Episode 7:Whiplash Metallica
The stage went black and silent. No one moved or made a sound for 30 seconds. Then all of a sudden Sonic Spark Manic Sonia Chris and Tails played 4 sets of 4 fast notes. After that everyone but Manic played a sustained note while Manic played a bass/tom heavy drum beat. This happened 4 more times, then they transitioned to the main riff to the song/ Manic was still playing the same beat. He held it for 3 more measures then together it was very fast and loud.
"Come on people make some noise," yelled Spark into sonics mike. The crowd cheered in response and everyone on stage smiled. After 4 measures of the main riff the band transitioned to the verse riff wich was really cool. At the end of the 4th measure Manic played a measure long fill. Then Sonic came in singing the first verse to the song Whiplash by Metallica.
Late at night all systems go
You've come to see the show
we do our best your the rest
You make it real you know
Theres a feeling deep inside
that drives you F***ing mad
a feeling of a hammerhead
You need it oh so bad
The band went into the chorus:
Adrenaline starts to flow
You're thrashing all around
Actin like a Maniac
Sonic points to the crowd. They gladly screamed:
WHIPLASH!!!!!!!!!
They went back to the main riff before heading into the next verse Sonic sang again:
Bang your head against the stage
Like you never did before
Make it ring make it bleed
Make it really sore
In a frenzied madness
With your leathers and your spikes
Heads are bobbing all around
It's hot as h*** tonight
They went back to the chorus:
Adrenaline starts to flow
Your thrashing all around
Actin Like a Maniac
Whiplash!
The next go around went the same way:
here on stage the Marshall noise
Is piercing through your ears
Kicks your A** kics your face
Exploding feeling nears
Nows the time to let it rip
To let it F***ing lose
We're gathered here to maim and kill
Cause this is what we choose
Back to the chorus:
Adrenaline starts to flow
Your thrashing all around
Acting like a Maniac
Whiplash!!!!
Manic played a quick fill then the band went into a new riff. It was lead by Chris and Tails who were having a bass battle. It lasted for 8 measures then Spark yelled out "HERE WE GO1" With that Spark and Sonic went into the solo trading parts as they played most of the night. Soon the solo came to an end with every band member in the band holding a single note, then everyone in the bar screamed out:
Whiplash!
The solo came back on and it lasted for 8 measures once it ended Sonic sang the next verse:
the show is through, the metal is gone
It's time to hit the road
Another town another gig
Again we will expload
Hotel rooms and Motorways
Life out here is raw
but we will never stop we'll never quit
(Spark)
Cause your Metallica
The band reached the Chorus of the song:
adrenaline starts to flow
Your thrashing all around
actin like a maniac
Soon the band reached the outro to the song. Soon the whole band held a long note and everyone yelled out "WHIPLASH!"
As The Song came to an end the fans went nuts.
Sonic: Thank you Station Square and Good night.
With that the band went back stage. Spark had the most awsome night ever. Maybe the Underground will let him perform with them again maybe just maybe,
Up next Enter Eggman
