It had taken a bit of careful planning but thanks to pop's work picking up along with the U-17 season, Joshua was able to slot himself some alone time in the Alley for "shopping" and an unrestricted time limit. So to speak. His mom was the more chill between the two and would passively promote her son being allowed to just be a kid and not a well oiled machine reeving up for an inevitable career in racing. Despite this, as far as both his parents knew, he was in Diagon Alley today on Hogwarts business to replenish some supplies to his potions kit and some other loose ends still left to take care of before his sixth year started.
The reality? The Gryffindor just wanted to spend all day in the music shop and was banking on it being a less busy day so he could spend some time in one of the booths. He had had to pack his guitar away in the back of his closet for the summer seeing as when he was home he needed to study for OWLs or focus on Captain duties. It was just too risky to pull his guitar out and he had become entirely too accustomed to really belting it thanks to the shift in attitude in light of potentially vanishing forever at Hogwarts.
Thankfully there seemed to be openings today. He just needed to wait a few minutes for the person currently in the booth to finish up, which shouldn't be too much longer according to the sign-up sheet. So the shopkeeper had assured him at least.
So, in the meanwhile, he idly browsed the music selection and quickly moved towards the Phoenix Theater and West End recordings.
