Chapter 1104 1104 Brewing Hurricane

Maybe many people think that Grammys are too commercial and too mainstream, so they are dismissive of Grammys, but objectively, no one can deny the powerful influence of Grammys. From The Beatles to Michael Jackson, Elvis Pressley to Frank Sinatra, Whitney Houston to Mariah Carey, the Grammys are always on the list of top stars all occupy an important position.

Glory to Death will not change itself for the Grammys, but it is undeniable that being able to win the Grammys is a very important step for Glory to Death, new metal rock, and alternative rock.

Of course, it has nothing to do with the band, what history is important and what musical progress is, they are just happy. Hugo looked at the excited teammates in front of him, and looked at the colleagues who swarmed up to express their congratulations. The memories that flashed in his heart gradually dissipated. He has never regretted this journey, and he will not regret it either. He will continue to walk unswervingly. The beautiful scenery on the road, he will keep it in his mind and become his most precious wealth.

As I said in the acceptance speech just now, at least this is not the end.

Hugo squeezed the gramophone trophy in the handshake, the joy of just winning the Best Rock Song Award was hidden deep in his heart, because he knew that he had a bigger task at hand tonight. Now that the Grammys have begun the pace of change, but they are cautious and afraid of making mistakes, then let the glory to death be the driving force!

After the crowd who came to congratulate dispersed, the team members who died of glory gathered together again. Pedro was still panting. Obviously, he jumped up and down too much just now. Alfonso glanced at Pedro helplessly. Then he turned to look at Hugo and the others, "What's next?"

This is a pun. It is asking them how they should prepare for the performance next. They won the award unexpectedly, skipped the steps of the staff leading them to the backstage, and stood directly in the backstage, so what should happen next, there is no It was a guide; it was also a question. Grammys unexpectedly awarded them an award, so is the Glory to the Dead performance still going according to plan? Or continue to publicly confront the Grammys?

Hugo raised his eyebrows slightly, "I'm ready, how about you?" Obviously, Hugo was saying that nothing had changed.

The five members of Glory to Death exchanged glances with each other, and then they all showed tacit smiles, tacit understanding of each other, and Neil said, "Performance time! Glory to death!" This is before every band performance. The cheering slogan, as the captain, Neil said this sentence, which means that a hurricane is about to come on the stage of the Holy Auditorium.

"Gentlemen, please follow me." A staff member came over and said to the members of Glory to Death with a smile. Obviously, he will be in charge of the series before the Glory to Death performance begins. Resting the instrument, adjusting the instrument, verifying the microphone, etc., for a grand performance, the preparation work cannot be ignored.

Just as Glory to Death was preparing for the performance, Henry was heading towards the monitoring room.

For tonight, Henry, Rick, and Joseph have been planning for a long time. They feel a little bit gathered together to do bad things, and it is amazing that both Henry and Rick are agents. The thing is that they will never agree, but they have all become accomplices in crime, not only have no worries, but also have a kind of excitement and pleasure of accomplishing great things.

This is really a wonderful thing.

While the award ceremony was going on just now, Henry and Joseph and Rick acted separately. Before the awards ceremony, they had already persuaded or bribed the staff to ensure that the lighting and sound groups would be on their side during the Glory to Death performance, even if the director group issued an order to suspend, Nor do they stand to interrupt the supply of lights or impressions, buying more time to die in glory.

But even so, they still need to send someone to supervise the scene to make sure things don't go wrong. Joseph is in charge of the sound, Rick is in charge of the lighting, and they will be double-safety.

As for Henry, he has the most important and difficult part on his shoulders: preventing the director from reacting in the first place. If the director directly switches the screen in the broadcast studio and switches the live screen to an advertisement or a promotional film, then all the work on the scene will be in vain.

But the director is not like other positions. They can persuade the deputy or assistant of the lighting engineer or sound engineer to take over the work at the moment of the glory to the death, or destroy the connection between the main person in charge and the director, or pass the wrong order, Let the director's correct instructions be ten or twenty seconds late, and maybe things will work. But not as a director.

For the director, Henry had to go in person, and the situation on the scene was full of unknowns that could not be controlled. Henry walked towards the monitoring room with steady steps, but he was recalling the director's information in his mind.

