Author's notes:This was started by a photomanipulation of Rhys Darby I saw on Twitter, with someone wanting to know what his (as Stede) story would be. I thought he looked like a teen heartthrob a few decades down the line, so that's what I wrote.

Title is from the Simon & Garfunkel song of the same name, about touring. Seems like most bands have a song about how shit touring is, and this one is my favorite.

I have done an extremely, pathetically small amount of worldbuilding but Frenzal Rhomb was a real punk bank in AO/NZ in the 2000s so I guess they're there?
