"I'm not sure what these neuropaths think, but I do have a problematic part of their head." Jie pointed to his head solemnly, and his fingers turned in circles, "To be able to maintain such a calm after creating a miracle that has swept North America for thirty-seven consecutive weeks, there must be something wrong here." ”

After everyone burst out laughing, Jay looked back at Hugo, "So, you're saying you're ...... when the entire North American market is already going crazy Filming? Hugo nodded in the affirmative, and Jay pursed his lips, "Very well, I'm sure I'm right." This time Hugo also chuckled, "I already know about the new scene you're filming, so I don't care at all, I'm more curious about Neil's underground tour." ”

Hugo, who had already planned to talk about "Los Angeles Confidential", was choked up, and his stunned expression made the scene laugh completely. Neil was also very cooperative at this time, and took the initiative to say, "Actually, after the world tour, we are all in the stage of rest. But then Hugo abandoned us, so we started an underground tour. ”

"I don't know, what's going on without the lead singer's tour? Is it like the Headless Horsemann? Jay's question made the members laugh out loud.

Neil shook his head repeatedly, "No, that's not the case. In fact, in the midst of underground rock, there are many great bands whose technical skills and creative inspiration are amazing. So, we've organized a group of great underground bands to tour the United States, not ticketed, but to public venues in every city, and anyone interested can enter. ”

Jay still had a puzzled expression, "Uh, what is the role of the Glory to Death member?" I mean, glory without a head unto death. ”

Neil couldn't help but burst out laughing, and he turned to Alfonso to explain, "We're the organizers first, and all four of us have our own part in facilitating this underground tour. In addition, during the intermission of the tour, there will be a showdown, guitar against guitar, bass against bass, drummer against drummer, keyboard against keyboard, ...... Each show may invite members of four different bands on stage, and we occasionally participate in these showdowns. ”

In fact, this idea was proposed by Alfonso, who had been running around for a long time, but now his main purpose is not to make money, but to drive the prosperity of underground rock with the fame of glory to death - if you want to make rock and roll truly revived, it is absolutely not enough to have only one glory to death, a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend, this is the right path. At the same time, the members of the band who have been honored to death can also continue to develop and challenge themselves in the competition with these top bands.

Hugo smiled enviously, "God knows how much I envy them." ”

Jie looked at Hugo with a surprised face, "Are you still here?" The audience burst into laughter again, "Today is the Glory to Death special, you should probably show up again next time you promote the movie." This is satirizing Hugo's identity as an actor.

However, Hugo didn't care, and laughed hehehe, "I'm a big fan of 'The Tonight Show', please allow me to stay here and admire the glory of my idol." After speaking, Hugo also looked at Jie with admiration, and Jie also raised his big chin cooperatively, and the applause and laughter on the scene were completely chaotic.

After laughing, Jay looked at Alfonso again, "You can hear that this underground tour is very interesting, but why haven't we received much news before?" ”

"In fact, it's only been less than two weeks since the tour started, we're still in the early stages, and a lot of things are still in chaos." Alfonso spoke again and said that although they had experienced a long tour, this time it was without the help of the live country, and all four members of the Glory to Death needed to organize, which can be said to be difficult, "In the preparation process, although Hugo did not appear on the scene, he helped a lot. ”

Hugo cleared his throat and looked ready to open his mouth for an interview.

But after Jie spoke, everyone laughed like crazy, "Fujin, so what is your goal now?" Seeing Hugo's lonely expression, everyone laughed.

Fujin couldn't help but laugh lightly, "Hugo is trying to help us find some professional help now, and at the same time, if someone is willing to sponsor our tour, it will be great." "Since this underground tour is completely free, in other words, there is no revenue, which is naturally not attractive to advertisers.

