It was one of those old bars where the scene is ripped jeans and theories and blank stares filled with meaning. The dope could be found in the back alley with the cigarettes and the grumpy people puffing under the rain. The drinks could be found just about everywhere. Musicians always find themselves brave enough to get up on the little block and sing a couple of tunes that nobody listening likes but they always clap over their moaning and they always come back to listen to the next guy with a good couple of rhythms and some time. A country girl who liked Bach walked in one day and immediately ordered some water because she had been walking around the town all day and had gotten lost. The bartender hit on her then gave her some water. She turned away from him as she gulped down her drink and immediately fell in love with a dark haired fellow standing in the corner with a harmonica. She tried her best to stare him down and get his attention but he was too busy practicing and talking to the drunks sitting next to him. When he went up on the stage he tapped his foot and whistled out a couple of tunes that didn’t mesh well with the volume of the microphone and sure enough, as always, the crowd turned on him and got chatty with every new note punched out. The girl found herself less attracted to him after he insisted on doing a fourth song. When that was all over he smiled and left the stage, walking over to the bar and sitting down right next to the country girl who had decided only a moment earlier that it was a good time to order a whiskey. The fellow immediately fell in love with the girl as she pounded down a glass of Jack and chatted up the old bartender. He got a drink himself and stared her down, hoping she would turn his way and start up a conversation or share a shot. She was too busy laughing and writing down directions to somewhere. He wanted to go there with her. She left moments later, back into the town that had kept her a secret from him for so long. A different girl came up and flirted with him after that, but it wasn’t the same.
