Chapter 1 - Story

It was a warm summer evening. The Pop Punk guitarist was getting ready in the back of his stage before his big concert. He tuned up his guitar and cleaned it up from dust before giving it a nice shine. After reading some last minute notes on the setlist, he started walking towards the stage.

"Give it up for Julfish!" -Announcer

Julian ran out and started playing his songs from the set list.

"How are we doing tonight Toronto!?" -Julian

The noise and ruckus created quite the commotion. It was going to be a fun night for the people watching. He was alone on stage, but had speakers playing music to fill in the missing gaps of his band. As the song approached its end, he did some sick dance moves and concluded the song with a solo.

"Thank you all!" -Julian

Julian waited for the crowd to cheer and clap, only to hear nothing much. He was playing in an abandoned stage in the city with no one around. His girlfriend was the only one in the audience cheering him on.

"WOOoo! Good job!" -Winnie

Julian smiled and let out a small sigh. He got off the stage and started to pack up his gear into his car. Winnie came over to comfort him.

"It's ok babe, I think you did great!" -Winnie

"Thanks. It was a good practice but we'll need to show off to a larger crowd next time hopefully," -Julian

"Next time for sure. I can invite some friends I know," -Winnie

"Thanks. Love you," -Julian

He finished packing the rest of the gear and began driving off. On the highway, Julian could see other concerts and music festivals taking place in the city. He dreamed of hosting his own of the same calibur one day in the near future. Driving up north, they eventually reached home and moved in all the gear into the house. Julian turned on his computer and checked on his side business, before watching a video about Tyler Slewfoot, his inspiration for playing music.

"Music is a wonder really. Where words fail. Music speaks, and I mean loud. Me and my buddies have spent the last few years growing the hardcore scene in our town, and it's been going pretty well. Eventually, we'll be playing in larger places, maybe even out of the country. I hope to see all of you there," -Tyler

"Tyler, why are you so awesome," -Julian

Winnie came into the room to check on him.

"Are you talking to yourself again?" -Winnie

"HUh!? No honey I'm just watching one of the GOATS," -Julian

"Of course you are. Don't stay up too late you got work tomorrow," -Winnie

"I won't. Good night!" -Julian

"Good night," -Winnie

Julian kept playing the video, but without speaking out loud this time. He thought that there was something he could do to match Tyler's level and reach those concert dreams.

"Any secrets you have for your talent?" -Interviewer

"Many but, you always just need to play from your heart. The best music comes from there, and that changes people in a good way. A harmonic way," -Tyler

After letting the interview finish out, Julian scrolled on social media for a bit before going to bed.

The next day, Julian got up and commuted to work. Working at a business division for a well rated grocery store. His manager greeted him walking in.

"Morning Julian. Had a good night's sleep?" -Sam

"Hey Sam. I'm feeling pretty energized," -Julian

"Glad to hear that. I sent you an email regarding some numbers that we need sorted out. Hope you can get that done for us," -Sam

"I will get on it today," -Julian

He headed to his office space and grinded out the work, along with occasionally reading up on more Tyler Slewfoot content. His office space was decorated with posters and album covers from the band and singer. Eventually, Lunch time struck, when Julian went to get food from Wendy's. As he was eating, Julian read up on a small music festival Tyler Slewfoot was hosting on the upcoming weekend. He texted Winnie to see if she wanted to go with him, but she was going to be busy. Julian purchased a ticket for himself and went back to the office. He finished up the remainder of the work Sam left for him and then packed up his things to go back home and get on his computer to talk to his friend.

"Airic, answer the call, you there?" -Julian

"Yo," -Airic

"Airic, Tyler Slewfoot is coming back this weekend. Do you want to go with me!?" -Julian

"Uhhh. I'm down but I need to see if I'm free. Why don't you ask Winnie?" -Airic.

"She's busy," -Julian

"Alright. I will let you know by tomorrow," -Airic

The day of the concert arrived. Airic called Julian to let him know his response.

"I can go!" -Airic

"Thanks for the timely response. Your lucky I bought two tickets in advance already buddy," -Julian

Julian drove over to pick him up and the two travelled to the city to see the venue. It was much larger than he expected and had lots of people attending. Part of it made him question how he was able to secure two tickets in the first place. He parked the car and both of them walked inside the festival.

