Entering through the backdoor of the Moon Theatre four hours before the concert, Bodi, Angus, Darma, Grem and Trey arrived at the backstage to get ready for their one-night only concert. That was it, the highlight of their trip to St Jupiter. For the citizens of the small town, this would be the highlight of the evening, without a doubt.


After a small briefing by Buster, they let the backstage crew set up their earpieces for the concert while they, along with Johnny and Ash who just arrived, went through the schedule. Less than four hours later, they need to be on stage with their equipment ready. They chose the order of the songs prior to their arrival at the small town.


"Johnny, about your three songs?" Bodi asked the gorilla while he put on his earpiece.


"So, we got the opening act 'Break Away', then me and Ash's duet of 'I Will Believe' and that song all of us had a paw in, 'Storm'? Buster's getting those backing tracks ready."


The mastiff nodded, knowing everything was in place for the concert to be successful. "Alright, everyone. We know what to do."


Everyone huddled up to execute their signature.


Bodi: "One, two, three..."


Everyone: "Rock Dog!"

Two Hours Before Start of Concert

Swifty had a splitting headache the moment he woke up from his hangover. He found himself back inside the suite, on his bed. Jade was waiting beside him.


"Jade?" The arctic fox got up from his bed.


The red fox sighed and explained that he slept for sixteen hours.


"And the concert is going to start soon," Jade continued. "Bodi got us VIP tickets."


The arctic fox suddenly got excited as he almost forgot about the concert. "I'll get ready!" the arctic fox rushed to the bathroom for a shower.


Jade felt relieved over Swifty getting excited over the concert. In fact, the whole SwiftyTV were looking forward.


Knowing there was nothing else she could do, she left the room to join the others in the living area.

One Hour Before Start of Concert

Outside of the theatre, Buster watched on as streams of Rock Dog fans start to enter the theatre. They had to go through a security check (bag check and metal detector screening) before they were allowed to enter the theatre, arranged in a rock concert formation.


"How's your side, Eddie?" Buster communicated with Eddie on a walkie-talkie.
