Chapter 576 576 Opposition
Jessica felt that Sally's words were too exaggerated. Now the first half has just ended, there is a 90-minute break in the middle, and the second half of the performance starts at 7 pm. Glory to Death is the first to perform on the main stage. So, when Sally said "I'm going to be late," Jessica found it very interesting, but she didn't say anything, just followed her daughter and walked towards the main stage.
When Jessica and Sally came to the main stage, and looked at the crowd who stayed where they were and didn't want to leave, Jessica realized that Sally's worries were not wrong at all. It seemed that after an afternoon's experience , but still only experienced a little bit of rock and roll.
Sally and Jessica quickly walked through the crowd and walked towards the front of the stage, hoping to occupy a position in the first row at this time, watching the surrounding pictures rise because of extreme excitement. With red cheeks, they really felt the nature of these people being crazy about rock and roll, which made Sally think of the words she heard outside before entering the venue, "When all the performances are over and night falls, this will be the real thing. Carnival moment at a music festival."
These fans are not only crazy about the performance on stage, they are more crazy about the rock spirit that settles in the air, no matter whether there is a performance on the stage or not, their blood is boiling because of the rock notes.
Although the two struggled to squeeze into the second row, everyone was standing bustlingly here, and there was a little space between each other, but not enough to squeeze in, which forced Sally and Jessica to stop. I stepped down, and then I stood dryly in a small gap, and it was very difficult to stretch my hands and feet.
Jessica looked at Sally with rosy cheeks and couldn't help but feel a little worried, and quickly asked, "Are you hungry?" Then she took out the prepared food from her backpack, "There are still four and a half hours of performance at night, hurry up. Order something to eat." They only drank water all afternoon, and the food they ate at noon had already been consumed.
As the footsteps stopped, the endless discussions around him gradually became clear, "This damn band is not a band at all, they have taken away the soul of rock and roll, no guitar solos, no Gorgeous arrangement, no emotional catharsis, is that rock still called rock? God, this is really terrible. Although Junjie invited all alternative rock bands, but they are not even rock, how can they be qualified to appear here!"
"But this is also to be expected. Even bands like Kerosene Stove are on the stage. It's not surprising that they will be invited. They are also a strange flower. You say why there are so many strangely shaped bands this year. , the kerosene stove made rock and roll not rock, glory to death has lost the essence of rock and roll, and now their so-called rock is simply a pop song, which is disgusting."
"****, the most disgusting thing is that the media are good or not, they just kneel on the ground and lick the shoes of glory to death, they have been advocating that they have reformed rock and roll, let rock and roll regain its vitality, kill me, they are this Destruction is good or not, if it turns rock and roll into Madonna's call. bed. sound is also called reform, I'd rather rock and roll die."
"Their group of people are intersex people who have never seen the world. It is estimated that EMI dumped a lot of money for them. They are like pet dogs seeing their owners, barking wildly."
… These discussions are very common at the scene, and almost every music fan is expressing their own opinions and exchanging their ideas, especially because this is the Junjie Music Festival, all kinds of music with unique personalities and different styles can be seen. So people's discussions became more intense, but generally speaking, everyone knew about Junjie's attributes, so it was just a discussion, and it didn't lead to chaos.
Sally was eating sandwiches, and she gradually got used to the noise around her. She thought it was nothing, but it didn't sound right. She was talking about glory to death, and her words became more and more ugly. This made Sally's good mood ruined most of the time. Jessica didn't notice at first, but Sally's bad expression made her notice the words next to her, and her face stiffened.
But the group of people discussing next to her didn't pay attention to Sally at all—to be precise, they should have noticed and wouldn't care.
"Have you ever heard the music of glory to death? Haha." That laughter was full of malice.
"Trash. I mean real trash, you know. Just the kind of music that Mark, the three-year-old next door to me, hates as noise, and if they can tell it, it's an insult to music, an insult to rock."
"I don't know how they dare to call themselves rock and roll, God, it's such a depraved world, can you imagine that rock and roll will become music all over the street where any idiot can hum? It's ridiculous!"
"Glory to death... Haha, this name is really stupid, why don't they really die?"
"You! Shut up! Yes, it's you!" Just as Sally wanted to stand up to stop the vulgar words of the group, the words in her mind rang directly, and Sally looked around in astonishment. She was sure that she didn't speak just now, and everyone around looked to the left, and then Sally saw a group of energetic young people.
