Jason: *enters the band's dressing room*  Um, guys, there's 3 totally insane GD girls sitting in Row 2, and I think you all should be really scared.

Rob: Why?  They're just average fans, aren't they?

Chad: Well, no, see, these are GDERS...

Adam:  Oooh!  I haven't written to them in ages.  Hey Kyle, can I borrow your pink glittery pants?

Kyle:  No, Adam, I'm tired of you stretching them out in the ass!!!

Brian:  *quietly sits in corner and does his "MS" video look*

Rob: Okay, seriously, what's wrong with these people?

Jason: Well, from talking to them online, they seem really nice and cool.  But now there's THREE of them sitting together...frankly, I'm frightened.  They're so...excited.

Chad:  They're insanely screaming your all's names and singing "Real World" at the tops of their lungs!!!  AHHHH!!!  *goes insane and runs out of the room screaming*

Paul:  Oooh...are any of them wearing a dress?  I need a new one, and I'm willing to trade for autographs...

Adam:  Or pants?  Pink glittery pants???

Rob:  GUYS!  Hush!  We might just have a serious security problem here.

Jason:  Perhaps we should hose them down???

Brian:  *shocked expression grows, starts to say something, but then just goes back to shocked fear*

Paul:  Young, wet, excited fans?  Careful, Old Man Child Molester over there might get excited...

Adam:  *gets excited*  Please...they're so...pink...plus, the LADIES might like 'em...hehehe

Kyle:  YOU ARE NEVER BORROWING MY PANTS AGAIN, J-LO HASHBROWN!

Rob:  Okay, back to the ISSUE at hand.  So Jason, what do you suggest?

Jason:  Well, Rob, I'd say you all just go out there and perform your hearts out.  That, and let them touch your pants.

Adam: Pan...

Kyle:  Those are LEATHER, Adam!

Adam:  Damn.

Paul:  Are they pink, though?

Rob:  No, I think we can all plainly see that I'm wearing my black ones tonight, with special Beep Beep enhancing features.  Makes the ladies go Varoom Varoom!

Adam & Paul:  Do they come in pink?

Kyle:  Do they?

Brian:  *shakes head in shame*

Rob:  No.  For the love of God, no.  Anyway, I suppose we can do that.  Besides, I could use a little tush rub before the show...

Paul:  So, Rob...

Rob:  From the GDERS, Paul...we'll discuss, ahem, that later.

Jason:  Alright then, I think we can handle this situation!  Any questions before the show, then?

Brian:  Do the leather pants come in glittery?
Episode 1:  What The Guys Go Through Before The Show
In this episode of As The Match Burns...

Chad and Jason are afraid, very afraid.  And so is Brian..

As always, every episode is written out of fun.  If you're taking this seriously, you probably didn't understand "Mad Season," either, and therefore really shouldn't read this anyway.
NEXT TIME, on As The Match Burns...

We don't know if there will be a next time yet.  Who knows, this may flop, and crash and burn!  HAHAHA!    Maybe.  I dunno, sure, I should be saying what the author paid me to say, but hell, I get paid by the word, and she didn't write much, so there.
Whee!  Take me back to the index now, Jeeves!
