I'm sorry guys Embarassed

I got a little carried with writing this one, ended up much larger than I intended.

Apologies for grammer or spelling. I am in danger of badly writing without a great spellchecker. Hope it makes somewhat sense.

Name: Christmas Davis
Real Name: ???? ???????
Age: 20
Instrument: Guitar
Songwriting: No
Nationality: English/Welsh

Born in the British Isles, not much else is known about Christmas Davis's origins. No one has come forward to claim him as their child and all of what is known about his upbringing comes from his mouth alone. Growing up he was an only child but was never lonely as he claims everybody loved him. The other kids would always borrow his toys as his father was the manager of a toy shop. While he was sad to see them leave (he saw not one return) he would always let them borrow them because that's what "kind boys do yeah" and anyway his father would always bring new ones home, along with new Tv's, microwaves and car radios. When he was 9, his life was changed forever when his dad became a police officer. Recalling the night it happened as "sad and great yeah" he felt pride watching the two officers walk his dad to the car as his mother cried beside him. He has never seen his father since.

Weeks later he moved into a new house with his mother. Despite the bathtub being green, no carpet on the floors and the broken windows he was overjoyed with this new abode because it had a pet rat. While he was thrilled with his new companion, the fact there were new toys deeply saddened him and he took solace in Christmas, the only time of year where he would get something new. On the Christmas Christmas was 14 years old, Christmas received an acoustic guitar. Initially he used it as a house for a family of Corktops he owned but soon put his rat companion in there. While he enjoyed his new house at first, it died minutes later. In despair Christmas was soon haunted by the ghost of his friend who he claims appeared to him not all white and shiny but as if he was real. Crying one night during another visit, he tried to reach for his former friend to make amends but accidently brushed against the guitar. The noise from the strings caused the rat to flee. Afterwards he noticed the rat would only go away if he played the strings. He soon decided his former friend would only leave him alone if he learned the guitar and in his furry name that's what he set out to do.

Armed with the only album with a guitar his mother had, Stereophonics 'Just Enough Education To Perform', Christmas set about religiously perfecting his new found love. Finishing school at 16 and only ever holding down one job at 'Home Bargins' for 6 months, he had plenty of time to himself. In an effort to expand his musical knowledge, Christmas borrowed a kind neighbors CD collection and Stereo. Despite a fondness for the older man who gave him Bon Jovi's 'Cross Road' one day, he believes he was the one who got the police to arrest him. He was happy when he was sent to a young offenders boot camp as there were no police there and therefore no chance he'll meet his dad.

Life in the camp was strict. The food sucked, they made you run places and they always shouted. The councilor he feared most in the camp was the one named Piston Bostock. Every word which that came from his mouth was a shout, he hit people who either looked at him or didn't and he had a bulging eye which looked ready to pop out at any given moment. One day when addressing the campers, Piston grabbed Christmas by the collar and with his big almost touching his face snarled "If you runaway, by god I will chase you to hell to get you back" This and "rice crispies yeah" were on his mind 3 weeks later when he escaped with a fellow drifter on the night of Christmas Eve.

After saving the fellow's life from an oncoming train the same night, he felt indebted to Christmas and got his sister to make him a passport and a new identity to live a new life in America. Christmas thinks it was Roger but has since forgotten it as he threw it away when he left the airport. In a strange new town and with less than $100 in his pocket, Chirstmas "was as good as dead" according to The Flow's sound recorder 'Lukas Vetovski'. As fate would have it, Christmas, lulled inside by a flickering neon guitar on the front of a local band lockup, found Lukas and Eric packing up after miserable auditions for a guitarist. Upon seeing an acoustic guitar again, Christmas dashed towards it and with passion played for hours. It was as clear to the two guys as the smell moldy cheese and animals dropping that had now invaded the room, this was the one for them.

I'm not sure what other concrete things to go withfor the profile. Would nationality be a good one perhaps? I'll make a thread with all of them collected together in the moment, full profiles and all.

I was reading the mail you sent me and if for the songwriting you mean the main forces in the band, I think you have the two key members spot on. I think Wolffy Wolf will be a close third place though as he has the words under control and may be the most prominent lyric writer.

Before we start the thing proper some guidelines will be added to give direction. I'll try to be reasonable but I'll listen to any objections. Stuff like stoping an album release until several months in and get out of death free cards for the first 2 years.

I'll try lay out my ideas before I fall asleep tonight haha

Edit: Is the songwriting about right now? I edited the profile post. Feel free to say if it should be changed for anyone.

Got an idea for our first hit single:

"My life is a hole, just like your bum".

Yeah, a bit of a prominent 3 will arise.

I think the direction and rules is a good idea otherwise someone will die in week 2.

Name: Chee
Species: Capuchin Monkey
Bio: Lukas' pet monkey since he found him hanging around a park near his home and took him in. Very smart and receptive for a chimp, and having watched Lukas experiment with music through most of his life, started learning the ropes without anyone noticing. When Lukas left for college and started the band with Eric, the monkey came along on the former's luggage.

Sitting in on their jamming and practice sessions, the guys noticed the monkey kept making rhythms with claps and hits on nearby objects. When they sat him on the throne, he quickly understood hitting the drums made different noises. Half an hour later he was rocking out. For now he's not really a part of the band, but he's there every time they practice and jam, and may come to be part of the main lineup with time and practice.
