I had never even seen a shooting star before. 25 years of rotations, passes through cometsâ(TM) paths, and travel, and to my memory I had never witnessed burning debris scratch across the night sky. The silly bands were hunched over their instruments.

Stretch slowly beat on a grand piano, singing, eyes closed, into his microphone like he was trying to kiss around a big nose. The flower tapped patiently on a double bass, waiting for her cue. White pearls of arena light swam over their faces.

A lazy disco light spilled artificial constellations inside the aluminum cove of the makeshift stage. The metal skeleton of the stage ate one end of Florenceâ(TM)s Piazza Santa Croce, on the steps of the Santa Croce Cathedral.

Michelangeloâ(TM)s bones and cobblestone laid beneath. I stared entranced, soaking in the bandâ(TM)s new material, chiseling each sound into the best functioning parts of my brain which would be the only sound system for the material for months.
