Prologue
“Yep, can I help you?” I asked him. He smiled, shaking my hand and sitting back and looking at me.
“I’m Jake, I was wondering about the band life, and if it changes you. See, my band just got signed and we’re going to tour with Modern Day Escape and I See Stars and I don’t really know what to expect.” I nodded at him, getting comfortable and smirking.
“Listen, the band life may seem all fun and games, which I’m not saying it isn’t, but you need to be serious about it as well.” The boy nodded and I sighed. “Why don’t I tell you a story, this happened nine years ago, back when PTV barely started doing tours and whatnot.” The boy nodded and I smiled, ready to tell my story.
“As you may know, I also went by Mike Whiskey Hands, the biggest player from the band. I never settled down and I never wanted to settle down.

You grasp it and you enjoy it while you have it. Never let it go, even if it interferes with the band life.” The boy nodded and I smiled. “If someone told me this before the band life, I would have made different choices, but everything happens for a reason.” The boy stayed quiet listening to me.
“Let me tell you about this wonderful gift I got once, that crossed with both of my lives.” I began with my story
