    Summary

    42 years ago, on a beautiful day in spring in 1973, a rock band from Chinatown, San Francisco, rose to fame and surpassed any expectations. They called themselves Coreless, and their sound defined an era. In 1978 they went on an unexpected hiatus during their biggest tour. Half a year later, in 1979, after months of silence, they split as their frontman and lead singer, Wei Wuxian, disappeared. No one knew why. Until now.
    Today, it’s the first time— and last time— the band will comment on their shared history.
    Coreless— the band that could not be tamed.
    The wait is over.

    Summary

    He hasn’t heard from him in almost a year.

    Hesitant, he says, “Henry?”

    There’s a sniffle. “Alex.”

    Alex’s shoulders go taut with tension; he may not have heard from him in a year and had only seen him in tabloids and the occasional interview or ribbon cutting on a shitty stream that Alex had no business being on, but he hasn’t forgotten Henry’s tells. He hasn’t forgotten the edge to his voice on his dark days; the way it clings to the very molecules of air surrounding him, as if it wishes to seep into every ounce of air he dares breathe in.

    Alex swallows, sets his highlighter down. “Henry,” he says carefully, “what’s going on?”

    -

    Or, a year after Henry tells Alex to leave, he does something unthinkable.
