These three bands, if you really want to talk about it, you can also have something to do with it.

Explosion 㢨スランプ (slump) and DREAMS COME TRUE belong to the same label of the same record company.,It's a record company old-timer.。

The band that has been active since 1982 deserves a sentence of old-timers. However, although they are in the same record company, they don't know each other at all, and this is the first time they have met.

Compared with the same record company, it is actually the same firm, so there can be the so-called "love of the same society".

By the way, the old acquaintance band Mimi Club of Shinichi Iwahashi and the heavy metal band Holy Hunger II are collectively known as the "Three Great Vaudeville Bands of Sony".

Mimi CLUB's stage style has long been understood, and Holy Hunger II describes himself as "all kinds of demons from hell", with gorgeous clothes and makeup, and is keen to wreak havoc on stage and scare the audience.

Being able to say with such two bands,Bursting Wind スランプ (slump) is naturally not left behind when juggling.,Enthusiastic and unrestrained during the performance.,Live performances on the stage are also commonplace.。

Juggling skills are quite full.

Anyway, the name can be wrong, but the nickname is always accurate.

Because it's a juggling band, at the same time as getting an invitation from NHK, Slump was also banned from messing around on the live broadcast of the Red and White Song Club.

As for the other band, TM NETWORK, they are signed by EPIC Sony, and are cousins of DREAMS COME TRUE and EXPLOSION WIND スランプ (slump).

They started their activities in 1984, and in front of these two bands, DREAMS COME TRUE was pitifully young, and according to the rules of the entertainment industry that they were not allowed to eat potato chips in front of their predecessors, they were the only ones in this lounge who were not qualified to practice fingering.

Thus, despite being "under the same roof", NHK's idea is pure wishful thinking.

Of course, the TV station itself knows it.

However, all three bands have appeared in the Red and White Song Club for the first time since their debut, and from this point of view, DREAMS COME TRUE, which has the least seniority, is the fastest rising.

And from the old bands in the early years have begun to shine, and the new bands have accelerated their rise, so it seems that the era of bands has indeed begun to come.

Slump doesn't like to talk much, and the members silently occupy a corner of the lounge, smoking cigarettes, and debugging instruments - before smoking, they also asked the three people of DREAMS COME TRUE, "Can I smoke?"

I DIDN'T ASK TM NETWORK, PROBABLY BECAUSE HE HAD BEEN IN THE SAME BREAK ROOM BEFORE.

The answer to the trio of the band was naturally "please".

After the person who burst the wind スランプ (slump) lit the cigarette, the person from TM NETWORK also took out the cigarette case. Lead singer Takashi Utsunomiya handed a cigarette to Brother Nakamura and looked at Miwa-chan again.

There are many female lead singers who smoke......

However, Miwa-chan quickly refused, "Thank you, I don't smoke." ”

Takashi Utsunomiya took back the cigarette case, and finally looked at Shinichi Iwahashi with a smile, "Giraffe-kun doesn't seem to be able to do anything"

The hood is quite a hindrance.

Shinichi Iwahashi also thanked him for his kindness.

At this time, Tetsuya Komuro on the side interjected, "Do you have to wear the giraffe-kun's hood all the time?"

Tetsuya Komuro is a beautiful man who looks very chic, different from the slightly melancholy literary and artistic youth temperament of Takashi Utsunomiya who was talking just now, and the whole person looks sharp.

However, this gentleman is indeed a great talent. Before TM NETWORK became popular, in 1986, he first made his debut as a composer with "My Revolution" written to Misato Watanabe.

"Yes. Iwahashi Shinichi replied.

At this time, from the side of the explosion wind スランプ (slump), a sentence floated over: "It's similar to His Excellency Twilight of Holy Hunger Demon II." ”

I don't know who said it, but as soon as I said this, everyone in the lounge except for Shinichi Iwahashi and Miwa-chan smiled knowingly.

It's about the same, but it's far from it.

The lead singer of Holy Hunger Demon II, Lord Twilight, claims to be the leader of the Demon Sect, and he will never change the image and makeup of "Lord Demon Twilight" for thousands of years, never allowing outsiders to see his true appearance.

In the matter of maintaining the persona, Iwahashi Shinichi sent him 108,000 miles.

Joke about the past, the slump continues to return to their small circle, but TM NETWORK, taking the opportunity to chat with DREAMS COME TRUE.

When we sit down with musicians we don't know well, we talk about music the most.

The TM NETWORK on the other side are all professional musicians, and when they talk about music, they also speak more professional words, and when it comes to this time, Miwa-chan can't get into the topic, so she listens honestly and goes to see Shinichi Iwahashi from time to time.

