Rezzable and Language Lab have come together to celebrate diversity in music and nationalities by hosting the Global Musical Festival. During the month of September, every weekend, events will be held at Rezzable's clubs: Greenies, Haze, and Crimson, with the focus on showcasing different styles of music. But it's there's more about the Global Music Festival than just 'maxing the streams':
The DJ's
Participating DJ's in the Global Music Festival are Doubledown Tandino, Krakov Letov, Swina Allen, Otawan Fouquet, LilTank Thibedeau, Evermore Noel, Santos Dagger, DJ Indigo, Summer Delight, Adamatic Aeon, Nova Sakigake, MoShang Zhao, Bianca Darling, December Dollinger, Heroin Allen, Derfel Birmingham, Serinajane Loon, Aslyn Dufaux, Vampires Bulloch, Amanda Shinji, Aidan Zabibha, Mabb Dilweg, Azufr3 Catteneo, Cataplexia Numbers, Mavi Beck, Dreams Lightcould, Becca Nishi and Jarl Soderstorm.
Each of them will play one or more sets during the four weeks the festival lasts. In the end, the public will decide which one they liked best. That DJ - or DJess - will receive a cash prize of 50,000L$ and 50,000L$ worth of virtual merchandise. We'll furnish them with merchandise from each sim & genre, from Stratos' cars, over fashionable Crimson Shadow outfits and the funny bearded lady from Carnival of Doom to Greenies Hooverboards and bow ties.
The best way to find out which DJ performs when & where - Crimson, Haze or Greenies - is to check the event calendar at the Global Music Festival homepage.

Festival Goodie Bag
From experience we all know you should not go to a festival unprepared. So we have packed a whole lot of Goodies for you to use during the festival:
Festival Backpack
This superdeluxe backpack by Kaeli contains all the other festival goodies mentioned here. Just pick it up at one of the locations - look for the sleeping Greenie that's handing them out -, wear it, and you will automatically receive all goodies. Besides being great gift wrapping, this waterproof backpack has some added functionality: you can choose which flag you want it to bare (we added a wide variety) just so you can give it a nice personal touch.
It's also an easy portal to check on the latest Global Music Festival news, as clicking the Languagelab notepad will take you to languagelab.com and touching the GMF flyer will take you to the festival's dedicated page gmf.rezzable.com.
Festival Wellies
Nothing as much fun at a real life festival, as a good pour of rain, and nothing as handy then as a solid, waterproof pair of wellies. Just to be sure - you never know when sea levels suddenly rise! - we have included a fashionable pair of yellow festival wellies for your fashion pleasures, with a little extra! You must surely know that 'tic tak tic tak' sound boots make in Second Life? Well, we thought we could be better. As wellies on a festival are made for mud and sopping sounds, we've included those. Don't worry, although it does take a while to get tired of it, a simple chat command will turns this off.
Sleep Learning Greenie
This really cute plush Greenie dreams of being the next ambassador for Greenies, but first, it has to work on it's knowledge of languages a bit. No easier way to learn languages than in your sleep? Wrong! Languagelab might just have a better way, involving virtual worlds! ;) Wear this cute teddy and rock him to language-learning-sleep. Want to know what he's learning? Just click him, and he'll tell you!
Concert Lighter
A solid, silver lighter for use when listening to that great artists you always dreamed of watching. Wait for sunset - or cheat using world > day settings - and raise those arms in the air for an awesome particle effect. Colourable and ... it overrules the typing animation, so you do not need to fear you'll burn your hands.
Headphones
Regardless if you're small-headed, large-headed, stubborn-headed or a Greenie, we've included a fitting pair of headphones. Excellent for use by our DJs, but even if you can't spin tunes, no need to admit that. Headphones make great fashion items!
You can pick up the festival backpack for free at Crimson Shadow (TP), Tunnel of Ligh (TP), Carnival of Doom (TP), The Dump (TP), Black Swan (TP), Rezzable Cascade (TP) and last but not least Greenies Home (TP) and Lawn (TP).
Captured Proverbs Photography Contest
What would music be without without the visual arts that go with it, right? The 'Captured Proverbs' SL Photo Contest is not your typical photo contest; it is a celebration of the RL diversity that helps make SL special. This is your chance to showcase your Real Life Culture by taking the best photo in SL that represents something typical to your home country & culture: it's proverbs.
