guitar music in the background Yooooo what are you doing all the way out here? Yeah, no, not too sure about your wallet but hey did you hear about my band’s concert next week? It will be our biggest event yet and I think this one is really it! It’s been publicized a lot and all the promotion and commercials have been all over the social medias. I really think this will be our big break, and I can finally quit my job at Goldman Sachs.

Oh, also, have you heard the new Rex Orange County album? You know, the guiTAR on that album is just so good and the chord progressions are something I’ve never even heard before! He’s so creative and honestly? a revolutionary of our time. Sometimes I wonder… if I grew up in a more creative environment or, like, my parents wanted me to pursue music, I could have made it big one day. I really wanted to go to music school and learn about production, but I got stuck in comp sci and programming because I thought I’d be able to transition out of it. But, like, I just lost the time to focus on music… like, my band in high school was really up and coming back then but it all kind of fell apart in college. This new band now—you know, Brian and Ryan and other Ryan?—we all meld so well together and I think we have something special!

Are you free next week for the concert? And if you want to get a sneak peek, you can buy our EP? I’ll even give you a discount! [pause] Oh right, no wallet, yeah... I’m not sure where it is. I know you were hanging with Anne last night, and I think she’s by the state house for a workshop or something. I really hope you find it, though! And if you ever want to hang out again, you know where to find me!! See you soon!! If I’m lucky….
