Chapter 1446 1446 Continue to Be Absent
Pedro looked a little uneasy standing on the red carpet. Alfonso, who was standing beside him, seemed to sense his nervousness and patted his shoulder with a smile, "Don't be nervous, it's no different from usual." Pedro let out a long breath, buttoned the second button of his suit, and walked side by side with Alfonso.
At this time, the two members who appeared on the red carpet were the two members of Glory to Death, Pedro and Alfonso, but unlike before, there were only the two of them, no Hugo, nor Neil and Fu. Gold figure.
In fact, this is not uncommon. Although Glory to Death is a band, when the band is not active, they are all independent individuals. Each member has his own life, even if it is not as popular as Hugo's actor career. It's booming, but it can't be ignored.
Just like Nirvana, Kurt Cobain's brilliance has almost occupied everyone's attention, and even many people who don't understand rock directly equate Kurt with Nirvana, but in fact, Dave Gross Ernest, Pass-Smile and others also have their own lives and careers, and the Spitfire band they have formed today is the best proof.
Usually, in addition to Hugo, the other four members also attend some public occasions more or less, and it is not surprising to see Pedro and Alfonso today. It's just that this is the Grammys, the most topical music festival in the United States. It is difficult to explain the fate of Glory to the Dead and the Grammys. For a long time, Glory to the Dead at the Grammys has always been in the image of a team. It appeared that only two members came together today, which really surprised the reporters at the scene.
Of course, the more important reason is Hugo's absence, which is a piece of news that upsets everyone.
Pedro and Alfonso stood in front of the reporters, and of course they were asked about Hugo's news. The problem must be Hugo-related, and now Neil owes me a quarter of a dollar." This made the reporters chuckle.
"After Hugo returned to Los Angeles, he immediately started filming the movie. He is already behind a lot of progress." Usually when Glory to the Dead appeared, Neil was in charge of the official answer, but today it was Alfonso Taking over the initiative, this made many reporters' eyes brighten, "Hugo also expressed great regret for missing tonight's awards ceremony. Pepe and I are going to call Hugo at the follow-up party later to let him know. He is envious."
Hearing Alfonso's relaxed words, Pedro's nervousness was also resolved, and he gradually returned to his usual lively and active personality, "Neil and Fokin are now in New York, so I guess they will envy us too."
No one expected this outcome, Hugo was on set filming "Independence Day", and Neil and Fokkin went to New York to visit Sheeran Raikkonen for their new album - the production of their first two albums People, and finally Pedro and Alfonso showed up at the Grammys.
What exactly does this mean?
The first thought in the minds of the reporters was: Glory to Death caused infighting. Behind the band's booming career, there was a serious imbalance in the personal development of the five members. There is currently no tour, and preparations for the third album have been delayed, which will inevitably lead to disputes among the members.
There are countless stories about the inside of a rock band, and almost every band can't avoid it, because the band members are all independent individuals, with thoughts, consciousness and desires. With the rise and fall of the band's achievements, communication between members is crucial, and there are countless bands that have parted ways due to differences of mind.
How can the glory of death be an exception?
Although it can be known from Pedro and Alfonso's words that the band members had a conversation about the Grammys, and the two of them attended as representatives and were recognized by the band members, but... the reporters will not Believe this statement.
It's as if celebrity couples and celebrity couples are exposed by reporters that there is a relationship crisis, they both deny it in unison, and even show their love in public in a group, but only they know the truth - maybe soon. There will be definitive news of their relationship breaking up.
Therefore, the reporters will never let this news go.
Sure enough, the next day of the Grammy Awards Ceremony, in addition to the news about the winners list, the news of the internal division of Glory to Death began to fly all over the sky. In the next 48 hours, the number of media reprinted reached 24, and the whole news was abuzz.
Relying on the album "Bath in the Morning Light" to reach the pinnacle of his career, his every move is the focus of the market's attention, and this was once again proved at the just-concluded 38th Grammy Awards. Although it is said that the biggest winner of this year's Grammys is Seale who swept the "Kiss of the Rose", and Alanis who reached the peak with "Little Broken Pill", but the glory still won two gramophone trophies.
