buttons66 Posted April 24, 2020 Author Share Posted April 24, 2020 Kick-Off Concert: Scotty McCreery @Firefly Tavern Hey folks, the big day is finally here: #ScottyXCooee After months of hard work and close cooperation with U.S. singer/songwriter Scotty McCreery and our partners, we will bring you our absolute first virtual concert in Club Cooee this whole weekend! Brace yourself for a unique concert experience like you have never seen before - Scotty McCreery is not only the first musician to officially be featured in our world of Club Cooee, he actually is also the first country music artist ever to do a virtual concert as a 3D avatar in an online gaming world. In case you didn't know: in 2011, Scotty McCreery made history as the youngest male artist of any genre as well as the first country music artist when his debut album entered at No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard Top 200 chart (after having won the 10th season of American Idol that same year). Since then, he has won numerous awards and has become a multi-platinum country music artist with fans around the world. His songs "This Is It" and "Five More Minutes" are both No. 1 hits in the Billboard Country charts. His current single is "In Between" (from his album Seasons Change). It's therefore a great honor for us to present him and some of his top songs exclusively to you this weekend! Our whole team has worked very hard to make this virtual concert possible. We hope you like how it all turned out. For an even nicer concert experience, there's a FREE GIFT waiting for you at the Firefly Tavern! Enjoy the show with Scotty McCreery and don't forget to bring your friends. Isn't going to a virtual concert together in Club Cooee a cool #StayHome group activity? The show kicks off TODAY at the Firefly Tavern at 11:00 am Central Time! Hope to see y'all there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume the audience avatars might change according to who is on and manipulating their avatars You might check at a later playing to see if audience changes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+sinycalone Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 I found out that those numbers attached to each listing (24/28, 6/28 etc.) mean the max # allowed at one time is 28 people, and the first number is how many are already in that room.
