Stolkien Musical Competition AU: Come On

SOOOO the way it works is a little less America's Got Singing and more of a combination of the Carole and Tuesday contest and Sing where its more about putting on a good show to get the audience to pay attention week after week. Stan is still the lead of Crimson Dawn, but the members get shifted around and perform with other people for the sake of variety and to demonstrate various skills to the audience/judges.

This is how prettyboy pop singer Tolkien ends up singing lead on a punk song with Stan on guitar, Jimmy on drums, and Red on bass. What song is it? This one baby!

Tolkien: This is stupid, there's only two words in this song. What's the point of even having a lead singer? 😒 Its like someone chopped the chorus out of something else. Kyle: WELL its the song we got the rights to. Lets take it from the top everyone!

They play it through and...its ass. Tolkien isn't leading the music at all and the brash rhythm is all over the place.

Red: This SUCKS. I should take lead on this! Cartman: Nah, we got you doing a country song with Nelly this week, we can't feature you twice. Red: FINNEEE but I'm gonna make that song SUPER gay. 😏 Kyle: Noted. We still need to uh...address some issues here. Tolkien: Issues like what? 💢 Cartman: ...Hey Stan? Stan: What? You want me to sing? Tolkien: Be my fuckin' guest. Kyle: NO, no, just...maybe you can offer some guidance here? Stan: 🙄 Whatever...

Stan shows Tolkien about how to really *wail* without wrecking his voice similar to his death metal screams. They practice putting your whole body and energy into the delivery, and how to stay on beat even while EVERYTHINg is loud and messy and its a LOT for Tolkien to take in.

When he finally nails it in the first runthrough, he makes eye contact with Stan and its like Stan's guitar is answering Tolkien's vocals in an intense and entertaining back-and-forth of pure ROCK. 🤘

When the group performs it live in their monochromatic suits, for the entire duration no one can take their eyes off Tolkien. He's been the Solo Singer with a Backup Band before, but this is the first time he's seemed like a part of a band. In this story, this is the first time he really "gets" that aspect of performing live, and before this he maybe even wrote off Stan as more of a whiney punk who makes up for a lack of talent with volume. It's a good chance for them to see each other as something more than just a rival........ 👀
