| Atticus's Attic First & Secondhand Music Shop Explore the music, both magic and mundane, and maybe create some of your own. Who knows what new sounds you might find? |
05-22-2016, 11:11 PM
| | Band Merchandise Set along the back wall of the shop and pressing up against the door to the recording booth is an area devoted specifically to displaying the various band merch offered up for sale. The wall is lined completely with tee shirts, stacks of which can be found in cube shelving beneath along with an assortment of band-related hoodies, all charmed to look to the Muggle eye as if they bear the logos of popular Muggle bands instead of Wizarding ones. A few tables bear a hodge-podge of items to be browsed: band logo jewelery and keychains take up almost one in its entirety, heavily laden displays marked with band names for easy searching. The next is covered in sturdy white cardboard boxes filled with music-related magazines, each labeled on the front with the magazine's name. Thumbing through them, you'll find the newest issues nearest the front, and older issues toward the back. Continue further and you'll find more things that might catch your interest - binders full of old concert tickets, stickers, guitar picks bearing group names, banners, posters, and scrolls can all be found, if you look hard enough.
Atticus has taken care to organise the area to make finding what you're looking for as easy as possible, and precautions have been taken to make sure it stays that way. Should you change your mind about any item and set it down, you'll find that after a short time it will make its way back to where it belongs all on its own. Nonetheless, please do try not to make a mess, or you might find a slightly irritated magazine batting you on the back of the hand - all of its own accord, of course. |

Seeing a small child staring at some posters, she stood next to him, copying his stance for a moment before speaking. "They'd look pretty good on the ceiling of the Hogwarts dormitories, I reckon." She wondered then if there was one with Marchand's band in it, but then again, did he even play with a band or was he soloist? Perhaps he had an album here she could check out... he was her Charms teacher for two years and she felt like she barely knew him. But then again, she barely knew most of her teachers, except what they taught and their names. Théo almost jumped a mile high when the girl magically appeared next to him and suddenly started talking to him. He thought he was alone in this spot but nope no he wasn't. Not even close. "I think a quidditch poster would look cooler. But these wouldn't be thaat bad i guess"
He did not even know half the bands on these posters. Shows how much about bands he knows.

He was busy trying to figure other things out to listen to music.
Today though he was going to go in and see what it was all about. Looking around the shop he didn't even know the first thing to look for. Maybe he'd find something his mom listened to just to get brownie points. He'd need them after what hew as planning on doing to Miranda. If he had his mother on his side maybe he wouldn't get into trouble as much as he would most likely be getting into. Natalie was still wandering away from her parents and her brother. They were around somewhere, but she still wanted to explore. Seeing this shop, Natalie pushed the door open and went inside. It was... loud. And busy and there was a lot of... stuff.
Still, she pressed on and found a lot of merchandise for a lot of music that she had never heard of. Natalie's music knowledge was rather limited, since her mother only listened to a small selection of it. So all this made no sense to her.
Well, her curiosity was satisfied, and she'd probably never come back here. Nat turned to leave, and bumped right into a boy in the area that she hadn't even seen before. "Oops. Sorry." |

Sky really had to work on not sneaking up on people, even if it did have its perks sometimes. But she smiled though at the kid's next comment because even though she didn't know him, the fact that he endorsed a quidditch poster just raised him up like ten points in her books. "You could say that again, although, it probably depends on what team you rooting for?" Also, that meant the kid was old enough to go to Hogwarts, but probably only a first or second year, she'd reckon. "So you attend Hogwarts then? What house you in, by the way?" Unless of course he was a first year and didn't know, but he knew about quidditch, so that meant he knew something in regards to magic related stuff.

Eddie might be quiet, but he was observant so when the person bumped into him he knew exactly who she was. Maybe not her name as much, but he knew her. "Hey" He gave her his nicest smile and his tone was very welcoming. "Aren't you a Slytherin, your brother is my dormmate." Ha! He knew this already, once the conversation had hit in their room about sisters he made it a point to go looking and finding out who this sister was, plus being in the same year helped because of classes.
He looked back at the music stuff before looking at her. "Find anything interesting in here?" His eyes finding the Werewolfsnout poster, "I might see if my dad will take me to their concert this summer." Thankfully he had seen on the poster they had a tour date, because he would have been lying if he hadn't. He wanted it to seem he knew what he was talking about though. Strike up a conversation and get in good with Liam's sister.
Liam would love that, HA!

Well that made everything since he could talk about that and not music. Since well it was not something he was good at talking about. "Oh im a Magpies fan" He said smiling. Was it that obvious he went to Hogwarts. Well besides him looking like he had to go to school and all.
Okay, it was pretty obvious. He nodded and he might as well add his house. "Gryffindor. You?"
Oh wait he forgot to say his name.

