taking a serious interest in people, you might get a glimpse of someone's passion. From there on in, you can dig deeper. To me, that's so much more interesting than cheap entertainment. Our parrot has a passion for life in every form (and napping, and eating, and playing with his toys). Everything he does, he does with a passion. That's what I want to capture in that blog. I do some RL photography as a hobby, and my biggest challenge is to capture passion. Feel free to pick your answer.<br />

<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> And that is the perfect segway to talk about Riverchapel. You and Ingenue were moving Size Matters and finishing up the details on the Mall you own there, opened for Petite Business, and it seems like what you mentioned about sharing the experience is part of what you do in SL. So what will Riverchapel bring to us?<br />
<b>Dix (dixie.barbosa):</b> Our place on Riverchapel offers one-stop-shopping for the Micro Mesh system of small avatars. There are several systems that are only partially compatible with eachother. Yabu Petites is the main one, but there are a few other systems on the rise, like the Micro Mesh, created by (11)Design (Devious Noyes). Other than that, we have our event area, that we haven't really used yet, but we're planning to do some fun events there in the near future. But that's basically it. It started out as our own place where we could work, with the possibility of organizing some events, but the mini-mall, which started out as a side-project, has definitely become our baby.<br />

<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> Dix, I won't take your time much longer, just let me thank you for allowing me and our friends to know you better, we enjoy giving Birdland's friends a place where they can share their experiences and let others know them a little better. That's what the People Page in our blog is all about and I couldn't have found two better people to start it with than Ingenue and yourself. Thank you for being a friend and a "partner in crime" at Showgirls and Burlesque and I hope to keep you in the "payroll" for years to come.<br />
<b>Dix (dixie.barbosa):</b> Unfortunately, I'm not as talented as Ingenue (she's awesome) or as you and Blysse of course (huge amount of awesomeness there as well). All I did was help out with a few tech things. And of course I'll be more than happy and honored to keep working with Showgirls and Burlesque and Birdland in the future, wherever I can. And about our talk here... The pleasure was all mine! Thank you so much for having me!<br />

<i><span style="font-size: x-small;">Ingenue Campese </span></i></div>
<br />
Ingenue Campese is one of Second Life's pearls. She is a creator and a merchant both in world and on Second Life's Market Place on the Web and she is a busy bee! Through mutual friends she came to know Birdland and <b><a href="http://sl-birdland.blogspot.com/p/showgirls-burlesque.html" target="">Showgirls and Burlesque</a></b> and, before we knew it, she was designing <b><a href="http://sl-birdland.blogspot.com/2013/02/chins-up-boobs-out-its-showtime.html" target="">Moulin Rouge</a></b>'s wardrobe on one of the show producers' (Blysse Biondi) directions.<br />
<br />
She also designed an exclusive give away formal set, Gown and Tuxedo, for the members of the Venue Group. Both will be available at Birdland soon and all you have to do is join the group to get yours!<br />
<br />
Such an amazing woman and such an incredible talent deserve a note, and this interview is my way of saying thank you for all she and her partner, Dixie Barbosa (Dix), have done and continue doing for us, as members of Showgirls and Burlesque and Birdland's friends. We met at her new store, on Riverchapel (see links below!), the day she was moving from the previous location and talked for a few minutes. Here is the interview.<br />

<br />
<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> First of all and again, thank you for your amazing work for Moulin Rouge, I'll never get tired of thanking you and we can never repay you all you did for us. However, I can try and let people know about you and Size Matters, so let me start by asking you how long as this been going on?<br />
<b>Ingenue Campese:</b> I enjoyed making those costumes for you (smiles). It was a challenge for me, and that is how I thrive. I've had Size Matters for 7 months I think. I started creating for Petites and then Micro Mesh avatars. Prior to Size Matters I designed Formal Gowns way back in the dawn of Second Life (smiles).<br />
<br />
<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> What made you go from regular size formal wear to the Petite world and all these awesome gadgets you have available? Have you been a Petite for long? What is the attraction for you?<br />
<b>Ingenue Campese:</b> Well this could be a long winded answer, haha. I found Petites when I came back to Second Life from an almost 3 year break. I discovered them just after I decided to open a new apparel shop a year ago. My original goal was to design formal gowns and get into all the new mesh goodies. But after a few disappointing mesh purchases (I don't create my own meshes) I decided maybe that wasn't the route for me. I found the mesh avatars used the same templates as the Linden Labs ones and found the textures to look beautiful on them compared to the blurries of large avatars Even though we are tiny (smiles), haha!<br />

