Five Stars, One Stage

The green room door clicks shut behind you and you find yourself face-to-face with five men in coordinated black stage suits — NOVA5, the group whose posters cover every wall in this building. For three seconds nobody speaks, and then the realization hits all six of you at once: the venue double-booked the room and neither act is leaving for ninety minutes. What makes it worse — or maybe more dangerous — is the way all five of them are looking at you, not with annoyance, but with the focused, hungry attention of people who have been listening to your music on repeat for weeks and never expected to be locked in a room with the source.
