Hence, the original Plursdayfest was born.

The boys began a rigorous string of rehearsals, crafting precise choreography that no one expected.

“Last year, the bar was at zero. They didn’t think we would have anything,” Adelman says. “We did.”

Though none of the boys had actual experience in dancing, nothing could stop them from carefully scrutinizing their favorite pop videos, taking each move and it making it their own.

According to Adelman, the crucial ingredient to their package is a mix of sex appeal, crafty dance moves and lip-syncing.

“That’s the novelty,” he said. “Boy bands don’t sing.”

Singing or not, the group left its first Pfoho audience begging for more, until they were purchased again in this year’s auction—by Chang’s blocking group, for $110.

“We bought them for their bodies,” Rebecca C. Stump ’04, who helped finance the purchase, said. “My biggest regret in life is missing last year’s show. To make up for it, I’ve become an obsessive groupie and haven’t looked back since.”

Seeking to live up to the previous years’ glory, PLUR and their buyers launched a large-scale poster campaign involving such enticing slogans as “Blow Jobbins, I’m legal” and t-shirts with the boys’ facebook pictures.

Last night’s performance was opened by two Harvard cheerleaders and an A&E Biography-inspired video—hosted by Pfoho Resident Tutor Rick Bell and featuring a cameo by Annenberg icon Domna Antoniou.

After the video, PLUR launched into nearly-perfect renditions of *NSync’s “It’s Gonna Be Me” and “Bye Bye Bye,” which, according to Jobbins, is the song that made PLUR “famous.”

After the first half of the set, a video paying homage to and chronicling the humorous search for a replacement for departed member Kisch played, after which PLUR returned to the stage for an rendition of Boyz II Men’s “I’ll Make Love to You.”

To create a target for their affections, PLUR enlisted the aid of Mike S. Goggin ’04, who danced with the boys in full drag. Part of the choreography involved the boys sailing Goggin around the stage and then dropping him during the lyrics, “I will not let you go ‘till you tell me to.”

The boys closed the set with a artistically ambitious interpretation of DJ Funk’s “Ass and Titties,” for which Kisch joined them for a reunion. During one part of the verse, White leap-frogged over his suggestively hunched bandmates.

After the show, the crowd left with a new inspiration.
