As soon as the three girls left, the members of the band surrounded Xiao Yao. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Where's the score? Take it out and take a look at it. Dean said most eagerly.

"Here, give, everyone take a look. Xiao Yao took out a few pieces of paper from his schoolbag and said.

"How can it be different? How many songs have you written?" said Dean, glancing at the few pieces of paper he had taken from Xiao Yao's hand.

"It's the same, see clearly. That's piano tabs, drum kits, and bass tabs. Xiao Yao rolled his eyes and said.

"Yo, really. Dean looked closely, only to see that the fourth line was the bass score, the fifth line was two, the upper and lower rows were piano scores, and the five lines alone were drum kits. There is also a stave, which is a vocal sheet music where the music and lyrics go together.

"Where did you get the paper for these instruments?" asked Sarmeon.

"Ballpoint pen and ruler, drawn by myself on white paper. Xiao Yao shrugged. "It's just a matter of drawing a few parallel lines, and it's not difficult. ”

"It's not hard to draw lines, but how can you know these individual instruments? Can you do piano, drum kit, bass?" Mike said, holding a rare bass score.

"yes, I didn't say I could only play guitar. Xiao Yao said as a matter of course.

"What else would you do?" Dean said as he looked at Xiao Yao. After getting along for more than two months, he thought he knew Xiao Yao very well, and now it seems that there are too many secrets on this guy that he doesn't know.

"Musical instruments?" began to count with his fingers: "In addition to piano, guitar, bass, drum kit, there are also ocarina, harmonica, saxophone, erhu... By the way, the erhu is a traditional Chinese stringed instrument with only two strings..."

"Enough, you can start a band by yourself. George couldn't help but interrupt.

"That sounds like a good idea. Xiao Yao touched his chin and said. At this moment, Xiao Yao remembered the owlcity in his previous life, and it seemed that he could also play like this after returning to China.

"Hey, are you looking at me or at the score?" Xiao Yao raised his head, but saw a few people looking at him as if they were aliens, and reminded him loudly.

After Xiao Yao's reminder, several people picked up the music score in their hands as if they had just woken up from a dream.

Sarmidon glanced at Xiao Yao, who had empty hands, and asked, "Everyone has a music score, but what about your guitar score?"

"Here it is. Xiao Yao smiled and pointed to his head, then closed his eyes.

Although everyone has no creative talent, after all, they play in a band, and they still have no knowledge of music theory and instruments. So within a few seconds, everyone was humming quietly to the score.

After about two or three minutes, everyone went through Xiao Yao's song. And the first thing everyone felt after humming was: this song is really ****** fantastic! It is not lost to the hits on the current Billboard charts.

"I have an idea. Dean, who had finished humming the score, was the first to speak, "Isn't our band not yet named? The tentative name of the Westbridge Middle School Band is uninteresting and too lacking in personality. Why don't you just call it immortals? This song is the first song of our band, and the name of this song is the name of our band. ”

"The song is Young. Sarmien reminded Dean with a frown.

"Keyan is now part of our band as well. His song, that is, the song of our band..."Dean looked at Sarnyon, suddenly understood what Sarmien meant, and quickly explained, "Of course, if this song can be released in the future, the songwriter must only be signed by Yang alone, and the ownership of this song is still owned by Yang alone, not the entire band." ”

George and Mike, who were beaming on the side, also nodded in support when they heard Dean's words.

"I'm okay with that. Xiao Yao nodded in agreement.

"Okay, in that case, let's hurry up and familiarize ourselves with the score. When Jenna and the others bought dinner, everyone started rehearsing after eating. The first song of the same name in our band, everyone must not smash it. ”

Because there are five members in the band, and they are going to perform live, Xiao Yao removed the electronic sound in the prelude part of the soundtrack from the original "Immortals" song in his previous life, and Xiao Yao felt that it was like both a flute and a whistle, and replaced it with the sound of the keyboard. At the same time, for the live effect, a guitar and bass solo were added to the middle part of the song, making the whole song more infectious, with less electronic music, but more like a traditional pop rock song. Judging by the effect shown during the rehearsal, it seems to be not bad.

