☆MINGLE LOG: SOUTH VISTA MUSIC FEST

Who: Everyone!
What: An open mingle log for everyone from everywhere.
When: November 18th-24th, 2054
Where: South Vista
Warnings: Could be anything!


☆THE FESTIVAL
Welcome to the South Vista Music Fest! An enormous, weeklong festival with hundreds of bands performing nearly 24/7, the Music Fest is a quarter annual event that celebrates all manners of local talent, both big time and small time. Every band from Pride Records and Virgo Entertainment will have performances to do, including the freshly recruited – you better have your act together, because now is your time to shine!



Player bands will be performing roughly once a day, with bands from the first app round predominantly with evening slots and the newest bands with predominantly afternoon slots. There is definitely a hierarchy to the scheduling - Pride and Virgo claim almost all of the prime performance times, while other labels are forced to deal with the leftovers. You've definitely been chosen by the winners of the music industry in these parts, that's for sure.

Shuttles will be available to take people back to their relative HQs in their downtime, but they're also allowed to hang out and enjoy the festivities if that's what they prefer. Stuff is happening all day and night, so it's really just a question of how much you can party while still being conscious for your own show. Your managers will tell you that the company CEOs pay extra close attention to this event, so that you need to be on your best behaviour.

The festival takes up a massive amount of floor area with multiple stages of various sizes and a large amount of glowy display screens. It's set up on the ground floor of the cityscape, meaning that the suspension roads and walkways above have been programmed to add to the ambient lighting all day and night.

► TRAILER PARK KIDS: For those that just want to chill, there is a massive VIP area reserved for labels to park various trailers for their musicians to hang out in during downtime - one for each band. They aren't quite as big as the tour buses, but they are comfortable and well stocked. Each is equipped with two beds and a bathroom/shower. Pretty much every local band you know of is here, including the notorious Predator. Nose around their trailer at your own risk.

► IN THE SPOTLIGHT: With at least six performances in a span of six days, there is plenty of time for shenanigans to go down both back and center stage. Time to show your mettle, and to hope that some asshole doesn't take all the best food items from the backstage catering tables before you can get to them.

► ATMOSPHERIC NOISE: If you dare brave the storm, there is a massive quantity of merch, vendor, and food booths available for your perusal. Many fans endeavor to spend as much time at Music Fest as possible, and so the space is very lived in, with large groups of people hanging out in well populated lounge areas. Depending on how popular you are, it may be difficult to get around without getting swarmed by your fans.

► DON'T FORGET TO REMEMBER: And all the while, the strange memories continue. The label's newest members will have started to feel strange as of November 6th, and by the time of the Fest almost all of them will be discovering their first memories regains. The first one should be based on the alignment you chose, but the rest can be whatever you want. New character may regain up to 4 memories between their arrival and the end of November.
liarmonstersnappydresser: (HA!)

C.) catching him before he goes in the trailer?

"Yeesh. What's her problem?"

[Bill saunters in, a bottle of something in hand, to flop down next to the trailer. Sorry Greg, did you want a quiet a moment alone? TOO BAD You're having a conversation now, this is how Bill rolls. Get used to it.]

"She must have caught wind of her POINTLESS HUMAN EXISTENCE and decided to BLOW SOME HOT AIR to remind herself she was breathing. HA!"

[He takes a swig, suddenly dead serious.]

"..Y'need someone to mess with her stuff?"
panspermia: (★ Let's count that a success)

[ It's less that Greg was hoping for alone time, and more that he's embarrassed that his scolding got overheard. He must look like a real moron, right now.

In a paltry attempt to save face and brush it off, Greg gives Bill a grin. The guy's a little out there... a lot out there, okay, but what else can you expect in this line of business?
]

Can't fault anyone for doing their job, right? [ He scratches at his neck. ] Annnnd I sort of botched up mine, anyway.

“Sure I can! Anything is possible if you believe it enough!”

[Reality is just an illusion after all.]

“And I believe that dames a piece a' work.”

[He flops back, looking at the sky more than anything; but to be fair Greg can only see one of his eyes anyway.]

