School of Rock: The Encore
Suddenly,the lights flashed randomly.
"School of Rock, School of Rock!" the crowd chanted.
"What now?" Duey yelled to the band over the screams of the crowd.
"I think they want an encore," Katie answered back.
"Well, lets give 'em what they're askin for!" Freddy exclaimed.
"1...2...1,2,3, 4,"
"Wait," Duey yelled, "What are we playing?"
"Yeah," Katie answered,"We didn't reherse anything else."
"Duey!" Ned yelled. When Duey turned, he was surprised to see that Ned was coming toward him-In a crowd surf!
"Ned! What the hell are you doing?" Duey yelled.
"I can help you out with a song. Remember? The one we wrote when we were young." Ned said as he tumbled onstage, face first. Freddy nearly fell down laughing.
"Shut up, Freddy!" Ned said, struggling to pick himself up.
"How the frig are we supposed to learn a song in less than...TWO MINUTES?!" Freddy asked again, trying not to laugh.
"How am I supposed to know? I think you guys can handle it. Its pretty much the same chords, simple bass notes and, Lawrence, you'll figure it out...Freddy, don't you dare!" Suddenly, Freddy burst into a series of uncontrolled laughs again.
"You can't play for shit, Ned. How are you supposed to teach us a song in hmmm...ONE MINUTE?" Freddy blurted out.
"Try me," Ned said simply.
"All right! Show mre the beat, Zack the chords, and Katie the bass notes. You did say Lawrence could figure it out himself," Freddy said with some attitude.
"OKAY, OKAY!" Ned said into the mic, "Calm down! The School of Rock will be on in a sec, give them some time!"
The crowd went quiet and, "What if we don't want to wait?" a deep voice yelled from the crowd.
"Well, " Ned said as a confused look crossed his face, " Too Bad."
The crowd began to chant, "School of Rock, School of Rock, " again and again.
"Just get this over with, " Katie scolded.
"Okay...G, Em, Am, D... do that over and over in a 3/4 series, Zack. Also, add something snazzy. Lawrence, come up with something great. Katie, if you truly are the awesome achiever I think you are..."
"Yeah, yeah," she interrupted.
"Freddy, 3/4 series all right?" Ned continued, shooting Katie a look. "Duey, you know the words."
"G, Em, Am, D...something snazzy..." Zack repeated over to himself over and over again.
"Let's get it goin' here, " another random person with a New York accent in the crowd yelled impaitently. "We don't have all day." This was followed by some "Yeahs" and "He's rights " from the crowd.
"All right, " Zack said proudly. "I think I have it, "
"1...2...1,2,3,4, "