"This place is unreal," -Airic

"It's way better in person," -Julian

Airic ran off to check out some of the vendors. Julian did the same at some Tyler merchandise merchants. It was expensive, but he ended up purchasing a few t-shirts and a poster. Before the main event started, Julian made sure to meet up with Airic again. They got in in the main area and waited. The lights dimmed and Tyler ran out.

"How are we doing tonight Toronto!" -Tyler

The crowd went wild. Julian and Airic had to put on earplugs since it was so loud. They started playing through the songs in the setlist. Julian could only admire how well Tyler made his songs. Something felt different when Tyler played music compared to anyone else. It felt like it had more energy and heart put into it, and made people feel good listening. Halfway into the show, Tyler paused the songs in the setlist to talk to the audience.

"Are we still doing good y'all?" -Tyler

The audience replied energetically to confirm their excitement.

"Great. I just wanted to spend some time talking with you guys. Give a break from all the noise to relax our ears. Thank you again for coming out. The slewfoot band is so happy to be on stage once again," -Tyler

"I love you guys!" -Julian

"The glaze is real," -Airic

"We don't normally perform in such a large city, but we felt the time was right to expand past where we came from. We want to expand our scene here too. This genre is special and I wanted to share it with you guys. Not just metal music. I believe there is a special technique in music that no one else has used before. I've been using it tonight and it looks to be working," -Tyler

The crowd was curious as to what Tyler was talking about, but he kept it a secret and continued the concert with the remaining songs of the setlist.

On top of a nearby building, a masked figure was preparing a weapon and loading it up. It looked like a ray that fired powerful sonic waves. They jumped down right on top of the stage behind a sheet of metal to hide themselves. Before Tyler could start the final sign, the person cut the lights and caused an explosion from above, letting them drop down. The lights came back on, and they found themselves face to face with Tyler. Tyler mumbled something and turned his attention towards him.

"A surprise guest!" -Tyler

"Is this part of the show?" -Airic

"Tyler always knows what he's doing," -Julian

The person unleashed the weapon and fired waves at Tyler. Anywhere the waves went or touched completely muted sound in the area. Tyler made sure to dodge them all, and started playing his final song on the setlist. As he played, visual notes could be seen coming out of his guitar. The crowd cheered as they have never seen anything like this. Even Julian was shocked to see this new power. Tyler redirected the notes at the person and hit them hard, making them drop their weapon. He strummed some more to generate red notes and took them in, giving him strength. He used it to lift up the person and threw them far away from the festival.

"Thank you all for coming!" -Tyler

The music festival concluded as people were left generally satisfied with the performance.

"I cannot believe Tyler orchestrated a combat scene into the show. That was fucking awesome!" -Julian

"I really hope that was part of the show. The other guy didn't look like an actor," -Airic

"I think you worry too much," -Julian

Julian and Airic drove off in the night after a pretty fun watch at the music festival.

In the corner of a park, the masked figure got up, looking angry. He saw Tyler's crew drive off and decided to follow them. After grappling onto the top of their van and remaining hidden, the van stopped at their apartment complex.

"Great show Tyler!" -Drummer

"You guys did good. We should probably lay low for a while. I did not expect Hush to show up tonight," -Tyler

Before they could walk in the apartment, the person on top of the van jumped down to confront the band.

"I did not expect you to be such idiots," -Hush

Hush charged in with his weapon and started another brawl with the band, silencing their screams for help.

Julian went to work in a pretty good mood the next day. Even the workload was not enough to keep him down.

"How was that music festival of yours last night?" -Sam

"Awesome. I couldn't meet him directly but I hope so one day," -Julian

"Sounds nice. Make sure to hand in that report before you leave office today," -Sam

"Will do Sam," -Julian

Once the work day was done, Julian left the office and began driving home, making sure to update his girlfriend when he would be back.

"Hi honey. I'll be back in a few hours. Just want to pick up something from the grocery store and music store… Love you bye," -Julian

After visiting the grocery store, he drove to the music store and started looking for a nice guitar. As he went to play test one, he noticed something odd. The guitar was making no sound at all.

"Is something wrong with this guitar?" -Julian

He also noticed something was wrong about the whole store. All sounds made inside in general sounded quieter than usual. He was beginning to suspect that he was starting to go deaf. Before he could test another guitar, someone from the back of the store ran out a door fast and started looking for a place to hide. Julian could not believe it though. That man was none other than Tyler Slewfoot himself. Surprised and shocked, Julian ran up to him wanting to talk to him, but Tyler returned a scared look and took him and Julian into a practice room.

