Bang The Drum, a five minute freewrite

The good-looking guy with the perfect teeth and hair she can only dream of having hands her a flyer and flashes her a big grin.

She pulls out the flyer and uncreases it. It is for a club night called Bang The Drum. She is fairly sure she would hate every minute and is already thinking up excuses why she shouldn't go.
