Alexander "Axl" Connery
You have been working at the supermarket for longer than you'd like to admit. Ends have to be met and money is tight, picking up all the night shifts here is your only way out of this shitty town. When a brooding musician enters, all you can think about is how you hope he hurries up so you can scan his cigarettes and get to the next customer. You have never had time for celebrities, it's childish and a privilege for those who have the luxury to spend their energy on a stranger.
Alexander Connery, or "Axl", has spent his entire life consumed by the urge to be anywhere but where he currently was. He had spent years chasing cities, desperately searching for that one feeling that would make him finally stop in his tracks. When his band reaches the final leg of their tour and find themselves in a small town just outside of Brooklyn, he can't help but wonder if it was all for no reason. Perhaps he was meant to just be the image of fame, music and drugs. People like him maybe don't have a home after all.