This song was written by Xiao Yao, and naturally Xiao Yao is the most familiar with it. So in the rehearsal, Xiao Yao unconsciously took on the role of guidance.

"Stop, George, you're slowing down. ”

"Mike, you're not in the right rhythm, you're snapping. Come again. ”

"Sarmien, you missed the beat just now, and the drum beat was a little less. Pay attention next time. ”

"Dean, I just went out of tune, singing rock and roll is not just about shouting at the top of my voice, intonation is also very important. ”

"Stop, sorry, I just swept one less string, let's do it again. ”

From time to time, Xiao Yao pointed out everyone's mistakes, including his own mistakes and omissions, sometimes interrupting rehearsals and stopping, and sometimes waiting for a performance to be completed before bringing it up.

"Jan, who the hell are you?" Dean couldn't help but ask Xiao Yao during a break in the middle of the rehearsal.

Dean didn't question Xiao Yao's guidance, the mistakes and omissions pointed out by Xiao Yao were all facts, he just didn't understand why Xiao Yao's ears were so powerful, no matter whose mistakes and omissions it was, he could point it out, and it was also when he himself was playing. "I suspect that you are not the math genius Xiao Yao of Huaxia Yanjing No. 2 at all, but some musical genius impostor. ”

"Hehe," Xiao Yao smiled, "Actually, Xiao Yao, who has a good math score in Yanjing No. 2 Middle School, has a father who is an original singer and producer, he has been learning music with his father since he was a child, and his ears have also been trained in music by his father for more than ten years. ”

"You mean, your dad is a singer and producer, and he plays music, and you also studied music from your dad since you were a child, that's why you can write songs, know so many instruments, and your ears are so powerful?" Dean looked at Xiao Yao and said.

"yes," Xiao Yao nodded, "That's what I meant." ”

"And your academic performance?" Dean continued.

"Of course it's true. Xiao Yao said, "One is school education, and the other is family education. Because my literary and artistic expertise has little to do with school education, the information given by the school does not mention it. ”

"But that's incredible, you're a genius, a double talent. What's your IQ?" Mike leaned over as well.

"I haven't tested it, I don't know. Xiao Yao smiled and shook his head.

After the first day of rehearsal, although the effect of the joint practice was not too ideal, and the time was still very short, whether it was the song Xiao Yao took out or Xiao Yao's performance on the first day of rehearsal, it gave everyone great confidence. I believe that as long as they can practice well this week, the band will definitely be able to make a splash at the school celebration performance.

Jenna, who was originally purely to support her best friend Sarmeon, and the other three became the first three loyal fans of the band after watching the band's rehearsal on this day. In the rehearsals of the next few days, the three of them all attended all day long, and while being the audience, they also volunteered to take on the logistics of buying food and water for the band members.

For the first three days, the only loyal audience for the band's rehearsal was Jenna and the three of them, and on the fourth day, a fourth audience member appeared.

"What the hell is going on..."

Halfway through the rehearsal on the fourth day, the door from the warehouse to the supermarket was opened for the first time. A girl wearing an apron and a baseball cap emblazoned with the supermarket's name logo pushed the door open and entered the warehouse. As soon as she entered the warehouse, she was startled by the deafening sound of music inside.

Because the heavy iron door has a very good sound insulation effect, and the warehouse is separated from the front sales area by an office and a passage, so you can't hear the sound of the band rehearsal in the warehouse in the supermarket sales area, and the music is already playing in the supermarket radio speaker, and the band rehearsal will not affect the business of the supermarket in front. That's one of the reasons Robert Johnson agreed to lease a warehouse for the band's rehearsals.

But renting a warehouse for the band's rehearsals was only known to owner Robert Johnson and a handful of employees, not everyone who worked here. Apparently, the girl who had just walked into the warehouse was one of the unwitting employees.

