Anjanette's knees were shaking. She could hear her 老友记 beside her, chatting in low tones, and beyond that, the crowd's cheers and the sounds of A Wave Tossed In the Ocean out on the stage, greeting their live audience. Henry, the band's manager, had arranged for a live chat with 粉丝 which would also be livestreamed on the group's social media channels, and they had announced their new 老友记 would make a special appearance. The band hadn't mentioned what the topic of this meeting would be yet, so that the 粉丝 wouldn't have a chance to convince themselves in advance that Les and Jimmy...

That evening, after Anjanette had finished volunteering at the rescue center for the day, A Wave Tossed in the Ocean invited her, Ferdinand, Tammy, and Becky to dinner. Les said, "I'm sure 你 know what this is about." Ferdinand said, "You mean the rumor that 你 and Jimmy are in 爱情 and getting married?" Jimmy said, "Yeah." Les said, "We were wondering if 你 could help us put an end to this rumor." Tammy said, "But we don't know how." Anjanette added, "It is a tall order." Jimmy said, "Hey, you're tall!" Everyone laughed. Becky said, "I know. Ferdinand and I are actually a couple." Ferdinand...

The fans' new theory of Les and Jimmy being in 爱情 quickly spread through social media channels, 音乐 lover's forums, and A Wave Tossed In the Ocean 粉丝 sites. But the band members themselves remained completely unaware of the rumours until a week 或者 so later, at a 问题 and 答案 press conference. The conference started out pretty normal for the four boys. Reporters crowded into the room all asking their 问题 at once, Charles was constantly smoothing his hair and trying to catch the attention of the many cameras, Felix was hanging back but answering every 问题 quite politely...

Not long after the conclusion of A Wave Tossed in the Ocean's first tour, Les and Jimmy decided to go play at the park with Venus and Mars. The two were having a blast when suddenly, Jimmy tripped and fell. Les was deeply concerned. He rushed to Jimmy's side and asked, "Jimmy, are 你 okay?" Jimmy was shaken up and could only reply, "I don't know!" Les asked, "Where does it hurt?" Jimmy said, "My knee." Les said, "Let me see it." Les examined Jimmy's hurt knee and said, "It's only a scratch. I think you're going to be okay." Les then gave Jimmy a hug, unaware that some 粉丝 were watching nearby....

Hi, everyone! Antonia here, and as most of 你 know, Paul and I, along with our families, moved to Colorado last week. We have been focused on settling in, so I'm going to discuss how we feel about it.

The air in Colorado is thin, so it took some getting used to. We got slightly sick from not being used to the thin air. Don't worry; it didn't last long. With plenty of rest and fluids, we were back to ourselves within twenty-four hours.

The neighborhood has a great view of the mountains. The Rockies remind me of the Great Smoky Mountains, but they're taller. To put this into perspective, the...

Anjanette and her 老友记 had a fabulous time at the A Wave Tossed In the Ocean concert. The tickets Henry had gotten for them were for the very front row. They were close enough to see the band members' faces, and they even saw Jimmy wink at them from his drum set.
A Wave Tossed In the Ocean played a mixture of sixties and seventies rock hits and their own original songs, these last mostly written 由 Les and Felix (they often announced who wrote the song they were playing or, in the case of covers, what made them decide to include it in their repertoire). The crowd danced and cheered and sang...

Blitz led Anjanette and her 老友记 and A Wave Tossed in the Ocean through many twists and turns. Les said, "Oh, my! How long did Venus chase that squirrel?!" Jimmy said, "I don't know. I hope we're close." Just then, Blitz made a sudden stop near a river. Jimmy said, "She must've gotten into the river." Felix then noticed a shape floating in the river. He said, "Look there!" Jimmy gasped. "Oh, my gosh! Venus!" Ferdinand pushed to the front and said, "I'll get her!" He plunged into the river to save her. He held onto her and got her to shore. Mars ran up to his companion. He began licking her,...