Oh wait he forgot to say his name. Magpies... of course he was a Magpies fan. Everyone loved the Magpies. They were like the kings and queens of quidditch. Royalty practically. Sky had to fight the urge to roll her eyes. "Ah, I'm more of a Harpies fan... women power and all. I'd love to play for them one day" But unless she made England's team or Hogwarts got quidditch back, that dream was probably unlikely, sadly.
Gryffindor. Magpies fan. They were like opposites. "I'm a Slytherin. I'll be starting my fourth year, so guess that puts me right smack in the middle of my Hogwarts education." Which was definitely that weird, awkward year, if she thought about it. "I'm Skylar, by the way."

Which was definitely that weird, awkward year, if she thought about it. "I'm Skylar, by the way." Ooo the Harpies were good too. No idea about the women power thing but it was a team only of women. Which was interesting. Playing professionally would be the coolest thing ever. "I wouldn't mind any team. Just playing pro would be the coolest thing ever. Especially if you can play the position you want" It really would. Well, he wasn't sure she was from Hogwarts. But now it was pretty obvious. Even before she said it. He never saw her before. "Fourth Year. I would have thought that was forever away last year. I'm a second year. I'm Théo. So Harpies. They are cool. I like Selina Skylar"
She was awesome.

Like she knew she could kill it at being a beater, but then there was something glorious about being a seeker too. "Fourth year was forever away, but like now that I'm here, it's like ... how did that happen? The years really do just fly by," and he was a second year, as she figured he was younger than her, but wasn't sure how much. "Selina is a killer beater. It's kinda cool how her surname is my first name. But it's Korrina's seeking skills that have me awestruck." One day maybe she could be half the seeker Korrina was? "Selina was a Gryffindor though, you know?"

Natalie looked up at the stuff on the walls and all the merchandise hanging up. "Ummm... not really. I don't know any of this stuff," she admitted. She had come here out of curiosity and now.. she wasn't curious anymore. This wasn't her type of shop. "What kind of music do they play?" she asked. She had been to a couple concerts with her family, but they had been orchestras. This didn't seem like an orchestra kind of shop. |

She had been to a couple concerts with her family, but they had been orchestras. This didn't seem like an orchestra kind of shop. So it was her he kept his smile. Yes, Liam, he knew the sister now for sure. "Not sure we ever really officially got to meet. I'm Eddie, but they all call me Blaze." His eyes moved around to see if Liam was actually there. Wouldn't that be fun? Moving his hand over the albums he looked at some of the titles. "Oh? What kind of music do you listen to?" His mother liked classical and his cousin liked country, so he kind of knew a little of things, but only a little. "Are you here alone or is your brother with you?" He knew his own sister was in DA somewhere, but where he didn't really care to know. She was probably with her puffer friends or that boy she seemed to not be able to get over.
Looking at the poster again he tried to determine what they played, "Wrock, got a few hits." He hoped they did if she went to her research. "I think it'd be a cool concert though. My dad is pretty cool about letting me go." His dad wasn't even in the country at the moment so yeah he wasn't sure if his mother would let him if it got to the point of he needed to go to prove he did.

But he might have already known that considering he knew she was Liam's brother. Now she wondered if Liam talked about her in the boys' dorm...
Music, music. "My mom listens to classical music... and some Irish band." Natalie toyed with a lock of hair while she spoke. That was really all the music that played in their house. And for the most part, she didn't mind it, but she was starting to realize that a lot of the kids at school listened to much different music than her.
She wasn't about to research it, though. She didn't listen to a lot of music, so she didn't feel the need to find more to listen to. Wrock concert, hmm. "Huh. That's cool, I guess." Natalie's eyes wandered around the shop. Music wasn't really her cup of tea, so she didn't know what else to look at... or talk about... |

But I feel I need to get good at one position first before worrying about others"
Whoa. He had not even realized Selina's last name was the same as her first name. That was cool. He thought Korrina was alright. Just an alright Seeker. He thought his cousin was better. "She is alright and i knew that. I think i read it in a quidditch magazine."
Skylar and Skylar. Still cool

Skylar and Skylar. Still cool It seemed as though Théo was still trying to sort out this quidditch thing and working through his strengths, judging from his comment. Skylar smiled in concurrence, however, "True. Mastery of one position should definitely come first, but once you get the basics down, I don't think mastering more than one would be difficult." Flying itself and steering clear of obstacles was probably one of the hardest parts. "What position do you like so far?"
Korrina only alright!? That response just warranted a questioning look from Skylar, but she didn't really press into it too much. "Love the quidditch magazines and reading where professionals came from .... kinda gives hope that they started out just like us, you know?"

