are you a cat

There are too many people in the music festival. Although there is still some time before the performance starts, the park is already full of people. Some are scattered around the surrounding pavilions, and some are resting on the lawn with inflatable sofa chairs. Of course, there are more The only ones were those who had been waiting in the center of the stage to watch the performance.

Although the performance hadn't started yet, everyone was already getting high with the opening music.The atmosphere at the scene was extremely enthusiastic, and when the performance officially started, it could only be described as a group of demons dancing wildly. The more enthusiastic the musicians sang on the stage, the higher the audience jumped.

The performance lasted from noon to night. There were seven or eight stages with different themes, and more than 100 groups of artists and musicians from home and abroad, which made people dazzled.

The musicians on the stage are unique, the drumbeats are intensive one after another, and the audience in the audience is also like crazy, singing and dancing with the deafening music. , has frantically waved the flag as a locomotive.

Both Sang Meng and Deng Suisui came here for their favorite bands, and they dispersed after entering the arena. Compared with Ye Chen, he is a quieter person, and if he stays in too noisy places for a long time, he will be a little nervous. restless.

When he practiced the piano when he was young, he listened mostly to classical music, but later on he stopped playing the daily playlist and basically listened to pop music. Although he listened to rock, he seldom listened to it, mainly because he felt that some hysterical roars were noisy to his ears.

Probably because he had expected this result long ago, Yechen didn’t follow the fans to squeeze under the stage. He chose a stage where there were not many people, found a seat in the back row, and took out his sketchbook from his bag. Observe all kinds of people.

Yechen drew several sketches, and was about to take a break, when he heard a blue-haired girl not far from him complaining to a friend: "I'm waiting until the flowers are gone, let's see when my monster band will come out! "

This is a stage for band selection. Compared with other band stages that already have a certain fan base and popularity, the number of audiences pales in comparison.

The blue-haired girl's friend glanced at the playlist in his hand: "Just pass the Toxic."

"Toxic?"

The blue-haired girl was probably familiar with the rock circle, and she was a bit disgusted when she heard the name of the band. She took the program list and looked at the performance lists of other stages in the same time period. She probably didn't like it, so she reluctantly said: "Then I will listen to Bar."

"I think Toxic's song is not bad, Sister Mu is so handsome." Her friend said.

The blue-haired girl said: "It's okay, mainly I think their songs are quite ordinary, and there is nothing that doesn't attract me."

The person next to him leaned over: "What kind of band is Toxic?"

There are all kinds of people who come to the music festival. Rock bands are relatively small in China. Some well-known bands in the circle cannot be named by ordinary people, let alone those small bands that are too vague.But it was troublesome to explain to outsiders, so the blue-haired girl said perfunctorily about a rock band.

After finishing speaking, he didn't want to talk to the boy next to him who was obviously talking to him, and turned to gossip with his friends: "Didn't it mean that Toxic is about to disband? There are a few LiveHouses where they often perform. I didn't see anyone when I went there before."

"If you disband, you won't come to Candy's band audition, right?"

As one of the largest music festivals on the domestic stage, Candy Music Festival has a reserved band selection stage every year, in order to push those underground bands that no one cares about to the fans.

Year after year, some music fans also fell in love with this feeling of digging for gold in the sand, and they might not be able to dig out a treasure band from the selection stage anytime.

There is a temporary rest room behind the stage, which is also a place for musicians to wait. The band that finished the previous performance is busy removing instruments from the stage with the help of the staff.

When Toxic and his group passed by the waiting area, the opposing captain raised his hand and patted Fang Wan on the shoulder.

The rock and roll scene is so big, and there are only these people who run underground bands. The bands basically know each other, and everyone comes here for the same purpose.

Fang Wan smiled and tapped the opponent's shoulder.

The selection stage of the Candy Music Festival is an important opportunity for underground bands who want to stand on a bigger stage to gain attention.But after leaving this stage, they are still unknown, and there are still many bands that have not made their debut.

After two band reorganizations, abandoning the original style label, standing in front of the door that is about to lead to the stage, both Fang Wan and Shen Mu gave birth to an unknown daze and uncertainty in their hearts.

Wen Zhihao sat cross-legged on the floor, although he didn't show any expression, his nervousness was revealed by beating the air with a drumstick.

The same goes for Shao Fan.

He, Wen Zhihao, and Xu Yuxing joined after the original members of Toxic quit. He didn't know the bitterness of chasing dreams for four consecutive years, but he knew that the whole family didn't understand the pain of not supporting and strongly opposing.

Everyone seemed to be reaching out to catch the beam of light in the dark, but at the same time there was a rope of unknown length around their necks when they couldn't catch up with the light.

When the rope ran to the end, he could only stand there and watch the light go further and further away.

The atmosphere in the rest room was solemn, only Xu Yuxing looked relaxed.

It's probably because he doesn't bear layers of pressure like other people. It's not that no one puts a string around his neck, but those things can't restrain him.

He is used to doing things recklessly, and he does things only by saying that I am willing, otherwise it would be impossible for him to go far away with a violin on his back and come back as soon as he said he would.

The host of the show is already making a brief announcement.

