Remember we told you about Cornish combo Wire Daisies entering the (yawn) virtual online world of Second Life?

Well, it’s our duty to inform you the band will be playing another gig tonight, as part of their regular residency on Second Life’s Island of Menorca.

In fact, Wire Daisies are the first band in the world to have a residency on Second Life - a pretty dubious claim to fame and no mistake.

Lead singer Treana Morris frothed: “In every sense of the word this is a live gig to an international audience, the difference being that this audience would never be captured in one place in the real world.

“When we are up on stage we are animated with our virtual instruments so that the music has a physical representation and the audience, cheer, applaud, dance and even fly around the room to our music.”

Hmm. Or you could log on to D+CFilm tonight and catch the first instalment of our Sam Raimi interview instead. The choice is, as they say, yours. Click here for details and to watch the Spider-Man 3 trailer.
