It’s a music thing. It’s a boy thing. It’s the best thing.
Astlebury Music Festival is going to be the party of the year—a weekend of loud music, dancing, crowd-surfing, staying up all night, not to mention meeting about a million totally lush festival-going boys.
Too bad Ronnie, Fleur, and Claude, collectively known as the LBD, or Les Bambinos Dangereuses, are banned from going by their fun-hating ogre parents. (It’s far too dangerous, what with all those hairy lads sniffing about. And while you’re at it, go put on a bigger t-shirt!)
But in true LBD spirit, the girls come up with a brilliant solution: staging a music festival of their own, featuring the finest talent (and hottest lads) that Blackwell School has to offer. But organizing a music festival is no easy feat. Massaging egos, scrounging up funding, and keeping an eye out for a certain roadie’s bum crack are just some of the obstacles the LBD will have to overcome.
Join Ronnie, Claude, and Fleur as they march their way through life with sass, class, and a megadose of cheeky humor.
