Eh, I wouldn't be too sure about that. I kinda had my eyes closed the entire time and I couldn't stop shaking, but I guess I probably sounded okay. Thanks for the tips though, Brett. I will make sure I remember that, I've heard all the horror stories of the spotlight sunburns.
Oh man, do you mean like stage fright? Did you throw up after? I used to get that and then I just smoked beforehand and usually that helped a lot. No problem, I'm not in any of the show choirs, so like I'm not super biased on who wins and I always like helping people out if I can. Yeah, that's super crazy, but from everything I know about Vocal Adrenaline, it's probably like the least crazy horror story they have.
Because I enjoy singing and I'm actually pretty good at it?
Delulu seems about right. I just can't believe this is the path she's chosen to go on. Of all the musical reinventions and stellar comebacks. I mean, I'll still patiently wait for the album, of course. But this? I'm all for being feminist and girl power and all that but I just cannot condone any of the song from a musician's perspective.
They can't all be winners, dude. But I guess it really would suck to have one of your favorite artists put out subpar stuff that no one wants to listen to. You should, maybe the rest of it won't be so bad. Yeah though, it was a hard listen. Sam played it for me and we watched the video. It's definitely something.
I'm going to say that I really don't think I am. I watch movies and shows for people who aren't in elementary school. And I'm glad I can get you on the Queer Duck bandwagon. I found about that show far too young and it's help make me the intolerable homosexual I am today. And here's a fun fact; that jingle? Sung by RuPaul.
Well, I am kind of a genius. And it's not my fault the roads in Paris are so narrow! If people didn't want to get hit, then they shouldn't walk to close to the curb!
Okay, top five favorite movies. Go. It's honestly kind of iconic, I'm going to make Jacob watch it. So just know, I'm going to keep this bandwagon growing. Dude, seriously? That makes it like 100 times better.
I'm going to take that knowledge with a grain of salt since I feel like you should at least be able to learn how to drive then without hitting people if you're a genius. Huh, well do you know how to parallel park? 'Cause I know RuPaul just made a video on how to do that that's kind of awesome.
Hey guys, Violet here. Just wanted to air some grievances about some kids around my campus who clearly are still sore that they were not successful in their VA auditions. I know rejections sucks, but I'm not sure how shoulder-checking me in the hall and muttering 'show choir nepo baby scum' as they go past is going to make the offers that went out any different. Kind of not awesome for me personally.
But, regardless of that, I am excited to get to know all of you guys from the other teams!
Dude, that sucks. But I'm sure you did good if you got in, remember to wear really good sunblock and don't look at the lights directly. I'm Brett,, I go to McKinley.
Okay, the time has come for everyone to boycott Scandals. #scandalsisoverparty.
Yep, you heard me. I'm just as shocked as you are, but I have been wronged so deeply that I don't see any other option. What was meant to be a fun, harmless early Halloween themed night turned into a living hell.
Let me set the scene. I show up, I walk to the bar, I stand around looking coy & seductive until an old man offers to buy me a drink. Nothing out of the ordinary. And then it happens. The last few notes of Espresso fade out and fucking Ed Sheeran begins to play. Excuse you?! Ed Sheeran? At a gay bar? Is that meant to be the Halloween frights? I let it slide at first because maybe this DJ hit the wrong track on that Spotify playlist they call a DJ set, but then the next song starts. Mr Brightside. After that Uptown Funk. And that was my last straw. It was truly sickening.
So, until Scandals can get someone with taste, I think we should all boycott.
Side note; all of this is happening while I'm dressed as Lust For Life era Lana, a costume which no one seemed to recognise.
I feel like I shouldn't on grounds of having some sort of ginger solidarity, but man, even I gotta admit I don't think his stuff really fits a club vibe? Maybe a coffee shop though? Mr. Brightside absolutely slaps though. Have you ever tried asking the owner if you could DJ? Maybe they'd let you.
