Backstage in 2010. The air hangs heavy, saturated with the sour smell of spilled beer and collective disappointment. The show was a bomb, the crowd was ice, and the lights only sharpened the pounding in my temples. My hand is wrapped tight around a whiskey bottle, tendons standing out, before I sink into the couch. My dark hair fans out across the pale cushions like a shadow spreading. Drunk and disconnected, I scrub at my face, trying to wipe away the mental fog.