Music, music. "My mom listens to classical music... and some Irish band." Natalie toyed with a lock of hair while she spoke. That was really all the music that played in their house.

Natalie's eyes wandered around the shop. Music wasn't really her cup of tea, so she didn't know what else to look at... or talk about... Why did they call him Blaze? He couldn't help but chuckle a bit, "I don't know really. We were in the dorm and they started using my last name and it stuck. My full name is Edward Jay Blaze Jr."
Should he have given out his full name? That was probably the worst thing he could have done in his uncle's eyes. Good thing the man wasn't anywhere around nor was any of this cousins to tell on him. "My uncle likes classical music it's usually in his office if I'm ever over there with my dad." He had heard some of it, but it was quite boring to him. If it didn't have words then it was just something to fall asleep to in Eddie's eyes. He looked around the shop to see if anything jumped out that could be classical for her, but he didn't see anything right away. "Do you go to special shops for that type of music?" He really wasn't that sure. "Are you ready to go back to school?" He sure in the hell wasn't, but at the same time, he was getting super bored at home and here every day. There wasn't much to do after your first or second visit. "You should go to one sometime. I think you might like it." Well that's what he was supposed to say, right? Maybe she'd hate it since it was not classical though.

"Seeker than Chaser after that. Just like the rush. You have a position you like?" Also, his friend liked playing Seeker as well. So it was fun. What was that look? Oh, right it was her favorite team.
Oh well. "Oh i already know that. My cousin is the Seeker for the Arrows and is awesome. So i want to be better than him. But its cool seeing how many of them have gone to Hogwarts. Just like us"
He already knew it would be hard. But he was not going to give up.

He already knew it would be hard. But he was not going to give up. Ah, another seeker. Glancing at him up and down a moment, Skylar couldn't deny that he had the right build for seeking, but of course that didn't make a great seeker. But there was definitely no denying that he was a Gryffindor what with 'liking the rush'. As far as what position she liked, well, that was complicated. "Well, I like beater, but I'm kind of barred from playing. So seeker is my favorite, because there's something glorious about the feeling of catching the snitch." It tapped into the 'want to the best' side, or something.
Ah, so seeking ran in this kid's blood? If Hogwarts ever got quidditch back, that meant there was a chance she could be seeking against him. "Yea, even cooler when they went to Hogwarts since the Quidditch ban, because it gives hope that just because we don't have quidditch, we could still play pro."
Also, speaking of Hogwarts, she really needed to try to find Marchand's album, or just skip this and move on to a different shop, because as interesting as it was to talk to Théo, it wasn't very productive. That and they could technically be accused of loitering if they didn't make a purchase soon.

Should he have given out his full name? That was probably the worst thing he could have done in his uncle's eyes. Good thing the man wasn't anywhere around nor was any of this cousins to tell on him. "My uncle likes classical music it's usually in his office if I'm ever over there with my dad." He had heard some of it, but it was quite boring to him. If it didn't have words then it was just something to fall asleep to in Eddie's eyes. He looked around the shop to see if anything jumped out that could be classical for her, but he didn't see anything right away. "Do you go to special shops for that type of music?" He really wasn't that sure. "Are you ready to go back to school?" He sure in the hell wasn't, but at the same time, he was getting super bored at home and here every day. There wasn't much to do after your first or second visit. "You should go to one sometime. I think you might like it." Well that's what he was supposed to say, right? Maybe she'd hate it since it was not classical though. Oh, Blaze was his last name. Huh. She couldn't imagine anyone calling her by her last name. Especially since it was her brother's last name too... Strange. "I guess I'll call you Blaze then." Since that was a thing.
Natalie nodded politely, her hands clasped behind her back while she listened to the boy. She honestly didn't know much about music, just that that was what her mum liked. Did they go to special shops for that kind of music? Natalie shrugged. "I dunno. I don't think so. She already has a bunch." So she probably didn't need to buy more. She didn't even know where her mum got it in the first place. Grandma, maybe?
Now, onto the topic of school. Natalie seemed a bit more excited about this topic than music. "Yeah, I'm almost done with all my shopping," she said with a little smile. "I'll miss the sun though. I like that about summer." She liked the beach and the pool and the warm weather. Pretty soon she'd have to wear sweaters and scarves and winter boots again.
As for concerts... she probably wouldn't go to one. At least not the ones that Blaze was talking about. |

| Mj :) • HuffleStud • Knight of The Zodiac • Manly Beard-Grower • Cicatrice de Harry • Kirk quite liked how his summer was going. Sure, he babysat alot but it had its perks with buying himself stuff other than school books. He thought about what else he needed.. His family already got a good load of his own things which led to his venturing into the music shop.... Huh.. He could do with a few more records but those bags and tees with 'The Odd Brothers' and 'The Dead Kneazles' sure was tempting.
So with that Kirk went through some of the items, flipping through the moving posters until something caught his eye. |

