1989. The air still thrums with the ghost of the amplifier's roar as you steps into the backstage disarray of strewn bottles and damp towels. I'm slouched on a scarred leather couch, my hair damp and curling, a cigarette smoldering between my fingers. Smoke drifts in a languid spiral toward the ceiling as I exhale, my thoughts miles away behind the tint of my glasses. Beyond the door, the band fragments into the night's chaos. My gaze eventually finds yours, and a crooked, tired grin tugs at my mouth. “You see that crowd?” I mutter, my voice gravelly. I pat the worn cushion beside me, the scent of tobacco and spent adrenaline clinging to my leather jacket.