Seeing her small movements, Tetsuya Komuro showed a subtle smile and casually quipped, "The lead singer and Giraffe-kun have a good relationship." ”

He spoke directly enough.

However, Shinichi Iwahashi can feel that Tetsuya Komuro's directness is not because he has any "straightforward" attributes, but a kind of casualness that can say whatever he wants.

I said what I wanted to say, and I didn't care what others thought. In a way, it's a bit of a blind sight.

This person has a kind of arrogance of a talent, but when he talks like this, he is also a talented person who is relatively easy to offend people.

Miwa-chan is a bit rough, but not stupid, and I can hear the voice of Tetsuya Komuro.

Without thinking, she answered Tetsuya Komuro before Shinichi Iwahashi answered, "It's the guardian." ”

"Haha!"

Tetsuya Komuro laughed at this answer, "So your band still has such a setting?"

THE OTHER TWO PEOPLE AT TM NETWORK ALSO REACTED WITH A "SO IT IS" RESPONSE. It seems to have interpreted Miwa-chan's words as if she was the guardian of the giraffe.

“......”

Iwahashi Shinichi was speechless, and Miwa-chan was a little complacent about his robbery. Looking at this look, I feel that I have taken this opportunity to avenge the "one-arrow revenge" that Iwahashi Shinichi always said was her guardian.

However, her smugness lasted only a few seconds.

"The people of Holy Hunger II claim to be demons from hell and will disband back to hell when the last second of 1999 is over and they have completed their goal of conquering the world. Where are you from?"

The explosion wind over there (slump) ended the coldness again.,Throw a sentence.。

Iwahashi Shinichi suddenly had a feeling that the explosion wind スランプ (slump) is not cold, it is a cold death that does not pay for life - telling cold jokes and cold death does not pay for life.

He turned his head to look at Miwa-chan, wanting to hear how she was going to end. Miwa-chan pretended not to notice that the giraffe's head turned to her, and looked at Brother Nakamura again as if nothing happened, trying to throw the pot at Brother Nakamura.

However, Brother Nakamura didn't plan to take this pot.

"I'll go to the bathroom. ”

Iwahashi Shinichi took the opportunity to slip away first, leaving the little fox to face the pit he had dug himself.

......

Next to the band's lounge is a large lounge with a Hikari Genji name tag.

Shinichi Iwahashi came out of the bathroom and walked back, and the door of Hikari's lounge opened suddenly, and someone rushed out of it, almost colliding with him.

"I'm so sorry!" the boy bowed his head to him.

The backstage corridor of the concert venue should also follow the example of the school and put up a big warning sign saying "no running in the corridor". Iwahashi Shinichi frowned, complaining in his heart as he went to see who was so reckless.

At first glance, it was a boy who was only eleven or twelve years old.

Dressed in bells and whistles, it looks like a performance costume produced by Genesys, and eighty percent is JR who came to dance with him this time.

The GENJI team alone has a crowd tactic, and there are seven official members alone. Each has its own characteristics, and there is always one among the seven people you like.

In addition to the official members, every time they perform, they bring a group of JR Genesys as backup dancers.

This is also Kitagawa's shrewdness. Let the trainees with high hopes go to dance with the seniors who are popular, get the camera on the TV, and if the audience likes it, they will call the office to ask, and hope that the trainees they like will make their debut earlier.

In this way, before his debut, he first accumulated popularity.

It's a bit like a band that first performed in the underground music scene and then made its mainstream debut - because of the popularity of previous performances, the sales of their debut albums are often okay.

Hikari GENJI came to the Red and White Song Party this year as well, and came with a backup dance. Every time they act together, it is spectacular to watch.

......

"I'm so sorry!"

The boy apologized and straightened up, trying to see who he had bumped into. As a result, when I looked up, I couldn't help but be stunned,...... Giraffe?

What mess?

In the rest room, the seniors of Hikari Genji took the JR people they brought, running errands to buy sodas, getting wet towels for a while, and asking them to see the progress outside, and then going back to report to them.

After Hikari Genji became popular, they did their best to play tricks on the JRs who danced with them.

However, just as the school's sports club bullies newcomers, the teacher doesn't think it's wrong for seniors to bully juniors, and adults in the arts world also think that it's JR's duty to bully JR with GENJI.

The culture of bullying is part of this culture, and from school to the workplace, the entertainment industry is naturally not exempt.

JUST NOW, THE STARS OF GUANGGENJI AND HIS PREDECESSORS TEASED HIM, AND SAID THAT HE DIDN'T WANT TO DRINK SODA, HE WANTED TO DRINK OOLONG TEA, AND SENT HIM TO RUN ERRANDS, AND HE FOUND A TIMER OUT OF NOWHERE, SAYING THAT IF HE COULDN'T SEND IT WITHIN FIVE MINUTES, HE WOULD LOOK GOOD.

