As commented in the title a story to my taste which means there must be a story not just a vehicle for sex. This is a nice story with some dirction and messages. Well done on the drug thing, I too have seen them do too much damage. I like the love bit as well it really adds spice to the erotic pieces.
Again, well done,.
This was a great story. The sex was almost incidental to the story and to the building of the relationship between the characters - that's a good thing. The sex was used to enhance the relationship, not to overpower the story. Well-written.
I enjoyed the personalization of celebrity. It seems as if our society puts celebrities in an ivory tower and we forget that they are just people.
Keep up the good work - the honesty is very refreshing.
Very nice story. Even though it was at times predictable, there were still a couple of twists. Your story reminded of the C&W song, "She Couldn't Change Me" by Montgomery Gentry.
good story but i kept waiting for the other shoe to drop. most for the drug users i know, who went thru rehab, rehab didn't take the first time thru. i thought he would find her with drugs again, or that the concert life style and the fans would ruin them. and they would either rebuild, or have nice memories.....but it didn't.
but it is a nice fanatasy, and a nice story.
I play guitar in a local coffee house from time to time. Even if you know everybody in the room, you get an adrenaline rush when you've had a great set. You get used to the rush and you try to find ways to keep it going.
Some do drugs, other turn to sex. Great to see your kids found love is the other great rush. Many big perfomers lose that chance.
Great story.
This has to be one of the best stories I have read on this good old site. give up the day job. if this is a sample of your work I can't wait for the big story. Well done. A talented writer in the making for sure. Bravo
Your imagination plus your talent makes you looked forward to! But it is more than that.
Most of your stories of late are of people we would like or envy and that makes the reading flow without prejudice or anger. The respect allows immersion and escape with strong interest for what may come.
It is a nice talent that I hope you will flaunt for us for awhile longer.
With Very High Regard
Bazza,
I know just what it is to be a small town musician since I spent 5 years around 6 different bands, half rock, half country. I paid my way for a semester shooting pictures of them all, some studio, some onstage, some candid. You get to know people when you spend a lot of time with them and I can think of 4 guitar players this could be about. Except none of them ever met the big star singer. You nailed the attitude of a talented person that really doesn't think they are that good. Some of these guys are amazing and never make it big. I did like the part about straightening up her act. Most of us that are left from the 70's and early 80's did that in one way or another.
Thanks for a great story.
This is what LITerotica should be. Really well done.
This was excellent and a classic story line and ending that I enjoyed very much.
Great, great story. Beautiful characters. Great ending. You're top notch. Regards, Dan.
Bazzza, your stories are like fine wine. They just get better with time. Each time I read this one, I get something else from it. You are a master at this story telling.
I always enjoy your stories and found this one to be another great story and excellent read. Thank You. I'll watch for your next !
This was a "Moog Player" type of story--greatly written and boy did I feel for the guy when they beat him!
I enjoyed every moment of reading this modern romance. Thanks and keep writing.

No excuse for this, it's a famous story and you have access to the internet if you weren't sure
I've just read it again for the fourth or fifth time.. It is a classic. Beautiful.
Bazzza, when you wrote this one, you set the bar very high for yourself as well as the other writers. Here is an example of your superb dialog writing:
"How'd you find this place?" I asked.
She shrugged her shoulders, "Easy really. Went to that music shop in town and asked who's the worst guitar player around here. Told me your name and pointed me up here into the hills."
Memorable!
It seems I re-read this story about once a year, and never get tired of it. A classic. If you are still around, I hope you post another one, real soon!
You make a really fine story , but, you need an editor and a spell checker. No problem with the story, I come back to it every once in a while. Really like it.
Being a musician myself, I truly understand how the main character felt about having his guitar stolen. And because of the fact that I've played with a small but memorable number of different recording artists, I also understand what it's like to stand on a stage and play in front of a massive crowd. With that said, I think you've done an outstanding job of writing a story that hit very near to my heart. Thank you, and keep them coming.

becoming one with a musical moment is greater than being the composer, performer, audience, or auditorium. It takes time to come down from magical moments.
The inner experience is nothing like that which comes from an artificially induced high. There are no substances, chemical or organic, that can produce the intensity derived from being in the music. Love, enhances it beyond the ability to describe.
coming down from the natural high takes time.
If you haven't experienced it, you just can't know.
not likely. reality is cruel and show people/ entertainers ARE some of the sorriest people on earth. you love'em for their talents, but when they have the audacity to preach to the stupid masses it irks me. married multiple times and affairs even more.....hard pressed to think of any single group of people with more shallow lives.
Is it still considered acoustic if the guitar is plugged in?
"I'm gonna ask him to step on the stage and accompany me on an acoustic version of some new material."
" . . . , Jeff Mills was waiting and handed me my guitar with a big grin.
"Tuned and plugged in, ready to go. Knock em dead."
Yes its called an acustic electric lol. Its still and acustic it just olugs up to amplify.
I really do not know how to comment on this story. I hate drugs, it has cost me the lives of several friends. I run from people who use drugs, but I can forgive those who try to leave them or help those who ask for help to abandon them. But I'm not going to be a hypocrite, I do not think I could fall in love with a woman who uses drugs, not again at least ...
5 * for you.
I apologize for my English (yet and forever), isn't my native language.
Shaved pussy, she was giddy like a child...well she looked like a six year old, at least her pussy. Sorry I PREFER A WOMAN! The story was nice and the abject shallow humanity of most rock stars came through. Mostly scum of the earth people, but she made an effort to change, maybe it worked...we will see....
Where in the world did this happy ending come from? So many authors seem to enjoy the bittersweet or even sad ending. It was a pleasure to watch these two people grow in their love and their personal maturity. I was waiting until the last sentence for the shoe to drop, but it never happened. Thanks for a nice ride! 5*
A really enjoyable story! Wonderfully developed and written with rich characters worth investing in. Also,this story was just the right length,fully developed yet no excess to distract and dilute. Very well done and deserving of a 5 stars rating.
Usually on a good day you’d get four. If you’d published this in 2020 he’d give you 3 stars for it being “too predictable” or some such shit. Bazzza, consider yourself lucky.
Really like this type of story, have read it a lot of times and keep coming back to it, keep up the great work, thanks for your time and imagination
so he gets assaulted by her friends for trying to help her and then lets her right back into his life after all she says is “i’m so sorry” ??? next chapter gonna end up in the loving wives category after she gets back on coke and has her same friends fuck her in front of him
A good story that would have been a great story if there were not so many frustrating editing faults, making it difficult to read and detracting from the story line. I ask this writer to please take more care of editing before posting.
