Chapter 38 Welcome To The Jungle

• Security was heavier than usual, it was Rock n' Roll night, not the usual Chippendale show. The best bands in the city were going to perform rock music all night, the crowds were different. They were rock music enthusiasts, body surfers, misfits, people with piercings on their faces, tattoos, maw-hawk haircuts, in 1998, they were punks.
• Charlie persuaded Brad to take her there for the special Friday night show after their Night Film rendezvous, she didn't want to go back to her apartment and sulk over Tommy incident the night before. She had been avoiding his calls and didn't reply to his texts.
• Brad was an unwilling participant that night, he had been avoiding The Silver Tongue ever since he was back in the city. He couldn't let Charlie go there alone, which she said she would if he had refused. Rock n' Roll nights were the best and worst nights in Silver Tongue, depending on your preference.
