Becky: "Hello Nanceee! It's great to see you again! And I must say that I think that you are doing a wonderful job decorating the stage for the upcoming CUTS Duran Duran Tribute Concert.
Nanceee: "Why thank you, Becky!
Becky: It looks just gorgeous! But why are you up high in the catwalk painting, shouldn't you be leaving that to a stage crew member or a professional?"
Nanceee: "Well, it is the weekend you know, and people do enjoy their time off. Besides, painting is kind of therapeutic for me. And, being way up here gives me a chance to get away and think."
Becky: "Don't you fear or ever think about the risk of falling to your death?"
Nanceee: "Oh heavens no! I will have you know that I also skydive at Lake Elsinore almost every weekend. Being a celebrity and all, I get to jump with the Elite Seal Team 6.
Becky: "That's fantastic, Ma'am! I am sure that you donn all of the necessary gear - helmet, boots, parachute, etc., etc.?"
Nanceee: "Why of course! They even have me wear a special bikini when I jump for effect as well.
Becky: "A special bikini, Ma'am?"
Nanceee: "Well...They tell me that it is for better aerodynamics. It is actually a string bikini in fleshtone-camoplage. I just have to make sure that I pull on the ripcord and not one of my strings. It can get confusing with only three strings you know!"
Nanceee: "And, I have all of their autographs on it as well. They have me jump right after them. They say that they are always looking up and admiring my jumping techniques."
Becky: "Wow! How exciting and what a rush jumping with all of those gorgeous hunks! Are you ever fearful or reluctant to jump?"
Nanceee: Pfft! I have no concept of the word "Fear." Up here, I merely wear this safety strap to appease the employees. See?"
Nanceee: (points to harness around her waist)
Nanceee: Hey Hunny Bun...Would you help me with something as long as you are here?"
Becky: "Certainly. What do you need help with?"
Nanceee: "Well, do you see that ladder over there next to the building?
Becky: "You mean this tall wooden ladder, Ma'am?"
Nanceee: "Yes, that one. Please bring it over to the stage and climb up opposite of me. Duran Duran is coming soon to perform here and I need a little help hanging this banner above the stage."
Becky: "Of course, Ma'am...I am glad to be of assistance, Ma'am. I think that it is just fantastic that Duran Duran is coming to Frank's Elite to perform BTW.
Becky: OMG! They have been around for so long and one of the most successful bands of the 1980s. Many say that through MTV that they were the "Second British Invasion" of the United States."
Nanceee: "Please don't say the word "Invasion" around here too loud.
Our British clients are a bit sensitive with that terminology.
With terrorism and all, their homeland security levels have already been increased from "Tiresome" to a "Bloody Nuisance."
Becky: "I really don't see an issue Ma'am. Besides, Duran Duran's music is a beautiful opiate and very soothing to listen to. I just love the musical score they did in "A View to a Kill."
Nanceee: "Pfft! You probably didn't even realize that we have been promoting this event now for over two months, did you?
Nanceee: PFFT! I do take this very seriously I will have you know! And PLEASE do NOT speak of using any drugs here! We have a zero tolerance for drug use here at Frank's."
Becky: "I understand that Ma'am.... and with all due respect, I only used the term "Opiate" figuratively.
Nanceee: "Oh, never mind! Just be more careful with your choice of words."
Becky: "Speaking of "View to a Kill," isn't the view way up here just breathtaking? All of those people down below us look like tiny little ants, don't they?"
Nanceee: "You aren't afraid of heights now are you, Becky?"
Becky: "Why not in the least, Ma'am.
Nanceee: "That's good! Their is nothing to fear but fear itself you know."
Becky: "Is that why you DO NOT have your harness attached to anything, Ma'am?"
Nanceee: Erp! Becky... Would you kindly do me a favor and climb down now and call the fire department for me, PLEASE?
Becky: Certainly Ma'am. I'll "Break a Leg" and get them here right away for you!"
Nanceee: "And, PLEASE don't use that phrase around me right now!"
Nanceee: (hugs the scaffolding)
The Frank's Elite C.U.T.S. Duran Duran Tribute Concert was a highly energetic concert with so much interactive participation and strong music.
The concert was broadcasted by the fabulous Johnathan Hiess in both 2 channel and 5.1 digital surround sound.
Did you know that the original sound track that Johnathan used for this Duran Duran Tribute Concert was actually recorded live in its entirety with all of the five (5) original band members? That's right!
And, at the time of it's original recording, there were no replacement drummers (unlike some of their other performances).

ABOUT THE TEAM:
I cannot say enough about the following individuals whose teamwork, dedication, and hard work all contributed to make this concert very successful:
- Zeus Michalski (as Rhodes on Keyboards)
- Ynnohj Cale (as Lead Vocals Simon Le Bon)
- Magika Lederberg (as Bass Guitarist John Taylor)
- Carmen Cardone (as Drummer Roger Taylor)
- Prestodoc Jewell (as Lead Guitarist Andy Taylor)
- Johnathan Hiess (as Band Leader)
- Nanceee Sinatra (as Special Consultant to Barbarella)
And, I also want to officially dispel any and all vicious rumors that I somehow threw my panties on to the stage during their performance. Utter nonsense! Pfft!
And I must say that this was by far one of most incredible concerts I have seen here in Second Life to date.
These guys certainly outdid themselves! BRAVO!
Becky Da' Boop Trivia:

| Guess Who Came as Barbarella? |
Well, FYI they took their name from the mad scientist Dr. Durand Durand, a character in the sci-fi film "Barbarella."
This movie starred a young actress by the name of Jane Fonda. (This movie goes way back even before we were mere zygotes.)
The setting for this movie was in the far future. It was about a highly sexual woman who was assigned with the task of finding and stopping the evil Durand-Durand.

Along the way she encounters various unusual and strange people.
She could have just as easily ventured into Second Life to experience that... LOL!
