Maracana, the limit of dreams to challenge. Read the full text of the latest chapterRead the full text of the latest chapter. The update is so fast.
For countless singers, they didn't even have the qualifications to challenge in their lifetimes, but they fulfilled their entire dreams with glory to death, and conquered Maracana with an absolutely strong attitude. The phrase "conquest" is not enough to express the grandeur and greatness of that wonderful night.
From the last day of 1996 to the first day of 1997, Maracanã, the venue that carried the dream, witnessed a four-and-a-half-hour frenzy of glory to death, with more than 700,000 spectators in and out of the venue, making it the largest concert in the history of music. Not even a rock festival can reach this scale!
Not only did 700,000 people participate in the concert, but all 700,000 people are in a state of frenzy, and the four-and-a-half-hour non-stop carnival has led as many as 231 spectators into a state of shock, while more than 1,800 spectators have been dehydrated spectacularly.
What's even more terrifying is that at the end of the performance, when the audience called for encore in a percussive rhythm, a slight magnitude earthquake was created near Rio de Janeiro, and many residents felt the tremor. The noise level around the Maracanã is 141 decibels – and the noise emitted by jet planes when they take off is only 130 decibels, which is also a new Guinness record.
After the concert, the New York Times randomly interviewed 557 audience members at the scene, and received a 98.7 percent positive rating, while only seven audience members gave negative reviews because "the concert was already over."
This Maracanã concert not only went down in history with a series of records, but also allowed everyone to witness the ability to perform live to death. Controlling an audience of 210,000 people is definitely the biggest problem in history - it is difficult to reach the sky, but the four-and-a-half-hour performance of Glory to Death has mobilized the emotions of almost every audience member, and the unparalleled live experience is even more amazing.
Afterward. Seven of the world's top professional magazines, including "Rolling Stone" and "Q Magazine", selected the ten greatest concerts of the 20th century, and the concert that has set countless records was undoubtedly selected for the list.
"The Rolling Stones" ranked the death-glorious Maracanã New Year's Eve concert in third place, behind the Beatles' 1969 rooftop concert and Michael Jackson's 1997 concert at London's Wembley Stadium. In the comments, "Rolling Stone" said, "A glorious moment to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!" ”
Q Magazine ranked the Maracanã New Year's Eve concert as the winner, beating the Beatles, Nirvana, Queen and the Rolling Stones, making Glory to Death truly on par with these classic and legendary bands. "This was the peak moment of music in the nineties," they said. There is no substitute. ”
It can be said that the significance of this Maracanã concert is definitely more than just a concert. It is more about the painstaking efforts and 'essence' of glory to death, so that people can clearly and profoundly understand what kind of band glory to death is, and what kind of work is the music of glory to death, which truly establishes the status of glory to death in the long history of music.
If the battle of the century and the ultimate showdown prove that the powerful influence of glory to death is now almost sweeping the world with a devastating momentum; The "Tempest" tour, especially the Maracana, wrote the Glory to Death musical style, which really made Glory to Death recognized by music critics and audiences, and codified the category of "new metal rock" into the theoretical discipline.
This is how history is born unintentionally. Even after witnessing the madness of the battle of the century and the ultimate showdown, no one could have predicted the significance of this world tour. Inadvertently, countless viewers have become witnesses to historical moments.
The success of the Maracanã show has attracted a frenzy of media in North America, South America and Europe, as the next glorious world is about to begin, and the bright flame will cause a real storm. But for glory to death, they have no time to care about the madness of this performance.
And not only because they've always focused on the tour itself. ignore the influence of the media; It is also because there is a soul that has merged with the Maracanã and has truly become a part of the "Stormy" Maracanã field, remaining in this land forever.
Looking at Jessica and Robin in front of him, Neil didn't know what to say, he looked back and Hugo was just standing quietly next to him. Not a word, no special expression; Alfonso and Fokine were just standing side by side, their faces hidden in the shadows of the shadows. Although Pedro was by his side, Pedro was in a really bad state at this time, with a smile on his face, but he couldn't hide the redness and swelling in his eyes.
"I'm sorry......" Neil said, suppressing the turmoil in his heart. If you know about this concert. It will become Sally's swan song, and they would never agree to Sally coming over in the first place - no one knows if it was the long-distance 'wave' and the long euphoria that led to this qiē.
