## Band Cutscenes

### **Penguin Band & Ross Conversation (September 11th)**

If you clicked on any of the the Penguin Band or Rossband members inside the Lighthouse during September 11th, this conversation would play out:

**Ross**: "...What are you doing here?"

**Stompin' Bob**: "We're here to play, Ross. You can watch as long as you don't try to ruin it again."

**Ross**: "Woah woah woah, WE'RE the ones who are playing this venue. Back off, mooks. I outbid you."

**Stompin' Bob**: "Oh please, you and that monochrome troupe are gonna play the Lighthouse?"

**G Billy**: "Let's all calm down. Petey K just told me about a way we can solve this, and have fun, too!"

**Petey K**: "Yes, yes. How about a simple competition to prove who is superior?"

**Ross**: "...I'm listening."

**Petey K**: "Put a voting booth outside. Whoever gets the most votes wins, and plays the Lighthouse."

**Ross**: "Oho, you are SO on! DRUMS! PIANO! BASS! CHANGE OF PLANS!"

**Franky**: "...Did he address them by their instrument?"

**Stompin' Bob**: "...You completely missed the fact that he just used our stolen instruments as bases for theirs."

**G Billy**: "Guys, guys. It dosen't matter. We came here to play and have a good time, and that's what we're gonna do."

**Franky**: "...Yeah. It's just that it's HIM that we're gonna have to go against. He's a celebrity now. An awful one."

**G Billy**: "And we can still win! But let's not make our visit back home all about competition, OK?"

### **Band Cutscenes (From September 12th - September 17th)**

Starting from September 12th, the bands had their own stages. This time, there were two cutscenes - a Penguin Band one and a Rossband one. You had to click on one of those bands to view their cutscene.

***Penguin Band Cutscene:***

**Franky:** "I still can't believe that Ross created a band that is literally JUST our band, except he's in charge."

**Stompin' Bob:** "I can. Ross was always a control freak when he played with us. Theft, though... seems extreme."

**Petey K:** "I've been thinking about that. Was his entire goal to copy our instruments down to the inch?"

**Stompin' Bob:** "Well, he was able to get famous pretty much as soon as he stole them, so..."

**Petey K:** "Yes, but I've been following his activity. The band is new. I think he WANTED this clash."

**G Billy:** "Even if he did, guys, it's not gonna change our resolve. The most important part of this is to have fun!"

**Stompin' Bob:** "Of course, yeah, but don't you wanna win? Ross hurt you just as much, man."

**G Billy:** "Well, of course I do. But I don't want this thing to stress us out, or worse, split us apart."

**Stompin' Bob:** "... ... ..."

**Petey K:** "No, he's right. We need to keep morale up, or we give Ross what he wants."

**Franky:** "Yeah, I get it! Let's not let Ross get to us, guys! Let's just play our hearts out!"

**Stompin' Bob:** "...Yeah. Let's put on a show the crowd'll never forget. I'm gonna jam out!"

**G Billy:** "Yeah! That's the spirit! Let's sing a shanty!"

***Rossband Cutscene:***

**Ross:** "We've gotta keep up with those losers on the other side! Drums, play faster!"

**Rossband Member (Drums):** "...Boss, I'm playing as fast as I can. My flippers are gonna fall off!"

**Ross:** "...Whatever. Just do what I tell you, and you might get the chance to leech off me. Piano?"

**Rossband Member (Piano):** "Doing all I can, Mr. Ross. Piano speed has increased by 12.5% in the last couple of mesaures."

**Rossband Member (Bass):** "Sir, just because I said I'm a strings player dosen't mean I can play bass. I'm a cellist!"

**Ross:** "I don't care! We need to WIN! If we end up losing this thing, I swear you will never play again!"

**All Rossband Members:** "...Yes, Ross."

### **Band Vote Contest Aftermath (September 17th - September 21st)**

The Rossband Members joined the Penguin Band's stage in the Lighthouse. If you clicked the stage, this cutscene would appear:

***Penguin Band & Rossband cutscene:***

**Franky:** Howdy Folks! Thanks so much for picking us to play the Lighthouse! We really appriciate the support!"

**G Billy:** "Yeah! But we wanted to share the fun with the second place takers. They sounded great out there!"

**Franky:** "Give a warm welcome to... Well, they're not going by *"Rossband"* anymore, so..."

**Rossband Member (Piano):** "I'm sure we can figure it out later. Thanks so much for this, you guys. Ross tore us up..."

**Petey K:** "Don't worry about him. We're not as rich, but we can hook you up with some gigs."

**Stompin' Bob:** "We can save all that for later, though. Let's jam!"

Ross was placed in the Beach, lying face down after his defeat. Here's his cutscene:

***Ross Cutscene:***

**Ross:** "...Where did it all go wrong? Not only did I lose, the Penguin Band dorks seem stronger than ever!"

"I am at a loss... I'm completely defeated..."

"FOR NOW!"

"That's right, Penguin Band... laugh now, while you still can..."

"Because next time, I won't just be playing to win. I'm going to CRUSH your spirits completely!"

"As soon as mine's healed... I need my private jet! Now!"
