Chapter 852 852 Space City
Glory to the Dead is like a ray of light, and it will set off a frenzy in every city, from Los Angeles to San Francisco to Las Vegas, as everyone expected, Glory to the Dead set off a wave in the city of Seattle" The highest peak since the "Road to Glory" tour began.
Seattle, a city known as the grunge home base, has a strong musical atmosphere. It is a city that knows how to appreciate rock and roll, so the performance on the night of Glory to the Dead collided with Seattle, even the "alternative". "Choose", a magazine that has always been unpleasant to Glory to the death, also said sourly, "This is a night worth remembering", but the reasons for it were not expressed, which caused countless reverie.
Afterwards, the tour of Glory to the Dead was even more overwhelming, and the cities that were about to welcome the arrival of Glory to the Dead had already deeply felt the heat of midsummer, and each city embraced the revival of rock and roll with the highest enthusiasm.
Houston, Texas, is where the Johnson Aviation Center is located, and the mission monitoring center is also located here, because it is also known as the city of space, although it is one of the fastest growing large cities in the United States, but Because of the inheritance of its western culture and the special regional environment, the music atmosphere of this city has never been too strong.
Only when kings like Frank Sinatra and Clint. Black come here to hold concerts can they arouse the enthusiasm of the residents; singers with less appeal are often encountered in Houston. Ignore, especially rock, in a land that's crazy for cowboys and obsessed with country, it's not easy to get their approval.
All many fans will joke that only really good top bands are willing to accept the challenge of Houston, otherwise they will just bring their own shame.
When Glory to Death announced its itinerary, many people focused their attention on Houston and Dallas. The attendance rate of Glory to Death in these two cities once became a huge question, even in Los Angeles. After the ticketing boom in San Francisco, people are still worried about ticket sales in these two cities.
Glory to the Dead will perform on Tuesday and Wednesday this week at Houston's famous The. Cynthia. Woods. Mitchell. One of the most famous concert venues in the state, located in the suburbs of Houston, thirty miles from the city center.
Although the audience capacity of the Woodland Exhibition Hall is less than 20,000, the media generally believe that the difficulty of ticket sales is comparable to that of 30,000. But what is unexpected is that after the ticket sales started, it was announced that the tickets were sold out within seven days. From the perspective of the length of time alone, it was indeed a huge obstacle, but this is Houston, this is Texas, and it is possible to die of glory. Holding a concert at the Woodland Exhibition Hall and selling out the tickets early was a great feat, which aroused heated discussions in many media.
The "Houston Chronicle" even used "Glory to Death is Coming!" as the headline, reporting the news that a total of 39,000 tickets for the Woodland Exhibition Hall had been snapped up in two days. Noisy again.
Sally Hansen arrived in Houston in a hurry. In order to get into the hotel before the arrival of Glory, Sally and four new friends left Denver and ran all the way to the front of Glory. But even so, when Sally arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel (Four. Seasons. Hotel. Houston), she was still shocked by the spectacular scene in front of her.
The Four Seasons Hotel on Lamar Street (Lamar. Street) is one of the city's most high-end and top hotels. It is located in the center of the city, just two blocks from Compaq. Center, Compaq. Center This past season saw the NBA team the Houston Rockets win the first championship trophy in franchise history.
The developed transportation and prosperous neighborhoods nearby make the Four Seasons Hotel a unique advantage. The surrounding high-end restaurants and bars also make it a place for people with rich nightlife to enjoy at night. There are also outdoor squash and basketball courts not far away. Coupled with the swimming pool and gym inside the hotel, it is indeed the best place to stay when traveling and working.
Sally got out of the car at the gate of the Four Seasons Hotel, looked back at the young man sitting in the driver's seat and waved her hand with a smile, "Jason, thank you for giving me a ride, it's been a pleasant journey!" After the stranger who had known each other for less than twelve hours drove away, Sally turned to look at the noise in front of her.
At this time, the entrance of the Four Seasons Hotel was crowded, and there were at least 30 people wandering around the flower beds at the entrance. Their attire was similar, and they were basically just a simple backpack, plus a musical instrument at most. At this time, the people standing outside were smoking, enjoying the leisure of a cigarette, while dancing and discussing with the partners next to them.
