Chapter 45: Before taking the stage, straighten out the band's problems

PS: Continue to ask for tickets, two shifts a day, rain or shine, one in the morning and one in the evening.

"Brother, you underestimate your popularity too much!" Gao Yan couldn't laugh anymore, he stretched out a palm and compared it to 5, then shook his fist, "10 minutes ago, there were almost 500 people, and now I'm afraid there are more than 1,000 people." ”

"Hiss~"

Someone only felt a chill on his back, and then shouted in a daze, "It's only 6 o'clock, right?" Is it worth waiting so long? ”

For someone who has never chased stars much, if he has to stand somewhere and wait for a so-called "star" to perform, if the time is short, he may make up for it. But when the waiting time is a few hours, then, sorry, he doesn't have the patience to die yet.

That's right, the dashing brother himself doesn't chase stars, and he is more interested in novels than watching movies and listening to songs. Therefore, he couldn't realize the temptation of being able to watch singers perform for free.

"So, we have to hurry!" Gao Yan looked at the watch on his wrist, frowned and said, "It's 6:20, we have to get ready before 7 o'clock, right...... Oops......"

He suddenly remembered one thing, that is, he didn't seem to have told the party "Xiao Tang" that Lao Huang had already found him a band, and they had already moved all the clothes to their own stores.

"What's wrong?" Brother Chic was startled by him, and was wearing pants but almost tripped over. couldn't help complaining: "I said Brother Yan, you better rest assured, even if there are more people watching, but I believe I can still do it." ”

"It's not that question, the point is that I found you a rock band with live accompaniment." Gao Yan smiled wryly: "It's just that you play and sing by yourself, don't you feel a little monotonous?" So I talked to the owner of a stage equipment rental company and asked him to find a good underground band on my behalf, and let them accompany you live when the time came. ”

"That's a good thing...... Wait......"

Brother Chic was a little surprised by this sudden news, because he had long felt that the way he played and sang by himself was indeed a bit unsuitable for the "big stage", especially when there were too many people, and the accompaniment of the acoustic guitar was easy to be "lost" in everyone's enthusiastic cheers. Therefore, when he heard that Gao Yan, the "patron", was so thoughtful, he immediately nodded happily, but ......

However, if the band and singer have never worked together, it is very, very easy to make mistakes!

That's right, don't look at the singers who held the concert in the stadium singing very high, the live band is also very powerful, all kinds of improvisations are endless, it is easy to use the variations of music to provoke everyone's shouts and cheers. However, the preparations made before the decision to start a concert, especially the time for joint training with the band, backup dancers, and other support staff, were only half a month.

Therefore, when Brother Chic thought of the word "tacit understanding", he suddenly shook his head again and again: "No, this is not good, we have no experience in cooperation at all, they don't know my singing habits, and I don't know what their various problems are." It doesn't matter if it's a small occasion, but there are so many people, if you go on a business trip, the consequences are very serious! ”

Yes, there will probably be a very large audience tonight, and the higher the attention, the more he can't make mistakes, otherwise, he can almost imagine that all kinds of reproaches await him. Even a little fame that has been achieved with great difficulty will definitely be rendered as a kind of irony that "has nothing to show for itself".

"So what to do?" Gao Yan is not stunned because he doesn't know anything, he thinks that if there are a lot of loopholes during the performance, some newspapers, magazines and even TV news tomorrow may "fall into the ground", and directly put "Xiao Tang" in the position of "sinner".

Brother Chic pinched his chin, his eyes kept turning, and he thought in his heart: "If I perform my own songs, I definitely can't use them to help accompany me, but what if it's just imitation?" If they dare to form a band, then there must still be some level, right? There must be no doubt that some classic and powerful songs, especially those that are suitable for bands, must be undoubted? ”

Thinking of this, he immediately said: "Well, my opening performance tonight will be my first song, so I don't need them to accompany me." As for the next performance repertoire, I will discuss with them later, and try to choose some classic and exciting ones, I believe they can still handle it. ”

"Well, that's a good idea!" Gao Yan thought about it, and had to admit that this was the only feasible way. I just hope that the guys Lao Huang is looking for can be more reliable!

