*Vic's POV*

So here we are in Albany, New York, where we're going to do a free show for anyone who comes out tonight. We put up signs all around town for everyone to see about a week ago, asking if people would come to see us. Hopefully people will come out and support us.

It's been a long week getting three songs done. But one week for three songs is literally a perfect start. Not many bands can do that.

11:59 am...12:00 pm, a perfect time to start out a show. The sun was scintillating outside and the clouds were no where in sight. The sun's harmful rays shined down on my dark skin, making me glow. Jaime chuckled at me, knowing I put on body lotion before we left the bus.

"You look like God, Vic. You're sparkling like crazy," Jaime said, stating the obvious. "You even have his hair."

"Victoria's Secret didn't have anything without sparkles. Excuse me if their Coconut and Vanilla lotion smells good. They have the best kind of lotion."

Adam, our photographer, and Tony giggled at me, along with Jaime and Mike.

We continued walking along to the venue, everyone just yammering about what's gonna happen and how everything is gonna roll for the day.

"Hey, Vic! Smile for the camera! This is gonna be your first photo," Adam blurted before snapping a picture of me.

"I wasn't ready! I wasn't ready! Delete it," I shot at him.

"Nope," he smiled, grinning at me in the evilest way possible.

I peeked from behind the curtain and saw that we had a small audience. Of course it's small; no one from New York even knows who we are because we're from California. But it was still something we had going on.

"Alright guys, our first mini show for a small crowd! You ready?" I asked my band mates.

"Hell yeah!" Mike hollered. "Let's fucking go!"

We huddled up and began our warm-up. We finally came up with a name for it. The Devil.

"And 1, 2, 3, 4...HEY, VIC!"

"UH HUH?"

"THE DEVIL."

"HERE WE GO."

"THE DEVIL IS EVERYWHEEERE."

"HEY, TONY!"

"WHAT?"

"THE DEVIL."

"HUH?"

"THE DEVIL IS EVERYWHEEERE."

"HEY, MIKE!"

"OOOH!"

"THE DEVIL."

"MMHMM."

"THE DEVIL IS EVERYWHEEERE."

"HEY, JAIME!"

"SUP?"

"THE DEVIL."

"I'LL GET 'EM!"

"THE DEVIL IS EVERYWHEEERE...P.T.V! WOOOOO!"

Our intro started up. We literally made this part up yesterday and called it May These Noises Startle You In Your Sleep Tonight. It goes right into the first song we're gonna start.

Short yells and cheers sounded through the audience. We ran on stage and everyone stood up, screaming and cheering for us. Wow, for an audience who doesn't know any of our songs, they sure as hell are excited to be here.
