It was a normal in New York. It was 1998. Jazmin, Melady, Bobby, Jaydon, Dwayne, Aaron, Josephine, and Lula were going to see some upcoming band in a shitty venue.
"Jesus christ, this bloody sucks," Bobby complained, "I can't believe we have to spend our entire day at some fokin concert I don't wanna go to."
"Shut the fuck up, Bobby," Melady snapped, "I paid for your ticket. Be grateful."
Everyone else was pretty neutral about going. They all had pretty little goth fits on, and were ready to go. Lula drove everyone to the venue. It was fucking rad.
"I hope I get laid for god sake," Aaron said suddenly.
"Aaron, please don't. We're here to have a good time," Josephine said.
"I would've rather have gone to see New Order," Jazmin said.
"Guys, please stop being negative," Dwayne cried, "am I the only one that is excited as shit?"
"Yes," Lula said rolling her eyes.
Everyone took their place on the venue floor. It looked like the band was about to start playing. Dwayne let out a fangirl shriek while everyone covered their ears and told him to shut up.
"Its about to start you guys," Jaydon said suddenly as the stage lights dimmed and 4 dudes were on stage.
"Hello," a man with blonde hair said.
Jazmin was about to vomit from how attractive he was.
The band started playing and HOLY BALLS, they were good. Maybe it was the song called Roll Land or the one where he goes "she was a sex toy," but everyone loved it.
Everyone was bobbing their heads then the song stopped and it was dead silent.
The singer looked up from his guitar and smiled.
"This is Specialist." He spoke softly into the microphone.
The bass line started up and the singer opened his mouth.
"You make me lose my buttons oh yeah you make me spit
I don't like my clothes anymore"
The blonde haired singer kept looking back at the group, but he seemed to have his gaze stuck upon Jazmin.
"Circle around me now baby it'll be ok
Cause we all go downtown sometimes
Somehow baby we'll beat this mess
It's the time fuck the surface to meet the specialist"
"Those lyrics hit really hard." Jaydon said.
"Oh Jesus dear lord Christ I'm about to cry." Bobby snobbed, rubbing his eyes.
The stage lights were really bringing out the atmosphere in the music. It was absolutely stunning.
Melady was zoned out. Lula went and shook her but she wouldn't take her eyes off of the band.
"Hey! Watch were you're going!" Dwayne exclaimed at somebody shoving through the crowd.
"Oh shoot, sorry man. I need to get out of here." The porkishpineish faced man yelled as he ran.
A couple of other guys running past by knocked down Jazmin.
"Ugh! Hey man!" Jazmin practically screamed putting her hand up.
A black haired man pulled Jazmin up.
"Are you alright?" He asked.
"Yes, oh my god thank you! I was about to get stomped on." Jazmin dusted herself off.
"Yeah anytime! I- I'm Julian." He put his hand out.
Jazmin hesitantly shook his hand and smiled over politely.
"Hahahah yeah I'm Jazmin."
"So are you here to watch the bands play, or are you here to play?"
"Oh, I'm just watching with some of my friends."
"Oh, my band goes on next." Julian smiled.
"What are you called?"
"The Strokes." He awkwardly laughed.
"Hey, that sounds cool."
"Hey, can I see your cellphone?" Julian asked.
"Oh, um yeah, here." Jazmin handed him her phone.
Julian started typing in something. He gave her a look and handed it back to her.
