Chapter 141: The King's Bar
When Guan Hao found out that there were two pairs of people behind him who were arguing, it was actually too late.
The two teams had already begun to push each other, and they saw that one group of people was tall, muscular, with big shoulders and round waists, most of them were tattooed and bearded, and at first glance they were foreign motorcyclists and men, while the other group was obviously not afraid of the motorcycles, and the leader was a white young man in his early thirties, very handsome.
The Locomotives had fewer people than on the other side, and as outsiders, they were noticeably more united than those on the other side.
At first, both sides were very restrained, at least verbally arguing.
But now, some of the people of the Locomotive Party did not calm down and pushed the people of the other side, and the people of the other side immediately surrounded the people of the Basic Party.
The handsome man led by two sturdy and tall black men, one left and one right, walked to the besieged motorcyclist party, and a bald white man with a gray beard who seemed to be in the lead.
"Hi friends! Welcome to M City, I'm the owner of King's Bar, my name is Anthony, are you their head? ”
The handsome Anthony came up at the beginning to maintain his generosity and friendliness, which eased the atmosphere of the scene a little.
"Hello, Anthony! My friends, everybody calls me Brave Delin. We came all the way to M City to be invited to tomorrow's open barrel festival, and of course we didn't want to make trouble. ”
Delin, the leader of the motorcycle party, also looks like a quiet person.
"However, I want to reiterate, we are bikers, not nasty gypsies, we are a bunch of people who run all the way to enjoy freedom and their hobbies, we are not beggars, nor wanderers, nor troublemakers, we are here to participate in the open barrel music festival, I think M city is an inclusive and friendly and hospitable city, she should welcome everyone who comes here, so please apologize to the guy who insulted us just now!"
Delin passionately said some of his own opinions, which immediately aroused warm applause from the onlookers.
Guan Hao and Rook also applauded, you know, M City is the source of civil independence and a paradise and sacred place for those who run for freedom, because it is here that a fighter who sacrificed for freedom is here.
In addition to country music and the civil rights movement in M City, the people here advocate freedom and individual rights.
Anthony, the boss of the king, saw that the scene was aroused by Delin's emotions among the people, the so-called public opinion cannot be violated, and it is unlikely that he will protect his own people at this time, so he had to say to everyone: "Delin is right, M City is a city of freedom, and it is also a city of hospitality, we welcome anyone to M City, I welcome anyone to the King's Bar, Billy just drank too much, I apologize for her inappropriate remarks to all the friends who came from afar, of course, the friends of the motorcycle party also need Billy to apologize to everyone in person, Billy, You apologize to everyone! ”
At this time, a middle-aged white man with a lewd face and a slightly sloppy costume swayed into the crowd of spectators, his cloudy eyes numb with alcohol.
"Anthony, are you asking me to apologize to this group of foreign gypsies?! This group of filthy and filthy ......... People, get out of our city. You are not welcome here. Damn it! ”
I only heard a "snap", Anthony got up and slapped him, and the slap was just right to throw out Billy, who was full of wine and was still chattering, and suddenly you were speech, and Billy, who was already slightly drunk, was stunned by the slap, and stood in the crowd in a daze, not knowing what to do.
"Sorry, he's drunk too much." After speaking, Anthony motioned for the black bodyguard next to him to take Billy, who was stunned, out of the King's Bar.
Seeing that Anthony handled the matter fairly, the Motorcycle Party on Delin's side slowly calmed down, and under Delin's persuasion, everyone slowly dispersed.
At this time, Anthony arranged for the waiter to bring two bottles of Jack Daniel's whiskey to the area where Delin and his group were.
"Sir, in order to apologize for what just happened, Anthony sent me these two bottles of Jack Daniel's whiskey, which are given to you for free by the King's Bar, please enjoy!"
"Thank you! Come and pay tribute to Anthony! Hats off to M City! Cheers together! ”
A dispute was quickly resolved in Anthony's ingenuity, and the scene won everyone's favor, and it seems that this Anthony really has a way of doing business.