The boy was only eleven years old and was still a primary school student.

was scolded and beaten, and there was only one idea to rush out. As a result, as soon as I went out, I hit someone.

Giraffe-san didn't speak, couldn't see his face, didn't know if he was angry. The giraffe seems to be a member of DREAMS COME TRUE, and if he bumps into a singer who comes to participate in the Red and White Song Party, he will definitely be scolded.

However, if you don't hurry up, when you buy oolong tea, the seniors of Zhuxing will definitely scold him for being stupid and throw things at him......

The boy was half scared and half anxious, and his mouth was curled, but at least he knew how to endure and not cry.

......

A child, not on purpose, apologized sincerely enough.

Besides, the backstage of the Red and White Song Meeting, more things are better than less things, and Iwahashi Shinichi also counts, "Don't run around in the corridor, pay attention to safety." ”

In front of children, if you are not careful, you will become a middle-aged person's kiss.

"Yes, I'm sorry!" said the little boy again.

Shinichi Iwahashi didn't answer again, walked past Hikari Genji's lounge, and opened the door to the shared lounge. ...... I don't know how Miwa-chan coped with the pit she dug herself.

DREAMS COME TRUE'S GIRAFFE-SAN DIDN'T PURSUE ANYTHING, IT'S SO NICE...... The boy breathed a sigh of relief and was about to continue rushing forward, but was stopped again.

"Shen Wujun, what's wrong?"

Coming up was Takuya Kimura, who was in the same group as him and was also dancing with him.

Takuya Kimura is four years older than him, and he is a reliable and calm big brother. Even if he was supported by the seniors of Hikari GENJI, although he was obedient and did what he was told, he was neither humble nor arrogant in his momentum, and he never fell behind.

Because of this, Zhuxing and his predecessors hated him very much, but they couldn't do anything about him.

Compared to him, Shingo Katori, who is only eleven years old, is very weak, afraid of being bullied, and can run faster than anyone else.

"If the seniors of the stars want to drink oolong tea, they will be sent over in five minutes. ”

At the mention of business, Shingo Katori was a little flustered.

"You can't do it in five minutes, Shen Wujun. Takuya Kimura didn't think twice. looked at him, "I'll go with you, slowly walk to the vending machine to buy it, and then tell the stars seniors that what can't be done is what can't be done." ”

Takuya Kimura supported him, and Shingo Katori didn't seem to be afraid.

"The hallways are full of people, and it's rude and unsafe to run around. ”

"Hmm. Shingo Katori was honest and obedient, and told him, "Actually, when I came out just now, I bumped into the giraffe-san of DREAMS COME TRUE." ”

Takuya Kimura looked at him.

Shingo Katori hurriedly added, "I've apologized." Speaking of which, he smirked as if relieved, "However, the giraffe mulberry is very good, not angry, and told me to pay attention to safety and not to run around." ”

"As a result, as soon as the giraffe Mulberry left, you forgot what he said. ”

Shingo Katori's face turned red.

"Therefore, it is even more important to walk over and buy it slowly, and not to live up to the gentleness of the giraffe mulberry. Takuya Kimura sensed his embarrassment and relieved him.

The two teenagers walked forward together.

......

On Chinese New Year's Eve, the family gathers for Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

Set up the carefully prepared Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, and in the second half of the dinner, I almost turned on the TV, first changed the TV station to TBS, and prepared to watch the next record awards.

Watching the record awards, and then watching the red and white song party, this is my Chinese New Year's Eve routine.

"This year's big award, I don't know which singer it will be awarded to. "A family of four in front of the TV, eating and chatting at the same time.

"If GENJI participates, the grand prize will definitely be theirs. ”

The person who said this was the older sister of a family of four, who was in junior high school and was a big fan of Hikari GENJI.

That's right, just GENJI alone occupies the top three of the singles chart this year, which is a feat that no one of the previous singers can do.

is obviously a phenomenal super idol, but he didn't win the award.

"It's a pity that because of matchy, Janis has withdrawn from the awards. Dad's tone was a little gloating.

My sister puffed out her cheeks, "Kondo is the most annoying!"

Fans of Hikari GENJI probably unanimously thought so at the end of the year.

If it weren't for Masahiko Kondo, GENJI alone would have won the grand prize...... The frustration that has nowhere to vent is all angry with Kondo Masahiko. He not only offended the industry, offended fans and passers-by, but also made the fans of his younger generations hate him to the core.

It can be said to be the first in the entertainment industry.