"Tyler! It is such an honor to meet you! What are you doing here?" -Julian

"Sh! Don't move a muscle," -Tyler

Julian was confused, but decided to stay quiet and hide against the wall. Hush walked in checking all of the corners where someone could hide. He was about to open the practice room, but heard a noise outside that grabbed his attention. When Tyler was sure Hush was gone, he let Julian know it was ok to talk again.

"I think we're good kid," -Tyler

"Tyler who is that guy?" -Julian

"Long story, look we gotta get you out of here. I can't have anyone else getting hurt," -Tyler

They walked out of the store as police came to check in on the area.

"Tyler, I'm a huge fan. If there's anything I can do I'd be happy to help," -Julian

He turned around to look at him.

"Sorry kid but this is some serious band beef I got going on," -Tyler

He ran off to his car. Julian threw a piece of paper with contact information at him.

"If you ever need me again I'm always ready!" -Julian

Tyler gave a look of acknowledgement before driving off. Julian went home and unpacked the groceries before sharing about what happened.

"Winnie it was fucking crazy. Tyler Slewfoot was at the music store when I went," -Julian

"Wow! What was he there for?" -Winnie

"To be honest I'm not sure. It was weird actually. The sound was non-existent in the store, and Tyler was being chased by someone. He said their name was Hush," -Julian

"Do you think he's ok?" -Winnie

"I offered to help him if he needed it but he didn't want anyone else to interfere. It's weird because at the music festival someone attacked him near the end of the show. I thought it was part of it but now I'm not so sure," -Julian

"Weird. Well good that he's trying to keep you safe. Let's just make dinner," -Winnie

Julian and Winnie made some mac and cheese and called it a night. Julian went to sleep soon after. He could only think about his encounter with Tyler and the man he attacked him. Why would someone attack the legendary Tyler Slewfoot anyways, he thought. Before Julian fell asleep. He heard a knock at his window. Frightened, Julian shined his phone light. It was Tyler, signaling him to open the front door. Eager, Julian put on his clothes and greeted him.

"You came!" -Julian

"Shh! We don't wanna wake up your family now do we," -Tyler

"Oh right, come on in," -Julian

Tyler walked in and noticed the leftover mac and cheese.

"Anyone having this?" -Tyler

"Uhhh. Not right now, it's free if you want it," -Julian

"Thanks dude. I'm so hungry I've been on the run for a while now. What's your name anyways?" -Tyler

"Julian. It's again an honor to meet you. I was at your music festival the other night," -Julian

"Always nice to meet a fan. I'm sure you saw that attack then. That was NOT part of the show let me tell you that," -Tyler

"What's going on then? Who is this guy?" -Julian

"Let's just say that is someone trying to get their revenge on me. He was part of the band before I kicked him out," -Tyler

"You mean the legendary Tie Domi!? He was your backup guitar player!" -Julian

"Indeed, but I wouldn't call him legendary any more. More like garbage," -Tyler

"So what happened?" -Julian

Tyler opened up his phone and showed Julian some research he was conducting.

"That night at the festival, I showed you the secret music technique I mentioned in the show. I'm one of the few artists who've been practicing it. The Harmonic Flow. When playing your music with the correct style and emotion, you can generate notes that appear next to you in colors," -Tyler

"That's what that was? I thought you guys had sick visual effects on stage. I know a guy, Dylan, who can produce stuff like that," -Tyler

"Nah, this is real. Red: Strength. Orange: Speed. Yellow: Focus. Green: Recovery. Blue: Peace, and my personal favorite, Purple: Hype. I was using the purple notes to create the crowd's energy," -Tyler

"This is so cool. Why doesn't everyone use it?" -Tyler

"The Harmonic Flow is only taught at a special hidden location for worthy musicians. In fact, only worthy musicians can master it right. My band members can, but Tie, Tie went on a different path. Unable to use it properly, he used the Harmonic Flow to play chaos. We had our arguments here and there, but I had enough one day and kicked him. Furious at how the Harmonic Flow treated him, he now seeks to destroy all practice of it, including my band," -Tyler

"That sounds serious," -Julian

"It's exactly why I didn't want to involve you in it. But my band members are all recovering in the hospital. If you really are who you want to be, then I know you would be able to help. I can give you a chance, only a chance," -Tyler

"I won't let you down king! But, how can I help?" -Julian

"Hush destroyed my capabilities of using the Harmonic Flow. I've lost it until Hush destroys his weapon that is containing it. We need to get you on the same page," -Tyler

"You mean, I can learn this special practice too!?" -Julian

"Yes, exactly that," -Tyler

"Sounds awesome. Where can we go?" -Julian

They walked outside to Tyler's car and drove off in the night. Julian felt a bit nervous about the plan in general, but he was hyped to get a chance to hang out with his idol.

