Xanadu Grand-Reopening Tomorrow

After a period of inactivity, the "Xanadu" classic rock club will soon be back in business. Perri Prinz, the current co-owner and manager, announced the club will have four events this week, starting with a Grand Re-Opening party on Tuesday at 8PM SL time. The theme will be "Come As You Are."

Xanadu, sometimes called "Perri's Xanadu" or "The Vinyl Museum," was established in 2009. It is owned by Perri and RECoyote Mindes, and is named for the movie in which the Pan Pacific Auditorium is restored to a nightclub. There have been a few periods of hiatus when real-life interfered with the management, but the building has always stood there since it's construction. Among some of the more noteworthy events were the Newser's Fifth Anniversary party and the "Fallout Party" in which Perri played tunes from the time period the game gets much of it's music. The club went inactive in July last year.

Currently, Perri is looking for more DJs, and an assistant manager. For now, it's schedule is Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 8-10PM SL time.

Built by RECoyote Mines and DJ Perri Prinz (who also does Sci-fi/Fantasy fiction), the place has the look of the place in the movie "Xanadu," and is well decorated with the look of a 70's classic rock club. Wesley Regenbogen stopped by to take a look at the location and have a few words with one of the co-owners.

"The Vinyl Museum" Reopens

On Monday December 2 at 8PM SL time, a club in the HV Community sim became active once again. Perri Prinz, a sci-fi writer and a popular DJ was reopening her club. It was now known as "The Vinyl Museum," a reference to Perri specializing in 60s and 70s music.

The Green Meadow Lands ballroom has morphed into The Vinyl Museum, and is now beginning its first event.  Come on up and enjoy some happy vinyl era music played by vinyl era bunnies.  And if they get enough listeners the bunnies might even throw some money around.  The theme is do your own thing or come as you are.  We don’t care what you wear, as long as you look good. The prize is 200 L for every 5 listeners we see on the DJ board.


I had talked to Perri earlier. She was confident she could now keep the club up and running on a regular basis. With few others having events at 8PM, she decided to play at that time slot and keep at it to build an audience over time. She would also have some help, HollyAnn Lapina (Lacy Carver). On nights that Perri would be unable to play, HollyAnn would perform in her place. Also, there would be no themes. Every night would be a "come as you are" with all visitors eligible to win as long as they were dressed decently.

The crowd of the grand opening was somewhat small, a little more than a dozen. But a happy time was had by all. More cash was added to the board and the 200L became 2000L. At the end of the party, it was announced that the votes were evenly divided among four winners.

The club has been around for quite a well. It was originally called Club Xanadu, but with other Xanadu style clubs around, people called it "Perri's Xanadu." The name would persist even when the club was renamed the Green Meadows Club.

Set on a platform high over HV Community, the club is based on the Pan Pacific Auditorium, which was the building used in the movie Xanadu. The interior is dominated by a discotech dance floor. Having the look of a disco club from the past, the place has a number of posters and album covers up. The stacks of vinyl records

The Vinyl Museum will play every night at 8PM and is at HV Community (67, 207, 4051).
