Slide Trombone — David Nickle

Drugs, booze, the music of Led Zeppelin and a fish who prefers Rush turn a weekend jam session into a moment of transcendence and depravity for four old high school friends trying to recapture their glory days. From Monstrous Affections, this tale is part of Stoker Award-winner David Nickle's collection of short fiction about love in all its horrific proportions.
