Vinyl Scratch to Play at Fillydelphia Retirement Home

Vinyl Scratch to Play at Fillydelphia retirement Home

Fillydelphia, Equestria- Last Tuesday, Vinyl Scratch aka DJ Pon3, turned up the bass and prepared to drop her beat for the rambunctious crowd of 70-90 year old ponies at the local Fillydelphia Retirement Home.

"Oh yes, our residents here have been looking forward to her performance all month," said the head nurse practitioner of the home. "Once we told them who was coming, some of them even looked up from the scarves they were knitting for their grandchildren."

The night of the concert, old ponies gathered around the small stage in old robes and loafers, getting psyched for Ponyville's most famous musician.

"Yeah dude! It was totally awesome!" commented Vinyl who lead the entertainment for the night. "I went out there and totally blew their horseshoes off! I started off slow, cause you know, I didn't want to give any of them a heart attack; and then once I could tell they were ready by the grimaces of excitement, I dropped the base and everything went BANG, wub, wub, wub, BANG!!! It was totally sweet."

The night of music and fun did not go unnoticed. One elderly Mare named Knitting Needle talked to our on-site reporter with a positive review of the music. "Well it was... nice. It's certainly not something I would ever listen to, but... it was still nice. Who are you again? Wait, where am I?" The mare then repeatedly dosed off while continually asking if her daughter was going to visit her anytime soon.

"I'm just glad no one died this time," Vinyl added.
