» I'm In The Band, band members

She that chick right up there? That's Izzy Cozlent. She is a great singer and hopes to start a band. She's been singing all her life, and listens to music all the time.

How this will work out I'm not sure. When the whole band is together we'll figure out how the music will work, but for now we'll worry about the band itself.

I was thinking that they could meet some place, like, not sure yet, collage or something. Anyway, they meet, all become good friends, and then of course, their musical side shows and they start a band.

I don't really care if the character is already created, I don't care about the names or playbys either. This is pretty much "do you have a character that would be interested in a band?" style.

Lead Singer: Izzy Cozlent
Drummer:
Base: Rian Archer
Lead Guitar: Yoshi Park
Keyboard:
Manager: Jon Jon
Electronics (the person behind stage running the electronics and what not):

If you have an idea for another instrument for a rock band let me know.

I originally had my char Kiyoshi Park in the band here. He was the drummer and back up Vocals and The Band was called Teriyaki Knights and was pop-punk. But I think i may be the only one playing an active band member well I'm not sure who the person behind Jon Jon is doing, because there was a thread but two of the supposed members aren't even replying to it (or have actually shown up at all online) and it was kinda annoying me.

Maybe you can PM Maxwell Sheridan and we can figure something. It's you're choice really but Your char sounds like she'd be a great lead singer .

And I really want Yoshi (my char) in a band (maybe I can switch him over to guitar instead too I think guitar fits him better than drums anyway.

We will have to figure something out but .

Sounds awesome. I have a character that would be great for drums that I can bring on over to this thread.

I'll add Yoshi up there. -dances singing 'this is so exciting'-

here she is. I was thinking Taylor could be drums.

Hope you don't mind but I actually PMed two people that were related to the other band and told them about this thread I'll see what they think.

That's cool for Taylor to be drums

Oh and I have this Idea that Kiyoshi at some point would write a song that the other band members thought was really good so they decided to use it. But when they finally perform it on stage at some point Kiyoshi would get emotional about it and they would be forced to take a break. I have the song written out already but i want to know first if the others like this Idea.

and YAY for Yoshi playing GUITAR... honestly think it fits him better than Drums anyway or maybe its just because his PB plays guitar in a band called EYESHINE.

hey i'm kelvy. i was involved in the other band plot but that went nowhere fast and shadow pmed about this one. so here i am. if you need a band manager jon jon is your man. if not i guess i can switch up his app a little and make him a bassist.

hey, i'm totally on the wrong account right now but i have a charrie called 'rian archer' and he's a bass and acoustic guitar player.
so he could do bass? (:

Totally! I shall get to the right account in a bit and add him up there.

Bumping and bribing with pics.

not this dude but my other guy Dakota Daws... I figured he could have something to do with these guys and girls. Dakota's a guitarist (but he plays keyboard too) by trade, he's got a four year old kid (his dead sister's little boy) and he used to be in a band. Like a fairly popular, touring all over the country, eating like shit and living out of a van, kind of band you know. he did that for years. He had to stop when his sister died and he got custody of her son but... still.

I figured Kota could serve as... I dunno a general mentor, a guy who could help with guitar riffs, maybe come on stage and play with them for a song or two if they're doing a local gig. He can come watch their shows, help with set up and take down sometimes. General cheerleader/enabler type of guy. They could practice in his house if they don't have a practice space. Kota's got a casual, mostly for fun, fucking around kind of band so he's certainly got a room in his house set up as a studio space and he loves being around people and musicians so... yeah it could work.

Just offering him up a side random dude kind of person. Ahahaha.

Sweet deal! We have a band!
My character has a kid too! Well it's his own daughter LOL.
Alright remember me mentioning that there will be a song at some point that would get my boy Yoshi all emotional and stuff well i figured I'd share it here. I hope you like it.

Ok here's the song we could probably easily make it with the band Genre:

Title: "Did you know?"

Storyline: Well obviously a girl killed by a drunk driver, how else would he get emotional since that's how Jade's mom was killed.

Song:

Drinking your life away, Sitting at the bar
you grab your keys, and get in the car
driving down the street, swerving left and right
you can feel your mind fogging, as you make a sharp turn
it happened so quickly
CRASH! You hit that girl

Did you know what she could've become?
Did you know she was an artist?
(she would've been great)
Did you know she was a free-spirit?
(she could've changed the world)
Did you know she was someone's lover?
(loved through and through)
Did you know they had a daughter?

You walked off without a thought
while her blood paint the car
her broken body lie across the pavement
a boy escaped his parents' car
rushing to her side
as her soul slowly left her body
the boy cried "No, please don't leave me"

Did you know what she could've become?
Did you know she was an artist?
(she would've been great)
Did you know she was a free-spirit?
(she could've changed the world)
Did you know she was someone's mother?
(that poor little girl)
Did you know she was someone's lover?
(help that boy)
Did you know...
Did you know...
She was only fifteen?

You didn't did you?
(you didn't care}
You weren't thinking.
(when you grabbed your keys after the bar)
To you she was just a girl
(just a girl)
But that teenager had a whole life ahead of her
That you cut short
To you it was just a challenge
(You stubborn ass)
To her family and friends, she was much more

did you know?
did you know?
did you know?

She could've been great.

Yeah this took me forever to think of but I thought of Yoshi's background and the one thing that still haunts him and then put myself in his shoes. I'm not sure if it needs any edits I mean it is a bit long but I'm pretty happy with it.

Of course we wouldn't have him get emotion during practice it would be more dramatic if he did on stage. Kiyoshi's actually a pretty sensitive guy hehe.

@Luca: Sounds great

@Yoshi: A great song, you wrote this? It's really good! Anyway, perfect!

Yep I did write that myself. I tried to put myself in my character's shoes at what kind of song he would write that would be emotional for him and so it just came to me.

I'm glad you like it We should do like a whole band thread somewhere!

I'll pin and bump this.

@Yoshi: Like it? I love it!

@Rian: Thanks
