Author's notes: This fic is written in a slightly AU timeline, where Andy joins the band straight away. One or two formerly key players may also be conspicuous by their absence...

This is essentially the second half of the last chapter – we'll be leaping ahead a couple of months after this one!

Disclaimer: Get me a Dolorean and I'll make it real; until then, sadly not true.
