A cynical journalist tasked with writing a slam piece on 80?s cover bands struggles with her objectivity when she falls for the charismatic lead singer of an all-female cover band as she accompanies them during a contest to win the opening spot for a major rock band.

      What are the stakes if the lead character fails? Why Must the lead write the “Slam” piece?

      ?

      (I only say this because, writing a “Slam” piece before she has even interviewed the band isn’t very objected. It’s the exact opposite of objective. So there must be a different reason (other than objectivity) Why she must write the slam piece.)

    2. Singularity

      Why would the band let her follow them around if she’s writing a slam piece? Maybe she’s invited to tour with them and write an article after having written the slam piece. This is the follow-up article. Is her professional integrity on the line now? Will her fans still read her stuff (which is enjoyed for its cynical and scathing nature) if she starts back-tracking? That to me poses the interesting dilemma – is she actually less cynical or is the love she feels for the lead singer skewing her perspective?
