If you have at all kept up with the happenings of virtual worlds, you have heard about and/or participated in Second Life and its user's accomplishments. If not, take a look at http://www.secondlife.com.

Most recently in Second Life, musical bands have been turning to audiences inside the virtual world as a means of presenting their music.

In Denver, Colorado the bands Bad Weather California, Born in the Flood and Meese played a concert. The concert was not a typical music fest with a synchronous, physically abreast audience to embrace the sounds of the band. The concert was simulcast Online, inside the world of Second Life and on ManiaTV, http://www.maniatv.com.

Online environments have gained a lot of steam for streaming productions as venues for some of the lesser-known content providers lately. It will be a short matter of time before the larger name bands and other entertainment providers start using the Internet as a regular venue for live performances.

Could these types of performances be the answer to the lost profits of illegally downloaded music files?
