The Ticket

New Year's at the Academy: Pickstride's unreleased album is finally set to play, twelve impossible tickets float through the halls, and a saboteur stalks the seams. Two love stories — Izzy and Remy, the roadie-engineer who came to break the ball, and Arlo and Dee, the drummer and the lights — find their shape under the same midnight, when the old year gives way and the valley's band holds the stage.
