You meet Phil Lectrum at a book store

You are in Camazots. This is the largest mom and pop book store in the entire western United States. You pick up the new issue of the very brittish Choppin Riffs magazine. It has a nice disc full of demo computer music programs each month. You read the cover story about a new singing program that has a full 30 day use demo on the disc. Its called Vitual Singer. It filters your singing voice to sound like the singing voices of one of three presets in the stripped down demo version. You can sing and have it sound like Elvis, Briteny Houstin, or Johny Mollkin! The full version has forty presets including Micheal Jackson! You see a dark skinned man smelling of lavender and cinnamon oil belly up to the magazine rack. He looks really familiair. He picks up a copy of Tickle the Ivory, a magazine dedicated to pianos only. He turns to a add for a new piano company that sell pianos made to replacate the sounds of a John Cage prepared pianos. Complete with the ability to trick out the tricks and change presets! He turns to you and raves about this instrument with intence excitment. You talk to him about John Cage whose music you both admire. He introduces himself as Phil Lectrum, yes the Phil Lectrum! He invites you to a party to be thrown on Dog Shit Cove, a beach on the nohern side of Lake Crump. You accept.
