(G.Hall) The Sweet Sound of Music

[Bradyn Reed]

[omfg, I was listening to Vertigo when I read your post and as soon as I got to your lyrics part, that was the exact part I was on. I was like wait a minute..]

Bradyn grinned when Ash joined in, he thought it was a pretty famous muggle song and was glad that at least one person was familiar with it. He started up his playing again with Ash's voice, thinking the guitar part to this song was quite fun. It had it's quiet moments, then it'd pick up full speed with a good riff. He was silently wondering as he played if they'd hear the drums pick up in the back, signaling that Fay knew the song. After he came back from his little reverie, he realized he was quite a few counts behind. 'Guess we sure need to practice. He thought and lightly chewed his lower lip while he caught up to where Ash was.

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash lowered his microphone and glanced at Bray, "Sorry Bray. That's all I know." He apologized with a shrug.


((I'm just lazy. Sorry!))

[Felicity Locke]

Felicity grinned as Bray started to play Vertigo. She had certainly heard this song before. Fay tapped along on her set, letting herself fall back into the familiar feel of the drums.

Pretty soon, she was playing away on her drums while singing the melody mostly to herself. Fay didn't really notice when Ash stopped singing, and continued the song.

I can’t stand the beats
I’m asking for the cheque
The girl with crimson nails
Has Jesus 'round her neck
Swinging to the music Whoooaaa
Swinging to the mu-

Felicity cut off when she noticed that Ash had stopped. Her cheeks flushed red and she grinned. "Sorry, got kinda carried away."

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash grinned back. "Actually you're pretty good." he said. Then he smirked plafyully, "Of course you're nowhere near as good as me!" he teased.

[Felicity Locke]

Felicity laughed and stuck her tongue out at Ash. "Course not Ashy, that's why you're vocalist and I'm stuck as a drummer." She placed her hand against her forehead. "Where no one can see me as I smash against my drums. Oh what a cruel life I live!"

Fay laughed and shook her head. "Kidding, kidding."

Kit was walking past the great hall when he heard some muffled music playing inside, and he had to admit, it wasn't half bad. He stuck his hear to the door but it was still a little hard to hear so he entered the Great Hall and spotted three fellow students playing. He listened for a while leaning against the doors and when they stopped playing he applauded them. He approached them with a grin, "That was very good you guys," he said with a warm smile. "Have you been playing for a while?" he asked them.

[Felicity Locke]

Felicity started to tap on her cymbol again as she hummed, waiting for someone else to pick another song. What was that song she had in her head called again? Oh right, 'Walk in the Sun.*'

Fay was busy trying to concentrate on the lyrics to the song in her head when she heard clapping come from the door. Her head shot up instantly and her eyes widened slightly. Felicity tried to stand but her foot caught on the stool and she fell to the side, sprawling face up on the stage. She blinked, slightly dazed. "Ow."

[Walk in the Sun is by McFly by the way]

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash laughed, "No one can play drums as good as you Liss!" Then he walked over to the mic. "Alright guys, let's get focused now." Turning on the mic, he levitated a stool in front of it, and sat down. Then picking up his guitar said, "Alright, I'm gonna play the opening chords of the song I wrote, then I want Bray to come in, then Fay. Then I'll put the guiatar down, and you two keep playing, while I do the singing. Everyone clear on what to do?" Placing his guitar in his lap, he played a a few chords, and started to sing the words, "Everyday it's getting worse not better
Maybe we should sit and finally talk
Cause where were at it's hard to measure
When I'm standing in front of a wall, yeah

You wanna know why I look sad and lonely
You wanna know why I can barely talk, well
It's not your fault so let me say I'm sorry
For making you the reason for my fall" He paused for a moment, put down his guiatar, and got rid of the stool. Ash picked up the microphine and started where he'd left off.

"I wish that I could be like I was before.
I was ridin high but now I'm feelin so low.
I wish that you could make my world feel better,
And take away the hurt so I won't be so far gone. (yeah)

I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish
I wish, I wish, I wish

I wish that I could be like I was before.
I was ridin high but now I'm feelin so low.
I wish that you could make my world feel better,
And take away the hurt so I won't be so far gone.

I wish that I could be like I was before.
I was ridin high but now I'm feelin so low.
I wish that you could make my world feel better,
And take away the hurt so I won't be so far gone. (yeah)

I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish
I wish, I wish, I wish, (yeah)
I wish, I wish, I wish, I wish
I wish, I wish, I wish"


((the word in parentheses are the backup vocals, so that's Fay's part))

Kit watched at the girl stood up and ran to help her when she tripped. It was a reaction he was quite used to. He rarely thought about his actions unless they needed thinking about. He stared down at her with a smile. He shook his head, "I didn't embarrass you, did I?" he asked nicely. With a slight chuckle, he held out his hand to help her up.

"I'm sorry for interrupting, by the way. I'm a fan of music. I play Bass and Guitar and I heard some talent in here," he said, complimenting them all. Kit looked back down at the girl, his hand still out, "Here," he said offering his hand once more.

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash started as the door open, a Gryffindor boy walked in and started talking to Fay. Ash didn't really pay attention until he heard the boy mention bass and guiatar. "You play bass?" he asked, "You know... we could use a bassist. Wana give it a try?" he asked.

[Felicity Locke]

Felicity was still slightly dazed when a hand came into her view. She blinked for a few moments, then took it. Fay hoisted herself up and brushed herself off, grinning slightly. "Naw, I'm just naturally clumsy, and not used to people listening to me play."

Fay glanced back at Ash. "Sorry for interupting Ash. Nice song though. Want me to get a beat going again?" She looked over to the boy who had helped her up, then looked down at herself. She had forgotten she left her house robes on the table, hopefully this kid wasn't a prefect or something. "I'm Felicity Locke by the way." Fay went back over to her stool and sat it up right. She plopped herself down on it and picked up her drumsticks.

"Bass? Pretty sweet. I think you'll have to go through an audition first though." She turned and stuck her tongue out at the boy and laughed.

[dougie]

Kit laughed at Fay's response about being naturally clumsy, "Well you don't have to worry about me listening to you play, I'll just listen to them," he said motioning to the guys with his head. Kit bit down on his lip ring and contemplating playing with them, "I guess I could give it a shot," he said with a smile. "Oh, I forgot," he said with an embarrassed laugh, "Kit, Kit Poynter," he said, introducing himself.

Kit looked at Fay and shook his head, "By all means! I'll audition but you guys aren't going to be like the judges on American Idol, are you? They are vicious," he said with a chuckle. He looked at them after a moment of silence, "It's a very popular muggle show where people audition to sing on the show and go through brutal yet very true criticism," he said hoping they knew what he was talking about.

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash laughed, "No, we're not judges!" he assured Kit, toying with his own lip ring. "We might give you a little bit of crtiticisim, but that all depends on how well you do. Plus the criticisim is to help you."

[Felicity Locke]

Felicity rolled her eyes and laughed. "Yep, I'm very vicious. So watch your back." She laughed again and shook her head. "Naw, we're all softies." Fay smirked and glanced at Bray. "Bray's the only pansy in the group though." She stuck her tongue out at him.

"Show us what you got then Kit." She tapped on her cymbal and grinned. "Don't worry, we don't bite either, contrary to popular belief."

[Professor Ashton Laurent]

Ash laughed. "Yep, Bray's the pansy and I'm the fairy!" he quipped. "Alright, let's see what you got Kit."
