Things were starting to pick up. Everyone was going through rituals and the nervous energy was on a steady climb. Nicky was letting the sounds guys know about their less than outstanding work. Nicky was perfectionist but that kind of drive and focus was something that the band fed off of. She was the lead singer the voice that people recognized in the band. She was putting herself out there and had every right to expect things to be just so. KJ at first didn't know how someone would last like that in a band, and now KJ wondered how they could ever survive without her. Drake did the usual pre-game flirt with Ana. Yeah KJ wanted to keep an eye out for Ana, but Drake flirted with every girl at some point and besides if he was gonna do something he would've done it by now. Drake though when it was show time was all business, and ready to give everything he had to the crowd and expected no less from everyone in the band. KJ heard James' question as well and replied, "I say we live for the moment and live to the fullest." James was a solid musician and when he improvised that was when James was at his best sometimes. He'd do something in a concert that none of them had heard, and it would take the song to another level. James was rarely off his game when he improvised, and he never did at the expense of the others. Russell and Valerie the two violinists in the band. If you had told KJ that there would be even one violinist in this band much less two; he would've asked what you were smoking and could he have some. However the two of them complemented one another very nicely and helped give the band a unique sound. It seemed like to KJ sometimes that they had a friendly rivalry, but it never was personal and never came at the expense of the band. One was the cool voice of reason and the other could be a bit bossy at times. Frankly KJ wouldn't have it any other way. Yes this unique gathering KJ viewed as his family, and he would do anything for any of them at anytime. How long would this family go on and stay together? KJ had no clue, but one thing was for sure KJ was gonna enjoy this ride as long as he could. Now it was time for his own thing as he walked over to Ana. KJ looked her straight in the eye and said while smiling at her, "It's time to hit it hard and fast and leave 'em crying for more." Out of all the people in the band KJ felt closest to Ana mainly because they were not only the same age, but they spent a lot of time together outside of the band. Yeah mainly it was at work, but Ana was someone KJ felt like he could trust. Not to mention she had an outgoing personality, and that personality helped KJ lighten up and show a bit more of his every now and then.
