Chapter 464 464 Special Gift
It turns out that this is the stage. It turns out that the feeling of standing on the stage is so beautiful, so wonderful that all language loses its color. Not only are there cheers, shouts and screams, but also chorus, jumps and swings, and more importantly, there are resonance. Listening to all the audience immersed in the song and empathizing with it is the greatest compliment to the performer.
Glory to Death has performed many times on the street, but street performance is not a stage, there is still a big difference, today they stand on the real stage, have the most direct communication with the audience, and then get the most perfect 's response. At this moment, the surging emotions of the band members are definitely not inferior to the audience in front of them.
The endless stream of screams, whistles, and shouts in front of them forced the band members to interrupt the performance and quietly felt the surging heat wave drown themselves. Close your eyes, spread your arms, as if you are embracing the world.
Looking at the excited band members standing on the stage, Samora suddenly realized that this moment was the best time for them to send gifts, so he grabbed the over-excited partners around him, gestured to each other, and then they He waved the blue glow stick in his hand.
The blue light stick is not obvious in the night sky, just like a ray of light in the deep sea, but after constantly waving it, it draws a beautiful blue arc, so the audience behind can easily see it When this sign is reached, everyone knows: the time to reveal the gift is coming, which also makes the noise and noise of the scene cool down rapidly, and it settles down in an instant, leaving only the hot air flying overhead, the contrast is obvious. Silence is confusing.
The band members were a little overwhelmed when they stood on the stage, because the noise disappeared too suddenly. Logically, there should be a gradual process from strong to weak, but now it is like a ninety-degree cliff, falling directly from the top. In the dirt, it was really disconcerting.
All the members couldn't help looking at each other, but they didn't understand what was going on, so Hugo planned to say to his teammates not to care and continue to play the next song, but at this moment, Pedro saw the abnormality in front of him and jumped. Pointing forward, the other members of the band turned their heads subconsciously and looked in the direction of Pedro's fingers.
I saw that on the side of the stage near the entrance, there were three or five people holding blue light sticks, forming a small beam of light, waving them, and then a group of people shouted, "San Francisco! San Francisco! San Francisco!" A little later, another small beam waved, and the shout of "Las Vegas" echoed three times.
The beam continued to light up in the direction from left to right, and the shouts of the groups sounded one by one, Salt Lake City, Cheyenne, Denver, Albuquerque, Dallas... The names of these cities are So unfamiliar and familiar, Neil immediately reacted when he heard Xia Delay. This is obviously the order of cities for the band's road tour, and those fans more or less come from that city or state, and those who have no representatives are present. ——For example, in Little Rock, Samora and the others standing at the front would shout in unison, and then let the shouting continue.
Hugo didn't react at first, he really didn't have any inspiration for direction, location, etc. He only heard the names of a series of cities, and these cities were visited by the band, but he didn't understand the sequence What is the meaning of. It wasn't until Neil took the initiative to remind him that Hugo reacted - and Neil was not surprised at all when he saw Hugo's sudden realization, which was obviously what he expected.
This is really a very magical thing, standing on the stage to the death of glory, and then watching the more than 10,000 spectators shouting in this way, let their memories return to the beginning of July 5th. During the journey, there were too many things happened in more than four months, and every call at this time made the memory of the city awaken again in my mind. There were hardships, difficulties and setbacks, happiness and joy and happiness. It's unbelievable that the little things that grace this road-going ride to Death to Glory.
Hearing the names of the cities, Hugo couldn't help but look back at his teammates. Everyone had a similar look on their faces: Incredible, even they themselves couldn't believe that they really completed this section. journey. When Hugo and Fukukin proposed it, everyone thought it was nothing, it was just a trip across the United States, and it wasn't difficult, but just the first stop in San Francisco, the band knew that this tour was not that easy. So they stumbled all the way over. It is unimaginable that they spent more than four months and more than 100 days, starting from San Francisco, arriving in New York, and then starting from Boston and returning to Los Angeles. This journey , it's really amazing.