The concierge of the hotel stood at the door and looked helplessly at the noise in front of him, but he couldn't drive away these guests. Although their smoking polluted the environment at the entrance of the hotel, at least they did not smoke in the hotel lobby. They have taken good care of the Four Seasons Hotel. . Therefore, the concierge can only stand in the same place with the eyes watching the nose and the nose watching the heart.
Such a lively scene has not been seen in several cities before, but I did not expect to experience the madness of fans in Houston, which really opened Sally's eyes.
"Sally, hurry up, go in and have a look, Adam and the others should have arrived." A girl standing next to him patted Sally's shoulder and ran forward uncontrollably. There were also two other girls. He quickly followed, and there was only one person left standing with Sally, not in a hurry.
The girl who spoke just now called herself Penny. Lane, and Sally knew it was definitely not her real name, because "Penny. Lane" was the name of a Beatles song. The name of an alley in Paul McCartney's hometown. This situation is not surprising. Sally has met many such people on this trip. She knows that these people have a unified name called "Flesh and Skin".
Sally started the trip from her first day of performance in Los Angeles, and as she said the last time she met Hugo, she just wanted to go through a frenzy like this. So when the Glory to the Dead tour schedule was arranged, she started planning the journey. She wanted to follow from Los Angeles all the way to New York. She wanted to participate in every performance of "Road to Glory". She wanted to be Companion on the journey of the Glory to the Dead tour.
Sally's mother, Jessica Hansen, was originally very opposed. After all, Sally was underage, but after hesitating, Jessica was persuaded by her daughter and finally agreed to the trip. But the only requirement is that Sally must keep the phone that Jessica specially purchased with her at all times to ensure smooth communication.
So, Sally set out on a journey.
Sally met Penny in San Francisco, and then she met Helena-Jenny in Seattle—apparently the name in the song "Hollywood's. In their eyes, the name "Sally" comes from "Don't. Look. Back. In. Anger", even if she says this is her real name, no one wants to believe it .
In Penny Lane's words, "Yeah, of course it's your real name. My name is Penny Lane, and trust me, it's on my driver's license." Penny actually showed Sally Got a driver's license with that name on it. Apparently, she thought that Sally, like her, was someone who had adoration etched into her bones.
If Lydia Summer hadn't told her later that the driver's license was fake, Sally would have believed it. Lydia is a loyal fan of Glory to Death, Sally met her in Los Angeles, but they didn't get together in San Francisco, Las Vegas, and then met in Seattle, and then they came together.
Lydia was one of the fans who ran on the first road tour with Death of Glory, and she knew many people including Melalyn Dixon, Kayla Cole, Liam Pinkman, Eli Kah Sway, Joshua Cranston—these are all well-known names among Glory to Death fans. Originally, Lydia went with Eli, Liam and the others, but it seems that later. There was a little awkwardness, so Lydia and Sally came together.
The name "Flesh and Bone" is what Lydia told Sally, and the so-called Flesh and Skin is to be with the rock band members. The bed is intended for fans who follow the tour.
Lydia said that Penny-Lan had been with the Tool Band before, so she knew the members of the Tool Band very well, and she had a close relationship with Adam Jones (Adam. Jones) - which is what Penny just mentioned. The "Adam" that arrived.
Penny is famous among many rock fans, because she is a typical flesh and blood. In order to get close to the rock band, she has followed the tour of Tools, Radiohead, and Rolling Eyes. This time she Targeted at the Glory to the Dead band. It just so happens that Death of Glory overlaps several cities with Tool, which started touring not long ago, so Petunia is just like a duck to water.
Until Sally saw Penny and Adam Jones in a bush. At the right time, she believed Lydia's words. At the same time, Sally also understood that the identity of "Penny-Lan" is actually Penny's mask. This mask not only has a name, but also an identity certificate and even her own personality. Therefore, Penny is firm. Believing that she is Penny Lan.
Lydia also said that Helena knew at a glance that she was a newcomer. She was obviously crazy for the glory of her death. She was much more immature than Penny, and her connections were very shallow. Purpose is not an easy task.
Watching the three women leave, Penny, Helena, and Sally Cinnamon, whom they had just met in Denver, from Stone Rose's 1987 single "Sally Cinnamon" , In order to distinguish her from Sally Hansen, everyone calls her Hinamon.
Lydia pulled Sally's right hand, "Sally, I'll go take a look, why do I think there are more than two bands here today, I just saw a few of Radiohead's flesh and blood."
Glory to the Dead, Tools, and Radiohead? Houston is really busy today.
