Ever wanted to go out somewhere without leaving your house?  Second Life gives you that chance.  If you are looking for live music, but don't want to drive to the bar and put up with the noise, pull up a sofa and log into Second Life.  You'll find musicians from all over the world performing live (well, "virtually" live) at all hours of the day and night.

Stand up comedy has been growing more slowly as SL entertainment, but SL comedy is a growing niche for the past 3 years.  For much of that time, The Chuckling Priestman has provided a safe haven for comics in SL.  Founded in May 2008 by two comics from Calgary, The Chuckling Priestman Comedy Club has been the go-to place for comedy in Second Life.

In recent months, a new club name Jokers sprung up on the grid, run by the wonderful Milou Adored.  After a few months of successful shows, including some of the top names in SL comedy such as JW Steampunk, Joey Rookstown, and Declan Barnett, Milou and I have decided to join forces and merge The Chuckling Priestman and Jokers.  The new club will run at Old Hollywood, in the bay, on inner tubes, as seen from the shot above.

Thursday nights at 7PM SLT (Second Life Time is the same as Pacific Time), The New Chuckling Priestman Jokers Comedy Club will continuing to present the best in SL comedy.  Opening the new location this coming Thursday (Sept 2nd. 2010) will be JWheels Carver, the miracle man on wheels.

Come check us out.  Through the years, The Chuckling Priestman and SL comedy have had some big names come through.  One of the founding partners of the CP, Chuckling Darwin (aka Derek Sweet) is now one of the top new comics in Western Canada, having recently opened for Doug Stanhope.  Orienalation Carver (aka Sami Shah) took his weekly show at the CP and turned it into a successful TV show on Pakistan's Dawn TV, News Weakly.  You never know what future star will next walk across our stage.

Stand up comedy is a growing niche in the SL entertainment world.  Come experience a live comedy show from the comfort of your living room every Thursday night at the New Chuckling Priestman.  And look for more comedy on Friday nights starting Sept 17th when the Funny Bone Comedy Club re-opens its doors after a summer hiatus.  Come to Second Life, for the best in stand up comedy, virtually live.
