How do I go about opening up an audio stream? I want to do a live act but I do not know where to begin.

Hey Point! This is done externally, through a service like Shoutcast or Icecast, and then piped through SL. I can point you to some forum links like this...

Doubledown Landino posted that he's doing DJ classes:
/invalid_link.html

Also this:
/108/df/109781/1.html

And I've previously answered similar questions:
/139/94/98610/1.html

and in general you'll want to ask fellow Residents who've already got themselves on the digital airwaves. Look for the Live Music Enthusiasts group and get in touch--friendly folks!

In addition--we'll have a definitive easy guide to do doing this. It's in the works. :)

Best of hope, and rock on!!!
