Gunner Earns His Star!

What a special performance it was!  DJ Gunner von Phoenix had earned his STAR in the Dance Queens Walk of Fame by DJing an event on the Dance Queens sim, but he wanted to do a mini-show to celebrate his dancing, and so he did.  A lot of people do not know that Gunner can create dances as well as DJ.  It has been a while since he took to the stage as a choreographer.  He proudly presented some of his favorite dances in a mini-show on September 25th, performing on the memorable Zhaza Zerbino stage.  Family and friends gathered to watch, many of whom did not even know he, at times, does choreography and imaginative dance creation in Second Life.  Let us take a look at the show and read his interview, getting to know him a bit better.


THE SHOW

Dead Man Walking

Sexin' On the Dance Floor with Pea, Cio, Mona, Yancy, Rosie

THE INTERVIEW

1. How and when did you find Second Life?

A friend back in 2009 was doing the IRC Gor Chat. 

2. How and when did you discover virtual dance?

Baby dancing in Gor started me. Then when she made the leap to Main stream I figured "I can do that".

3. I know picking is hard, but name a few of your favorite dances that you have ever created:

"Mack the Knife" is one of my very first dances and still my fav. Also Black Sabbith The Wizard. Booty Swing (I did at the show).

4.  Did you have any mentors when you were learning to dance that you'd like to wave to?

Yes "Wife of my Soul Baby Von Phoenix.

5. What is your favorite thing about virtual dance creation?

Not the building, that’s for sure. The Choreograph and mover work.

6. What is your least favorite thing about virtual dance creation?

Building the sets.

7. What advice would you give to someone who is new to virtual dance?

Do not take it seriously!! It is fun and when stuff happens.  Laugh it off.

8. If you have your own dance troupe, please tell a little bit about it, and its history.

The Empire Room’s Elysium Cabaret.  It all started as a place where my Baby and Paul’s Jilley would have a place to dance whatever they wanted.  Over the years, with the best dancers, in SL we are kind of well-known.

9. What is your favorite food, favorite drink, and please tell us about any pets that you have.

Fav Food - Coffee and Fav Drink - Coffee.  Two Whippets and two spoiled cats.

10. What activities other than dance do you enjoy?

11. Is there anything else you'd like to add?

Yes, SL dance is a good outlet for creativity.  I cannot stress this enough to never forget, do not take SL seriously.  We come have fun.  That is what SL is for.  So HAVE FUN.


THE CEREMONY

A Special Star Ceremony for Some Extra Special People

 It was such a privilege to be able to honor some extra special people this week at Dance Queens!  This was to honor Those Who Give, some of the dedicated people who give their time and efforts to help keep the dance community informed and help dancers when they can.  We thank them for their service to the dance community, they have more than earned their stars in the Dance Queens Walk of Fame.  Please find the ceremony notes below and then read their interviews to learn a bit more about these gorgeous people!


THE CEREMONY

Ladies and Gentlemen, we are here today for a very special Walk of Fame paver placing.  Today, we honor Those Who Serve.  These are very special people who generously give life's most precious commodity to the dance community: Time.  These people have given countless hours, day after week after month after year, helping people in Second Life's dance community in numerous ways.

They manage the Dance Queens group, which is the hub for all things dance-related in our virtual world.  They contribute to the blog, calendar, Info Center, assisting people that call out for help in group chat, and keeping the group informed as to upcoming events.  These people keep Dance Queens alive, functioning and productive.  And they do not get paid for their service.  They are, at times, even abused by some people.  But they are bonded with one another in service to this essential group.

Dance Queens is the go-to for people needing to communicate across the grid about dance-related issues, and Those Who Serve are the people who make that possible.  We thank you for your service and for caring about Dance Queens and the dance community... our extended dance family.  These STARS in the Dance Queens Walk of Fame will now be placed.  Also, you will receive a STAR to hang on the wall in your home or at your home venue.

We also acknowledge with gratitude Dutchess Button, who gave us a home when our sim was taken from us with no warning, when the person we rented the sim from left Second Life and abandoned his sims.  Thank you Dutchess for looking after us and helping us to have a stable home!

We appreciate your hard work, skills and dedication.  IT IS NOTICED!  We see you.  We thank you for your contributions to virtual dance in Second Life and wish you many years of dance fulfilment.  We also hope that all you sow in giving will come back to you as a harvest of appreciation from those who benefit from your loving work.

Thank you so much everyone for coming out to this most special and important Dance Queens Walk of Fame ceremony!  We hope you appreciate the passion and service of these dedicated people, leaders in our dance community.  Thank you, Those Who Serve... our Dance Queen Leaders... for serving and helping to keep the dance community informed!  Congratulations!  Wishing you all appreciation and fulfillment!


THE INTERVIEWS

Beebs Carfield


1. How and when did you find Second Life?

Way back in 2008 I ventured onto Second Life. Me and a bunch of friends from another virtual world came over and decided to check this one out.

2. How and when did you discover virtual dance?

My now husband Pan had been coming to dance shows and brought me along to one. I was hooked ever since!

3. Please tell us your history of serving the dance community.  When did you start, how did you come to do it, and what are your current service activities?

It all started with going to shows, then Jilley asking me if I could sit in a chair, and she put me in one of her dances. It then went to back up dancing, and filling in for hosting! I host at several theaters, Moonshadow, TerpsiCorps, Noir, and Laughing Hearts. I also backup dance at all these theaters as well as Kinetics!  I was drafted to start helping at Dance Queens by Webby a few years ago.