Jie turned his head to look at the camera lens and said seriously, "I hope you can pay more attention to this glorious underground tour." By the way, there is no Hugo Lancaster. After saying that, Jie didn't care about everyone's laughter, and turned his head to look back again, "So, what is your outlook for the future?" Of course, I know you guys don't have any special reaction to Week 37, but what if the record is broken? ”

In the face of Jay's question, everyone looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on Hugo, this time Hugo did not joke anymore, but said seriously, "For glory to death, the achievement of today is already very good." Of course, we also want to be able to move forward, but we want to focus on more rock bands than the so-called historical record, and in addition to glory to death, there are many excellent rock bands whose music always touches the softest and most passionate part of our hearts. ”

"So, you're saying that glory to death is only a good rock band." Jay grasped a small detail in Hugo's words and spoke.

Hugo raised an eyebrow and said generously, "Of course, why not?" The confident appearance made the applause of the audience ring.

In fact, after the "Tempest" world tour, the band Honor to Death was in a state of confusion, and in the end, it was Alfonso's plan that allowed the band to find their way again. Hugo's great dream, to reawaken the faith of rock and roll, requires the efforts of glory to death, the confrontation of the Oasis band, and the rise of countless other bands, so they are fully engaged in this underground tour, but everything is difficult at the beginning, this is an extremely difficult beginning.

Glory to Death started at the Los Angeles base and arrived at the Seattle rock base with the support of the Pearl Sauce band, but even so, it took the two of the nation's top bands nearly two months to summon eight bands and embark on an underground tour. Truly ignite a spark on the land of the North American continent.

"Stormy" won the championship for 37 consecutive weeks, and the three singles joined forces for 27 consecutive weeks...... This is a great achievement, but compared to the rock 'n' roll glory of the entire era, it is just a flash of fire. The members of the glorious death experienced happiness, excitement, excitement, and finally returned to the music itself.

This time in "The Tonight Show", they also hope to draw more attention to rock bands.

The success of "The Tonight Show" was clearly outstanding, and after the show aired, the Glory to Death underground tour attracted three advertising sponsors - even without Hugo leading the way, and finally the extreme sports brand VANS won the sponsorship, and the rock festival "Warped" that would affect almost two entire generations later. Tours kicked off for the first time in the summer of 1997.

"Twist Tour" has not only become the number one underground rock tour in North America, but also a summer carnival celebration for countless young people who have challenged the limits, and ranks among the top three rock music festivals in North America along with Coachella and Lollapalooza, but the scale and momentum of the Twist Tour are far from comparable to the other two music festivals.

Every summer, from June to August, there are more than 20 tours for three months, calling for more than 1.7 million spectators. As a distinctive feature, each year the twisted tour features a main lineup of underground bands, with minor changes to the lineup arriving in each city - many of the most famous local underground bands have access to performances; And every year as the finale of the tour, the famous rock bands of the year will be invited to perform on stage, of which there are four times before and after the glory to death, and every year there is a frenzy of ticket grabbing.

On top of the twisted tour, there was the Arcade. Fire), thirty seconds to Mars (30. Seconds。 To。 Mars), Lincoln, Coldplay, Owl. City) and other famous rock bands, which really revitalized the American rock music market.

It all started in the summer of 1997.

Returning to "The Tonight Show", Jay apparently didn't realize that his casual interview today had sparked a revolution in North American music for the next fifteen years. Life, as Hugo said, at the moment when history is being created, it is difficult for the parties concerned to feel that kind of shock.

"The last question for tonight, 'Long. Long。 Way。 To。 Go)' was born on the recording set of our show, and now it's the eighth number one single from the glory to death, so when will your next single be released? At the end of the show, Jay returned to the incredible historical record.

Hugo looked at Jay but chuckled, "Jay, when did you start interviewing this kind of official question?" ”

This answer was unexpected by everyone, but it was expected, because Hugo was saying: there is no plan for a short time. Jay couldn't help but chuckle, "Ever since a band dominated the Billboard singles charts for twenty-seven weeks in a row. This ingenious answer caused everyone in the audience to applaud again, "Ladies and gentlemen, let us thank you again, glory to death, and hope that next week we will greet this episode of the program with a smile on our faces." ”

Thirty-seven weeks? Or is it a challenge of thirty-eight weeks?
