☆A Little Little Fun



On the morning of the 24th, the sun rises over Vista City and, more importantly, Archer Park- a series of rooftop parks connected to each other by bridges and overflowing greenery of all sorts. It's a popular on most days to start with. Today, however, is the day of the Double S Charity Concert. Thus, it's more packed than usual.

One of the park "islands" is home to a concert stage, and that is where the concert is taking place. All throughout the next couple of days, various musicians will perform songs they've written about or dedicated to another in the industry. With the entertainment value of the idea and the fame of the musicians, of course the place is packed.

The stage is where every musician will end up at throughout the day, performing for the masses, but behind it is also a rest area for them to either bide their time or just hang out. It's supposed to be restricted to just those musicians participating, but frankly... security is lax just enough that bandmates and the such could duck on in to see their friends. No fans, however, sorry. It's not the most impressive of places, with seating areas and a salad bar and all the pizza that could possibly be ordered, but hopefully it's good enough. This is also where one can find event organizer Jenny around, in case they need to bring anything up.

Of course, no one is required to stay back there while waiting their turn, or after they've done their performance. Attempts to raise money go beyond just the concert. Double S has all sorts of stalls set up, whether to explain to people the various causes they can specifically pledge support to, or to sell merchandise. Can't forget the food stalls. There is, of course, a stall showing adoptable animals. There always is.

Finally, there's one last thing Double S has set up for any willing celebrities. It's a meet-and-greet area for the fans, where they have the chance to meet their favorite musicians. Giving out autographs, taking pictures with fans... There's even a karaoke set up for everyone to use. Musicians can sing solo, or with others from their label, or even with a lucky fan. AKA feel free to get NPC MP here. Hopefully, it'll get some good publicity for those interested in that kind of thing.

Tickets have been made astonishingly cheap in the hopes that more people will show, with anything else being made up by merchandise sales or donations.

Not all fans are rational and reasonable, much as we might wish them otherwise.

Yes, yes, yes. That's too true! We'd all be saved a great deal of trouble if they were. So many people getting pushed around in lines and insulted for forgetting another celebrity's birthday. On one hand I like the fame because I like entertaining others and the feeling of success. On the other hand we're just regular human beings! We don't need the ground we walk on kissed like we're gods.

Yes. {Her faint exhalation is much like a sigh.] And let us not forget the unpleasant ramifications of body pillows and such forth...

Body pillows- oh! [ His face scrunches up. ] I had erased that from my mind after hearing about those. And I thought the things that have been done to cardboard cutouts were odd.

I have few of those, fortunately. Something about the size. [Life-size, and they are simply too small. Bigger, and fans rail about the incorrect size. There are few advantages to being her height, but this is one of them.]
