Travis weaved his way through the fairly decent crowd, a drink in his hand as he walked from the bar to the steps that led to the upper level of the club. He preferred to be looking down at the crowd rather than in the middle of it, plus it gave him a better view of the band. The band actually wasn't horrid tonight, not his style but he had heard worse. And at least it wasn't a screeching cat that could yodel or whatever in the hell experimental percussion was.
For a rare change he had his hair down tonight, the curls soft and natural. He had switched his glasses for contacts and was wearing a pair of tight black jeans and a tight violet blue shirt that made his eyes look almost gun-metal grey. Mounting the steps he took a drink of his beer and glanced over at the band as he now had a better view of them. And then practically spit his beer out.

This was certainly a change for our savant. A big change. Not only had he joined a band, which was way beyond his comfort zone, but he was the lead guitarist in a band... and he was singing. On the bright side, his singing wasn't too bad and what he lacked in singing skills he made up for in guitar skills.
After they finished their last song, John wandered over to the side of the stage to take a drink from the provided water bottle. In great contrast to his usual attire, John was wearing a black button down shirt with the sleeves rolled up (and of course several of the top buttons undone) and dark blue jeans... What? He wasn't going to break that far away from comfort.

"You know, most people consider being in a band a hobby." Travis said, leaning up against the stage, next to John, seemingly just appearing out of nowhere. A mischevious smirk on his face as he tilted his head back to look up at JD.

John's eyes buldged slightly when he saw Travis. "You startled me... Didn't see you there."

Travis raised an eyebrow at him, "Nobody ever does." he said, the smirk turning slightly more wicked. "So, you in a band, huh?" he said, looking him up and down. "I really didn't peg you for the type."

"Me neither," John started to put his guitar away. "It was really more of an accident."

Travis laughed and turned around, so he could rest his elbows on the stage floor. "Well that definetly sounds more like you." he said and took a drink of his beer. "How long have you been in it?"

"Since this afternoon," he said bluntly. "Like I said, an accident."

Travis stared at him for a moment and then started laughing so hard he had to hold himself up using the stage.

"What?" John looked distressed, "What's so funny?"

Which of course just made Travis laugh harder. After about a minute he was finally able to pull himself mostly together, although he avoided eye contact with JD. "Nothing really," he said slightly breathless with amusment in his tone. "Just you really."

Now John was just confused, "I wasn't trying to make you laugh... I'm very seldom funny."

Travis, who had been about to take a drink of beer, snorted with laughter, sending small amout of beer spraying. "John, you are perhaps the most amusing man I have ever had the pleasure of meeting." Travis said, finally making eye contact with him.

"Then I'd say you haven't met very many amusing men," John smiled slightly, finishing packing his gear.

Travis grinned at him, "Maybe not." he said and took a drink of beer, the giggles finally having left him. "So got any plans or can I treat you to a beer?"
