Chapter Eighty-Seven: Clamor Time

Along the way, the two of them chatted about some and not, Fan Fan's university was studied in Luo Shaoqian's family medical school, at that time the school had not been merged, it was still a private college, he didn't know much about A University, I joked that he became an alumnus with me inexplicably, he asked me some things about college, and was surprised that I actually got a scholarship or something, I went to it, did the old lady have a face with poor academic performance? Time passed quickly, and after a while, I crossed the bridge to Sanshan Island, parked, and checked the ticket to enter the island.

As I thought, there aren't many people on the island, maybe look at it, there are no 50 people, this is a group of very unknown bands, is this a concert that sells tickets, why don't you come to these few hairy people, right?

"Just us?" I asked, pointing to the brightly lit stage not far away, and brushing my finger around the people on the island, in disbelief.

"I guess, there are 41 tickets in total, and there are only 41 people at most. Fan Fan quickened his pace to keep up with me, and by the way, he told me about the origin of tonight's concert.

The concert is a band called "Shouting Time", which was founded ten years ago in City B Polytechnic University, Fan Fan and the lead singer of the band are friends who have known each other for several years, the band was originally 6 people, and he became a rock musician in college without inhibition, and he played ping pong in the rented basement day and night, no one appreciated them, no one knew them, and they were so indulged in their own rock world, sassing carnivals, and going to various bars to stay. Skipping class, failing classes, problem students in the eyes of teachers, and idols in the eyes of school girls, the six-person team has been hilarious until the senior year, until one of the guitarists can only drop out because of poor grades, his mother finds the school leader, kneeling in front of the principal, this group of children who are not growing up suddenly wake up, it turns out that there are responsibilities and obligations that are as important as dreams. Since then, the band members have picked up their books and become top students one by one, and ten years have passed, almost all of them have become leaders in all walks of life, but because of their former musical dreams, they still often get together, sweep the strings, beat the drums, and sing two more stories of the past.

This is a concert with no sponsors out of pocket, it is an expression of youth and ideals, reality and compromise, a group of middle-aged men who have not forgotten their original intentions. Fan Fan and I found a place to sit down, the people on the stage were doing the final adjustment, the lead singer probably noticed Fan Fan's arrival, raised his hand to signal us, Fan Fan also stood up, gestured and sat down again. The crowd gathered around gradually increased, forty or fifty seats were not enough at all, and the people who landed on the island were attracted by the lights and music, and the band members on the stage had no intention of driving away.

The lights are focused, the solo of the guitar is the first to sound, and then the keyboard, bass, and drummer join the performance, the opening is a Mayday "Midsummer Light Year", the atmosphere of the scene is instantly ignited, a group of men around 30 years old, the body has been a little out of shape, and the voice is not as free as the young people, if it is not for listening to Fan Fan tell the story of this band in advance, probably it will not be too good. Some people say that the charm of rock and roll is to put people to death and be reborn, that is, to tell people how to live, I didn't understand the meaning of this sentence before, but now I sit in the middle of a large audience, unconsciously waving and shouting along with it, until I stand up and sway to the music. Perhaps the power of music lies in liberating one's own nature without limits, finding one's own story in the fanatical or quiet musical expression of others, those beautiful or sad ends, cruel or romantic tug-of-war, finding the node that changes us, and then crying with the ups and downs of music.

Fan Fan said that this band has been formed for ten years now, just like our feelings for each other, after dozens of cold and summer, they were reborn in the quenching, found the direction of life, and then looked back and picked up the dreams of the past, probably, I should also learn to give up and let go, life and reality let me have to make the choice, should be the most correct choice at the moment.

"This is really a wonderful concert!" I turned to look at Fan Fan, but I saw that he was also looking at the people who were struggling on stage with tears in his eyes, probably also meeting his good memories and unforgettable people. He probably didn't hear what I said, but I don't think it matters at all, this moment and now should really belong only to me, and the one who lives in my heart is tormented, or tormented, or has been through thousands of things.

After the concert, Fan Fan went to his old friend to say a few words, and I don't like to get into the strange crowd and pretend to be familiar, at my age, maybe it's just my personality, or I like to find a comfortable way to stay by myself The most relaxed. Sanshan Island is surrounded by mountains on three sides, facing water on one side, and the lake is not far from the land, but since it is nighttime, everything seems very deep. I stood by the lake and looked at the lights in the distance, is this City A? Where is Big A? I have lived in City A for almost seven years, and I have never looked at the night view of the city from such an angle, and when I am in it, most of them do not understand that one day they will leave her, and all their hometowns will eventually become other places one day, and we will feel that our nostalgia for other places at any time is in a hurry.

The distant land and the lake are connected to a line, the neon is reflected in the landscape into a painting, the last moment the ear is still the hustle and bustle of music, and the next second, I am standing alone by the lake, imagining myself as an outsider looking at this lively and noisy world, not lonely, not hesitating, this is my experience for many years, probably just the rock music with strong energy told me, Wen Tong, life is like the gorgeous summer flowers, death is like the quiet beauty of autumn leaves, crazy to get carried away, or such a breeze blowing quiet alone, there are many possibilities in life, not to choose one can only let go of the other, reality gives us every difficulty, and after working hard to overcome it, you will have a better self.

I seemed to see my long hair flowing in the scenery in the middle of the lake, and I also seemed to see the blue sky and white clouds of Ireland.

There's a chill in the evening breeze, but it's not uncomfortable. I don't know when Fan Fan stood beside me, I looked at him, and the two looked at each other and smiled, although we didn't know each other's stories, but this feeling of relief was very similar.

"How, Wen Tong. Fan Fan sent me back to A University and asked me with a slight smile.

"It's the best concert I've ever heard in my life. "I didn't hide my joy, but I couldn't tell him what had happened to him and why I thought it was so wonderful.

"So, are you determined in your heart? Ireland, have you really chosen it?" Fan Fan still said in the same casual tone, just as he asked me to consider whether Tu Tu was suitable to go to Ireland with me.

It turned out that Fan Fan took it to listen to this old boy's concert for this reason. I looked at him in surprise, then smiled again.

Fan Fan glanced at me, and obviously, he understood what I was talking about.
