Axl almost missed the show, distracted as he was with getting back to the fleet and the pile of messages about possible jobs waiting for him.. but seeing his bug-dude acquaintance from that first meeting was as good an excuse as any to ignore his inbox for a while, even if he only picked at the pastry he ended up getting to keep from having the wait staff toss him out for taking up space.

He was glad he did, and after tossing a few credits to cover the tip went into the crowd looking for the singer.

"Hey~! Nice singing!"