Hearing the sparse applause outside, Xu Yuxing swept over the silent teammates and stood up from the sofa first.

He chuckled lightly, and stretched out his left hand, which was not holding the violin, with a lazy tone as if he didn't regard today's performance as a big event at all.

"What are you afraid of?" Xu Yuxing said.

The three words that were light and fluttering fell heavily on the hearts of the four.

Shao Fan had always admired his brother, so he immediately jumped up with his arms raised.The remaining three people exchanged glances, all affected by Xu Yuxing's calmness as if it was just a daily training, they smiled and stretched out their fists.

Probably because he felt that his appearance as if he was facing a big enemy was really ridiculous, Shen Mu laughed at himself and said, "Yes, what are you afraid of?"

Left and right are nothing but dissolution, didn't the worst ending already be known?

Five fists collided together, and after cheering, Fang Wan took the lead in pushing open the door of the rest room.

There is darkness behind, so why be afraid of the light ahead.

The five members of the Toxic band stepped onto the stage to perform.

From the time Shen Mu came on stage, the somewhat quiet scene became more lively, with men and women cheering and whistling mixed together, and when Xu Yuxing, who was holding a violin, appeared on stage at the end, the atmosphere off the stage was pushed to its peak.

The blue-haired girl who was slightly disgusted just now was obviously shocked by the new lineup of Toxic: "I'm going! Is Toxic reorganized?"

Band reorganization is commonplace. Toxic has changed from a four-member team to a five-member team. It also added a keyboard player and a violinist who has a strong sense of conflict with rock, but these are not important to the girls off the stage.

The important thing is that the violinist is so handsome! ! ! ! !

"Fuck! First time I've seen such a punk violinist!"

"Ah, ah, ah, this is too handsome! He is so tall!"

"Uncle's old lady is in so many bands in China, it's the first time I've seen such a handsome guy! And he's a violinist! Is he really a model?"

"Damn! Isn't this the violinist who was on the hot search a while ago!"

Yechen opened his eyes slightly, and when Xu Yuxing walked into everyone's field of vision, he couldn't help standing up straight.

Xu Yuxing was too conspicuous.

No matter in terms of height and appearance, or the musical instruments he holds, under this combination, he is destined to be the center of everyone's attention.

Ye Chen looked at the stage from afar.He was far behind the crowd, so far away that he couldn't see Xu Yuxing's face clearly, but he still couldn't look away.

Just like the road show on the street.

The sky will be dark, in order to allow the audience to better see the band's performance, the organizers have already turned on the lights around the stage.

Xu Yuxing looked around the stage calmly. Under the strong light, he could only see the huge crowd. This was the first time he was on stage as a member of a rock band, and it was completely different from his performance at the National Opera House. .

The roars of the musicians on the other stage and the cheers of the audience off the stage floated faintly. The members took their positions and exchanged glances with each other while fiddling with the instruments.

Xu Yuxing moved his fingers and put the violin on his shoulders.

The discussion in the audience stopped in unison, and the violinist on the stage with a shaved yin and yang head slowly raised his bow, his wrist trembled slightly, and played a melodious and familiar tune.

Under the light, the man's beautiful fingers are holding a bow gracefully, and the butterfly's wings are fluttering on his wrist.

The clear sound of the violin touched the audience, and gradually calmed down everyone's mood after a restless day. When they closed their eyes, they almost thought they were listening to classical music in the concert hall.

Just when everyone was intoxicated, the man's eyes froze suddenly——

The music under the bow suddenly became stronger, the drums and bass bass swept in, entangled with the fierce and arrogant strings.

The wind gathers the rain and surges!

This sudden explosive music shocked the audience for a moment. After the hurricane passed, it stopped suddenly. The lead singer sang low and hoarsely and slid into the audience's ears in these few blank beats, and the bursting melody tore everything again.

The stunned audience became agitated as early as the melody swept again. They screamed, cheered, and boiled, and they fed back the most primitive physical reactions to the musicians on the stage.

I don’t know if it’s the intermission on the stage next door. More and more spectators are attracted. They roared with the lead singer, jumped and raised their arms to the stage, and even waved the flags of other bands to start the stage. train.Not only audiences and music fans were attracted by this frenzy, but also photographers and media who shuttled around the venue carrying long/guns and short cannons.

The half-hour performance was hearty, and everyone on the scene was immersed in this musical feast.

The violinist on the stage was reckless, playing the violin roughly with the rhythm of the music and the passionate tune without grace, and even broke the hairs on several bows abruptly.

But he didn't care.

Does Xu Yuxing like rock and roll?

Not to mention liking.

The only thing he likes is the violin.

He started to learn the piano at the age of three, and has won many awards at home and abroad. At a young age, he was the principal violinist of a well-known symphony orchestra in country X.If he keeps going on the road of classical music, sooner or later he will become a respected artist.

But in the concert hall and on the stage of the opera house, he may be able to see the audience's obsession with music, but it is absolutely impossible to see the indulgence and madness of the audience.

Xu Yuxing likes this feeling of looking down, he enjoys the pleasure of others losing their minds driven by his music.

Music is free, and so is the violin.

Everyone here is.
