The virtual reality band Aztech Rising will be playing in the award-winning world LEAVES - August 5th, 2007. 12:00 noon PST (5:00 PM VRT)
The band has wanted to play in Leaves ever since they launched their tour of the Active Worlds Universe in 2005.
Since then they have played a wide range of concerts from virtual weddings to Halloween and Valentines Day parties, including openings for a number of group art shows on Artshiway and other AW world Anniversary parties. One of their biggest events was the hugely successful Earth Day concert in VR5 at Nidus Stadium in 2006 which led to a second appearance during that same summer. As well, the band was thrilled to play at an incredible light and magic extravaganza inside the AWEC Space Ship in 2006 and they were honored to be asked to play the AWEC Independence Day Celebrations in 2006! This year they threw an impromptu concert in February for their roadie Dodgy who often videotapes and photographs their concerts, it was a fabulous 50th birthday held in the Artshiway media theatre.

Having recently just completed a new album called "Where Spheres Touch" (see web site www.aztechrising.com for music video), the band looks forward to a debut performance of the album at the concert on Leaves and will be introducing a featured guest composer Marcia Meyer with a collaborative set of eclectic sounds from yet another new album called Beyond One.
The band can't promise this will be another Woodstock, but no world is as 'virtually outdoors' as Leaves and it is summertime and the livin' is always easy in Active Worlds! This will be Leaves' first outdoor musical event of this kind and there may be some surprise appearances!