Depending on the cropped tank you go for that can be nice as well, but I wasn't really talking something so revealing. Simply more clothing that hugs the frame, as opposed to baggier stuff.
I'm going to guess anything that looks thrashed is probably bad, right? Like ones that looked like they were cropped with a razor blade? Huh... I think I have some stuff like that, but to be honest, I feel like most of my closet is baggy stuff.
I wish I could say you're joking, but I actually googled it. Let me guess too, Carmel absolutely provides you with them, don't they? At this point, I feel like you could murder someone and they'd let you get away with it.
The lights hang above the stage, not directly in front of us. If all you’re doing is looking up, then clearly, you’re not doing a hefty job at engaging with the audience.
Huh, I guess that's true. Would it be like looking into the sun though if you did? Do you guys just never look up if that's the case? And has anyone ever forgotten sunblock before?
Splash water on my face and steal some of @blondchameleon's face masks occasionally. I like the ones with animal faces or look like fruits 'cause they smell good.
If you had asked me a couple of years ago, I probably would've said something stupid like fuck bitches, get money. But as someone who's technically died twice, I feel like it's just to surrounded yourself with good people and leave a mark for the ones you leave behind whenever you go.
I guess I had no idea you had songwriting in your arsenal. And I mean that sincerely. After your last Warbler audition, I thought to myself, huh, why is this guy even still trying to join glee club and become a performer but, consider me glad that you have miraculously found yourself another outlet regardless. Assuming you don't sing.
I honestly doubt she is freaking out because she actually appears pretty confident about her upcoming release but I appreciate the sentiment. I guess I'm just going to spend some quality time with some of the meditation apps on my phone and wish for the better.
Always the tone of surprise, Anderson. You should know by now you should never put me in a box. I mean, why did you join the Warblers?
Could be denial, could be delulu. Either way, she probably does have enough money not to be freaking out. Definitely, 'cause what's the worst that can happen?
I can tell - you're quite a well defined man. Definitely looking quite a bit healthier now in my opinion. Good on you for cutting back, I'm sure your lungs are very thankful for you.
I guess I can try to show it off more. I don't know if I'm comfortable enough like Sam to play our gigs shirtless, but maybe I could rock a cropped tank or something. Is that fashionable? Thanks! Yeah, I figured if I've lived this long, I might as well keep going. They totally are, but my throat is another story thanks to all the screaming.
Board games, no, I'm certainly not sitting around for a board game night. And as for watching animated stuff, sure I do, but not shit like that. Might I recommend 'Queer Duck'? Now, that's my kind of animation.
Kids cost thousands per year, everything they need is so fucking expensive you can't tell me it's not a scam. Ugh, don't even put the thought in my head. I didn't bribe my way into passing my driver's test to have to drive kids to class.
Dude, you're totally missing out. What do you usually do for fun then? Okay, I'm already like five minutes in and hooked. Why does the theme jingle kinda slap?
That... is kind of accurate and kind of scary. I fear my next smoke session is just going to be me going on about this now. Sebastian... man. Do I want to know why you had to bribe your way into passing? Could you not, you know, pass on your own?
I... can carry a tune. Feel weird hyping up my own singing, to be honest. I haven't done crazy flips yet, but I know I could. I did a cartwheel the other day, though, so whatever.
Oh, well how the hell was I supposed to know?! I know New Directions, because duh. And then there's the Warblers, which Blaine is a councilman for. And the Hipsters, as of two seconds ago. I know there's another one... I just can't remember.
Nah, man. Look at Rachel or that Jesse kid. I feel like confidence is half the gig, but I know how you feel. And I mean, maybe the cheerleading team could help you? Britt probably knows how to do a flip and could show you. Plus, she seems like the only nice one.
Dude, you gotta read into this. It's like boring, but not at the same time? Show choir lore is kind of insane. You talking about Vocal Adrenaline? There's also the Unitards and the Hoosierdaddies. Oh, my girlfriend, or ex right now, and my best friend are super into it. I suck things up through osmosis or whatever.
