Such The Serendipitous Dive Bar

Such the serendipitous dive bar,
a man walked in who was almost missed;
“You are destined” he said “for ‘Rockstar
on tour.’ Go and dust off that setlist.”

“Throw out all those decrepit covers.
I’ve got your back let’s send you soaring!
You may have some with those makeovers
sharing your soul they’ll ALL come running!

Twenty five thousand people will stand 
waiting for you under the limelight;
No need for that tip jar understand? 
You’re already so clean.. stay airtight.”

“Who are you what’s this all about?”
“I saw you play last night.” he replied
Call me a scout caught up in your shout,
with it’s sucker punch my tears you cried.”
