I turn to face the backing band behind me and I ask them "Are you guys familiar with Paranoid by Black Sabbath?" The drummer yelled back "Fuck Yeah Brother, I died in Nam!" The drummer then started clicking his drum sticks and then I started playing the guitar for the all so familiar song causing the crowd to cheer as we began to play.

"Finished with my woman 'cause
She couldn't help me with my mind


People think I'm insane because
I am frowning all the time


All day long I think of things
But nothing seems to satisfy
Think I'll lose my mind
If I don't find something to pacify


Can you help me
Occupy my brain?
Oh yeah


I need someone to show me
The things in life that I can't find


I can't see the things that make
True happiness, I must be blind


Make a joke and I will sigh
And you will laugh and I will cry


Happiness I cannot feel
And love to me is so unreal

And so as you hear these words
Telling you now of my state
I tell you to enjoy life
I wish I could but it's too late"


As the band and I finished of the song the crowd cheered and I bowed. I then grabbed hold of the Microphone and said "Who wants more?" The crowd broke out into cheers and wooing, I then said "I take that as a yes!" I then went towards the backing band and asked them "Do you boys know Joker and the thief?" One of the band members said " Yeah we know it" I them walked back to the microphone took a deep breath and then began to play.

"I said the joker is a wanted man
He makes his way all across the land
See him sifting through the sand
So I'll tell you all the story
About the joker and the thief in the night


He's always laughing in the midst of power
Always living in the final hour
There is always sweet and sour
So we are not going home


Can you see the joker flying over
As she's standing in the field of clover?
Watching out everyday
I wonder what would happen if he took her away


What you see, well, you might not know
You get the feelin', comin' after the glow
The vagabond is moving slow
So I'll tell you all the story
About the joker and the thief in the night


All the people that you see in the night
Hold their dreams up to the light
The wild beast is searching for sight
And we are not going home


Can you see the joker flying over
As she's standing in the field of clover?
Watching out everyday
I wonder what would happen if he took her away


I said the joker is a wanted man
He makes his way all across the land
See him sifting through the sand
So I'll tell you all the story
About the joker and the thief


I said I'll tell you all the story
About the the joker and the thief
I said, I'll tell you the story
About the joker and the thief in the night"


As we finished up I was handed a rag to wipe the sweat from my forehead and I thanked everyone and then walked off stage where Loona jumped into my arms and screamed excitedly into my face "Holy shit babe that was awesome! You're trending...again!" I went wide eyed and said "Oh no" Loona realized what she had just told me and she went wide eyed and said "Oh fuck now I realize and oh boy, this will be interesting" Another band then walked passed us and one of the band members said "Mate you rocked!" I thanked them and then Loona and I sat back down the booth and then we ordered some drinks. 

I got a local ale and Loona got a  non alcoholic cocktail, we then heard a commotion followed by cheers that were by the entrance to the VIP sector. We then saw John Lennon walk towards us and then sat down in our booth. We looked at him gob smacked and then John asked "So how have you two been?" I replied "John we haven't seen you since you helped us at the hotel, before I answer how have you been?" "John replied "Just been dealing with some old memories. I saw over the internet that you decided to play again and so I thought that I would come down to see you two, so now that I told you how I've been how about you tell me about you two?"

I looked at Loona happily and then turned to John and said "Well first off one big thing has happened" John raised an eyebrow and asked "Oh and what would that be?" "I replied "Loona's pregnant" Johns face lit up and a open mouth smile appeared on his face and then John placed a hand on my shoulder and said "Congratulations my boy! And to you two Loona dear. When did you two find out?" I replied "A few days ago actually. Loona felt sick out of nowhere and we didn't know why. The only thing that made sense was if Loona was pregnant". Loona added "Or friend Millie handed us a pregnancy test just to be sure and sure enough I am".  John asked "SO you're only a few days into the preagnacy?" Loona replied "Yep" John looked down at Loona's paw and saw the brown bottle and then back at her and asked " Thats not alcohol is it?" I replied "I know what you're thinking and no it's not it's a non alcoholic beer, Loona didn't want to feel left out with everyone else drinking".

The band that was playing had just finished there set and came off and backstage with to the VIP section, John turned around and smiled and then turned back to me and raised and eyebrow and said "Hey Carter what do you say that you and I do a duet?" My eyes widened and I felt a smile plaster my face and I said "John I would love nothing more than to duet with you on stage".
