It was Tuesday and after class and Max saw Dylan so he approached him and decided to talk to him

"Hey Dylan" Max said as he approached Dylan

"Oh hey Max how did auditions go" asked Dylan

"Horrible we didn't make the cut well what do you expect from Bethany and her posse fuck them " Max said "now I have a question and I'm going to cut to the chase can me and Josh join your band"

"Sure that makes us a full band" Dylan said

"Full band? But that's only three guys"Max said confused

"Five actually Jake's in the band" Dylan said

"Jake Smith is in the band cool but who's the singer" asked Max

"Alex Coleman he's badass" Dylan said

"Cool Bethany's ex boyfriend I can tolerate him and his family" Max said

"See you at 6pm at Jake's basement and the band is complete"Dylan said

"See ya there" Max said as he fist bumped Dylan

At 6pm at Jake's basement the boys were ready

Max and Josh came down to the basement and met Alex

"Hey Alex I'm Max Taylor the bassist" Max said

"And I'm Josh Taylor the drummer" Josh said

"Nice to meet you"said Alex as he shook their hands

The boys set up the equipment

"Alright which song are we going to do" Alex said

"Know by System of a Down" Jake said

"Alright 1 2 3 4 go" Josh said as he tapped his drumsticks

Josh does a drum intro to start off
Jake and Dylan joins in on guitars while Max joins on bass

Alex started singing

Cursed earth
Cursed earth
Cursed earth
Cursed earth

Dylan does a guitar solo then the rest of the band goes into the first verse

I will never feed off the evergreen luster of your heart
All because we all live in the valley of the walls
When they speak we can peak from the windows of their mouths
To see the land the women chant as they fly up to the sun

You never think you know why
Know you never think you know why
Know ever think you know why
Don't know don't

Jake was impressed by Alex's guttural voice

Books all say different things while people flap their yellow wings
Trying to soar being a whore of life and almost everything
Sheep that ran off from the herd maybe dead
Now's a bird able to fly able to die able to fuck your mother's earth

You never think you know why
Know you never think you know why
Know ever think you know why

As it cools down Josh does a drum solo

On the other side on the other side

Max was impressed by Alex's singing

The other side

Do you ever try to fly do you ever try to fly

Have you ever wanted to die have you ever wanted to die

Don't ever try to fly don't ever try to fly
Don't ever try to fly unless you leave your body on the other side
Never try to die did you ever try to die

Know you never think you know why
Know you never think you know why
Know you never think you know why
Know ever think you know why know

End of song

Alex was out of breath and so was josh

"Dude your singing is amazing" Max said

"Thanks" Alex said shyly

"Dude I think we got a solid band" Jake said

"Hell yeah" Alex said

They continue to play songs from other bands until they were tired

The band was now complete but they felt like they needed a sixth member
