The story of the night

Three Mikes stumble into the room carrying acid jazz like a fever dream they all caught at once—saxophone cutting through bass like a knife through warm butter, drums skittering sideways. Behind a curtain, enormous puppet hands emerge from the dark, moving with the weight of something that learned to grieve. The air gets thick fast: one side smells like spilled drinks and inspired accident, the other like felt soaked in dread. By the third song, the crowd stops moving. Chaos meets liturgy; the room holds its breath.