As Anjanette and her 老友记 hurried along towards the sound of the voices, she thought she could see the silhouettes of four men in the distance, and as they got closer, she couldn't help thinking they looked vaguely familiar. But she wasn't sure why she thought that until Tammy gave a loud squeal. "Oh my gosh! It's A Wave Tossed In the Ocean!!!"
Anjanette's eyes grew wide. It really was them... There was Les and Jimmy and Charles and Felix, walking along and calling for someone named Venus while Jimmy held the leash of another dog, a big but friendly-looking one who stopped at Tammy's voice...

When Anjanette came home, she decided to ask her uncle about 音乐会 tickets. She asked, "Uncle Bruce, can I ask 你 something?" He said, "Sure, Anjanette. Anything." She said, "You see, this new band I was talking about, A Wave Tossed in the Ocean, is coming into town soon for a concert. I know 你 说 money has been tight lately, but it would mean the world to me, especially since I'd get to go with my friends. Can I go, please?" He said, "Well, I'll look at the ticket prices first." He looked online. He said, "They do seem awfully expensive. I'm sorry, Anjanette." She sighed and said, "That's...

A few days later, Anjanette was walking her 狗 Misty and Blitz through the park, with Tammy keeping them company. It was a slow, peaceful day, with Misty and Blitz stopping constantly to sniff at things, and Tammy often taking the opportunities to pet them. Tammy always loved playing with other people's pets even though she still 说 she didn't think she was the right person to own one herself.
A voice called out to them, breaking the stillness, and the girls turned to see Ferdinand and Becky hurrying towards them.
"Girls!" cried Becky, before Ferdinand had 说 a word, "you'll never guess...

Anjanette and her 老友记 were hanging out at her house. They were having a sleepover. Ferdinand said, "You all should check out this new band. They're called A Wave Tossed in the Ocean." Tammy said, "That sounds interesting. Why did they call themselves that?" He said, "I'm not sure. Maybe they'll reveal that in their first interview." Becky said, "I like the name. It sounds very psychedelic." Anjanette said, "That's exactly what I was thinking." Becky said, "Good minds think alike." Ferdinand placed the record into the record player. It was a wonderful sound. Anjanette took a particular liking...

The older gentleman came into the room backstage. He gave a smile and said, "I enjoyed your performance tonight. It was very refreshing to hear the songs I grew up hearing. It's not very common to find young people interested in that type of music." Les said, "Thank you. Would 你 like an autograph?" The older man laughed. "No, actually, that's not why I'm here. Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Henry, and I've always wanted to manage a band. 你 are so good, 你 deserve to be playing 更多 than just clubs." Charles said, "You mean we should be playing in large venues like theaters?" Henry said,...

The 下一个 weekend, the boys were at their club again, but this time with a few differences. When the curtain opened, it was to reveal a band of four at their instruments, poised and confident and ready to play. And that wasn't the only new thing. During the week, Jimmy's dad had agreed to go get the front of his son's 低音 drum painted. The drum now proudly displayed the group's new name.
Les started them off with a riff, and the others followed right in, Charles and Felix keeping rhythm and sometimes playing off each other and doing something 更多 daring and fancy, Jimmy keeping time on his...

The 下一个 morning, Jimmy got a call from both Charles and Felix. He gave them directions to his 首页 so that they could have a 果酱 session. Jimmy went into the guest bedroom, where Les was sleeping. Jimmy shook Les at the shoulder and said, "Les! Wake up! Charles and Felix are going to be here soon." Les let out a groan. Jimmy said, "I know 你 don't want to wake up when you're sleeping good, but 你 want to be awake for a 果酱 session, don't you?" Les opened his eyes and got out of bed. After a quick breakfast, they heard the doorbell ring. Jimmy's mother answered the door. Charles and Felix...

Les and Jimmy were walking along the 海滩 talking about their performance and how well it had gone when they heard footsteps running up to them and turned to see two boys about their own age, one who looked a little older and one who looked a little younger.
"Great show, guys." The boy who looked older put out his hand and smiled. "We were in the audience. I'm Felix."
"I haven't seen an act this good in a while," the younger boy added. He, too, put out his hand, and shakes were exchanged all round. "I'm Charles - the 吉他 King," he added with a little grin. "And you're good enough to be another...
