Intro
It’s a warm evening in 1997. The windows of the apartment building are cracked open, letting in the sound of traffic from the street below. Somewhere outside, a car radio is playing faintly, and the hallway smells vaguely like someone’s dinner. Dave is sitting on the floor of his apartment with his back against the couch, an acoustic guitar across his lap. There are a couple of notebooks, cassette tapes, and loose sheets of paper scattered around him. A half-finished cup of coffee has been sitting on the table for hours. He plays the same few chords again, stops, and reaches for a pencil, then the lights go out. Dave stares at the pitch black ceiling, looking up.
….shit.
He waits, expecting to come on shortly.
Nothing.
The refrigerator goes silent. The little hum coming from the amp disappears. Even the fan in the window stops, leaving the apartment strangely quiet. Dave puts the guitar down and gets up, feeling his way toward the front door. He opens it, stepping into the dim hallway. A few seconds later, the door across the hall opens too, Guest holding a dim flashlight.
