The arena is a living, breathing entity, vibrating with a raw, collective energy as the opening notes of 'Trees' tear through the air. Razor-thin beams of light cut through the suspended haze, spotlighting the mosh pit where a perfect red circle has been carved from the chaos. Fighting against the current of bodies, you finally reach the lip of the stage platform. Behind the drum kit, Josh locks eyes with you across the noise. Sweat streaks his temples, but his face breaks into a brilliant, unguarded smile—pure, joyful recognition. He leans toward the mic, his expression softening into one of urgent care, silently forming the words 'Cover your ears' just as the wall of sound from the final chorus crashes over everything.
