  1. Friday July 15 It's time for the show at Garson's. I've been nervous all day, not because of the show of course. I'm on another plane when I'm on stage. Ant and I agreed to tell the rest of band about us. I've been going back and forth in my mind, if it's a good idea or not. I called Ant again about an hour ago, he's still sure we should do it. I really hope none of them have a problem with it. We finish the first set and head to the storeroom for our break. I've been off a little bit
  2. @Hero, I understand your point. My idea of fiction is it doesn't have to be believable, and actually it's better if it isn't. One of my pet peeves is when people review a movie, comments like 'they didn't use yellow stripes on their uniforms in 19xx' or 'those two roads don't intersect' or anything that is real but has no impact on the story. I try to add a few real references so people can follow, like Middletown, Red Bank, Atlantic Highlands all actually exist, but there's no Garson's Hideout. If Garson's Hideout is believable since it doesn't exist, why can't anything else? Perfectly understand what you are saying though. @Tris, eyes on your own paper, how did you get a look at Chapter 3? 😁
  3. Tuesday June 21 Monday's practice went well. We were all a little anxious about Keith's review. Rich, our resident pessimist wondered if he was just buttering us up to get our permission to write the review, not that he really needed it, and was going to skewer us in print. Keith did say our crowd size would change, not specifically grow. So that hid any anxiousness between Ant and me. I picked up Cathy at 4:00 so we could head to Garson's, get a couple copies of the paper, then go som
  4. My idea of the Romanos, Hero, is of a traditional, Italian Catholic family. Old traditions important to them. Mostly. Being dated is kind of intentional. I don’t know why I picked exactly 1988 for the timeframe, but I used the old fashioned, less modern world so I could avoid cell phones, the internet, etc. Dan, you’ll have to wait a bit on getting clear on RB. But some details are on their way.
  5. Thanks Tris (Hero and Dan too). No specific Ant spoilers, but I believe you’ll like Ant’s role in the next chapter.
  6. Thanks for the feedback so far. It’s always hard to know that just because I like my stories, will anyone else?
  7. Why is that when things are going well, something really awful happens? Or maybe it's better to ask why when things are going well, do I make an awful decision? As the song goes, please allow me to introduce myself. I'm Peter Daggett. I usually go by Pete, except for when mom is mad at me, then it's Peter Terrance Daggett. If anyone else is mad at me, it'll be dickhead, asshole, or if they're really mad, fucking asshole. That last is the latest I've heard. Eddie Nash, co-leader of the band
  8. A budding singer joins a band and discovers his sexual orientation isn't what he thought it was.
