riverview | Why Should the Devil have all the Good Music?

(Joint post from Jace Wayland ~~Herondale, Lightwood, Whatever~~ and Alec Lightwood-Bane.)

[When the broadcast begins, the video pans across the interior of the LUX nightclub. The space is lit enough to show the details of the speakeasy inspired decor but dim enough to give the impression of what the club will be like when it's open.

Eventually the feed stops on a blond playing Fur Elise at a grand piano. Alec sets his phone down, bracing it so that it has a clear view and won't move. He sits down beside Jace. He waits a few beats before accompanying his parabatai. The two of them begin playing a ragtime version of the song, each player pausing at certain points and the other easily picking up the melody. When they're finished, Alec turns toward the camera.]

A few months ago, Magnus and I opened up the LUX building for renters. We've been working on opening the nightclub on the main and basement floors, and we almost have everything ready. We're planning to make the club like the apartments, welcoming to those who have felt that they're different. This will be a safe place to enjoy themselves. Mostly I was thinking that this would be a place for beings who are supernatural but it'll be open to anyone who is willing to follow the rules and not cause trouble.

LUX is going to be a music club, but right now, I have only two performers. If you're interested in playing at the club, please contact either Jace or me and we can discuss setting up an audition.

[As Alec mentions the Lux being a safe place, Jace begins playing C Jam Blues. He’s definitely showing off and enjoying the jazz piece immensely. Right up until he hears his name and then he stops and leans in closer to Alec, eyes on the phone.]

Bring your own sheet music. Diversity is important. If you don’t have any musical talent don’t call me. Unless you’re hot and looking for date. Or you have some other talent. Like bartending or waiting tables.

[Scowling at Jace, Alec elbows his parabatai in the ribs.] You’re not the only one who’ll be holding auditions. I’m the owner, remember?

[Jace smiled and rubbed at his ribs for a moment before beginning a new piece. Moonlight Sonata.] You’re the boss. I just toss drinks and rule breakers.

And play the piano. [Shaking his head, he looks more amused than annoyed by Jace’s comments.] If anyone wants to audition or interview, let us know.

(ooc: If you prefer either Jace or Alec to answer, note which one you want to answer in the subject line or in the tag.)

[ Yuri's lips are pursed as the video begins, and for whatever reason he looks less impressed than someone who might be suggesting or interested in a job. Truthfully, Yuri just has a bad case of resting bitch-face- but hey. ]

My boyfriend is really, really talented- he DJ's three clubs in town right now. I don't know that he would have time, per se, to do live shows for your club, but I'm sure he could hook you up with some equipment discounts and like, mixes for the interim when you don't have live stuff, you know?

[ Yuri shifts, resting the hand not holding his phone on his knee, and his chin on his hand. ]

And as for me- I've never bar-tendered before. [ Or had a job at all that wasn't ice skating, really. ] But how hard can waiting tables be? [ At this, he rolls his eyes. ]

[minsu hasn't seen that much of lux building. mostly just the inside of sage's room, especially since the sickness hit. but if minsu doesn't recognize the video, he definitely recognizes the names that are being tossed out, names casually mentioned by the swamp witch from time to time.

a music club - that's good, minsu should definitely be well by the time it opens. music and dancing and drinking are all enjoyable, but he has a question of his own:]

Will there be a menu or just drinks?

What kind of rules would there be?

Well, you already hired Jace. So there's bound to be trouble--soon or later.

:p

I'm the DJ who was mentioned by his boyfriend. Fiance.

[Well, if that username isn't a dead giveaway that she's 'different'...]

I can sing and at home I had a guitar.
