The lights were intoxicating, the smell addicting, the taste of the air was like a drug. My fingers harshly strummed each string, Marcos hitting the drums as hard as he could, Patty on the keyboard completely aroused in the music. We were artists, one person at the complete capacity of 4, the fourth, Michael was singing. He was screaming the lyrics.
"No I won't go fuck with your ego!" We all started singing now. The air was hot and sweat dripped off our foreheads, the room smelled of iron. The music controlled us, even if it was only for a few minutes. One song could get us higher than the clouds. We were a band, a group, a family, we could sing in sync without realizing it.
The music cut, all that was left was the sound of all of us panting heavily. Patty broke the silence, "one more?" Michael shook his head, "not today, we've been at it for hours, we still have one more day until our concert." Yes, Michael, he was our leader, the big brother of us. Michael was the one who got us all together, we would sing songs from our favorite bands. Then there's Marcos, he's like the middle aged brother. He always knows what to say whenever things get rough between us. Patty the younger sister, she kept everyone happy, she knew jokes that would never get old.
All of us would do anything for Patty, we loved her. Then there's me, I don't have much about me minus the fact I can pay for the group. Get us food, anything to keep each other safe. I keep way too much to myself though, I just don't want the gang worrying about me. Marcos popped the bubble gum he had as he got off his drum set, "we heading home now Mickie?"
Michael wiped the last of the sweat off of his forehead, he threw the rag somewhere out of sight. "Yeah, go ahead and pack up though." Mickie was Marcos' favorite little nickname to call Michael, he saw it as a taunt since Michael was always super serious. Michael was 27, Marcos 25, Patty 19, and I was around 20. Sure I was close to being the youngest but I sure acted more mature than Marcos.
On Thursday we had a concert we all chose songs we loved to perform. I chose 4 Good Reasons by Solence and I Hate Myself, She Hates the World, We Wanna Die by Twin Pumpkin. Patty chose The Cult of Dionysus by The Orion Experience and Good L_ck by Celldweller. Marcos picked Do I Wanna Know? By Arctic Monkeys and Bloodshot by Sam Tinnesz. And Michael only picked one sing, we all knew he related to it.
He chose a song called Breaking my Bones by Friday Pilots Club...
