The bad districts tour
written by
Simon Chopin
PART 1
Jem and the Holograms, The Misfits and other singers take part in a benefit concert which
take place in a town which has a bad reputation because there's a lot of unemployment and
delinquency. Pizzazz scolds Eric for making the Misfits perform in such a place but thinks
it could be a good place to film their new video which is filmed by Clash. The Misfits hire
some kids. They stroll about the town on skate-boards and cause some mischief while Clash
films them from a bus.
"The leader of the gang"
The Misfits
I don't need money or somethin' else
Always get what I want through the force
Wherever I go, I'm respected
All across this town I lay down the law
Nobody stops me
Nobody's able to compete with my strength
Cause I'm the leader of the gang
If you are tired of being made fun
Join us, you'll have your ennemies stunned
We rule the roost in the neighbourhood
Others have no choice but to loose
Nobody stops me
Nobody's able to compete with my strength
Cause I'm the leader of the gang
Cause I'm the leader
Cause I'm the leader
Cause I'm the leader of the gang
Kimber helps some teenagers who are in trouble with the police for making graffitis. She
thinks they have a lot of talent and offers them to decorate the concert's stage. Krissie
walks in the town and falls in love with a young basket player who tries to become a
professional player.
Meanwhile, Jerrica is trying to find amongst her relations someone who could help the town.
Billy, a boy who joined the Misfits, appreciates that and want to join the Starlight girls.
The Misfits aren't too pleased.
"Choose your friends / Choose your side"
Jem and the Holograms
The Misfits
-Choose your friends
And stay with them
No matter you haven't the same dream
Frienship hasn't any limit
-Choose your side
Choose your goal
Make up your mind
You can't take two sides at once
-Choose your friends
Choose people you like
Wherever they come from
What matters is how you get on
-Choose your side
And rather the strongest's
-Choose your friends
Choose people who are there
When you need them
Choose your friends
-Choose your side
-Choose your friends
The concert is the following day. Before, both groups are invited to stay in a hotel.
The driver who have to lead the Holograms to the hotel is kidnapped by Zipper who hires a
man to impersonate him. The impostor leads the Holograms to an other hotel, a real slum
which is in the worst part of the town. The Misfits walks around the stage and gloat,
thinking that the Holograms won't be there whereas they'll have a lot of success. This
evening, the Holograms visit the sad district of the hotel and end up at a karaoke club
where they sing.
"That's what I began with"
Jem and the Holograms
People who sing to realize their dreams
I used to do the same
From this time I got good memories
That's what I began with
That's what I began with
And it has done what I am today
That's what I began with
So don't give up, so keep on this way
Maybe someday someone will notice you
And lead you to glory
But you won't forget where you come from
That's what you began with and
That's what I began with
And it has done what I am today
That's what I began with
So don't give up, so keep on this way
The Holograms come back to the hotel. Its owner, an old man, is very happy and surprised
to see them so they don't suspect the caper. But when they eat at the hotel's low class
restaurant, they feel that something's wrong. Later, they go to bed but Shana has doubts
and can't sleep. She goes to take a glass of water when the stairs are invaded by rats !
TO BE CONTINUED...
PART 2
Shana's cries alert Jerrica who use a hologram to make the rats flee. Next morning, they
go to complain to the owner when the impostor tells the Holograms that the concert is
defered until one day later. Kimber visits the graffiti-makers and see their work on the
stage.They introduce the Holograms to them. We'll see them in the following video as well
as Krissie's friend and Billy's father.
"Dreams"
Jem and the Holograms
Dreams
Allow you to escape from where you're locked
Dreams
Whether you wanna run, paint or rock
And if you believe in dreams
With a little bit of will
You can make those dreams come true
Dreams
Though they only exist in your mind
Dreams
You can make them escape from the night
And if you believe in dreams
With a little bit of will
You can make those dreams come true
(x2)
Billy leads the Holograms and the Starlight girls to an amusement park in order to have fun
before the concert. He tells the Holograms about his father who is unemployed.
Someone steals Jem's earrings but Synergy, thinking quickly, project a
hologram that makes the robber flee and give back the earrings. She also create a hologram
that hides Jem while she is reverting to Jerrica. The driver escapes from the place where
he was locked, find the Holograms and tells them about the impostor. Jem and the Holograms
realize that the impostor must have lied to them and go to the concert, and so does the
Misfits but they have to pass through the most dangerous places of the town to attempt the
stage.
"Not any place scares me"
The Misfits
Not any place scares me
I know very well the danger zones
Not any place scares me
I have always lived in the jungle
I'll take you everywhere with me
And you'll never be afraid
Cause I'm an expert in those places
I know how to defend myself
Not any place scares me
I know the dangers of the jungle
Not any place scares me
Skirt chasers, murderers and bombs
Not any place scares me (x3)
Oh oh oh
Not any place scares me (x3)
Not any !
Once the Misfits are on the stage, they claim that Jem and the Holograms won't come. The
Holograms come to the concert much to the Misfits' surprise and sing.
"Always there for you"
Jem and the Holograms
They tried to split us
But we need you so much
We love you as you love us
We would have you know that
We'll be (We'll be) always there for you (x2)
Whatever happens
In spite of problems
Always there for you
They tried to keep you
Away from our way
They'll never succeed in that
We would have you know that
We'll be (We'll be) always there for you (x2)
Whatever happens
In spite of problems
Always there for you
(We'll be, We'll be)
We'll be always there for you
Jem announces that she has eventually found people who can solve the unemployement problem
and is rewarded by a standing ovation. Krissie promises to her friend to see him again
somehow.
