007. Spiritual Victory
The backstage space of the platter concert is cramped, and the lights are very bright, to the point of dazzling.
Young men and women in different shapes of clothing huddle together, and the backstage is full of different appearances, such as hardcore figures in leather jackets, beautiful figures painted with visual makeup, or fashionable outfits in tight jackets with exaggerated shoulder pads.
If you stay here, no matter who is next to whom, you won't be able to tell which one is "LOVE UNLIMITED" and which one is "Akasaka Komachi".
Many people with strong personalities gather here. And people with similar personalities form their own circles.
A few people stood in a small circle against the wall and protected the two girls, Masashi Amaya and Takuji Sakamoto (crossed out) Emi Hakata. The wounded Minako Ishii was absent.
When they came backstage, the show had already begun, and they could hear the singers in front of them and the cheers of the audience. It's clear, but it's also a mushy stroke.
The first time he entered the underground world, Iwahashi looked at everything and felt fresh, and curiously looked at the strange musicians nearby who used hairspray to make their hair stand on end.
At this time, he happened to be noticed by the subject who was secretly observing, and he quickly withdrew his gaze, and as soon as he lowered his head, Amaya Masashi curled his lips and showed a mischievous smile that had seen everything.
"Interesting, right?" she asked.
"It was an eye-opener tonight. "Iwahashi Shinichi is not pretending.
Maori Amaya has already changed into the costume for the performance, and the exaggerated ruffles in the Victorian style are said to have been made by Minako Ishii herself. It is worthy of the big touch of graduating from a fashion college.
"It's good enough. He said. In every sense of the word.
"You're also imposing, but ......"
"But?"
But Tiangu Zhenli only said half of what he said, and the other half hid it himself.
Tentani-san, you know what. Every time you sell a pass, you kill a curious cat. There is no buying and selling, there is no killing. To love life, please start by having something to say.
Shinichi Iwahashi stared into her eyes, waiting for her answer. Under the beautiful eyelids of Amaya Masa, the clean eyes rippled with the smile of a girl. It also contains a firmness that must not be confided.
If she gives up this trend-chasing instant noodle head, she will be a delicate girl. Shinichi Iwahashi suddenly thought nonsensically.
After half past seven, Mimi Club was called to the corridor to wait.
After waiting for a while, the band in front of them took the stage, and they moved to the side of the stage again. Iwahashi stood at the position of Shin's position, and if he leaned forward a little, he could get a glimpse of the situation ahead.
He did indeed glance forward quickly. The stage is similar to what you imagined, like an unremarkable venue that you will find when you accidentally break into the basement of a shopping mall.
There were no seats between the stage and the audience, and the audience stood in an orderly manner to cheer for the band that had just appeared on the stage.
"Everyone in the audience has fans, right?" said Shinichi Iwahashi with a stupid remark.
Ishii Ryu also replied: "What's more, I don't know anything, buy a ticket and come over to join in the fun." β
With five minutes to go, the last band's performance was over, and the host took the stage.
Iwahashi Shin'ichi turned his face and saw Amaya Masori drawing the word "human" on his palm with his finger, and then put his palm to his mouth, making it look like he was swallowing something.
"What is this doing?" Iwahashi asked her.
"Writing 'person' in the palm of your hand and swallowing it will relieve tension. Don't you know Iwahashi-san?"
"I don't know. Iwahashi shook his head. Spiritual Victory Method?
"When I was a child, my grandmother taught me, and it really worked. Masashi Amaya invited him, "Iwahashi-san will do it with me?"
Iwahashi Shinichi smiled wryly, "I? β
After the A section of "sΓ»re danse" ended, Shinichi Iwahashi and Masashi Amaya took the stage at the right time. The band's performance has already set the mood up, and as soon as they enter the stage, they are greeted by the enthusiasm of the audience.
Mimi CLUB, the band, is quite popular among the audience with some surprises, and from time to time in the audience, a few voices float up from time to time shouting the nickname of the lead singer Ryuya Ishii.
