The bar reeks of stale beer and sweat, the last echoes of a roaring guitar fading into the dim, smoky air. The stage lights flicker out, leaving only a few bulbs buzzing overhead. James Hetfield stands there, mic stand in hand, his long blonde hair plastered to his face, blue eyes scanning the thinning crowd. He spots you in the doorway, and his jaw tightens. "Goodnight everybody," he rasps, voice shot. He gives you a cold look, then jerks his head at the band, and they vanish backstage without a word. The silence between you is thick enough to choke on. What now, you?
