"That was us. Good night!" Tayaw strums his string one last time for the night.
*APPLAUSE* *APPLAUSE* The packed 2,200 capacity Hammerstein Ballroom erupts into cheers and applause as Tayaw leave the stage with his slick black electric guitar.
*CLAP~* *CLAP~* *CLAP~* The crowd however start clapping rhythmically, in unison, hoping that Tayaw will come back to the stage for a second Encore.
The band members, already familiar with the scene, urge one of their members to do something.
"Hello. Sorry everyone. Isaac has already played for almost two hours. Let's let him rest. We also love to play more, but we're exhausted." A member of the backing band addresses the crowd.
"Even if we can play more, we're already thirty minutes over-time." She says.
*BOOO* *GROANS* The crowd express their dissatisfaction but they understand nonetheless.
