NotACleverPony used to be one of the most prominent brony musicians until one day he decided to just ‘end it all’. His departure left a gaping hole in pony music community, since nobody else could write dark and brooding songs about Princess Luna. However, PONY RUNOFF has heard from a reliable source that he might be back to perform one last time. As a hologram.

BroNYCon, which starts on June 30, is shaping up to be the biggest MLP fan convention yet. Of course the pony music scene will be well-represented with pony musicians of all genres and stripes swarming towards Manehattan like some sort of cacophonic Smooze. But apparently the convention organizers decided the show needed something special to truly ‘go viral’. And by ‘something special’, I mean a lifelike 3D visage of NotACleverPony, who is going to perform a previously unreleased composition “The New Lunar Republic Prevails”.

I’m glad to live in the 21st century where such AMAZING technology is possible. One question still remains though. Nobody has actually seen NotACleverPony in person, so how would we know it’s not just a hologram of some random guy from the street?

R u ‘totally stoked’ for BroNYCon?

Would a hologram of Swagberg b much more appropriate? (via him being a rapper, like 2pac)

Is BroNYCon getting too manestream with lame publicity stunts like this?

R u #TeamLuna or #TeamCelestia?

Hologram of PurpleTinker has declined to comment on this story.

Anybody who dares to explore the creative output of My Little Pony fandom eventually stumbles upon Friendship is Witchcraft by SherclopPones, which is some sort of video fanfic where all ponies are totally OOC. Friendship is Witchcraft became enormously popular after dark and corrupt #EqD overlord Sethisto openly embraced it and started heavily promoting it on his hell-spawn blog. Recently the 6th episode of the series, Lunar Slander was voted #1 pony video of March beating such masterpieces as… uh… Well, anyway, the fact that a ‘simple voiceover’ won over a bunch of fully original animations is testament to the intensity of Friendship is Witchcraft fanbase.

Not many people know that SherclopPones is actually a nom-de-plume for two different people. One of them is Jenny Nicholson, an OG MLP collector. The other is Griffinilla, who is some sort of half-sheep half-human hybrid who also moonlights as a DJ and chillwave pony music producer, which makes him highly relevant to PONY RUNOFF, I guess.

Anyway, the big news is that SherclopPones is going to BroNYcon, the biggest My Little Pony fan convention this summer. Other confirmed guests include Lauren Faust, John de Lancie, the guy who voices Snails, and Amy Keating Rogers (yes, you saw it here first!).

But it seems they need a little… pegassistance.

Jenny Nicholson, who enjoys her status as the #1 pegasister in the fandom, didn’t have much success booking a single room in New York City for a reasonable price. And due to shortage of female My Little Pony fans, she has trouble finding a roommate. So, if you’re a fellow pegasister BroNYcon goer, drop her a line.

Is the rent ‘too damn high’ in New York City? (via that crazy beard dude)

Do u think Friendship is Witchcraft is ‘funnie’?

Is SweetieBot your favorite character ever?

Why there are so few female fans of My Little Pony?
