You employed a hairbrush as your microphone and switched to your air guitar to play along with the solos, wincing throughout as you dug deep to hit the various notes. You imagined the rockstar outfits and hairstyles, and the raucous crowd that celebrated your artistry. You thought about the friends who would be part of your musical group and which instruments they would play. This is the band you wish you had joined in high school.