Winnie woke up from the noise made in the night and saw a note left by Julian

"Winnie, Tyler came back! I'm going to go help him but don't worry. I'll be back in time for our movie night. Love you lots," -Julian

She sighed.

"At least you're not losing money. Stay safe," -Winnie

As the sun rose, Julian woke up in what looked like a whole different city. It was small but clean.

"Wow, where are we?" -Julian

"A nice hidden place off the map in the north side of the country. Welcome to Sonata," -Tyler

Tyler parked the car outside a house and knocked on the door. Someone opened up and immediately greeted the two of them.

"Thank you for taking us in Elysia," -Tyler

"It's always nice to see old students again. Who is this young one? Your new student?" -Elysia

"Sorta. We have a little problem," -Tyler

"Sure, explain it all while we have tea and cookies," -Elysia

Tyler explained the situation with Hush and his inability to use the Harmonic Flow.

"Hush sounds like he was able to unlock a dangerous part of the Harmonic Flow. It can hurt people and silence them. If his weapon really has the power to store it, he will come here to destroy it all if that is really his goal. The chaos will corrupt him," -Elysia

"We need to be able to get Julian up to speed on it. Can you help teach him?" -Tyler

"It would be my pleasure. You should take a break Tyler, you look exhausted really?" -Tyler

"Listen to her ok?" -Tyler

"Yes sir," -Julian

Tyler left the room to go restore his energy at a nearby cafe while Elysia got Julian started on some training.

"You brought your own instrument which is a good start. That is going to be your best friend for developing the Harmonic Flow. Try playing it for a bit," -Elysia

Julian started playing the same song from his concert that he hosted the week prior. It sounded good, but there were no signs of the Harmonic Flow forming.

"Your playing is good, but the Harmonic Flow requires something different. Watch me," -Elysia

Elysia picked up a trumpet of her own and started playing a song. She expressed it with a bunch of different moods and emotions and styles. Eventually, green notes came out of the trumpet. As they travelled towards Julian, he instantly felt refreshed.

"Wow, that felt nice," -Julian

"The green recovery notes can heal a person both mentally and physically. A vital part of the flow. From your playstyle I think you should try to aim for the strength notes. They show up red," -Elysia

Julian started to try playing again, really focusing on inner strength to deliver a powerful song. A few notes started to come out of his guitar.

"Woah! I've never seen that before. This is some magic shit for real!" -Julian

"Haha, you got a decent way to go. But you're learning fast. Keep at it," -Elysia

Julian kept playing his song. At some point he sped up, spewing out orange and red notes together. They went above him and formed a sheet of music.

"What's this?" -Julian

"When you aren't actively using the notes, they will store it above you. A secret study has theorized that a master of the Harmonic Flow can gather all 6 types of notes and combine them together to play out the full power of the Harmonic Flow at the same time. I've never seen it before though," -Elysia

"Sounds neat," -Julian

"That looks like a good start for today. You should get some rest. We can continue the practice all throughout the week. Does that work for you?" -Elysia

"I think I can. I'll just call my manager and girlfriend to let them know where I'll be," -Julian

He was able to get enough signal to barely send the messages, but unable to explain what he was going to be doing. After wrapping up his last song, he made it to the room where a nice bed was waiting for him.

The next day, Julian got up and walked over to the same cafe where Tyler was waiting for him.

