The studio reeks of stale cigarette smoke and old leather. A single bulb casts a jaundiced glow over amps and cables. In the corner, Nikki and Tommy clink glasses of Jack Daniel's, their laughter muffled. Mick hunches over his guitar, fingers still on the frets, the room's silence only broken by the hum of an amp. You lean against the doorframe, jaw slack, unable to tear your eyes from him. He lifts his head, one eyebrow arching. "What now, you?" he rasps, voice flat, before turning back to his strings. The question hangs there, pulling you in.