<br />
<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> I know! Tell me about your work process, without revealing any trade secrets, of course. How do you get your ideas and how long does it take you from drawing board to store shelf...?<br />
<b>Ingenue Campese:</b> Well these days I would say 98% of the items in my shop came from requests and the other 2% just because I wanted something to wear. So most of my ideas come from other people. My work process is highly scattered, at any time I have at least 10 works in progress. Currently I would say there is about 20 items half finished in my inventory waiting to see a store shelf. An item can take me anywhere from 1 day to 2 weeks. Depending on the detail and my focus, ha!<br />

<br />
<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> I love in world stores and I am so glad you are keeping yours. I know this very day you are transferring your items to a new store, from a previous space, and thank you for doing this interview today! I find the convenience of the Web SL Market Place fascinating, but to me, being able to walk into a real store and touch the objects and try them out on the spot is still the best way to shop. In a time where many go the Market Place way exclusively, what made you keep your in world store open?<br />
<b>Ingenue Campese:</b> I find the same thing, I enjoy shopping in-world. I often find the Market Place a bit overwhelming. I like to use it as a shopping guide. Dix and I also decided we would like to open an event area and small mall for other Micro creators. So the one stop shopping for the Micro People is very handy. Many of the creators here sell items for regular sized avatars as well. I am actually in the process of converting my entire inventory to regular sizes that will be included in the purchases.<br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i> Our view during the conversation: Riverchapel</i></span></div>
<br />
<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> So this whole Mall is yours and Dix's?<br />
<b>Ingenue Campese:</b> Yes, we built this initially for a place that Dix could DJ at, and then we built the mall on the outside.<br />
<br />
<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> That is amazing, Inge. Dix is so talented and he worked with us on some of the tech side of Moulin Rouge as well, many of the poses and set scripts on the show being his creation and/or adaptation. He is also a cool DJ. How long have you been together and what is his involvement with Size Matters?<br />
<b>Ingenue Campese:</b> Ha! I won't argue with you there! He is very talented and the love of my life! We met in 2007 right here in SL. We knew each other for a year, then decided it was time to take this to RL. I lived in the states and he in The Netherlands. We were 99.9% sure we were RL and not just SL. So I went to The Netherlands to meet him. We dated long distance for a year, taking trips to each others countries and then at one point we said, OK time to pick a country! I have been living in The Netherlands for 3.5 years now (smiles). His involvement in Size Matters a TON of encouragement and keeping me sane and making sure I don't take on too many projects!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i> The Riverchapel Mall at sunset</i></span></div>
<br />
<b>Alma Fushikizoh:</b> Let me trace back something you said that is worth a follow up... You mentioned you are working on normal sized versions of all your petite items and that you will include them in the orders. How does that work exactly?<br />
<b>Ingenue Campese:</b> Well I am trying an experiment really. Most people have sections of their shop, one for Micros, one for Regular Sized avatars, and so on. In my products when you purchase them, there will be items for Regular Sized avatars your regular clothing layers that you are used to using, Magic Rings that can be used on the [11] Design Micro Avatars and other compatible small avies. And in some case I have even included Lola: Tango Appliers. Sorry boys I didn't include them for your clothing (smiles). So we will see how it works out, I like people to have value for what they purchase, and I know a lot of people wish to have a small avatar that looks like their Regular sized one. So now they don't need to purchase two separate items.<br />

