------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------For the next week Dani was busy working, then helping plan the wedding details, then practice with the band, and working out house details. Ever since they had decided to build, there were so many details to be worked out.
It was Thursday night, the band had just left, Jeremy was getting them something to drink before they started working on new songs. Danielle had run upstairs to change into something more comfortable. The phone rang and Jeremy hollered up the stairs, "Do you want me to grab that?"
"No, I'll get it." Dani replied. She didn't need him answering the phone in case it was Randy. She looked at the caller id and the number wasn't familiar. "Hello?" She said with a puzzled look on her face.
"Yes I'm looking for Danielle, the lead singer of Jewel Chest." The male voice responded.
"This is Danielle, but I'm only the substitute lead singer for Jewel Chest." She responded. "Who's this?"
"My name is Daniel, I work for Capitol Records. We're looking for demo singers and bands, and I was told to hear you play. Where will you be next?" The caller said.
Danielle was stunned. "Well, we're playing at The Wild, Wild West Club in St. Louis on Friday night and we'll be playing at The Mirage in St. Louis on Saturday night." She replied.
"Hmm…Ok, I'll be out to see you on Saturday night at the Mirage." Daniel said as he wrote it in his book. "I don't mean to be a pain, but if you can, try to play a variety of styles, that would be wonderful."
"That's no problem sir, we play music from all genres." Danielle replied confidently.
"Good, I'll introduce myself Saturday night before I leave. Have a good night." And he hung up.
Danielle screamed and ran downstairs. "Oh my god, oh my god." She said as she grabbed onto Jeremy and jumped a couple times. Then stopped herself because she wasn't sure if she should be jumping.
"What, what, what?" Jeremy asked jumping with her.
"There's a guy from Capitol Records coming to hear us play Saturday night. He's looking for people to sing demos and bands to play demos." Danielle said trying to catch her breath.
"What? Oh my god, that's great! We have to celebrate." Jeremy said giving her a hug.
Danielle hugged him, "No, we need to add a few really good songs to blow him away."
"Sounds good to me." Jeremy said as he pulled out his guitar.
For the next three hours, they worked on many different songs. Finally, Dani's fingers were so numb she had to stop. "I have to call it a night, I'm dragging and I have a presentation at 9:00am."
Jeremy laughed, "No problem. We'll do great Saturday night. Do you still want to carpool to St. Louis?"
"Yeah, I'll pick you up." Dani said as she walked him to the door. She walked upstairs and crawled into bed. Just as she started to fall asleep, her phone rang. "Hello?"
"Hey princess." Randy said sweetly. "Did I wake you up?"
"I was just going to bed. How are you?" Dani asked.
"Good. How is everything going?" Randy asked.
"Busy, I have an account presentation at 9:00am, a lunch meeting at 12:00pm and then I have a girls night out tomorrow night." Dani replied. Just so happens she forgot to mention that she would be performing at the Wild, Wild, West Club.
"What a busy day. I just wanted to let you know that Shelton, Dave and I and probably some others are going to be going out tomorrow night so I won't be around in case you try to call."
"Ok, sounds good. You boys have lots of fun and don't get into too much trouble." Dani said sleepily. "I love you, but I need to go to sleep."
"I love you too baby. Good night." Randy said and he hung up.
The next day seemed to fly by, Dani worked all day, then wound up staying late. Got home, showered, got ready, called and told Alyssa all about tomorrow night, then picked up Jeremy and they headed off to St. Louis.
The performance went great, there were some great requests. The crowd was hot. Dani got a little nervous when she seen a few of the wrestlers show up, but since Randy didn't like country music she didn't have to worry too much. Jeremy and Dani did a few duets that night, and they went over wonderfully! They had a great chemistry together, and it showed through their performance.
She gave Jeremy a ride home, and went home and went to bed. The next day was going to be a big one.
Please read and review! Next chapter is Saturday!
