Five Hundred and Twenty-Three Deja Vu

Music festivals are often full of crowds and crowds, and the performances are often performed by different singers at the same time, so generally music festivals are divided into multiple stages, such as the Coachella Music Festival has four stages, one of which is the main stage, The other three are all secondary stages.

The difference lies in location, space and equipment.

Undoubtedly, the main stage is the one with the best treatment, the largest stage, the largest seating space for the audience, and the best supporting equipment; in addition, the performance time is also the longest, and the opening and closing performances of the day are held here— —At the same time period as the opening and closing, the other three stages are not performing, ensuring that all audiences' attention is focused on the main stage, truly shrouded in the spotlight.

Naturally, everyone who can take the main stage is a big name.

In addition to the stage, there are three days before and after the music festival, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and the daily schedule of performances is also different—that’s why the music festival sells daily single-day tickets, and some fans make a special trip for One or several singers come and buy a single-day ticket for one of the days.

Therefore, the schedule is also very important.

On the whole, the farther back, the more lively. On the one hand, because the first Friday, many fans are often unable to ask for leave, so skipping Friday is a reasonable choice.

On the other hand, if you buy a single-day ticket, the crowd tends to reach its peak on Saturday, which is in the middle of the schedule, and there are relatively few on Friday and Sunday. Among them, Sunday is the last day of the music festival, and the carnival atmosphere reaches its climax , is equally important.

Of course, these are relative terms. The three-day music festival is a godsend, and every day is full of excitement.

But the objective fact is that the time and venue arrangement of the performance will indeed affect the number and enthusiasm of the audience.

One day the king was scheduled to appear on the first day, and it was at two o'clock in the afternoon - that is, the hottest and scorching time of the day in the desert. Standing in the sun for 30 minutes may take off a layer of skin That, and the timing was really bad; it turned out they weren't on the main stage yet, but on stage three.

Although it is said that it is not Stage 4, but Stage 3, in fact, Stage 3 has a wider venue and a relatively remote location; Stage 4 is smaller, but it is closer to the main passage.

Imagine, at two o'clock in the afternoon, how could it be possible to "travel long distances" to the remotest stage No. 3 if it wasn't for fanatical and diehard fans?

If it is stage No. 4, the passing audience may also stop because of the excellent performance of the king for a day,

To attract more passerby fans, but now they are thrown into the wilderness like being exiled. The plan to attract passerby fans by virtue of their performances will face more challenges.

These invisible details are really very important for a star-studded occasion like a music festival, and audiences who just "participate" through the social networking platform can't experience it at all. Only when they really feel the heat and travel long distances audience can understand.

Facing Josh's question, Sophie and Mark explained the situation in detail one by one, but they didn't know anything about it. They didn't really feel these invisible problems until they arrived at the scene, and then everyone They couldn't help looking at each other, and now they finally understood the reason for Melissa's anger.

Melissa spread her hands, "You say, how can I not be angry?"

"But why?" Danny couldn't understand, "We didn't offend anyone else." The "we" here refers to the band.

Melissa shook her head, "In Vanity Fair, people don't need to offend others to feel oppressed, because Vanity Fair itself is full of competition and fighting, even if there is no hatred, as long as they stand on the same stage, the news media and social networks will carry on. Compare, and then it becomes a Colosseum."

"No need to offend anyone, because competition is inherent."

"The music festival is sure that we have a small fan base, so we give priority to those singers who 'meet market expectations', and our band is just leftovers."

Melissa said angrily, but the strong smell of gunpowder could still be felt in her words.

Although Melissa's point of view is biased, at least one point is correct. In Vanity Fair, many competitions are not what the parties want to see or experience, but they are all involuntary, almost in the posture of being kidnapped Put in the spotlight and forced into competition.

Because the audience wants to see "fighting"-like the Colosseum in ancient Rome,

The same goes for Coachella.

Even if the king didn't offend anyone for a day, but they stood on the stage of the music festival, the competition had already started:

How much audience can the band attract and how much benefit can it create? How many topics can the band create and how much peripheral sales can be driven? What level of performance can the band dedicate and how much traffic can it generate on social networks? Where does the band stand compared to other singers?

Everything has already started a long time ago, and has nothing to do with the will of the king for a day.

Not hatred, just interest.

Obviously, the one-day kings who really rose after the Grammy awards ceremony have a weaker fan base than Shine and Joy. Being able to attend the Coachella Music Festival is already an unimaginable surprise treatment, comparable to Take a rocket ride, but don't expect more.

Even the King for a Day now has Billboard’s number one single and number one album—even higher than the Shining Band, but the Shining Band has had a whole year of promotion and publicity, compared to the Grammys. The one-day king who takes the lead still has a clear advantage.

What's more, when the Coachella Music Festival arranged the performance schedule, One Day King didn't have a champion single yet.

In a trance, something familiar happened again. From the full moon party to the Grammy awards ceremony, the kings for a day are always dark horses. They must continue to work hard, fight, and fight from the bottom. Prove yourself show yourself.

From a negative point of view, the Grammys still seem to have not changed anything; however, from a positive point of view, the rising momentum of the one-day kings is rocket-like. The trumpets are forced to compete in the full-level banquet of the 60th level. It is precisely because of this that they need to constantly prove themselves, otherwise they may be swallowed by the dazzling starlight at any time.

The simplest and most intuitive thing is that the one-day king was not qualified to appear here at all, but the Grammy has become the key to turning the situation around.

From this point of view, the one-day king is now facing such a situation-this can be regarded as a good thing, and it is also a challenge that must be faced on the road of continuous ascent. So, how should they deal with it?
