3 - 02/23/08 - 08:00 PM - www.secondlife.com - Blue Sun Corporation, Downing City, Persephone UAP Sim – Shows broadcast live on www.Secondlife.com were planned and organized to help mix and formulate the first TSM CD. The idea was to let public opinion help directly shape the final product. Mixes and performances were streamed via the internet to listeners playing in the various Firefly Sims online. Criticism and comments were taken, and progress went forth week by week. Secondlife is an online videogame and it is free to play. Search "places" for FIREFLY, SERENITY, or WHEDON to find lots of shiny places to visit and people to meet. This was a new concept for producing music. To have the audience available online to comment and participate we very helpful. Audiences of avatars were generally small but always enthusiastic.

1 - 02/15/08 - FARPOINT CON 2008 - Hunt Valley Marriot, Hunt Valley, Maryland – James Callis, Marina Sirtis celebrity guests – Public debut. TSM only played “Hero Of Canton” and “Ballad Of Serenity” at Farpoint (like, 30 times), but the response was enough to encourage writing possible live material.
2007
NOTE – 11/07- Terrifying Space Monkeys (TSM) began as a recording project in reaction to the current Firefly Filk music scene which had many quality bands but not much variation from traditional folk or rock music. The music Greg Edmonson composed for the show was so varied in tone and texture, that it was prime for re-interpretation. When the realization that no one had done a”Fuity Oaty Bar” dance re-mix, the die was cast. It was also decided to record a “cover” version of the episode “Train Job” and have the project be dance and electronic oriented which had not been done for Firefly Filk yet. The core idea was always, from day one, to produce a CD for charity sale at Cons and online. Thus, the Terrifying Space Monkeys was/ are born.