Standing at the front was a young girl with a pretty face flushed from anger. She bit her lower lip excitedly, trying to control her emotions, but it was obviously not easy. thing. Behind the girl stood two other girls, who also had glaring expressions on their faces, and three or four boys stood behind, two of whom had already started rolling up their sleeves and wanted to rush out to do something, but He was blocked by the three girls in front.
"You have the qualifications to express your views on music, but you are not qualified to insult other people's creations!" The girl roared with red cheeks, and it could be seen that she was working very hard to suppress her emotions.
Sally recognized the group, she had seen them last time at Amoeba Music, and she remembered that the group were Glory to the Dead music lovers, and they were even putting up a cheering banner.
"Nonsense! As long as it's rubbish, we have the right to criticize, not just us, but everyone!" The group of fans who were talking about glory to death just now were a group of men in their thirties, dressed in very ordinary and even sloppy clothes. It looks like a street music lover, raunchy. When they heard the accusation, they turned around and protested loudly.
As soon as this "rubbish" came out, the group of boys behind the girls couldn't help rushing up, but the girl standing at the front raised her voice and shouted, "It's ridiculous, you guys It's the most ridiculous." This sentence made the boy's movements stop, and also made everyone around him look over.
Sally vaguely remembered that the girl who was talking seemed to be called Meredith.
At this time, the girl didn't pause, and said in a big way, "You claim to be serious fans of rock and roll, and then insult those music that try to make changes to the existing rock, this is what you call a hobby, if it really is In this way, you are the existence of insult rock."
"Bitch. People, pay attention to your mouth!" Naturally, these men wouldn't let the other side be insulted, and they rolled up their sleeves and wanted to rush up.
But the girl did not flinch at all, but took a half step forward, "So, tell me, what is real rock! When punk appeared, how did traditional rock treat it? Everyone thinks that the arrival of punk is rock and roll. The beginning of death, but now? Punk has become the most important part of rock!"
"When grunge came out, how did the public opinion see it? People didn't even want to admit that it was a kind of rock, they just wanted to isolate them with words like 'alternative', as if it was a virus Normal. But now? Dare you say you don't like Nirvana, dare you say you don't like Pearl Jam?"
The girl is very petite, and her ruddy face looks even more lovely, but she is such a little girl who doesn't seem to have any threat, clenching her fists, raising her voice and speaking with dignity, she was stunned by the group of men just now. I couldn't say a single rebuttal, "So, let me tell you what real rock is!" The girl's loud words quieted the surrounding commotion.
"The real rock lies in the courage to break through oneself, dare to challenge oneself, break free from the so-called rules and regulations, and pursue freedom!" At this moment, the girl's soft voice burst into a sonorous and powerful spark, so that the loyal fans around could not help but burst out There were bursts of applause, all the audience here are diehard rock fans, and their understanding of rock is naturally very deep. The girl's words easily awakened everyone's resonance, "If you put a shackle on rock, what is the stipulation? What's not rock and roll, that's the beginning of rock's destruction."
"So, don't tell me that the music of the kerosene stove is not rock, their music is a height that you can't reach in your life; don't tell me that the music of glory to death insults rock, because of their sincere and passionate chasing rock The heart is something you will never understand." The girl's enthusiastic words made the surrounding applause one after another, but the group of men looked at each other in dismay, unable to say a word, "If you are the so-called rock and roll diehards, then It's not a pity to die without fans like you, because that would be the band's luck, not a loss."
"****, shut up for me, you are arguing!" The group of men tried to struggle, and raised their fists fiercely.
But the other fans who were watching immediately began to cheer, and a sentence emerged from the crowd, "You don't have to like it, then you choose to leave, don't try to apply your music ideas to others." This made the group The man suddenly became incomparably small. Although there were eight people in their group, compared to the thousands or even tens of thousands of people around them, they were just a drop in the ocean.
As a result, the group of men could only stare gloomily at the girl who had just spoken, and then murmured and cursed and walked away, but they didn't know whether they left or changed positions.
"Meredith, you are amazing," the partners next to the girl praised excitedly, which made the girl's face fill with an excited and excited smile. Li's eyes met.
Sally immediately showed a bright smile, expressing her admiration, and the girl smiled and nodded, giving a reply. Sally suddenly had an idea, she wanted to meet this girl, or more precisely, she wanted to integrate into this group!
