The band Friday is not very famous now, and Liu Jingxin is actually mentally prepared for the cold performance at the beginning of the evening.

But what they didn't expect was that by the time they arrived at the YOX bar, there were already a lot of people gathered inside.

The men, both men and women, were very young, and they were dressed up, presumably students from nearby universities.

How can you tell if a person is a student or not? In addition to looking at the looks, you can often tell by looking at the clothes.

If you are evaluated like a college student, don't be happy first, except that it is possible that the other party is really praising you for being young, and more likely that you are actually saying that you are dressed dirty.

The students were very enthusiastic and took out their mobile phones to take pictures of Liu Jingxin and them, and some girls shouted that they wanted to give them monkeys.

Liu Jingxin looked a little panicked when they had seen this battle.

At this time, the girl who took the initiative to talk to Liu Jingxin last night came over, took the initiative to shake Liu Jingxin's hand, and said with a smile: "Thank you for not me? ”

I see!

It seems that the girl who shouted just now to give birth to a monkey should be the little sister of this girl, and it is very likely that people are not really "chasing stars", but helping Liu Jingxin and them in this way.

Liu Jingxin solemnly bowed to the girl, then didn't say anything, walked through the separated crowd with the brothers, came to the small stage in front of the dance floor, and began to debug the equipment.

Zhen Youcai ran to the side to find the bar owner Cao Zhisheng, squinted his eyes and asked with a smile: "Da Sheng, didn't expect it?"

Cao Zhisheng looked at the hot scene in the bar, nodded stunnedly, and said: "I really didn't expect it, but can you mobilize these people to buy some drinks and snacks or something, just earning tickets is a loss of money." ”

Zhen Youcai "haha" smiled: "It's all old brothers, don't talk about money, talking about money hurts feelings." Look at it, I'll definitely bring them out. When they catch fire, you can spread the word that Friday once performed at your bar, and that's a lot of face. ”

Cao Zhisheng glanced at Zhen Youcai helplessly, smiled, raised his beer and said, "Then I salute your rising star in advance!"

Zhen Youcai raised the wine bottle and touched Cao Zhisheng with a "bang", and said arrogantly: "It's done!"

On the stage, Liu Jingxin and the five of them quickly debugged the equipment, and after separating their positions, they officially started their performance today.

Because they had to sing cover songs in the first half hour, Liu Jingxin chose "Don't cry" by the Gun Flower Band.

This song is one of the most famous songs of the Gun Flower Band, and the whole song exudes a sad mood, and it sounds like a person sitting at a bar and smoking a cigarette, looking at the photo album in his phone with a complicated expression, and muttering love words that his loved one can't hear.

And after a guitar solo in the middle, the emotions of the whole song finally began to explode, like roaring, like roaring, there is helplessness that cannot be recovered, and there is also the sadness of having to leave.

Choosing this song at the beginning is actually quite risky, because it is too unconventional.

When many bands choose the opening music, they will choose songs with a strong sense of rhythm, wanting to blow up the atmosphere of the scene.

But Liu Jingxin made such a choice after several considerations. They're trying, trying to raise and suppress, trying to use a song to layer up the emotion, so that when they lead out those original songs, they can achieve the best effect.

However, these cautions are for laymen or beginner rock lovers, and those who really know enough about rock and roll will definitely have a different feeling when they hear this song.

Cao Zhisheng almost pursed his lips and listened to the song "Don't cry", and after the song ended, his brows loosened suddenly, and he turned his head to Zhen Youcai and said: "I've heard too many bands sing this song, but it's the first time I've heard such a high degree of restoration, if you close your eyes and listen to it, it feels almost the same as the original." ”

Of course, he couldn't have known that Liu Jingxin had more than 100 classic rock tracks that exceeded 90 points in the "Test" software's almost harsh scoring criteria, and he would never have imagined that the songs practiced by the Friday band were not only based on the original score, but also the timbre of the instruments had been tuned according to the original parameters.

Zhen Youcai held up a bottle of beer again and said, "What else is there to say, let's go again." ”

Cao Zhisheng glanced at Zhen Youcai, and then silently raised a bottle of beer, and dried it in one go.

After "Don't cry", it would definitely be inappropriate to choose a song with such a depressed mood, but it would certainly not be appropriate to immediately choose the kind of fast-paced track that can blow up the scene.

The rollercoaster experience, which is slow and fast, will easily make the audience feel tired.

The second song they chose was "18 and life" by Skid Row.

Putting aside the song's overly rebellious lyrics, just listening to the rhythm and melody, especially the lead singer's continuous treble in the chorus, as long as it is performed well, it can definitely make people feel very shocking.

The people in the audience held up the metal salute and waved their arms to the rhythm of the drums, and when Liu Jingxin sang the high-pitched chorus, everyone couldn't hold back their excitement and cheered loudly.

Sure enough, the high notes of the live performance can really stir up the atmosphere!

"This lead singer is very powerful!" Cao Zhisheng couldn't help but praise again: "The voice is so bright, there is not a single sound, and it feels as if it can be higher." ”

Zhen Youcai did not pull Cao Zhisheng with a smug face this time, but turned his head to look at Liu Jingxin on the stage.

Although he has not been the manager of the Friday band for a long time, Zhen Youcai is already very aware of how much effort Liu Jingxin has put in and how much sweat he has shed in order to maintain a high level of singing skills.

The reason why Zhen Youcai firmly believes that he can bring the Friday band out is precisely because he sees how hard everyone in this band is!

If in the current era, there are really bands that can come out, why not them?

Even if they are in darkness, their heads are held high, and they must be facing the light!

The dozen or so cover tracks in the previous hour went smoothly, and Liu Jingxin didn't say any string words, basically leading the whole band to sing one song after another. Time is limited, and he hopes to sing a few more songs, worthy of these people who came to support them today.

At about 10:10 o'clock, all the songs in the first stage on the song list were finished, and Liu Jingxin also temporarily interspersed two pure performance tracks, showing the skills of each of them, which attracted applause one after another, and even the people who were drinking in the booths on both sides at the beginning stood up.

Next, it's finally time to sing the original track.

The first original song Liu Jingxin chose was "Before Folding Wings", and among the five original songs, he liked this one the most, because this song best represented their current state of mind and state.

"Hibernating in the grass, looking up at the sky, the clouds are boundless, how can there be the blue of dreams?

Because of the unwillingness, spinning silk into a cocoon, enjoying the lonely, bruised sleep.

Sweat and tears are the same taste, dreams and thoughts are the same distant;

If you don't want to die like this, then breathe harder and tear apart the cocoon that binds you!

Regardless of its thunderclouds and lightning flashes, I just want to break through the clouds and burn out my life, before I fold my wings.

Regardless of its rain and lightning, I just want to fly for nine days, even if the clouds don't open, the fog doesn't disperse, even if I will be torn apart tomorrow, I will desperately reach the end of my dream, before I break my wings!"
