The matter of the hip-hop dance team came to an end for the time being, and Xiao Yao's focus naturally shifted to the band. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info A week is not long, but it is not short. The song "Immortals" was originally practiced by everyone, and with a week of concentrated assault strengthening, Xiao Yao was confident that he should be able to cope with the warm-up performance of the "Daydream" Los Angeles concert.

Of course, rehearsals are just technical preparations, as long as you take the time to practice. As for psychological preparation, Xiao Yao has nothing to do. The "Daydream" Los Angeles concert was a big scene with thousands of spectators. Now even Xiao Yao himself was a little apprehensive before he took the stage, not to mention the other people in the band who had not seen many big scenes.

"Young, I'm nervous!" Dean said to Xiao Yao with a nervous look on his face in the backstage lounge. Invisibly, Xiao Yao has already become the backbone of this band.

"I can tell," Xiao Yao smiled reluctantly, "it's not just you, you all have the word 'nervous' written on your faces." But it's normal, it's just the first time the band has experienced this kind of big scene. ”

"But what about you?" Dean looked at Xiao Yao who was smiling, "It's your first time, why don't you look nervous at all." ”

"I'm just covering it up better, you see. Xiao Yao smiled bitterly and spread out his hands clenched into fists, the sweat in his palms was clearly visible.

"Ha, why am I not so nervous when I see you. Dean laughed.

"Me too. George and Mike echoed in unison, and Sarmien nodded approvingly, though he didn't speak.

"You..." Xiao Yao rolled his eyes, then pretended to be particularly nervous, and began to circle around the lounge, "Oh my God, I'm about to go on stage, what should I do?" I'm so nervous, I feel like I'm about to faint." No, I'm going to the bathroom to vomit for a while..."In the end, Xiao Yao began to fan his face with his palm.

"Enough, you're acting too fake. Dean and the other three interrupted Xiao Yao with a smile. After such a fuss, everyone's tension was relieved a lot.

"Are you ready?" Keith Craig pushed the door open and walked in, greeting to the rest room, "the time is almost up. ”

"Ready, ready to go on stage. Xiao Yao opened his mouth to answer Keith Dao.

"Good. Keith Craig nodded, then asked, "Are you nervous about performing in front of so many people for the first time?"

"That's a terrible question," Xiao Yao glanced at Keith and sighed, "Of course we're nervous. It's just been a little bit easier, and when you ask now, the tension returns. ”

"It's okay," Keith smiled nonchalantly, "I actually want to tell you that it doesn't matter how nervous you are now, when you get on stage and start performing, you don't care about being nervous." Believe me, I have experience. ”

"I hope so. Xiao Yao nodded.

"Alright, let's go on stage. Keith clapped his hands and greeted.

Several members of the band followed Keith out of the break room and onto the stage from the back of the side through the aisle. As soon as they walked out of the passage, they heard a huge noise, and the scene of thousands of people was indeed not covered.

It's time for the concert to start, the audience has basically arrived, and all the preparations are made on the stage. Keith walked directly to the standing microphone at the front of the stage, and Xiao Yao and the others walked to their instruments.

Sarmien sat behind the drum kit, Mike stood in front of the electronic keyboard, and Xiao Yao and George carried their guitars and bass, respectively. As for Dean, who didn't have a musical instrument, he stood by Xiao Yao's side, and had nothing to do to help Xiao Yao adjust the microphone pole in front of him, which had already been adjusted in height.

"Good evening, everyone!" Keith said loudly as he walked over to the microphone, "Thank you all for coming." ”

As the high-powered horns carried Keith's voice throughout the venue, the audience knew that the concert was about to officially begin, and immediately there was a tsunami of cheers.

"Thank you," Keith said, thanking the audience for their enthusiasm, "I'm so happy to tell you that we've had a band that has been very popular lately as our opening guest for tonight's concert, and they are—" Keith concluded, palming his hand to his ear and making a gesture of listening.

"Immortals!" the audience shouted very cooperatively.

A week after the release of "TeenageVigilantes", the official studio version of the song "Immortals" appeared on several major music websites in the United States, and the song began to hit the radio charts on music radio shows in the United States. Now that the movie has been released for more than three weeks, it is almost finished. After more than half a month of publicity, the student band Immortals and their song "Immortals" have become quite well-known.

"Yes," Keith nodded, apparently pleased with the audience's response, and then exclaimed, "This band is making their first public appearance tonight, and I think to most people they are still mysterious, so allow me to introduce them to you." ”

"Beautiful female drummer, Sarmyne!" followed Keith's voice, and a close-up of Sarmien was given on the big screen of the scene.

"Cool!" exclaimed the audience.

