As a part of a sweet nod to Valentine's tradition (or perhaps more technically to 義理チョコ - giri-choko), the Japanese Pocky people, Ezaki Glico Company, are holding a festival on their new Pocky island in Second Life. The Pocky festival runs all the way until White Day (ホワイトデー, March 14).

Popular Japanese ska girl group, Ore Ska Band (オレスカバンド) will be playing on the island 29th of Februrary and 1st of March at 7PM and 10PM - though we're not sure which side of the dateline or which timezone that's in exactly. We'd figure Japan Standard Time so you'd be looking at the day before, japanophiles. That's the safe way to play it. If it turns out to be in SLT (US Pacific) you've at least not missed it.

If you're not sure what sort of thing you might be getting from オレスカバンド (Ore Ska Band), we've got one of their music videos here, courtesy of YouTube.