"Kim," Xiao Yao, who was facing the door of the warehouse and the supermarket, saw that the girl who came in was frightened and screamed, and showed a puzzled expression, quickly stopped, put down the instrument and walked over to say hello and explain: "Our band rented this place to rehearse, and it was agreed by Mr. Johnson. ”

The girl in front of her, like Xiao Yao, is a part-time tally clerk here, and the first few days should not be her day at work, so she doesn't know it.

"Okay," the girl named Jin also knew Xiao Yao, who was also working part-time here, and nodded: "Since the boss agreed, naturally there is no problem." I came in to get a beer, and the shelves outside were almost sold out. ”

"We've moved the goods here, so some things aren't where they were. Xiao Yao said, "The beer you want is there, put it on the shelf on the third floor, I'll help you move it, how much do you want?"

"Okay, thank you, I'm going to get a box. Kim looked at the three-story shelving road, which needed to be reached by moving a ladder.

"Okay, wait a minute. With that, Xiao Yao quickly moved a ladder to the side of the beer shelf, climbed up and carried a case of beer out. Jin didn't stand where he was, but stood next to the ladder and took the beer from Xiao Yao, who was still standing on the ladder.

"You're all right, right? I'm going to have to go rehearse. Xiao Yao jumped off the ladder, greeted Jin, and ran back to the band without waiting for her to answer.

"Jan, don't pick up girls during rehearsals, okay?" Dean teased as he looked at Xiao Yao who ran back.

"I was helping my colleague, it was not easy for a girl to climb a ladder, and besides, the beer was originally on the first floor, but we moved it to the third floor. Xiao Yao shot back.

"Do you know that girl well, where is she from, what is she doing?" asked Sarmien this time.

"I don't know her very well, I just know that her name is Jin, she is Chinese, and she is also a part-time tally on the goods, as if she is a student of some dance academy. Xiao Yao scratched his head and said.

"People learn to dance, their bodies are very flexible, how hard is it to get up the ladder?" Samion said, rolling his eyes.

"Hey, who said you should hurry up and rehearse, you can't practice yet? Where did you practice just now? Xiao Yao could only exercise the power of his commander and forcibly divert the topic.

The girl named Kim took the beer and walked to the supermarket, not very fast. Xiao Yao and she have been working here for more than two months, and they have met many times, but the two are not too familiar, and they are only limited to meeting and saying hello. I didn't expect this big boy who usually looks ordinary except for his good looks and sunshine to be a band.

Dance students are not short of interest in music, so Kim was a little curious about the songs rehearsed by this band, and deliberately slowed down.

“because，we，could，be，immooo... immortals，immooo... immortals，immooo... immortals，immooo... immortals...”

A burst of high-pitched singing came, Jin looked back curiously, and saw Xiao Yao standing in a standing microphone, playing the guitar and singing loudly.

Since the first day of rehearsal, Xiao Yao pointed out several pitch problems to Dean and demonstrated them, Dean suggested that the band be changed from a single lead singer to a double lead singer configuration, with him and Xiao Yao singing a section each.

Xiao Yao's performance is in everyone's eyes, so the members of the band except Xiao Yao all expressed their approval at the first time, only Xiao Yao asked Dean a question: "You don't know how to play an instrument, I play the guitar when you sing, what do you do when I sing?"

"I sing the first stanza, you sing the second stanza. By the time you sing, the song is almost at its climax, and I'll just jump around the stage with a microphone and wave to the audience. Dean said as a matter of course.

This move seemed very reasonable, and Xiao Yao accepted it. So when Jin turned around, he happened to see that it was Xiao Yao singing.

"It's really good to sing, and this song seems to be very good. Phnom Penh thought as he walked to the supermarket, "It's going to be off work soon, and it seems that I can come over after work and listen to the full song." ”

As a result, there was a fourth audience member of the Immortals band during rehearsals, but this fourth audience member was basically hiding in the corner of the warehouse and listening secretly. (To be continued.) )
