Inaugural Fandom Music Festival, Friday afternoon, The Park

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

First thing in the morning, random technical people from the mainland had started to arrive and set up the stage. Bit by bit it was pieced together, and then came all of the technical equipment. By lunch time, it was ready to go and the bands started to show up.

Chairs were set out and there was plenty of space on the grass for people to sit or put blankets down. There were food and drink stalls towards the back of the area and stalls for band merchandise, because who can resist a t-shirt to commemorate the occasion?

At about 3pm, the audience was settled in and Ted 'Theodore' Logan came out onto the stage to MC. "HELLO FANDOM!" he yelled, throwing up the horns. "I am Ted 'Theodore' Logan and welcome to Fandom's FIRST EVER music festival. You will all be witness to some most excellent bands here today. So put your hands together and give a warm Fandom welcome to our first guests...THE ARCHIES!"

[OOC: The weather has been modded by admin decree. It's nice and not rainy at all, no matter what the mainland weather report said. There are pictures and links that will lead to the performances in the comments. TOWNIES WELCOME!]

Before the Festival

Meet up, find a seat, enjoy!

Peter took a seat strategically located so he could get a decent recording of the festival for Zero.

Tempe found a good seat, not too close, but not too far away from the stage.

While waiting for the festival to start, she read her book.

Isabel found a spot in the shade that still had a good view of the stage. She spread out her blanket and sat down, the basket holding Greg at her side.

Sakurazaki arrives, leaning against a tree and looking rather worn down. Sure, it's pretty far from the stage, but she's a little worried that if she sits down, she might not be able to stand back up again.

Walter arrived with a picnic basket, spread out a blanket, and lay down to wait for anyone he knew.

Snoring? Of course not.

Peter found a place mostly in the shade, spread out the blanket he'd brought with him, and stretched out on his back, flinging one arm over his eyes to protect them from the glare.

Jaye takes a seat. No popcorn this time. Dammit. Though she does have her hair in a ponytail, so the rubber band can serve as a throwing implement if someone sucks.

Lana found a good place to spread out a blanket and settled down to watch the musicians.

Re: Before the Festival

[enginegirl.livejournal.com]

Kaylee found a spot sort of close to the stage.

Tim was there with light sticks, and hoping to find someone to paint a peace sign on his face. He was also hoping to find Gwynn.

On her *handwavy* trip to town this morning, Veronica had picked up some sandwiches and cookies from J,GOB and packed a picnic basket for she and Archie to share at the music festival.

They arrived, found a spot to put their blanket down and waited for the music to start.

Food & Drink

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

Mmmm junk food. Buy some food and drinks from the stands. Corndogs yay!

Re: Food & Drink

[tyler-gone.livejournal.com]

Tyler paid too much for soome soggy nachos and leaned against a wall, munching them as he surveyed the crowd.

Re: Food & Drink

[fatalvoyage.livejournal.com]

Tempe bought some grossly overpriced lemonade, that was a little more sugary than she liked. Still, it was drinkable.

She also bought a few snickerdoodles. Because it just isn't a music festival without cookies.

Merchandise

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

T-shirts, armbands, coffee mugs, posters, signed albums, anything else you can think of that isn't evil, possessed, otherwise dangerous or living (or unliving).

Re: Merchandise

[fatalvoyage.livejournal.com]

Tempe bought a t-shirt. Because she could. And she liked t-shirts.

It was a hideous shade of neon green. With hot pink writing.

Actually, it was kind of blinding.

THE ARCHIES

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

The Archies came out on stage, looking colorful and chipper.

Re: THE ARCHIES

[bigfat-peter.livejournal.com]

Peter looked troubled during the Archies concert. Who was hotter? Betty or Veronica? Betty was a cutie pie and you knew she would stay with you forever. But Veronica was sexy as hell and had a wild side.

And more importantly, what in the hell did they see in that goofy redheaded kid?

CHIP SKYLARK

Jaye's foot is not tapping. It is not. Shut up.

THE CALIFORNIA RAISINS

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

"Some of you little dudes may not remember these guys, or if you're from space you might not have heard them, but please welcome America's great favorites...the one, the only, THE CALIFORNIA RAISINS!"

Re: THE CALIFORNIA RAISINS

[fatalvoyage.livejournal.com]

Tempe remembered The California Raisins, if only in passing. After all, it's kind of hard to forget a bunch of singing raisins.

She could be found grooving slightly to the song. And no, she didn't care how much the grooving looked like limb-flailing.

THE CHIPMUNKS

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

"Next up, we have three dudes with big teeth and squeaky voices, but they still put on a most excellent show. Put your hands together for THE CHIPMUNKS!"

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SPINAL TAP

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

"You know their name, you've got their album, you've seen their documentary. Please welcome SPINAL TAP!"

Jamie was totally rocking out and kept screaming out requests for "Big Bottom Girls."

JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

"They're hot. They have 80s hair. They're the most sparkly babes on the music scene. They are JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS!"

Re: JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS

[bigfat-peter.livejournal.com]

Peter had no idea what Jem and the Holograms were singing but he did know Kimber was hot.

WYLD STALLYNS

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

After Jem and the Holograms finished their set, Ted returned to the stage. Bill, the Grim Reaper (who looked a lot like Jaye's Dad actually), Station, the Medieval Babes and the Good Robot Bill & Ted joined them.

[multi-madrox.livejournal.com]

Yes Jamie's lighter is out.

Hell... It's professor Ted and Wyld Stallions. It's like a law.

After the Concert

[wyld-stallyn.livejournal.com]

Skidaddle! Go on, get. And maybe get some autographs if you're lucky.

Re: After the Concert

[fatalvoyage.livejournal.com]

Tempe got her incredibly blinding festival t-shirt signed by a raisin. This made her much more happy and giddy than it probably should have.

OOC

Be excellent to each other!
