The Radio Days are over ...
The BBC has staked a claim to a virtual tropical island where it can stage online music festivals and throw exclusive celebrity parties. The rented island exists in online game Second Life and will hold its first event this weekend with bands including Muse, Razorlight and Gnarls Barkley. Second Life is here.

When you read the article it really makes sense, who cares if the concert is taking place in a real or a virtual setting. Real bands, virtual setting and I just get to listen to the music ... excellent. It makes me think of the film 'yellow submarine' with the Beatles, or the 'Gorillaz' who are becoming huge. I also know that there is a Virtual world being built and Shell were asked if they would like to put their branded service stations in the environment; but Shell declined the offer, guess it is still hard for some people to get their heads around virtual worlds.