“Our manager can't do a thing to stop our plans! We just distract her with cats-- or Sans.”
panspermia: (★ These things are expensive)

[personal profile] panspermia 2015-11-19 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Greg laughs. Sure, he can get behind that sort of ideology. At least, the part that's being said out loud. ]

Well, those are two things that can throw about anyone off track. Sounds like you guys are a real party.
liarmonstersnappydresser: (GASP)

Sorry Greg; you just HAD to say important key words

[personal profile] liarmonstersnappydresser 2015-11-22 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
[Bill smirks at that, he liked that phrase, "a real party" it suited him.]

"HEHEH! You know it!! Now that we've made it big there's--­­"

[A flash of bright colors; like an aurora borealis, swirls of magenta's, blacks, golds­­; impossibly everything yet none of those things all at once "His simpleminded codes and supernatural tips won't help him, when the rise of my nightmare realm brings forth a... well I'm getting ahead of myself. Lets just say it's gonna be a real party!!"

Bill's smile loses some of its moxie. He offers Greg the bottle.]


"..You want a swig?"

panspermia: (★ Passions of Xanxor)

the horrific power of parties is only just being realized

[personal profile] panspermia 2015-11-23 08:47 am (UTC)(link)
[ That's a pretty abrupt cut off, there. Followed by an offer to start drinking. Either the pressures of fame caught up with Bill real suddenly, or something happened. This last month's been weird enough that Greg has an idea what something could be, and he might prefer the pressures of fame hitting. ]

...Yeah. All right.

[ There's no more performances today, and he's already feeling wiped from that encounter. A drink doesn't sound half bad. He takes the offered bottle--and checks for a label, first. Just to know what he's getting in to. ]

Here's to making it big.
liarmonstersnappydresser: (leaning)

The terror of celebrations that begin at one time and END AT ?!

[personal profile] liarmonstersnappydresser 2015-11-24 08:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[The label is kind of faded, but nothing too hard core; it looks to be a lower grade whiskey bourbon. He follows Greg lead back into conversation flawlessly.]

"To making it big!"

[He punches a gloved fist in the air, each syllable punctuated with sharp enthusiasm.]

"By the by! Name's Bill!! Bill Cipher."

[He extends his hand towards Greg, but whether it's because he wants a handshake or another drink is anyone's guess.]
panspermia: (★ Let's count that a success)

[personal profile] panspermia 2015-11-25 10:05 am (UTC)(link)
Mmp--oh--

[Bill's introduction comes in the middle of a gulp of liquor. Greg wipes his mouth quickly, and goes for the "handshake" option.]

Greg Universe. Heheh... You're a real cipher sore eyes, man.

[He may not have realized the more tasteless half of that pun.]
liarmonstersnappydresser: (Didja miss me)

[personal profile] liarmonstersnappydresser 2015-11-26 05:33 am (UTC)(link)
[Whether Greg does notice the poor taste of it or not just makes Bill laugh harder. It sounds a touch maniacal, but it's sincere, really!]

"HEHAHAHA!! Yeah I get that a lot. What can I say? If I can't see I might as well be seen!"

[Bill flips up his eyepatch to tap on the blue glass eye resting within. Lets be honest, he does wear a bright golden coat with a giant eye on it.]

"Oh man, now I know you've met Sans. Don't tell me you're uniVERSED in punny nature now too."
panspermia: (★ I have no friends ;D)

[personal profile] panspermia 2015-12-02 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
[ Greg's grin strains for a second as he realizes his insensitivity--oops. Thankfully enough Bill evidently doesn't mind the faux pas. ]

Oh yeah, me and Esqueleto are old college pals. In that we both dropped out around the same time. Helped each other punderstand the world a little better.
liarmonstersnappydresser: (pensive)

[personal profile] liarmonstersnappydresser 2015-12-04 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[Bill hums thoughtfully at that.]

"Oh I don't question his abilities of punderstanding, it's his shoddy puncept of TIME that needs that some reworking!"

[He groans, stretching out his lanky form against the clutter accumulated next to the trailer.]

"Not that I can blame him. Never been a fan of it myself any way."