Your ability to grasp the client's idea and turn it into a real thing is one of your strongest qualities. Thank you so much for your time and I hope to have you as Showgirls Costume Designer for many years to come!<br />
<b>Ingenue Campese:</b> Alma thank you! that is the best compliment anyone has ever given me. I really enjoy bringing people's visions to life. Your show was the most fun project I have done to date. I can never really repay YOU for that experience. So thank you for letting me be a part of it (smiles).<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
We are proud to announce both the Avant PremiƩre and the Grand Opening of Showgirls and Burlesque stage adaptation of Baz Luhrman's Moulin Rouge were a success! Yesterday was the official Season start and with a full Balboa Theater, the company performed at the top of their game.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A timely sim restart took care of most of the lag problems productions of this kind contend with and we had an almost perfect run through of this 8 act play. It gives us great pleasure to keep it on stage for the coming weekends. Season will close on March 24. </div>

What an awesome night it was! We had the Earth Globe with all the timezones and New Year's countdowns showing so we went from London to Alaska - 10 solid hours with multiple events, Live singers and DJ's! And it all flew buy! Every hour the fireworks would go off and another Reveillon was lived, so we kept on going back and forth between 2012 and 2013 until there was no more 2102 to go back to!<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
It is our pleasure to announce Jackie is spreading her wings!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A Birdland exclusive until now, she is seeking other stages and we hope more people</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
will thus be able to enjoy this marvelous Jazz singer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Jackie remains loyal to the Bird, however, thinking of it as her "home base",</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and will continue to delight us with her sets every Tuesday at 7 pm SLT. As in... today!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We love you, Jackie. Thank you for supporting us.</div>

After a first surprise appearance at the Bird, last Saturday, DJ Goat Ebbage joins</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
our Misfit DJ family, spinning a regular Monday 7 pm set.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Although vintage Jazz is not uncommon at Birdland, DJ Goat's playlist is mostly made</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of classic Jazz pieces from the Between Wars period, 20's and 30's, with an</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
occasional incursion into Modern Age Jazz standards, creating a very particular niche</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for Jazz lovers all around Second Life.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Welcome to Birdland, Goat!</div>

A new regular singer steps on our stage this evening.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dilah Halostar brings her voice and musical talent to Birdland at 8 pm and will</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
do so every Monday from now on. We are very proud to count her among our live artists.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She began piano lessons at age 7 and her musical education was accomplished both at</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
school, music was her college major, and with a road band she joined soon after.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Versed in most types of music she enjoys Blues and Jazz standards in SL. Funny (at least she thinks so), warm and passionate she lights up the stage singing while playing the piano for most of the show.<br />
Oh, and her name is pronounced "Deelah" - so you know! </div>

Born to one of the Fushikizoh family traditions, DJ'ing, Anna Kurka is like a hybrid</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of Deep House and Jazz and her particular style will bring something new to Birdland!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After a long period of obscure underground parties and private rave events she agreed</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
to become a Misfit DJ with us, and only with us!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anna will spin every Sunday at 11 am - a Birdland EXCLUSIVE treat!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Woot!</div>

She is talented, she is amazing and she is authentic! She breathes Jazz and it runs in her veins like old matured red wine.

