Making a Band For Dummies

Chapter 2:

"Ok Kyle what is soo important that you need me to call right away? I'm in the middle of practicing on my turntable as well as trying to get better with a keyboard." Jason asked in a exasperated tone.

Steeling himself Kyle began.

"Jason do you know anyone that would like to start a band? I've started to write songs again and I'm practicing with my guitar as well as my singing." Kyle responded. Jason momentarily shocked and surprised as he thought Kyle would never get back into music after his parents died grinned to himself.

"About damn time you picked it back up! Don't know if you remember but I'm in a band currently but we've been having a hard time finding a lead vocalist for said band, you interested in trying out?"

Kyle was excited. This could be his big break as well as making things way easier as he wouldn't have to go out and find a group of people to start a band.

"Yes I'm interested, I've also got a couple of song in mind for us to play for a tryout. I'll bring them over. When do you want to do this?"

"I'm thinking tomorrow afternoon. That way we have some time to get ready. Come to my house." Jason replied.

"Will do ill see you then." after that Kyle hung up and started to go through his system shop for help.

"System open up the shop please, and please tell me how to purchase things."

Breathing a sigh of relief kyle began browsing the shop. He finally stopped on four skills that would be invaluable for this venture.

<System shop:

Intermediate singing: 500 points

Advanced singing 4500 Points

Intermediate Guitarist 1000 points

Advanced Guitarist 2000 points.

Does host want to purchase these skills Y/N?>

Pressing yes Kyle was just as soon assaulted by a massive headache as information began pouring into his head. Clenching his eyes and holding his head, it soon subsided and he was amazed as he now knew how to better play and sing. He frowned as he realized that he didn't have a song to play, but that would change.

Opening the shop again he went to the tab titled Song Selection.

Looking through it for over a hour he was both amazed and irritated as there were just too many songs to comprehend. Finally getting to the Alternative Rock category he came across the perfect song to start out with.

Pressing yes again he was again assaulted by information.

"Hope this gets easier, I definitely don't want a headache every time I buy something..." Kyle mumbled. Shaking his head he went to bed to rest up for tomorrow.

The next morning he woke up refreshed and started getting read to head to Jason's place. Packing his guitar and picking up sheets of paper with both the lyrics and notes for the song he wrote down last night before going to bed, he set out for Jason's house.

At Jason's house:

Jason was busy with explaining to his fellow band mates that he had potentially found a lead singer who also played the guitar. They were fine but said he needed to prove himself.

Just then a knock was heard on the front door. Walking and opening it he found Kyle standing there with a guitar case and sheets of paper in hand.

"Good to see you Kyle, now are you ready to get this started? And what's with the sheets of paper?"

"The sheets are for the song were going to be singing. Here have the others familiarize themselves with the words and note for the other instruments.:

Jason looked over the notes and found himself both impressed and intrigued. This would be good. Handing the other sheets to them they all started practicing and getting warmed up.

"Ok Kyle were ready when you are."

Stepping up to the microphone on a stand they all started.

"I'm tired of being what you want me to be

Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface

Don't know what you're expecting of me

Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

I've become so numb

I can't feel you there

Become so tired

So much more aware

I'm becoming this

All I want to do

Is be more like me

And be less like you

Can't you see that you're smothering me

Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control?

'Cause everything that you thought I would be

Has fallen apart right in front of you

Every step that I take is another mistake to you

(Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow)

And every second I waste is more than I can take

I've become so numb

I can't feel you there

Become so tired

So much more aware

I'm becoming this

All I want to do

Is be more like me

And be less like you

And I know

I may end up failing too

But I know

You were just like me with someone disappointed in you

I've become so numb

I can't feel you there

Become so tired

So much more aware

I'm becoming this

All I want to do

Is be more like me

And be less like you

I've become so numb

I can't feel you there

(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)

I've become so numb

I can't feel you there

(I'm tired of being what you want me to be)"

After ending they all stared at Kyle in awe.

"Bro, where did you learn to sing like this?" One of the band mates Dan asked in astonishment.

"Like I told Jason, I've been practicing." Kyle said with some embarrassment in his voice. "So...did I pass?"

"Pass? you knocked it out of the park Kyle your in, do you have any other songs?!" Jason said with excitement.

"I do just not with me at the moment. Should we record this and try and see where it goes?" he asked with trepidation.

Everyone looked at one another and agreed. This was the start of a glorious thing that they would ride until they couldn't no more.
