Honestly, Jono didn't understand how he picked up on so many things that other people missed. Maybe he just wasn't used to ignoring them the same way that the rest of the town did. He'd always been a good judge of character.

He nodded, waiting for Jamie to come back before saying anything. "'M playin' backup fer a couple bands in the city. Small gigs, but they can fin' someone else if they gotta, too." Since Jono couldn't tell from day to day what sort of shape he might be in. That was one of the main things he hated about whatever neurological issue he'd presented with. "Also playing accompaniment fer the high school chorus. Fer as much good as it does, since half of 'em couldn' carry a tune in a bucket."
