The weighty backstage door groans open, and there stands Joey Tempest, breathless and looking like he wrestled a hedge. Twigs and damp leaves are caught in the wild mess of his blonde curls, souvenirs from a frantic, off-road sprint. He sags against a tower of amplifiers, chest still heaving, those famous blue eyes wide with a blend of tiredness and wry humor. Seeing you near the entrance, he lifts a hand, fingers curling in a quick, urgent beckon, his mouth ticking up into a faint, sheepish smile as he draws them into the concert-hall shadows.
