I let out a sigh. "Finally here," I muttered, setting down my bag. "Let's hope that the others are here too."
The studio that we were all meant to be wasn't particularly grand, to be honest. It was a table, able to sit about eight people. There were headphones for each person sitting there. There was also an iPad set into the table at each seat. The table itself was wooden, and had a light yellow-brown colour. A few people were about, setting the studio up. For us, the table was our workplace. For the others, the ones that are behind the scenes, the nearby office full of mixing tables and recording studios was theirs. And it's these guys who make all of it happen.
"Ooh, hello, Samo," said a girl's voice. One I recognised well.
"Rena, you big-breasted loveable git!" I opened my arms, into which she ran happily. I gave her a big hug, albeit I could feel her chest pressing against mine.
"Hey, babe," she said. "Took your time getting here, man!"
I shrugged as she let go of me. "Traffic was shit. But hey," I added, looking around. "We the only people here?"
Rena shook her head. "Naah, Travis, Zack, Nate and Raven are here too. Uhmm... I think Yates is on his way too, and that's it."
I grumbled. "Fuck. I hate that bastard Yates."
Rena and I sat down next to each other. "Ah well, ya don't have to talk to him. All we're doing is answering questions, right?"
And as if on que, everyone arrived for the start of the show. Travis gave me a nod, whilst Zack fist bumped me. I gave Raven a hug. I smiled.
"Ok guys!" I said, turning on my iPad, and put on my headphones, just as Yates walked in. "Let's get this show on the road!"
The people in the office turned on the mixing tables, and the recording studio went live.
"ToLife is up and running guys!" said one of the technicians.
"Let's get started!" I said with a grin, firing up the music. "Hello everybody!
"For those of you who are listening, and are confused... Don't be! This is ToLife, a new show where you can comment and give us questions for the people in the studio. Any questions you have, ask away! Every Wednesday, we'll be here to answer your questions. And we'll answer them personally, so you won't be having just an average answer by me."
Rena smiled. "That's right, we ARE here guys! So ask away!"
I grinned. 'God, I hope this works...'