So, the two immediately went downstairs, and then abandoned the car together, and walked directly to the Gaoyan store in the Three Gorges Square, and they didn't even bother to eat dinner. Of course, it's not that they don't stop eating, but they all feel that they still have to get the performance done first, so that they are in the mood to eat.

Just kidding, it's about to start, you haven't even seen a collaborator, who dares to be so?

The hotel is indeed not far from the square, and there are shortcuts along the way, so you don't have to drive to wait for a lot of traffic lights, which is of course very fast. It only took 10 minutes for them to see the store. In other words, I saw the front of the store that was setting up a stage that had surrounded a large number of people and was building a stage.

"The stage is only 45 square meters, about 9 meters deep, 5 meters long, and 1.5 meters high. All are made of detachable standard iron pieces connected with screws, and then the iron shelves are covered with a layer of one-inch thick plywood, and the top is covered with a red plush carpet. Gao Yan pointed to the stage being built and proudly introduced: "Because the time is very tight, I asked their boss to send some more workers, according to the current progress, there are at most 20 minutes to start debugging the lighting and speakers and other equipment, and the performance will not be delayed." ”

"Okay, I'm a standard novice in this area, I don't know anything!" Brother Chic looked very satisfied, such a large stage, the height is also very suitable, and all kinds of lamps and sprayers will start to work when the time comes...... Hehe, this is the real stage effect!

The two didn't stay any longer, and immediately bypassed the audience who were gathering more and more but were very interested, and walked into Gaoyan's large store covering an area of nearly 200 square meters.

"Brother Yan's business is doing a lot!" When Brother Chic entered the store, he found that Gao Yan's business was actually selling all kinds of camping equipment, sports equipment, and even protective equipment such as walkie-talkies, batons and other things. Immediately impressed with him.

can have the ability to obtain the qualification to sell police armor, this high boss can definitely not be a simple businessman.

"Haha, it's just a small fight, and you can't get on the stage!" Gao Yan smiled very easily and modestly, but Brother Xiao saw a hint of triumph in his eyes, but it didn't matter to him, so he shook his head with a smile, and turned his eyes from the dazzling array of objects to the five young men who were looking at him at the moment, standing in the middle of various rock instruments.

"If I'm not mistaken, a few buddies should be members of the "Eagle Band", which is very famous in Yuzhou, right? Brother Chic walked to the five-person group with a peaceful smile, and then generously stretched out his right hand, and said very formally: "My name is Tang Xiao, I call myself a young singer Xiao Tang, I have been lucky to gain a little fame recently, I hope everyone can cooperate happily and work together to complete tonight's performance perfectly." ”

I have to say that Brother Chic's posture is indeed very low, because he can see all kinds of suspicion, jealousy and even disdain in the eyes of these people at a glance. To be honest, he became famous too quickly and became too popular, and people do have reason to be suspicious, jealous and even disdainful. After all, people have been mixed up for so long, and they are just famous in Yuzhou bars.

If they don't want to work together later, then Brother Chic doesn't care, whether he is jealous or disdainful, he won't care. Because everyone is well water, not river water. However, because they are about to perform on stage together, Brother Chic doesn't want to cause everyone to be unhappy because of any details. So, he naturally put away the depression in his heart that he felt despised by others, and very calmly admitted that his fame was only because of luck.

Sure enough, as soon as he said this, the five-member group of the "Eagle Band" immediately became much friendlier, at least they weren't the kind of people who thought they were bulls! And most importantly, they still look forward to being on this "big stage", and this ultimate temptation is much more real than unrealistic jealousy and envy of someone. If they follow up with a little light, won't their future performance fees go up a little bit? Wouldn't there be more events?

Therefore, the five-member group immediately greeted Brother Chic and the "boss" Gao Yan, and nodded again and again for Gao Yan's immediate proposal to choose classic and energetic songs as performance repertoire.

So, a few people stood together and began to choose the right repertoire, the principle is to play it skillfully, make sure that most people have heard it, and it is catchy.
