Colosseum of Rock ”ROCKSTAR” of the Week!

Well on Tuesday June 23 Vanguard Alter will be having his real life B-day. So in celebration we are featuring him as our first C.O.R. Rockstar of the week. Now this is so appropriate because when asked what song best describes you he states “Rockstar By Nickleback and that silly Avatar song”. Both describe his feelings on my life as it is and as it could be in SL. “I wanna be a Rock star = I wanna be an Avatar” So congratulations Vanguard our Rockstar :)

Born in February 2008 into the world of SL, “Van” comes with many years experience in online gaming. One of the neat things is finding friends from other games and meeting them in SL as well. His philosophy in Second Life is Fun Fun Fun. He hates drama as every one should and sees SL as an escape from RL for a couple of hours a day.

In getting to know “Van” he is very even tempered and grounded. Something you don’t find in SL very often. He is loyal and dedicated to himself and his friends. He and his Bro DJ Insane are opening a club called The High Voltage Rock Café. And yet he says “don’t worry Zaza, Maxx And Oz I ain’t leavin’ the COR!!!!” Once you come to the C.O.R. you are part of the family and don't want to go!

“Van” found the Coliseum of Rock a few months ago. He found it to be a fun club with great people. The owners Zaza, Maxx and Oz are some of the best people in SL. The club is far less laggy than other clubs. Shortly after Van started DJ’ing he started playing at the C.O.R. once a week (Thursdays 1-3 pm slt). He has great fun and has met a lot of nice people at the club. Now he plays at C.O.R. twice a week Wednesdays and Thursdays both from 1-3 pm slt.

One of Vanguard’s all time favorite rock track would be Sweet child of mine by Guns n roses. He says it has a brilliant Guitar solo at the beginning and near the end of the song. It reminds him of an old flame that he never got the chance to be with when he was a kid.

So come to the Colosseum on Wednesday and Thursday from 1-3 SLT and get to know DJ Vanguard Alter for yourself. He is one of the many awesome DJ’s bring the tunes to C.O.R. for us all. Hope to see you there!