The image of Sarmien today is very special. Half of the hair on the head was loosely draped on the right side of the head and right shoulder in the same long, straight hair, and the other half was braided into several small braids hanging down on the other side. This image comes from Xiao Yao's handwriting, which fully expresses Samion's usual cold, drumming but passionate duality. This peculiar and characterful hairstyle, combined with Samion's delicate and beautiful face, immediately surprised many audiences.

And with the audience's exclamations, it was Samion's solo playing drums, which made Samion even cooler when he moved, and also made the audience instantly remember this girl who looked full of personality.

"Keyboardist, Mike!" Keith continued after Sarmien's solo was over. The big screen also switches to a close-up of Mike. Mike also came to a piece of the keyboard solo that Xiao Yao had prepared for him.

Mike is also well-dressed, but compared to Sarmyon, he looks a little more ordinary, and the audience's reaction is not as great as when they see Sarnyon. The same situation also appeared with George and Dean, especially Dean, who naturally had no solo to perform without musical instruments, so he could only take the microphone in front of Xiao Yao and shout "Hello everyone!" to the audience, although it was also echoed by the cheers of the audience below, but it was far worse than Sarmeon.

It wasn't until Xiao Yao was introduced that the following reaction became more enthusiastic.

"Guitarist, Yang from Huaxia!" Keith said in a loud voice, casually pointing out Xiao Yao's origin.

A close-up of Xiao Yao was cut out on the big screen. Unlike the other team members, who looked cool but were actually nervous to the point of being a little stiff, Xiao Yao had a gentle and confident smile on his face, coupled with his absolutely handsome Chinese face, which caused many female viewers in the audience to scream.

After Xiao Yao's same cool guitar solo, Keith's task is basically completed. Finally, Keith announced in a loud voice, "Now please enjoy your Immortals performance." With a word introducing the band and song names, Keith turned to the side and waved, then walked briskly off the stage.

Dean took a few steps forward and stepped into the same position as Keith, reaching out and holding the pole of the standing microphone. Then he turned his head to look at Sarmien at the back, and nodded to signal that he was ready to start.

Sarmien nodded in acknowledgement, then raised his drumsticks with both hands and began to strike at each other. After four beats, Mike's keyboard sound was accurate, and after eight beats, Sarmyon's drum beat was added accurately, and then Dean, who was beating the beat with his feet closed, also sang the first main song correctly, and the sound and rhythm were no problem.

There is no problem with the prelude at the beginning, Dean did not lose his voice or go out of tune when he spoke, Xiao Yao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the long-term practice is still effective, although everyone is nervous, but there is still no problem in grasping the rhythm. Since it has made a good start, it should not be too likely to make mistakes in the next part of everyone's habitual nature, and the rest is to enliven the atmosphere, fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the audience, and "warm" the scene.

After opening his mouth and singing two sentences, Dean suddenly relaxed, and naturally opened his eyes and looked at the crowd in front of him. It seems that Keith is right, after starting to perform, he naturally doesn't get nervous.

"TeenageVigilantes" has already grossed over 100 million at the North American box office, and the theme song "Immortals" has been in the top 20 on Billboard since it began to be available for download and radio charts, so there are many people who have heard this song, but it is definitely the first time for most people to listen to their live performance.

Although the band was singing, some of the corresponding highlights from the movie "TeenageVigilantes" were shown on the big screen at the scene. This is a reminder that this song is the theme song of the movie, which not only enriches the live performance of the band, but also adds to the box office of the movie that is about to be drawn. Many viewers who watched the movie let out a burst of screams and cheers when they saw the familiar movie images, but most of the audience at the scene focused on the band's live performance.

The band's full participation in singing was noticeably higher when performing live, with all the band members repeating the words at the end of a single lyric and the chorus of the chorus with a tonal change of "immooo... Immortals" greatly enhanced the song's appeal to the audience.

The configuration of the two lead singers is not simple, each of them sings a section. The two lyrics in the same paragraph will also be sung alternately, and the former person can drag out the end of the previous sentence as long as possible to better drive the audience's emotions.

In addition, the live version of the song is also different from the soundtrack and studio version of the film in terms of arrangement. The soundtrack in the film is naturally meant to serve the plot of the film, while the studio version is for the senses, and in both versions, the guitar and the solo of the bass in the middle are removed. The live version is to serve the emotions of the audience, so the musical instrument solo returns to the song performance in a grand manner. And the enthusiastic screams of the audience are the best response.

As the emotions of the band and the audience continued to rise, after the first chorus, there was a natural chorus of thousands of people on and off the stage. Even many people are dancing and singing along with Dean, Xiao Yao and George on stage.

Some things are self-taught, seeing the scene of the audience singing together, when the second chorus comes again to the continuous repetition of the "immooo... Immortals", Dean naturally took off the microphone on the stand, walked to the edge of the stage, and extended the microphone to the audience. The audience in the front row craned their necks in excitement and roared hoarsely into the microphone in Dean's hand. (To be continued.) )