"How was the first day son," -Tyler

"Good. We actually got some notes to play!" -Julian

"Oh really nice. It took me a while to get my first. Which colors did you get?" -Tyler

"Red and orange," -Julian

"Yeah it fits the whole metal pop punk style. But we're going to need to work on the other 4 as well. Hush can only be taken down with all 6," -Tyler

"You mean with quieter playstyles?" -Julian

"Not necessarily. You just need to play and feel for the other types. Peace is simple, you just need to be in a relaxive state. I'm sure the others you can figure out," -Tyler

"Well, I'm glad to be training alongside my favorite singer," -Julian

"You're a good kid. The fate of all music rests on you. No pressure," -Tyler

Julian left and returned to Elysia where they started another training session. He kept trying to get the other notes but struggled. With some more concentration, he was able to get yellow notes out. Another day passed by, and Julian played green notes after recovering more of his own energy with some G Fuel. As the week went on, Julian mastered the existing notes he could play and learned how to use their abilities to their full potential. Elysia even took him to a practice range, where Julian was able to learn how to use the Harmonic Flow to protect himself against threats like Hush. In limited numbers, he was able to play small amounts of chaos notes to attack the dummy models in the range.

"As long as you can control the 6 main notes of the Harmonic Flow, you can use the chaos without being corrupted," -Elysia

"Got it," -Julian

After leaving the range, Julian kept on working on getting the other two notes to come out. Sitting peacefully while playing a relaxing love song, Julian got blue notes out. Excited to see this, he played a more hyped up song and got purple too.

"Wow, you are a fast learner. Haven't seen someone play this nicely since Tyler's days in Sonata," -Elysia

"Does this mean I got it down?" -Julian

"Almost, we'll just need to work on your ability to switch between each note type quickly. That takes some time too," -Elysia

After one last practice session, Julian called it a day and returned to his room. He had almost a full week in Sonata and really felt like he had improved his musical talents. While reading a book, his phone rang. Airic had called him.

"Yo what's up? Sorry I haven't been in town recently," -Julian

"Where have you been, it's been complete chaos here," -Airic

"What do you mean? And why do you sound so quiet," -Julian

"Some guy has been going around looking for Tyler, and he's silencing anyone and every area in town. The police can't do anything about it. It's abysmal," -Airic

"Oh dear. This may sound hard to believe but I'm working with Tyler to fix that mess soon," -Julian

"You're trolling," -Airic

Julian walked downstairs and handed Tyler the phone on speaker.

"Tyler Slewfoot here, how can I help you?" -Tyler

"Ok that's crazy brother what the fuck," -Airic

"Told you so," -Julian

"Hush is going around ruining the city. I can't let him do that to our music scene," -Tyler

After hanging up the call, Tyler went on live on his instagram to send a message to everyone who followed him.

"Tie, if you're seeing this. Keep the battle between you and me. I'm standing in the location where we were taught how to play. Come here and we can settle this, but know that I'm not alone," -Tyler

He finished up the livestream.

"You just declared war on him," -Julian

"We can take him. You're ready," -Tyler

"Are you sure? I only just learned all 6 notes today," -Julian

"I've talked to a lot of fans and none ever connected to me. But you, I felt your passion for music. I'm glad that I picked you to help me out. And it shows, you were able to get a good grip on the flow faster than I expected. Get some sleep. We'll have to deal with Hush in the morning," -Tyler

Julian thanked him and went to bed. He hoped that tomorrow would go well.

The next day, Julian, Tyler, and Elysia met up outside the front gates of Sonata to confront Hush. He walked over slowly with a menacing appearance.

"You know this is a mistake, Tie. Walk away and hand over the weapon," -Elysia

"The Harmonic Flow failed me. And now, it will fail you," -Hush

He began walking over to the gates

"He's not stopping," -Julian

"Same with us," -Tyler

The three of them charged forwards and played chaos and strength notes to push Hush back. He absorbed the notes with his weapon and fired them right back at Tyler. Elysia went in to deliver some physical hits but was pushed back by the sonic waves. Julian's turn to strike came up. He played a combination of the 6 notes together and spammed them at Hush repeatedly. He looked like he was going to give up, but Hush played a giant chaos note to send Julian to the back end of the city. With Tyler and Elysia down, Hush walked in and began to silence every part of the city to destroy the Harmonic Flow. Its power slowly weakened among its citizens. Hush walked towards the centre of town and began firing sonic waves inside the ground to ensure the silence was delivered throughout the entire city.

Julian got up and ran back to the city as fast as he could. He noticed Hush breaking the ground and tried to stop him, but his attempts proved unsuccessful.