<br />
The return is now complete.<br />
We reestablished connections lost and revived the ones we had kept beyond Second Life, and got Birdland up and running. There were lots of expectations as to the way it would hold its own, and for the most part the answers were clear as we knew them before hand.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH2my9pLB1JX8J9l95GFQpZp5gl0jC0AFMevwAK1gRhcWAE0n6Md2dSYJMB8DnBVOWp7nyAkLymK4aG0QWnXIola0aNbpNNs92emQs5NPPrxABI2E-xRpqpwX-objIL4Gb7h7-YLaUx7CQ/s1600/102612+Birdland_001.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH2my9pLB1JX8J9l95GFQpZp5gl0jC0AFMevwAK1gRhcWAE0n6Md2dSYJMB8DnBVOWp7nyAkLymK4aG0QWnXIola0aNbpNNs92emQs5NPPrxABI2E-xRpqpwX-objIL4Gb7h7-YLaUx7CQ/s640/102612+Birdland_001.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
People loved it, old friends were happy to see it again and we moved on to promoting the club by adding the Live Music factor to the mix. We had a great official opening with Tamra Hayden as the main attraction and a taste of Showgirls and Burlesque, and we went on to secure a weekly line up of regular singers, among them Harry Frychester and Pippa Exonar - a SL/RL couple - and Amereck Arabello.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO8_6z_R2ywJNBq7rJg1p2jspClfUQiSs-fq6XndLl-XsheB__MksBkdLbo4W2PnolhCaVBsVY1ns_jjC69CCCm0CdYTCPaf4WSoRFZrtw-JXLo5ypwcdkm0Fuak34RzGa3ReDEwd1EHtC/s1600/102612+Birdland_005.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO8_6z_R2ywJNBq7rJg1p2jspClfUQiSs-fq6XndLl-XsheB__MksBkdLbo4W2PnolhCaVBsVY1ns_jjC69CCCm0CdYTCPaf4WSoRFZrtw-JXLo5ypwcdkm0Fuak34RzGa3ReDEwd1EHtC/s640/102612+Birdland_005.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
We had a good time with these artists, and they brought magical and unique moments to Birdland, in particular Harry, who we love dearly because of his amazing talent as a singer as well as his unparalleled and irreverent wit as an entertainer. As much as we'd love to keep them forever, at this point in time we were forced to make hard choices. Real Life interfered and new responsibilities demand our attention, so we had to let go of Harry and Pippa. Amereck had RL responsibilities to look after and so we lost him too, but truth be told he would follow as well, since we have to cut back on all expenses.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5k5VPUu90OOwSHMF5pKfs7tbUjZqUokPH0iQQZJJNAQD9dvKPa8HBURX_3AgG5kiKkGicW1r40_THDy_ghkluqvwOAHcJ-WwVnCsem2erksp_QGWCYx-3i6kBetShUirc9sUub09lDZlm/s1600/102612+Birdland_004.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5k5VPUu90OOwSHMF5pKfs7tbUjZqUokPH0iQQZJJNAQD9dvKPa8HBURX_3AgG5kiKkGicW1r40_THDy_ghkluqvwOAHcJ-WwVnCsem2erksp_QGWCYx-3i6kBetShUirc9sUub09lDZlm/s640/102612+Birdland_004.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
That leaves us with the club itself and the singers who agree to perform without fees involved, investing their talent and time to help us keep it running. We have a few of those: Kitty Zeddmore, who has been with us for a few weeks now, Crooner Carlucci and now Jackie Lefko. They are amazing artists and we are privileged to have them on our stage. They may, however, be too few too late.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxBjt-walLhAO0xPgOVE424dOxIz6lRsy5J285J3SNEoDN3hLA54LiG7yvTrgjMZxII3uytbFpSqUVwO_ZTyrQ15oCbojdzqqCr4XbvFT1MOQdtFGbG65sjM43UikLhNBBp7BVbvg6WFVn/s1600/102612+Birdland_003.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxBjt-walLhAO0xPgOVE424dOxIz6lRsy5J285J3SNEoDN3hLA54LiG7yvTrgjMZxII3uytbFpSqUVwO_ZTyrQ15oCbojdzqqCr4XbvFT1MOQdtFGbG65sjM43UikLhNBBp7BVbvg6WFVn/s640/102612+Birdland_003.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Though the reality is this decision should have been made sooner, as RL hit us, I in particular am too attached to the Bird to let it go, so we held on. But it's time for a reality check. Without support from our patrons there is no Birdland. Circumstances changed dramatically and we can no longer sustain it without that support, much as I would love to. So we are giving it another week. If by this time next week things remain the same, Birdland will be folded once more and it will remain safely put away until a better time.<br />

As for me and Blysse, we have Showgirls to look after, and that is something that involves a lot of friends that have become a second family to us. We will not let them down. Our stage is settled in San Diego City, at the Balboa Theater, a venue put at our disposal by Ayesha Lytton, Tamra Hayden's assistant and a Showgirl herself, and we will continue rehearsing there and bringing our shows to the public there as well.<br />
You will learn about it here too, since this blog will live on to perpetuate Birdland's legacy and prepare the ground for a future, better, day.<br />

So if you want to show us your support, come visit us and help us keep Birdland up as long as possible under these circumstances, if you can't help, we understand and hope you at least come see it and enjoy it while it still stands. We thank you all for your support so far, appreciate all you can do at this time and hope to see you soon, either at the Bird or the Balboa.<br />
<br />
Love,<br />
