Stop #10: Glastonbelli Stage in The Campbell Coast

We return once again to the mainland continent of Corsica and The Campbell Coast for this installment of Cranston Travels The Grid, The Glastonbelli Stage.  Brilliantly crammed into another skybox build that, if you didn't know any better, looks to be a seamless continuation of Campbell Coast amenities, such as Stonehenge and The Artists Village (where the Bellisserian Embassy is, in fact it's actually on the same parcel) that have been mentioned in this blog before.

In fact, so seamless is the build that they have actually created a teleport experience which is subtly placed in the middle of ground level in the Campbell Coast region of Sunstream, so there are multiple ways to get to the Glastonbelli Stage.  Just walk through the Stonehenge inspired arch, accept the experience, and effortlessly teleport up to the Glastonbelli build.  These Campbell Coasters really know how to integrate and immerse their visitors.

Once you're on the grounds of Glastonbelli, you'll see how they have lovingly created a commune that any self-respecting hobo or burnout might call home.  Chock full of munchies, drinks, a dispensary for a certain substance, as well as a number of tents and gypsy wagon, they cater to a very laid-back lifestyle here.  There is another installation of Stonehenge and an ancient ruin here, as well.  I'm sensing an artist metaphor here.

There are also a number of amusements scattered throughout the build, such as this carousel.  All have a number of wonderful and amusing animations and poses, which allows all you shutterbugs out there to have another splendid backdrop for your photographic needs.  But enough about the distractions.  As the sign says, let's head to the Glastonbelli stage!


It is by the ticket booth near the stage itself that you'll find the BBB stamp dispenser, so no worries about finding that.  The stage itself looks to be designed for open concerts (in other words, unless I'm mistaken, artists and performers have the ability to plug their stream URL into the land and start an impromptu concert.)  The stage itself has a brilliant backdrop with musically themed videos playing behind the performer.

There's plenty of seating space, as well as a dancing figure in front, so no matter what level of performer you are, you'll always have an audience of at least one here at Glastonbelli.  The stage also has a microphone set up dead center, complete with dancing and talking anims, so even a budding comedian or poet could start a show here for their adoring fans.


Another installation here near the Glastonbelli stage is The Campbell Coast Record Shop, or Record Barn, as curator Owl Dragonash calls it.  Owl has provided yet another home for musicians and DJs, because inside this barn you can sample the latest live performers in Second Life, complete with a way to obtain booking information.  If you're a venue owner, looking for SL talent, The Record Barn could be your source!

Not that I'm biased or anything, for I also happen to call The Record Barn home.  So for all those venue owners looking for a taste of Jazzy, Swingy, Bluesiness (Yes, it's a word!) look no further than Cranston Yordstorm and The Storm Front Blues Band.  Thanks to Owl Dragonash for making this type of communication between artists and potential venues possible.

  3. GlastonBelli is so authentic you can almost smell the PortaLoos. The mud doesn't stick quite so much as at RL Glastonbury though.
