White voids and Black Coffee

[Ian Sylvester]

what? no reply on the music emanating from him?

"I'm as beat as you, but this place sure seems keen." I said, still taking in the various types of people and creatures around. "hey you look like an old hat bluenose, if you don't mind me sayin'." I was sizing him up, he seemed like the big six, but he was just as in awe as me. "your duds look hand made, did you make them yourself or are they queer?."

still playing the same song
