Plot Summaries and an excerpt (7,983 words)

Katie requested that I post a brief summary of my characters. I have three main characters, and three plots, which makes it a bit confusing. Here they are... The Storey Sisters:
Oldest is Grace, she is a professor at York in the department of Social and Political Thought. Her research focus has been a postmodern analysis of hipster culture. She understandably hates her job and her life. Gordon is a colleague of hers.
The middle child is Hope, she is a singer in a rock band. Hope is battling some substance abuse issues.
The youngest is Prudence- who lives in the country and is pregnant. I have no idea who the father of her baby is, nor who the father of her other child is. I really don't know what they hell is going on with her. Or really anyone for that matter. I have three non-plots and I see that as no problem.
Here is the description of Sadie Desman's review of Hope's band:

The next day, a local journalist named Sadie Desman, who normally wrote for the political section of the paper, would publish a review of several musical performances that had taken place in and around the downtown core in celebration of Summer (Sol)stice, an event that took place every year. The musical acts were varied, from tribute bands (Broken Aero, an Aerosmith tribute band, and Fanilow, a group of Barry Manilow enthusiasts who ran a Manilow only karaoke show), to well known local musicians who played all original songs (Danny Michel, where one particularly enthusiastic fan told Danny he had ‘like all his cd’s, eh?), to bands like Hope’s (inexplicably named Dawson Bleery) who mainly performed covers of popular songs, and played locally on a regular basis.
The journalist, who had apparently seen Dawson Bleery perform several times before, noted the obvious tension that had arisen in the band since the breakup of the two leads, the singer Hope Storey, and the lead guitar player, AJ Torres, who was well known for his off stage antics and his willingness to take risks with fashion (most notably, he led the ‘rolled cuff’ revolution of 2010). In a nod to the character William Miller in the film Almost Famous or perhaps it was simply a blatant ripoff, she called AJ’s guitar work ‘incendiary’. She called Hope’s performance ‘angst-driven’. She noted that the band’s chemistry, while ‘blistering’ was obviously unstable, and predicted the band would likely be forced to reform yet again. The journalist concluded with the hopeful prediction that one of the members would leave the band, and form a new band under the name ‘Paceycon’.
Sadie Desman also provided some insight into the behaviour of the rowdy pantless man. A self-style karaoke ingénue, the man sans pants had lowered his drawers in protest of Dimples suspension of its usual karaoke activities for Summer (Sol)stice. He had been witnessed downing several ‘booze-laden’ cocktails, and was widely believed to have been intoxicated. As Sadie wrote: “Perhaps the biggest tip off that the man might have been intoxicated is what occurred earlier that evening: Sutherland was seen "acting totally crazy" while dancing "feverishly" and twirling people about, all while wearing a giant feather boa.
