The Challenge:
Abbey vs. the Computers (Test Process to Sucess)
The Verdict:
The 70s are back but decades have past and the music has been forgotten. The
year is 2071. Sickly One is on his dying bed. He had always hoped that his
final breaths were peaceful and that his daughter Abbey would be forever happy.
He had a long hard life. Without the music to get him through, his time was
nearing the end. All he has left is his daughter, the Czech Chick tune in his
head, and the dang Flute Part From the Heart. There is this yearning deep in
his mind that has been blocked for as long as he could remember. It causes him
to look as if he is constantly thinking very deeply but he never says a word.
Abbey reads to the old man their favorite story Wolfman strolls ever so
contently down the halls of FCHS when Sickly One interrupts, Wait, I have an
idea! But I want to tell you a story, she says. Sickly One goes on, I have
an Ultimate Challenge!
SO: I had a cool idea in the area of getting the band back together without
entirely getting the band back together. It seems were into feeding off others
ideas. First were their Gefas Theme, then the mildly cheesy but fun Ultimate
Challenges. For instance, a match was thought of by Bo. Test Vagina vs. Stunt
Cock
AM: Oh no, I dont need to hear this. Can we just skip this lesson?
SO: Listen. It was finished by me and the next story was vice-versa. With each
match different characters and ideas were thrown into the challenges as well as
new writers. In the end you have a random work of art. As each challenge is
written and each writer is added, less time is consumed by each individual
writer. That probably didnt make sense.
AM: Dad, what the heck are you talking about. Your band broke up almost 7
decades ago. Youve finally lost it.
SO: Just Listen. I mentioned something about a beer list to add to Bos boob
list so he could have titties and beer. This idea gave Bo an even greater idea
hence the growingly successful Beer Battle. This sent brainwaves to James and
he even modified it further by creating the option of letting people sign up and
enter their own brews and comments. Feeding from that Bo and James as well as
some others I believe have rendered Live Updates letting people, friends if you
will, enter whats going on in their life as well as giving Bo shit. Jamess
design was flawless.
What I am getting at is: Say you were to have an idea; a good idea like a cool
drum beat but your abilities to complete it werent up to par. You send the
beat to someone else and they add their abilities and so on. I know what you
are thinking. Is that not what a band is? Not entirely wrong but how many
times to bands finish albums with out getting together to play? The problem
here is that you have to have similar or compatible recording tools.
It sounds too expensive and impossible but can you imagine a web site that did
this. To join you would have to buy a recorder. 4-tracks started at $75. That
would have been the basic deal. We needed some kind of setup where people could
join in and listen to what others have created and pick the ones they would like
to add to. In the end you would receive a CD mixed by either yourself or if
you dont feel like you can you can let Record Producer Bo Boswell send you a
copy of your co-written song as well as a T-shirt!
The cool thing is that someone from Cowan could record with someone from
Nigeria. Something similar has been done before but not so involved. It could
be a new genre of music that would sustain forever until 3:00 in the morning
with your Earphones on. With that said Id let this deal go for only $200 one
time membership including a T-shirt, a recorder, and a special edition Turn-up
for your effect pedals. The problem was that my input wasnt enough. I needed
help, but ended up in a life of beer and skittles. The booze halted us. I
cant remember anything after that.
AM: Your band is broken up and you retired from sales 10 years ago. Its over.
Just get some rest.
SO: Oh yeah..Wait.No, this is merely the beginning. What I didnt know was
that everything that was written went into the Halicon Trove. I only remember
this because I am part of the portal. Everything else has been erased by the
Computers. Even our memories. Weve become the computers. Upon going into the
site, the Trove gained access to the book entitled The Ultimate Challenges of
the Wolfman Clan. Many of the stories from it you know.
AM: Where will I find this book?
SO: There is only one or two ways to do it. You must go to the Bookkeeper Wane
Wolfman. Get the book from Wanes tomb in Belvedere and/or gather the remaining
members of Cashmere Love Crash. I also heard that there was a copy of the book
in Chattanooga, but Im not sure if it has access. If only the band hadnt broken up we might have made it, but that is neither
here nor there.
AM: But I cant take it from the grave.
SO: You must get it. It is my destiny and yours. We have to change the past. We
have to bring back the 70s. We have to go back and start the project. The
World depends on it. We have to link everyone back.
AM: Dont worry dad. Ill get it.
SO: Wait Take this with you and remember. No matter what you see other people
do, do what you know is right. You have to get the right members or it wont
work though. You must beware of the Arlo. Hes not a member. (A Green
Substance was given to Abbey. She raised it in the air and a tune played.)
