'Ello Mates! Welcome to Liverpool in Second Life! Birthplace of The Beatles.
I was inspired to visit by my Downtown Dots dress, a funky vintage micromini by PuNk Couture. Me in a micromini skirt? Who knew?? I love everything about this dress except for the neckline, which is a little too Appearance Mode cookie cutter. The dress comes with a matching choker with a red bow. I paired the dress with freebie thigh highs and freebie black velvet knee boots. My earrings are freebie hoops that I recolored white, my red bracelet is from PuNk Couture, the diva glasses from Last Call, and my scripted purse is from ETD (7 sassy AOs for high class ladies). My hair is the casual and sleek Mia bun by ETD with tintable scarf. All in all, a super-fab outfit perfect for exploring the shabby chic streets of Liverpool.
The Liverpool sim consists of two main streets, the dock-side promenade and the famous Matthew Street. Liverpool features many atmospheric pubs, including The Cavern, where The Beatles were born.
There are also many Beatles and Rock n' Roll themed shops with unique items. Want a Beatles band shirt, a piano that plays John Lennon's Imagine, or full Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band costumes? This is the place to go.
The RL British Rock Band "What The...?" has it's base in Liverpool and featured John's sunken bed from the movie Help!

Liverpool has great amenities. There are creative camping spots where you can paint John Lennon's face on a wall or fix a moped. You can also rent bicycles, jet skis, boats, and even scooters for free!
While it appears that there is still a lot of construction being done, the creators of Liverpool have done a good job thus far of featuring Beatles's related city landmarks. For instance, take a look at the skyline:
Look familiar?? Perhaps you will remember the Eleanor Rigby scene from Yellow Submarine:
And speaking of yellow submarines:
There aren't a ton of activities here besides shopping and bar hopping, but one neat thing I found was a fishing game on the dock. You watch your pole until you get a bite and then you type "strike!" to try and reel 'em in. And the best part is, you get to keep your catch!
Liverpool is your one-stop Beatles fix in Second Life. And you don't even need a ticket to ride :-) (lol)
