"Making it" is the best thing that can ever happen to a band, and Radical Words may have just "made it." But how did they get there?
Before they truly became Radical Words, Michael, Jared, Sarah, and Andrew were just four different people who liked music. To get to where they are, they had to work their way from the garage, through clubs, and learn how to be not just four friends who like music, but a band that can make it big. Their journey, not unlike others, was fraught with lost drumsticks, excessive feedback, and many, many broken guitar strings.

End Of Passion Play - {James Hetfield/Metallica}
James Hetfield and Sarah Hendricks, a dysfunctional couple who are too scared to say "I Love You", but confident enough to say "I Need You". **DISCLAIMER: THIS STORY IS THE SECOND PART TO MY ANOTHER ONE OF MY STORIES CALLED "TONIGHT ONLY" (there's also a third one after this one called "Let it be Done). This story would make more sense if you to read that one first, but that book is probably the weakest book of the trilogy, and you don't have to. I think this story is the best book of the trilogy; I'd say it's my best work.**Complete
