Intro.
I'm JJ Yokimura. I sing for my band Wonder Why, with my twin sister, Elsa, (drummer) and our friends, Jade (bassist) Mark (lead guitar) and Adam (rhythm guitar.)I've got blackish blue hair and an amazing boyfriend named Leo. This year we're on Warped with great bands like Crown the Empire, Issues, Pierce the Veil, and All Time Low.

"Alright, now you guys sing it with me!" I screamed as the crowd finished our last song,
"No darling, it was never a lie." Thousands of cheers from the fans ensued.
"Thank you to everyone who came to see us, you guys are fucking amazing!!" I shouted to rap up our set.

Ten minutes later.

"Wow JJ! That was great!" Said May, my best friend and manager.
"You really think so?" I said, as I grabbed a towel to wipe my face after another great set.
"Of course! You guys have made it here so fast and are so successful considering how long you guys have been together."
May is right. We've only been a band for about three years. We got signed to Rise when Elsa and I were barely out of college, while Adam and Mark were already 26. Jade never went to college with us, she was dedicated to our band, and believed that college would just be a distraction to our progress.
Anyway, one year later, we went on tour with We Are The In Crowd, Echosmith, and State Champs, as well as an album that made it to #4 on the Rock charts and an invitation to be on Vans Warped Tour '19. So here we are.
"Well, you've got about an hour and a half before the signing, so you guys can go venture off, " May said, and with that we were dismissed.
"JJ, you wanna go watch Crown the Empire with me and Mark? They're gonna be on in about twenty minutes," Jade asked me.
"Oh my gosh, why did you even ask that? Of course!!" I said with a laugh as I grabbed an ice cold Aquafina from the cooler.
"Well I'm going to find AJ," my twin sister Elsa huffed, referring to her boyfriend, AJ Rebollo of Issues. Then she walked off.
"Bye baby, I'll catch you later," Mark said to May, with a peck on the cheek and a hug goodbye. And with that, we were off towards the main stage.
It was so amazing that this magic has been alive for a quarter of a century. It seems that is was just two years ago when Elsa, Mark, and I were standing at a booth, trying to get people to try out our music.
Things can really change in short amounts of time.