Jessica shook her head repeatedly, and a faint smile was drawn at the corner of her mouth, "Neil, you don't need to apologize to us, on the contrary, we should thank you for what you did for Sally." Having said that, there was obviously a lot to say, but Jessica found that her throat was blocked, and she couldn't speak at all, and the warmth of her eyes made her turn her head in a wolf manner.
"Neil, this is Sally's choice, and it's our couple's choice." Robin picked up his wife's words, "You know, that's what was best for Sally, and she chose the most beautiful and memorable way to leave. If we just confine Sally to a sick bed. Maybe she'll be able to talk to us now......" Robin's voice choked up, but he held it back, "but I know Sally won't be happy that way." On the contrary, I must thank you for your willingness to cooperate with Sally and for your willingness to be with Sally all the time......"
There were still a thousand words in his head, but Robin didn't know how to express them, so he just left a "thank you" in the end, and then hugged Neil, Fokin, Pedro and Alfonso one by one, ready to turn around and say goodbye. However, Robin saw Hugo standing quietly next to him, thought about it, and walked over.
Hugo raised his head and looked at Robin head-on, wanting to say "safe journey", but found that this sentence had no weight, and the hypocrisy was terrible, and it could only be stuck in his throat, not knowing whether to say it or not. Then, Hugo saw Robin 'show' a smile, shallow, a little sad, and a little ridiculous.
"Hugo, you know, many times I'm jealous of you." Robin said, shaking his head self-deprecatingly, "Because Sally talks about you every day, from breakfast to dinner, she always says, 'Hey, Hugo has a movie coming out,' 'Hugo has a new song,' 'What did Hugo say today?'...... Oh, for God's sake, I'm almost jealous of you. ”
Hugo couldn't help but tug at the corners of his mouth when he said this, but he didn't laugh.
Robin let out a long sigh, then smiled again and said, "But, I have to thank you for making Sally's life 'fine'......" Hugo wanted to say a few words, but Robin raised his hand to stop him, "You don't have to be humble, and I didn't mean to praise you, hehe." Robin's words made Hugo smile nothingly, "Not long ago, Sally told me about your dream, you want to make people feel the charm of rock and roll again, and make rock and roll a belief again. In fact, when I first heard it, I thought you were overpowered, and it was probably just an idol who didn't know the height of the sky. However, you convinced me, or rather, you persuaded me with Sally. The truth is, I'm the self-righteous idiot. ”
There was always a faint melancholy between Robin's eyebrows, even if he was smiling, it was so bitter, "Sally's biggest dream is to watch you realize this ideal one day." So......" Robin tried to sort out the language, "so ......" but found it not that easy, "I also hope that this day will come." ”
With that, Robin stretched out his right hand and placed it in front of Hugo. Hugo hesitated for a moment, only to hear Robin say with a smile, "Don't keep me waiting, I have to catch a plane." Hugo then stretched out his right hand, and the two of them shook it vigorously.
Then Robin bent down and whispered in Hugo's ear, "Thank you for singing 'Don't't't't'n't'n't'n'n'n't'n'n'n't'n't'n look。 ba。 anger)’。 This time, Robin didn't stop any longer, turned around and strode towards Jessica. It's just that he raised his right hand and wiped it twice in his eye socket, and his movements were a little wolfy.
Looking at Robin's departing back, Hugo let out a long breath, but he still felt that his 'chest' was stuffy, and there was an indescribable feeling. The originally tense shoulders suddenly became heavy, and Hugo suddenly discovered that in fact, he was no longer moving forward alone, not only with countless supporters behind him, but also the common dream of countless people.
Shortly after the Maracanã concert, Henry Bloom officially announced the establishment of the "Sally Foundation", the first of which came from the merchandise sales of the "Tempest" world tour, up to $3 million directly. The Sally Foundation will continue Hugo's wish to treat stubborn diseases and terminal illnesses in children and adolescents, hoping to bring more hope and a future to children.
This is known to everyone, and almost no one knows, that after leaving the Maracana, Hugo's personal guitar strap was embroidered with a name in black thread, "Sally". From this day on, Hugo carried his and Sally's dreams and moved forward together.