BANDMAN is a popular group, and after the evening performance, pick up a female fan with an eye to go for a drink, unless you don't talk specifically to make the atmosphere freeze, otherwise most of them will not miss.
In this band, Ryuya Ishii, who is good-looking, speaks well, is talented, and coquettish enough, twists his waist from time to time to interact with the audience, and almost single-handedly contracts most of the team's popularity of the opposite sex.
This kind of lead singer is to be surrounded by his teammates for love torture.
But in Iwahashi's opinion, the most interesting thing is the occasional shout of "Megumi Ko!"
Whenever he heard someone shouting his name, Emi Hakata (Takuji Sakamoto) would take a second or two from the performance, learning the way idols (IDOL) interacted, waving his hands, kicking his legs, and selling cute.
"Kawaii ββ!!"
Immediately after that, such shouts will follow.
It is worthy of being a women's clothing boss who brings hopes and dreams to mankind.
Having already rehearsed many dances, Shinichi Iwahashi has the confidence to jump down perfectly. While enjoying the cheers that didn't belong to him, he danced in harmony with the rhythm and Mari Amatani.
The supporting role of the temporary cameo, if you want to dominate the crowd, I am afraid that the only way to suddenly get a broadcast accident is to do it. Of course, there will be no such sassy operation. Supporting roles must have the consciousness of supporting roles. Proper and Maori Amatani cooperate with each other to dance the dance completely, that's all.
After the end of "Romantic Flight", before leaving, Ryu Ishii also introduced to the audience: "DANCER: Shinichi, MARY-"
AMATANI MASATO'S NAME IS PRONOUNCED "MARI", BECAUSE THE JAPANESE PRONUNCIATION OF "R" IS "L", SO IT IS THE SAME "γγͺ" AS THE KING OF FIGHTERS MARY, AND THIS NICKNAME IS EASY TO UNDERSTAND. As for Shinyi, it is even less necessary to explain.
"Ohββ!!" the audience responded enthusiastically.
This time, Iwahashi Shinichi was sure that one of the cheers was for him. It's a pity that he can't have a container for him to collect and store the cheers he gets.
Back backstage, Shinichi Iwahashi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's over?" he thought to himself. There is a kind of relief of unburdening, and a bit of emptiness after the carnival.
Maori Amaya was in a good mood, "Good work, Iwahashi-san!"
Shinichi Iwahashi smiled at her.
Just as he was about to speak, a sentence floated from the side: "I said ......"
In the hallway, the waiting band stood where they had just been. A young man pulled down his sunglasses and asked casually, "What kind of style is your band?"
Shinichi Iwahashi and Masashi Amaya turned their faces to him almost at the same time.
"Sorry, just asking. I just don't think this kind of typhoon is like a band......" The young man jokingly threw out another question: "Are you imitating idols?"
Imitate idols.
This statement made Amaya Masashi look defensive.
There's a strange atmosphere in the underground music scene that there's always a part of the population that scoffs at commercial things. The real Artiste is to fight the mainstream with flesh and blood, and trample the superficial pop under his feet -
So much so that the word "big sell" is regarded as a sarcastic word in some underground bands.
Bands that use the word to belittle people will also see idols who can only squeamishly sing unnutritious pop songs provided by composers, bouncing and dancing on stage to entertain people without connotation, as the bottom of the chain of contempt.
To say that their style is imitating idols is a bit unkind.
Shinichi Iwahashi, who just came into contact with this circle today, didn't know that he was also playing music, and that there was still such a chain of contempt, and the cultural environment in his previous life had no such prejudice against idols.
However, although he could not understand the deep things, he could still hear the good or bad tone of the young man's words.
Out of politeness, Iwahashi thought about it and felt that since the pursuit of visual impact is called "visual kei", then they have been implementing the form of "performance" from beginning to end......
In a serious tone, he casually made up a word and told him: "Acting Department." We are a performance band. β
"What?" the young man was stunned. I didn't expect this guy to really say something.
Shinichi Iwahashi deliberately showed a look of regret, "Haven't you heard this kind of performance? That's a pity." β
Maori Amaya next to him couldn't hold back and laughed.
