I haven't been getting to enough live music lately so when I logged on to sort inventory tonight (yes, not even kidding) there was a message from the Jed Heads group that the 3rd show on the 2021 Jed Luckless tour was kicking off in a few minutes. My inventory can wait!
Jed Luckless is one of my absolute favorite performers in SL. He sometimes plays solo, sometimes with a band, always interesting if you like guitar and funky jammy rock. He plays a lot of originals that have become fan favorites so don't be surprised if you go to a show and the people know the song and you don't, you'll catch on soon and it's totally worth the ride.
In addition to originals, Jed plays a lot of great covers from the classic rock archive in the same way that Phish did. He's had nights where he performs entire albums by Led Zep and the list of fun cool things just goes on and on.
If you want to catch him live, I recommend you join the group Jed Heads, I have no idea how to link to a group so just look me up in-world and join from the groups in my profile if you can't find it. They do a great job of keeping people informed of happenings without being spammy.
Just a cool vibe, highly recommended.
So also- the light show. I would be remiss if I did not mention the amazing lights and special effects put together by the amazing Moondance Parx, serious beautiful and as much a part of the show's vibe as back in the days of the Dead.
Here are some pix from the show I'm at right now, amazing jam going on right now. The show is at Gonja Land, which is a really cool venue! Check out Jed on Facebook, you can even watch RL Jed as you listen in SL! The Jedstead is his performance venue, check it out!
