It wasn't supposed to work like this. Cora Shaw moved to Seattle to go to grad school and save the world, not fall headfirst into a music scene on the brink of explosion. A story of friendship, true love, false love, growth, consequences, and trees. So many trees.

Wait until the music's over is a story of love, secrets, regrets, what-ifs and of course... music! The story begins in 1990, when Angie Pacifico, a young film student, and wannabe screenwriter, moves from Idaho to the Emerald City. She meets a young woman, apparently very different from her, who turns her life around completely. Angie finds herself right in the middle of the newest, craziest, most interesting and most diverse music scene of the time. Her life intertwines on different levels with the story of various bands of the local grunge scene, with Pearl Jam being the main focus.

Remember to live. I've lost track of how many times I've repeated that mantra in my head. Over and over. Reminding myself to be present. Take a leap. Take a chance. We only get one life and no one makes it out alive.. If only I knew how true those words would come to be..

blah blah blah, another Frusciante fiction
