Who: Students, Faculty, and a large chunk of New York.
What: Dazzler! Live in concert
Where: Central Park's Summer Stage
When: June 25th starting at 6PM
Warnings: Some people just don't like good music.
 
The Show: 
It was about an hour before Dazzler was supposed to hit stage when the bus rolled up from Xavier's. Student and teachers alike made their way into the large grass expanse in front of the stage already beginning to fill with regular folks sitting in lawn chairs, relaxing on blankets, or just milling about getting ready for the act. Their is an air of excitement all throughout, everyone is social, and everyone is there ready for a good time whether they are mutant or human. Dotted throughout the expanse is a large amount of vendor booths, selling everything from t-shirts to food and beyond.
 
Once the concert starts I hope you like rocking. The music is blaring (or should I say Blairing) loudly through speakers interspersed throughout the park. The crowd has pushed forward leaving a much larger expanse of open space for those who just want to sit in the ground and relax taking it all in. The crowd going wild for every song and the incredible stage theatrics that go on in a Dazzler show. Costume changes galore from roller disco to her more contemporary punkish look she's exploding on stage, the light show getting more and more dazzling as the night wears on.
 
[[During the show you might run into random NPC Concert goers wanting to share a love of music]]


The Afterparty:
After the show is done the field begins clearing out, the booths start to be taken down and the fun moves to the long building behind the stage.  Inside there is a large table covered in snacks and a full open bar for the adults with plenty of alternative beverage choices for the kids. Throughout the night a small staff will be maneuvering through the crowds with drinks and snacks as well, making sure everyone is happy and if they aren't standing at the bar, are still able to get what they want.
 
After about a half an hour Allison Blaire, all cleaned up comes walking out of the dressing room, cleaned up and relaxed and ready to meet her fans. She'll be milling about, chatting while signing autographs and generally being a large presence in the room interacting with the new students and teachers and hoping she was able to provide some levity after recent events.