"Wonderwall" first won Best Rock Song in the rock department, beating Bob Dylan, Neil Young, U2, Alanis Morissette; In the competition for the comprehensive awards, he defeated "Kiss of the Rose", "You are not alone", "You should know", "One of us", and won the Best Production Award of the year!
This is also the second consecutive year that Hugo won the Best Production Award after relying on "Beautiful. Day" last year, which is also the best affirmation of Hugo's identity as a songwriter.
Last year, Glory to Death won three gramophone trophies, which established the status of rock and roll in the mainstream market; this year, Glory to Death won two gramophone trophies again with the single "Lost Wall" this year, ushering in the gold of rock and roll. Era.
Among the four comprehensive awards, three categories were dominated by rock, the best album of the year was picked up by Alanis' "Little Broken Pill", and the best newcomer of the year was unexpectedly attributed to the owl. With Pufferfish, the best production of the year went to Hugo with "The Wall", and only the best single of the year went to Schiele's "Kiss of the Rose" - a single that was classified in the pop department.
Among the four awards, Rookie of the Year is undoubtedly a big upset. The new metal rock band Owl and Pufferfish defeated strong competitors, defeated Alanis, who won a total of three trophies, and defeated Shania, whose album sales are infinitely approaching tens of millions, has risen strongly as a dark horse. Of course, it can also be considered that although Alanis's "small broken pill" is excellent, it has not reached the level of sweeping.
Even so, the new metal rock has won a victory at this Grammy, and people can't help but sigh: if Glory to the Dead turns out this year, will they be able to win the Rookie of the Year Award? Of course, this assumption is meaningless in itself, because there would be no new metal rock today without Glory to Death.
Other than that, it's worth mentioning that Mariah Carey came home empty-handed, Pearl Jam and Nirvana each won their first Grammys - Nirvana beat Spitfire to be the best Alternative music albums in the bag.
There is no doubt that when the Grammys came to an end, Glory to Death once again became the focus of attention, and the absence of Hugo and the presence of Pedro and Alfonso as representatives made the topic even hotter. It's all being discussed: Has the glory to death reached its peak state, has it ushered in a turning point for the band and is in danger of falling apart?
Everyone knows that internal divisions among band members are often more deadly than career fluctuations. Because there is no inspiration for music creation, you can still find or ask for help from others; if your career declines, you can rely on the next album to turn the tide again... But there has been a split between the band members, and things are not that simple anymore, and people's hearts are not simple. Math problems, trust is not furniture that can be reused after being taped.
In an instant, along with the Grammy discussion, beyond everyone's expectations, the news of the internal divisions of Glory to Death began to boil, even more lively than the Golden Globe Awards and the Berlin Film Festival - after all, the band's internal gossip is always It is a more suitable topic for discussion after tea and dinner.
Neil and Fookin, who were far away in New York, were immediately surrounded by reporters.
Neil, as the leader of the band, officially denied the news, "Originally, Fokkin and I thought that these news were too ridiculous and there was no need to explain. But when we were having dinner in the Olive Garden yesterday, someone asked me personally, It really made me laugh and cry. So I thought, we need to explain, after all, we're not 'anonymous' anymore, aren't we?" Neil said lightly, "Pepe and Alfonso at the Grammys, It was a unanimous decision of our band, and it was a good thing that they represented the band at the awards ceremony. Of course, I have absolutely no idea about the follow-up party."
Hugo, who was filming in Burbank, still did not come out for an interview. His manager Joseph and his agent Henry Bloom spoke as representatives. Hugo said that Pedro and Alfonso attended the awards ceremony. He had known for a long time, and he had no objection, the rumors of internal disputes in the band were false.
"Hugo told me that this sentence must be said in front of all the reporters," Joseph paused for a while, and then looked at Henry who was standing beside him with a helpless smile, which made the reporters' curiosity all of a sudden. The uproar started, and Joseph said, "Pepe, you got your trousers tucked into your socks when you came on stage to accept the award, and you and Alfonso chose their red carpet outfits based on 'Dumb and Dumber' inspiration. Is it?" After speaking, Joseph raised his hands helplessly, "I'm sure that what Hugo said just now has nothing to do with me."
