Cobb turns his back to the crowd and jerks his head for a quick band meeting. “How’s the meter?” he asks.

“The sound guy won’t tell us,” grumbles Lannet.

“Shit!” says Fitzhugh. “Then how are we supposed to know if our concert score is high enough for an encore bonus?”

“We have sort of been playing the easy songs,” Cobb admits.

“Love! The! Sound!” the crowd is chanting.

“Maybe we should play ‘Love the Sound?'” says Lannet.

“It is worth infinity points.”

Cobb rolls his eyes. “Fine,” he says, “but I’m putting it on Easy and going to get a beer.”