So with that Kirk went through some of the items, flipping through the moving posters until something caught his eye. Since his cousin owned the music shop, Levi had come to be a little possessive of it. He thought of it as his own in a way and came to visit it often, pretty much any time he came to Diagon Alley. Besides it being a really cool place, sometimes he got away with a discount or advance knowledge of special offers.
He wasn't looking for anything specific when he came in today, but he did head straight towards the band merchandise section. He had heard that a shipment of vintage band t-shirts would be coming in soon and he wanted to see if there was anything good. But before he got to the t-shirts, a familiar face caught his eye. "Kirk, hey! How's it going?" he grinned as he fell into place next to him. Always cool to see a friend when hanging out at Diagon Alley.

Kirk went through a few posters, he was pleasantly surprised at some of the cartoon figures on some. He had forgotten that they also had muggle stuff and went back to checking the t-shirts when he heard a familiar voice.
"Hey Leev." Kirk grinned back before giving him a bro-fist to bump. "How've you been? Your summer going alright?" It had been too long. Seeing him reminded Kirk that he had a connection with the owner. "You're updating your collection too, right?" Super cool. |

Seeing him reminded Kirk that he had a connection with the owner. "You're updating your collection too, right?" Super cool. Levi ever so casually returned the bro fist and bumped Kirk's with his own. "Summer's good.. it's good.." he nodded as he stepped a little closer to the T-shirts. "Spending time with my girlfriend, hanging out with friends.." He might have exaggerated that last part just a little bit as he hadn't seen as much of his friends as he'd like, but he didn't have to admit that. "My little brother's going to be starting Hogwarts this year too." So that meant doing some extra shopping with Cian too. "How's your summer been?" "Oh, I dunno.. I just came in more to look. I heard there was going to be a new shipment of vintage shirts coming in this week.." But so far he didn't really see what he was looking for. Not that he knew exactly what he was looking for. But maybe the shipment hadn't come in yet.

| Shanners Puff by day, snake by night | Mj's bestie | Always UP to Something... Music was fun and Zita decided to go into the music shop to check things out. Her eyes were all over the place with all the things posted around. Bands she'd never heard of and ones she really loved had posters on the wall, shirts, hats, scarves, and even shoes with the logos on them. What was she really looking for was the question though?
Zita moved through the area and found a little section of shirts, she wanted something fun and exciting, but not with a band name. All music stores had the shirts that had music things without being band specific and she figured this place would be just like it.
Flip, flip, flip, she would find something in this stack of shirts. I heart music,
music life with a brain, nope just none of these was what she was looking for.

| Sarah thinks I'm cute | Shan's safe space. Meandering along the Alley got boring after a while, especially when everyone was doing the same thing. Of course, he was supposed to be keeping an eye out on his younger siblings, but they knew where to find him if they needed him.
And they also knew not to need him.
So, instead, Corbin made his way up to Atticus', and after a while browsing through the music tables for some interesting new records - now tucked under his arm - he turned to the merchandise table. A new t-shirt couldn't hurt. As he looked through them, his mind drifted to whether one day, he'd see his name on one of them.

It was great to finally be able to relax and not have to worry about her exams. Or at least until she started stressing about her results. But she was trying to enjoy summer so far. She'd had a nice time in Paris with her boyfriend, and now was doing some shopping. She had some spare money, so she was going to get some new art supplies. As she was wondering down the alley, she decided to head into the music shop. She fancied some new music to listen too.
She smiled though, getting detoured from what she was doing when she noticed a familiar person. "Should have known I'd find you here" The blonde teased as she came to stand next to Corbin.

Imagining his own face emblazoned on a t-shirt, and hoards of people clamouring for one, didn't last very long, as Corbin was pulled out of his imagination by the sound of a familiar voice. Luckily, it was a good kind of familiar, and as he turned towards Hattie his lips spread into a wide, lopsided grin, and he draped an arm around her shoulders.
"Hats," the greeting came as he pulled her close in a half hug. "Where else would I be when I have new uniform to buy?" Because it was certainly not going to be in Malkins, even if he had grown a couple of inches. "How's your summer going?"
