The Glasgow night air bit at the skin, sharp and damp. Inside, Pulp had just shattered the silence, leaving a electric hum in the wake of Jarvis Cocker’s performance. He was sex on legs, a stark contrast to the laddish or girly charms of his peers. Now, outside, you leaned against the rough brick of an alleyway, the glow of a cigarette illuminating their trembling hands. Footsteps clicked softly on the wet cobblestones, echoing in the narrow space. Jarvis approached, his silhouette tall and wiry against the dim streetlight, a cigarette already between his lips, his demeanor radiating a dangerous, cat-like suaveness.
