Okay, I really really love All Time Low, so I did this Fanfict, please let me know.
Ps. any unsigned bands I mention will be real ones, so go look them up on Facebook!
I woke up, today was going to be amazing, I was going into a big brother style house with loads of bands, and unsigned to the global superstars, the one I was the most excited about was All Time Low. My band where leaving me alone in there, so it was only me to show off what Winter Kiss had. I hoped that everyone wasn't snobbish when it came to unsigned acts.
I couldn't stop jumping around as I packed, every week you had to perform to a crowd to prove why you should stay in the house, of course my band would come for the Friday when that happened, but any other time I was alone. Something I didn't find best pleasing to be truthful.
"This way miss" a man said, directing me into a studio-like place.
I stepped inside with my things, ohmygod.
Standing about 5 feet away was Alex Gaskarth, I felt faint.
Looking around I could see different bands, Paramore, Pretty Reckless (like me only Taylor Momsen was here), Biffy Clyro, and to my surprise and delight a fellow unsigned band Relentless in Love. I waved at the drummer Ryan, he beckoned me and I walked towards them, bags in hand.
I felt strangely humble around these superstars of rock and punk pop.
My band manger Summer had texted me a few moments ago, wishing me luck I guess, she never really got to the point in her texts and this one was going on and on about ep chances etc. I laughed and put my phone away, a few moments later some helpers arrived and took my bags away 'for safe keeping' they told me.
Ryan was laughing with Sean Smith, it turns out that they knew each other, personally I thought they looked really similar expect Ryan was the more cuddly version.
I felt even more nervous as other bands arrived, I was biting my nails- something I'd given up years ago.
"So... Hi?" Zack Merrick said, he'd walked up to me, he looked really nervous, a lot like me I thought, it was also really cute.
"Hi Zack" I smiled
"How do you know my name?"
"I'm pretty sure everyone knows your name" I laughed.
"Oh yeah" he shook his head "I'm still not used to it"
I looked at him confused, I guess I never knew what it was like for real musicians, everyone knowing more about you than your own mum did.
I smiled at him and laughed, "I guess it can be a lot worse"
He nodded, I could tell he was uncomfortable so I said, "You know you don't have to talk to me, go back to your band"
He looked at me, strangely, "I'm not uncomfortable, and it's just…."
"Just..?" I prompted
"Nothing, nothing" he said, and then he turned and walked back to his band.
I stood their staring at his retreating figure,
What was that about? I was wondering. Zack Merrick All Time Low bassist just spoke to me, I felt like a young fan-girl, going weak at the knees. I smiled, something's never change.
We were all called, a young woman of about 25 told us about what we were doing, She was called Eliza, and it turned out her dad was a big head-honcho of the Interscope label. If this went well we didn't just have a shot at an ep, we had a shot at being signed to Interscope. The fact made me smile, I'd always wanted to be something within music, and I lived and breathed music since I was 13.
So here were the rules;
You had to do small jobs to earn a share of the daily food handed out,
It was strongly frowned upon if you got 'involved' with another person in the house,
Your band had to perform every Friday to prove to a crowd why you should stay within the house,
No arguments,
Don't try to use this as a chance to join another band,
And mostly behave within the house.
I nodded, these seemed very reasonable, I almost laughed out loud at the 'involved' rule, I wasn't looking for love, and anyway how real would it be?
The house was nice, clean and anything you'd want. I was given first pick of the rooms by everyone as I was 'lonely', I picked one of the smaller rooms, I didn't need anything too huge and I wanted something I could sit down of the desk and write my blog and songs etc. It had a bunk bed, underneath that was a small desk with a cd player and bookcase just above, it had a chest of drawers and a small wardrobe.
I liked it almost instantly, I never was one for large things and I didn't bring that many clothes, I could easily wash them whenever I wished.
I feel asleep listening to the many bands playing music or just relaxing.
This would be a long week until I could see my band.