"How come you chose to follow this man. A man who betrayed his own friend," -Hush

"You were a legend Tie. The best guitarist in the band. But then you went on the wrong path," -Julian

"The Harmonic Flow didn't want to work with me, and Tyler kicked me out just because of that. What kind of leader does that to his own people," -Hush

"That sucks, but the path you chose is no better," -Julian

"He chose the wrong path too," -Hush

"It's not too late to stop. Maybe he can work something out with you," -Julian

Hush stopped to think about it for a bit, but did not end up reconsidering.

"No," -Hush

He blasted Julian away back towards the main gate. Tyler and Elysia walked up to pick him up.

"Are you hurt? Are you good?" -Tyler

"Yeah, yeah I'm fine," -Julian

"He's going to drain out the Harmonic Flow if he continues to send the waves. We need to do something fast," -Elysia

"We can't take him down. He's too strong," -Tyler

"We need to work together. If one of us can distract him, the others can go in for his weapon," -Julian

The three of them agreed on a plan and went for it. Julian played a song to get some strength notes in so that Tyler could grab onto Hush and try to take him down. Elysia made a run for the weapon, but the sonic waves kept pushing her back. Julian also went to help Tyler beat Hush, but his combat skills were much more advanced for the two to take him on. Elysia went in for him too but was knocked back into the training range. Tyler got back up, but was pinned down by another powerful sonic sensor and covered in rocks. Julian tried the same thing but only got pinned down too with his guitar on his lap.

"You guys cannot see. If the Harmonic Flow is biased, it will only cause more harm. I am here to stop its injustice," -Hush

Hush started walking back towards the silencer. Julian tried to get up and use his guitar but the waves were still too strong. Before rocks could stack on Tyler, he made one final comment to Julian

"I don't use my instrument to control the flow boy! I use my HEArt…" -Tyler

Julian looked at him and looked back at his guitar. He gathered all the strength he had and played tunes inside his mind, thinking about all the good times he had while playing his guitar. Slowly, the Harmonic flow started to form strength notes and got him out of the waves. He picked up his guitar and played his favorite song and mixed in all sorts of emotions to create all 6 notes and had them sit above his head. As the song reached a climax, the notes combined together and enhanced his guitar. Elysia got out of the range to witness a miracle.

"The secret practice is true!" -Elysia

Hush looked back and saw a rejuvenated Julian ready to fight. He was walking towards him with full musical force.

"You shouldn't have hurt my GOAT," -Julian

Julian soared towards Hush and bashed him towards the buildings and threw him on the ground. Now hovering in the air, he played a full scale of notes towards Hush to beat him down. Hush got back up ready to punch back. Both sides dodged some attacks. The commotion destroyed the sonic waves keeping Tyler down and he got up.

"That's my guy!" -Tyler

More music notes came up from under the ground to help Julian in the fight. Using the extra power, Julian pinned Hush against a wall and delivered powerful punches until he was knocked out. As the sonic waves kept growing, he flew up higher into the sky with the notes and dove right into the weapon, breaking it to pieces and releasing all the Harmonic Flow that it was storing. Tyler regained his power. The city back at his home regained it's sound back

"Good shit Julian," -Airic

Julian hovered back down to the ground slowly as the chaos turned into quiet. The people of the city of Sonata came out of hiding to celebrate Julian.

"Thank you guys!" -Julian

He met up with Tyler and Elysia.

"You did the practice. That was amazing," -Elysia

"I'm so darn proud of you," -Tyler

"Thanks. I couldn't have done it without either of you," -Julian

"Looks like you're the new master of the Harmonic Flow. That's something to be happy about," -Elysia

"Winnie and the others are not going to believe what happened. It's gonna be hard sharing this information with the others," -Julian

"I think I can help with that," -Tyler

A week later, Tyler hosted another music festival. This time, Julian was the opener.

"Give it up for Julfish!" -Announcer

Julian ran out on stage and played the Harmonic Flow with his setlist. The crowd and sounds were real this time. Julian had all the attention he was dreaming of.

"That's my boyfriend!" -Winnie

"That's MY GOAT!" -Airic

Halfway into the song, Tyler and the rest of the Slewfoot band joined in. It was a dream come true for Julian to play with the band, let alone friending them too. Once the setlist reached its final song, Julian unleashed the Harmonic Flow's full power again, flew up in the middle of the crowd and fired notes as fireworks to conclude the festival.

"Thank you Toronto! Good night!" -Julian
