You all know the score. This is a parody and nothing more. The names of the bands bare no relations to current/past bands.
Buffy and co. are all property of their respected studios etc. So therefore all the rest belong to me, any copying will result in a large number of lawyers ransacking your homes in anger. ;) This is a work of fiction and nothing more. Enjoy it or hate it please rate it… as this is my first go at it.
Cheers.

Where do I begin? In four years my life from student lay about to rock superstar has been an amazing ride, times has been tough but other times has been phenomenal. But what was best? The thousands screaming at your presence on stage? The money? The parties? Or the women? I know and I'll tell you.
This is the short version of my rise; the long one is too dull. It all started back in university when me and four other guys decided to form a band, our goal was to destroy that thing called popular music and all that it stood for, four angry young men looking for a way to reach the masses we turned to rock. After much searching four more guys joined the band, which was, christen 'Organized Solitude'. It was our very own posse who all contributed to the band. I was the lead singer and could play no instruments at all but it never troubled me. The band spent at least a year writing and playing small gigs; the biggest capacity crowd we attracted was around 200, not much huh? But one record company spotted us and before you know it we produced an album, it sold 16000 worldwide. At least someone brought it!
We were delighted nonetheless and we drank what profit we had and partied in Holland whenever we could.
This stopped briefly after another year because our big break came, well more slapped us in the face. A small U.S movie was being produced and the makers contacted us to write a song for the film, never in my time with the band have we worked so hard, never have we been so sober for so long. But then it was ready and sent off to America, we waited and waited, six months later we got a call from our U.S contacts, the film was number 8 in the charts, we released the song that week and then it was there, 34 on the billboard charts but not for long, it peaked at number 6! Yes six!
Here in the UK we made number 10 alone all thanks to the expose in the U.S but best of all we had two number ones, in Germany and Australia, we loved those guys.
Our contracts was extended, money was pouring in, more drinking began, and an album was produced, with our second single reaching number 4 in America and number 9 in the UK. The album wasn't a big success but we sold more than our last one that's for sure.
It all went wrong a year ago and we split rather angrily, but I managed to keep one of our base players with me and formed a new band, 'The Others'. Me on vocals, Jon on base, Rich on lead guitars, Dave on guitars and our drummer was a find, Suzie. Let me tell you about Suzie, she was born in Hammersmith, London and has a long musical background, she always wanted to go into music but found many groups ignored female drummers but Suzie was a find, not only was she good she was amazing. She was also stunning, chocolate skin you just want to eat, short dark hair to compliment her beautiful face, 34D breast that really have a life of their own when were playing, sometimes it's very hard to concentrate, trust me. But Suzie was a tough girl, she made it clear she wanted to be recognised for her talents and not her breasts, and we understood her feelings which is why this band got on so well, we were forward and truthful, if we were shit on stage, we'll say so.
The band worked and worked, we found a new record company and produced an album, it was a great success, we broke the U.S market with our first number one but still missed out on the UK one, success was all down in fairness to the record company for publicising the band so much.
Then a bigger break came, days after our number one, a long distance call from the representatives of Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV show wanted us to appear on the show, we agreed and this is were the fun began.
We guessed as a vampire band touring the world and eating the groupies after show, we do a gig at Sunnydale where as you guessed it Buffy sorts us out. We were on screen a total of 4 mins but it was cool even the two hours in make up. Of course the best part was the women, Willow, sorry Alison, Emma Caulfield and of course Sarah Michelle Gellar.
Now Sarah was and still is one of the women in the world who you just can't help but stare at and who looks stunning no matter what time of day it is, what situation or what she has on. Being around her was amazing; although we had met a number of so called celebs, with the exception of Angelina Jolie and J-lo, no one like Sarah made me nervous. Sarah was a quiet girl when it came to off set interaction, the cast were like a family so it was hard as one off guests to break into that clique but the night after our shoot we got invited to a party with the guys, Sarah wasn't going to attend which was a disappointment but Emma Caulfield was enough to keep me happy.
The night went well, plenty of drinks for all in a local studio bar, when out the blue Sarah showed up, she wore her blonde locks up in a bun and a frown on her face. The clothes she had on was casual, jeans with a black thick jumper, it turned out Freddie, Sarah's love of her life, had to bail out of their date because of a re-shoot on his latest movie. Sarah didn't say much to us, we were outsiders, but a few more JD and coke was making me braver and when she suddenly decided to leave, I followed. I don't think anyone noticed me leaving.
I caught up with Sarah and asked if she was all right, she tried to brush me off so I asked if I could escort her to wherever she was going, after much pressuring on my part she agreed. She needed to pick up something she left on set, a coat. She cleared me with security and we wandered on set.
I tried my best to make chit chat but she didn't seem to open up until I asked her about her future husband. She talked about him working on a big movie and the wedding plans but she seemed a little disappointed by the idea she was soon to be Mrs Freddie Prinze. She told me about how much she was in love with him but thought marriage to him might have been too hasty.
"It's just wedding day nerves." I said.
"The wedding is eight months away." She said with a smile.
"Well guess it's early then."
It was at this point she seemed to act little bit more comfortable with me, we picked up the coat on the set of willows bedroom and made our way back. When we passed through the street sets we had begun to talk about love and all things men/women. She asked me were I get ideas for our songs about love I said we don't sing love songs only ones about how crap life is. She saw the funny side but I wasn't joking.
At some point, in view of the exit, we stopped; the conversation was now about past girlfriends on my part and sex on her part. If I wasn't sobering up I would have sworn she was flirting with me and what I was about to do would have been blamed on my drunkenness (Only I wasn't that bad). I moved in suddenly and gave her a kiss on her lips; she wasn't expecting it at all hence why she moved back in horror. She was shocked; I was about to say something when a sharp slap connected with my face.
"What?! What are you doing?" she said in a raised voice.
