Cartoon of The Day: Putting Your Foot Down

 

 Taken at the Raglan Shire Wootstock. At one point, the performer Merryjest had his foot in the air, which I caught on camera.

 

Sometimes a guy's just gotta put his foot down about something.

Cartoon of The Day: Tapir

 

 Taken at the Wootstock. Among those there was someone in something I hadn't seen before: a tapir avatar. For those who don't know, they're South American herbivores with a long, prehensile nose. 

 

While more related to rhinos and horses than anything else, they certainly look like some small elephants somehow made it over across the Atlantic.

"Wootstock" In Raglan Shire

 

 From Friday  August 15 to Sunday August 17, the "Wookstock" music festival, Raglan Shire's musical tribute to Woodstock, took place. A number of DJs, and live performers, played music on stage, and attendance was well over 50 frequently.

 

 One of the first up was Nivor The Singing Chicken. When he was singing Weird Al's "Eat It," the foxes had a good laugh after the line, "have some more chicken." 

 

 Later on Friday evening was Merryjest Starchild, who sang a variety of songs, including "Nessun Dorma." 

 

 Among Saturday's performers were Jaycatt Nico and Frogg Marlowe, or "Effinjay." They did the show in their own tiny avatars. 

 

 A great time was had by all.

"Wootstock" In Raglan Shire

 

 

This weekend, the "Wootstock" concert took place in Raglan Shire. This tribute to Woodstock lasted from Friday July 21, starting off at 1PM SL time, and lasted until sometime after 8PM Sunday July 23. 

 

There were a number of DJs, notably on Friday, but the majority of the music was by live performers. While many of them were local talent like Caleb Kit and bFlat Unplugged (above) , there were plenty of singers from outside the community, such as Jaycatt Nico and Frogg Marlowe. One group of performers, Keeba Tammas &The Tiny Maniacs, had people from both in and out of the community.

Dropping by Saturday, I missed Keeba and the Maniacs, but did see a few others. Among them, singer Maximillion Kleene. Usually in a human avatar, he was in a "Greenies" avatar, one of the aliens in the classic giant room sim in Second Life's earlier days.

It was a fun, lighthearted event that Raglan Shire is noted for delivering. Some in the audience added to the funnery of the occasion. There was also a food stand that had it's own share of grins.

Weekend in Brief

 

 There were a number of things happening this weekend. The "Wootstock" at Raglan Shire took place with plenty of live music. Also was the start of the "SL Fandom Con" which had plenty to see, shop, and it's own live music events. An event called "Furchanted" was taking place. The exhibits of last weekend's "Burn2" summer spinnoff event were still up to see, and more.

More on these and other happenings later.

"Wootstock" At Raglan Shire

 *

In the tiny community of Raglan Shire this weekend, it was three days of "Peace, Love, and Waffles" as they held their "Wootstock" festival. This whimsical tribute to the 60s Woodstock festival took place at a skybox over Raglan Shire over three days from Friday July 22 to Sunday July 24.

Various DJs and live musicians would play on stage, some of them local talent. Friday had "Effinjay" (Jaycatt Nico and Frogg Marlowe). Saturday had Keebas and the Tiny Maniacs. 

Sunday had performers such as Songbird, Maximus, and Quartz.

Gypsy Witch Sands (GypsyW1tch Resident) had a rather trippy-looking performance with particles giving the place a psychedelic look. "What ya put in these waffles?" "~~ WOW MAN!! WINTER WOOTSTOCK IS COOL!!!!! THE COLORZ.. ZOMG LOOK AT THE COLORZZZZ WOWWWWWW ~~"

"~~ OK we've had some words that theres some BAD PANCAKE PUFFS ON A STICK circulating in the crowd! ~~ ~~ PLEASE Stay Away from the Pancake Puffs on a Stick!! you could Get Violently Ill!! ~~"

It was a fun tribute to the 60s.

By Nitwacket on July 27, "Keeba and The Tiny Maniacs at Wootstock 2020, Raglan Shire. What Isolation? Party On Raglan!" The 2020 edition of Wootstock was a 60's tribute with a touch of 2020 thrown in with the mask, and of course Raglan Shire tiny zaniness. And that's just catnip they're smoking ... probably.

For pictures of the event, check out the "Friends of Raglan Shire" Flickr page. Andrea Jones also took a number of Keeba Tammas' event.

A Busy Weekend

Quite a bit happened this weekend. There were two tributes to the Woodstock. One was the "Wootstock" at Raglan Shire (above). The other was the "Burnstock" at Burning Man Deep Hole. There was also the Veterans Isle fundraiser for Homes For Our Troops.