When more than 5,000 people at the scene shouted, "Los Angeles! Los Angeles! Los Angeles", the real feeling of the end of the journey really entered the body. It turned out that they really completed this journey, they really came to the end, They really persevered!
Thirty-three cities, 101 days, and more than 200 performances, Glory to Death finally completed this arduous journey, and then more than 10,000 audience members shouted in unison, "D.O.G, D.O.G, D.O.G!" The tsunami-like cry of the mountain gave people a momentary illusion, this is the feeling of standing on the top of Mount Everest, this is God standing on the top of the clouds overlooking human feeling.
"D.O.G" is short for Death. Or. Glory, and at this moment, more than 10,000 spectators turned the band's name into a work of art, a logo, and a memorable moment , and one more faith!
This gift from the audience filled Hugo's heart with excitement that could not be expressed in words. He had been dreaming for more than ten years and finally got on this stage, and what this stage gave back to him far exceeded him. He finally fully understood what Katharine Hepburn said at the beginning: As long as there is one audience, I am willing to perform.
Not because of nostalgia for this piece of light, nor because of this piece of cheering, but because there is only one audience member willing to cheer for his performance, and the stage under his feet already has infinite enthusiasm, Make yourself willing to give everything and do your best to perform. If one day, the last audience member also leaves, then he will no longer have a reason to stay on the stage, he can turn around and leave without any attachment or regret; but as long as there are still audience standing in front of the stage, He will continue to perform until the end of his life.
No matter in the eyes of others, such a life is grandstanding, meaningless, or a waste of life, but in my opinion, this is the value of life, for the things I love, I will stick to it without hesitation. This is the real splendor of life, and it is also the real courage of life. Not everyone has this courage, not everyone has this dedication, and not everyone can see this color.
Hugo's heart was surging, Pedro jumped up and down with joy, Alfonso was speechless with emotion, Neil smiled happily, and Fujin wiped the moisture from the corners of his eyes with excitement... This is for glory to death, It is a beginning, a very beautiful beginning, but it is only the beginning. The boiling blood burns their enthusiasm and passion, blooming the most wonderful fireworks!
"Thank you. Thank you very much." Hugo could only respond to this unique gift. Other than that, any language is pale and powerless, and no amount of gorgeous words can express his inner feelings at this time. Excited, "Thank you!" He said the word again, then took a deep breath, "Then let's continue the party!"
The guitar strings in Alfonso's hand were like the wind, blowing one after another. Fugin's drum beat was like the sound of thunder hidden behind the dark clouds. A ray of sunshine illuminates a world in the night sky, "My vision is extremely wide, I enjoy every day I walk on the road ahead, and appreciate the world outside the window, which means saying goodbye to the past and starting the journey from today. To hear Mr. Halley's Comet whispering to me, 'Why are you always standing still', even the man who landed on the moon will soon disappear somewhere in the stratosphere."
In order to thank the fans for this special gift, Glory to the Dead offered the most special "Second. Chance". This song comes from Hugo's inner persistence. After changing the environment and changing his life, he told himself not to panic and not to be afraid. Many times, change means a chance to start over, so Hugo did not give up, he bravely moved towards With the unknown tomorrow, he stepped forward, so he came here!
"Please tell my parents that I have done everything I can to let them know that this is my own life, and I hope to get their understanding. I am not sulking, but calm down and say: sometimes leaving means second next chance."
Hugo's voice recklessly released energy in the melody, and the catharsis that hit the wall head-on expresses the gratitude, excitement and happiness of the band members. In fact, every member of Glory to Death has seized the second chance. Alfonso and Fokin have both received a new life, and Neil and Pedro have ushered in a new opportunity. The feeling of this song is so similar, and it also contains its own thoughts. When all these emotions are integrated into the melody, it collides with dazzling sparks, which are vividly interpreted in Hugo's voice that exploded to the limit. come out.
"Sometimes leaving means a second chance", this kind of direct and sincere cry whizzed through the hearts of every audience, different from the feeling of any previous song, as if the soul was standing under the winter waterfall Like receiving baptism, the biting cold is mixed with the hearty pleasure, making the whole world change its color.