Joey. Henderson, this is the general director of tonight's Grammy Awards broadcast, this director is a music video shooter, his first job was in Michael Jackson's famous The music video for "Billie Jean (Billie. Jean) was a live lighting assistant, and this music video was the first milestone that changed the direction of music history.

After this experience, Joey's work progressed very smoothly. He successively filmed music videos for top singers such as Madonna, Whitney Houston, Guns and Roses, Aerosmith, etc. These experiences became his entry into the TV circle. Knock on the door. In the past three years, Joey has served as the director of many TV series. Although he only directed the scattered episodes, he has accumulated a lot of experience and has become the most famous music program of MTV TV station "MTV Unplugged". (MTV. Unplug)" Live Director.

It is the job of "MTV unplugged" that made Joey the director of the 37th Grammy. His control over the scheduling of the scene and the atmosphere of the audience is the biggest advantage.

From Joey's experience, it can be found that he has always had an indissoluble bond with rock and roll, and many jobs are also closely related to rock. The last official TV show before Kurt Cobain committed suicide was "MTV Unplugged" and Joey was there.

Henry can only hope that the rock element of Joey's many experiences can leave an imprint in his veins, and then become the breakthrough for him to complete the fatal blow tonight.

While thinking about it, the monitoring room was already in sight. Henry looked at the door. Fortunately, due to the long history of the Holy Auditorium, the door handles here are all old-fashioned and not iron doors. But, if the door is locked, how will he get in?

At this moment, the door of the monitoring room opened, and a staff member came out. Henry couldn't dodge in time, but he ran into it head-on, and the other party looked at Henry suspiciously. Although it is said that the background is not fortified, generally speaking, this kind of live broadcast does not allow outsiders to enter and exit casually.

Henry rolled his eyes and said directly, "The backstage bathrooms are full. My artist will be on stage soon. Is there a bathroom on the other side?"

"Your artist?" The staff member was obviously not so fooled, and asked with a frown.

"Maria-Kelly, I'm her assistant." Henry said seriously, seeing the sudden realization of the staff member, Henry had another look on his face, and then added, "You know, she is very concerned about her own Private matters always ask for more."

The staff nodded with a "you know I know" expression. It has been more than four years since Maria's rise. Especially in the past year or two, the rumors about Maria's troubles have been spreading. Now, there are still people who are vaguely complaining that Maria likes to play big names. Although it's just a few rumors at the moment, it's not really widely confirmed, but people who wander around in this circle more or less know a little bit.

More importantly, the artist's stylists, hair stylists, and assistants are often the first-hand sources of news.

So, Henry's argument is very convincing.

The staff looked back at the end of the corridor. "Here is one for the staff. You can ask Maria to use it. It's an emergency. If you go to the other side of the stage and you have to go around in a big circle, she probably doesn't want it." After finishing the last sentence, the staff member also blinked, as if to say, "She is really troublesome."

Henry spread his hands to express his helplessness, but in fact it was an approval, "Don't say it, I have to run back quickly, otherwise it will be worse if you slow down." The staff watched Henry turn around and leave with a sympathetic expression.

After Henry reached the corner of the corridor, he hid, and then began to calculate. There is at least one good news. It seems that the staff's awareness of vigilance is not high, which creates an opportunity for him.

"Huh..." Henry let out a long breath, and began to brew a head-to-head confrontation with Joey for a while. This kind of nervous feeling was really long gone, and it reminded Henry of when he first entered the industry.

Tonight is more important to Glory to Death than signing with EMI Records, and it is more important than the brilliance of the album "Bath in the Morning Light". Henry hopes to help Glory to Death realize this grand plan.

At this time, the glory standing on the side stage began to move their limbs to death. Their performance followed closely behind Pearl Jam. This was the penultimate series performance in the first half. After that, two The awards, followed by a halftime performance by Neil Young, ended the first half.

Hugo looked at Pearl Jam who was sweating recklessly on the stage, and the members of Pearl Jam worked extra hard today, because this is the first time that grunge has truly landed at the Grammys. Audiences around the world are feeling the glamour of grunge. This is their duty and their dream.

The song has come to an end, and Neil's voice came over, "Guys!" The four teammates turned their eyes to the captain, then looked at Neil confidently and said, "It's our turn!"
