Masterpiece (Bocaj Hero III)

Lost of progress with this over at FoF-FF, in terms of storyline. Quoting from there some of the key posts (and a summary of some of the less key, but still potentially important ones):

[HA69 and Delainfr willing to chart drums]

[NatchIsSoup willing to help with storyline]

[Ideas for names which ended with Masterpiece as a temporary title]

[SF saying he could work on a theme]

[Me revealing the possible original storyline]

[Desuvk willing to chart drums and saying Space Oddity would fit the space tier]

And then the storyline started to evolve...

Yeah, I was wondering whether to have the first episode be your band doing band-like stuff and then the "different world" is some sort of fantasy world that they end up in or to just start it off in the fantasy world. To be honest, the "band doing band-like stuff" was just an excuse to have some kind of space-themed tier with some spacey-sounding music. But then it gets a bit confusing and complicated later on if I go with the first option I said.

...it looks like that WIP setlist on your forums [this forum] probably won't be anywhere near the final version.

And probably the most influential stuff on the final thing:

What I'm thinking for a storyline is, for the first episode, is basically, the main dude learns to play guitar, then joins a band, and they gradually rise through the ranks, going from small pub gigs, to stadiums, to headlining festivals. Eventually, they end up playing a gig in some sort of giant space-satellite-type thing, and then some sort of disaster happens (maybe a meteor hits it or something) and it falls down to Earth, or something along those lines. And then the second episode starts with him waking in some sort of "different world" (which would also make a certain Iron Maiden song perfect for starting episode 2, or 2 songs if Brave New World has a title track). That's the basic plot of the beginning that I've thought out.

WHAT?

AYREON NAO

Just looked 'em up on wikipedia, and wow, they sound pretty awesome. I saw that they have loads of my fave singers as guests on songs (Bruce Dickinson, Fabio Lione, Fish, James LaBrie, Mikael Akerfeldt, Russell Allen). I'll have to listen to 'em at some point, especially the songs with LaBrie and Lione. And the storyline of their albums sounds pretty cool too.

Edit: Hmm, maybe I could attempt some sort of double-storyline, kinda like in Onimusha 3 ,I think it was, where there's the "past" storyline and the "present" storyline, except mine would be, like, a "fantasy" storyline and a "sci-fi" storyline. I guess I'd have to find a way to make them fit together. (Hmm, why was Onimusha the first example I thought of when there's Warhammer/40k?)

And that's a summary of how it's been going on FoF-FF.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOH. Awesome.

Hmm, said this on FoF-FF, so thought I'd say it here: Anyone wanna join the "official" "team"?

I DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Theme for me.

K, will add you to the list.

Tus.

Update: (Because I don't do them enough)

Basically, to sum it up, the Sci-Fi part is kinda in turmoil and might be dropped unless Slashfan, who I gave control of it to, can manage to make it link to the fantasy one in some way or another. Aaaaaaaand, I've finished the fantasy storyline+setlist and have started charting songs.

Also, 2 songs which I've (intentionally or accidentally) spoilered elsewhere:
Emperor - The Loss And Curse Of Reverence
Rhapsody Of Fire - Tornado

And I've charted 4/120 songs so far.