4.  What do you most enjoy about serving the dance community?

I love all the creativity and personalities of the members of the dance community.

5. What do you least enjoy about serving the dance community?

Drama, but that's true in all aspects of life.

6. What advice would you give to someone who would like to promote the dance community?

I'd tell people to just come and stay for an hour and be amazed by the talent and creativity of the choreographers.

7. What is your favorite food, favorite drink, and please tell us about any pets that you have.

My favorite food is Mexican/tacos.. and I'm addicted to zero sugar Wild Cherry Pepsi!  I have one furbaby, a black male cat named Ezra!

9. What activities other than dance do you enjoy?

SHOPPING!


DIVALIN MAGIC


1. How and when did you find Second Life?

I was poking around the internet looking for chat channels.  I like to think SL stuck out its foot and tripped me so I'd find it!  But this isn't my first avatar - THAT avatar was created in 2006.  And she still has her plastic hair! 

2. How and when did you discover virtual dance?

My history with creative SL dance didn’t start here. I found an alternative to SL (the now defunct InWorldz), and it was there that I was introduced to the genre. I was hooked. When I came back to SL, I actively searched for dance shows. It wasn’t long before the urge to choreograph and to learn all the tools of the trade hit me, and I haven’t looked back since.

3. Please tell us your history of serving the dance community. When did you start, how did you come to do it, and what are your current service activities?

I’ve been involved in the dance community for quite some time, but my role as a manager at Dance Queens truly solidified my commitment. I started out as someone who simply enjoyed dancing and gradually found myself wanting to help more.

4. What do you most enjoy about serving the dance community?

What I enjoy most is the energy and creativity that the dance community brings together. Seeing someone grow from their first tentative steps to commanding a stage is incredibly rewarding. It’s a privilege to be part of a community that’s so supportive and vibrant.

5. What do you least enjoy about serving the dance community?

The least enjoyable part is trying to remember to get the DQ notices out when it's my turn!! It's possible I may have forgotten a time or two. 0.o

6. What advice would you give to someone who would like to promote the dance community?

My advice is to be passionate and consistent. Promoting the dance community isn’t just about putting on events; it’s about nurturing relationships, and most importantly, it’s about people first.

7. If you have your own dance troupe, please tell a little bit about it, and its history.

I am a very proud founding member of Kinetics Dance.  I had never imagined that, together with the other founders and managers, building a troupe was even possible.  But we did it, and it's exciting and scary all at the same time. 

8. What is your favorite food, favorite drink, and please tell us about any pets that you have. 

I have cats - I'm on the edge of crazy cat lady!  And the bevvy would be wine of course, red wine. I'm pretty flexible about all types of cuisine - but I draw the line at liver.  Blech.

9. What activities other than dance do you enjoy?  

My main activity in SL, outside of dance, is chatting with people.  I'm terrible in crowds, but love to chat one-to-one. Even better if it's a voice chat over a cup of good coffee.

10. Is there anything else you'd like to add?

SL is my little slice of home-away-from-home, a place where I can unwind, connect, and be creative in ways that real life doesn’t always allow. Over the years, I’ve met some of the most talented, kind-hearted, and inspiring people here. The friendships and collaborations we build feel just as real as anything outside of SL. It’s a special community where we get to express ourselves, share our passions, and create something bigger together. For that, I’m truly grateful.


DUTCHESS BUTTON


1. How and when did you find Second Life?

*** I heard of second life in February of 2008.

2. How and when did you discover virtual dance?

*** I started dancing as a cheerleader and moved to a dance troupe in 2018.

 3. Please tell us your history of serving the dance community.  When did you start, how did you come to do it, and what are your current service activities?

I danced as a cheerleader and created routines for half time shows with Spot on group formation in mumbles about 10 years ago.  Then was recruited and taught how to do choreographed dances at Dance Xcetera from 2018.  I left this group almost three years, and danced for a few months under Adori Resident at her club for L'Envie. 

In addition, I was the exclusive choreographer for AIM modeling agency and you may contact Essy Luv. In this capacity, I did various routines both dancing and also walked the models per their request.  On average the routine consisted of approximately 12-18 models.  The song was usually provided by the owner and was given freedom to interpret the song. On average I did 5-8 routines a year, including Earth day, Mr. Virtual man, AIM Annual Halloween shows and designer premiers such as Clef de Peau.

I've presented routines for Noir Neverland Cabaret, Erotique Burlesque and The Empire Room.

In addition I have performed in Lighting the way while being in various groups, such as the Titan cheerleaders, Dance Xcetera, and MADDS.  Under Adori's direction we did Dance Queens challenge in 2021, where she built the routine and I built the stage.

4.  What do you most enjoy about serving the dance community?

I have enjoyed being anonymously helping others.

5. What advice would you give to someone who would like to promote the dance community?

To be kind to others that don't know of our community.  Invite them to a performance or two and tell them there is nothing like it in the grid.

 6. What is your favorite food, favorite drink, and please tell us about any pets that you have.

I love Mediterranean and French food, alas I love a good whiskey and white sangria, and I have two devils that pass themselves off as Pomeranian dogs.

 7. What activities other than dance do you enjoy?

I enjoy taking pictures and lately I've been teaching myself to do videos of dance routines.

 

We thank these selfless people for giving their time and resources to keeping Dance Queens productive and functional.  Thank you for holding us together!  Congratulations on earning your stars in the Dance Queens Walk of Fame.  We wish you much joy and fulfilment in your future time with Dance Queens!  With love and appreciation for all you give and all you do!