When Guan Hao saw this, he immediately became interested in this Anthony.
And the small stage performance continued, and it did not stop because of the dispute just now, in fact, such disputes are relatively common in bars, especially in country A.
Because of alcohol, everyone will become extremely excited, and then advocate a free country, a little disobedience to people's wishes may be a big fight, and the bar usually requires customers to hand over their weapons to the bar for safekeeping before entering, even if everyone is in the bar downtown, but as long as the gun is not used, the bar can control the situation, because if the scene is too chaotic, the bar staff usually take out their legally owned shotguns, deter both sides of the fight, if it can be deterred and calmed down that is the best, If you really can't, you will invite the other party to go outside the bar, and you can change it, anyway, it has nothing to do with the bar. As for what the outcome is, it's not something that the bar can imagine and handle. At least the bar is not responsible, and there is no loss from fighting impression business.
The small stage began to play the second piece of music of the night, and without the host announcing the curtain, the crippled band began to play the prelude to the piece, and the lead singer played the guitar, which quickly became the focus of the stage.
When Guan Hao heard the classic melody sound, he couldn't help but excitedly call out the big name of the song, "It's "Hotel California"!" ”
That's right, the second piece of music played live is "Hotel California", and the classic guitar melody, weird and inexplicable lyrics, and touching pathos in the song make this "Hotel California" a favorite of music fans. Of course, it is also Guan Hao's favorite.
However, because the Birds of Paradise band lacked the harmonic part of the piano performance, this classic song suddenly lacked a little color.
The prelude stopped, and the beautiful lead singer stood in front of the microphone and whispered softly to the microphone: "Thank you friends for coming to the King's Bar, and then I hope you can enjoy the song "Hotel California", but I am a little sorry, our pianist Mason is not able to be there because he is not feeling well today, and our piano harmony part can only be removed, of course, if there are friends who are willing to come up and listen to the performance with us, we are also very welcome." Thank you all in the end! Wishing you all a happy and happy evening! ”
There is a tradition at the King's Bar that even every music lover can show off their talents on the King's Stage, as long as you are confident enough.
Because of this popular stage tradition, King's Bar has unearthed grassroots country music superstars like Morgan and Elvis, and many country music singers have gone to country A and the world from this small stage of King's Bar.
Guan Hao didn't know about this tradition of the King's Bar, but he quickly walked to the small stage with the idea of going to save the scene.
On the stage, Guan Hao did not have stage fright in front of an audience of nearly 100 people in the audience, and smiled at the beautiful lead singer: "Hey, can I try your piano?" ”
"Absolutely!" The beautiful lead singer made a graceful please.
Guan Hao was not polite, he sat on the piano bench with his buttocks, straightened his body, did not look at the piano score, stretched out his hands, and made a simple movement with ten fingers. It's time to start playing.
This is a very well-maintained Steinway grand piano, looking at its condition should have been used for more than 50 years, although there are traces of age on the body, but the discerning Guan Hao knows that the piano is very well maintained after seeing the second hand.
I saw Guan Hao's ten slender but slightly rough fingers quickly slashing across the keys, and in the blink of an eye, Guan Hao's hands crossed and played the keys at an almost magical speed. Suddenly, the melodious and familiar melody sounded, and the scene that was still chaotic and noisy suddenly quieted down.
Guan Hao played the prelude of "Hotel California" with the piano, just simply adjusted the piano, and sat in shock, because there are many people who know the piano at the scene, they found that Guan Hao actually crossed the fourteenth degree with one hand, and what is even more exaggerated is that he just inadvertently showed his hands crossed across the fourteenth degree.
"Oh my God, that kid crossed his hands fourteen degrees."
Anyone who knows the piano knows that because the piano has too many keys and a wide range, it is usually necessary to cross the pitch in a short period of time when playing, that is, the so-called span, it is difficult to span at the moment of finger play, and it is difficult to span more than five degrees, and there are only a few in the world that spans more than five degrees, and Levi's, who is recognized as the "father of the piano", can also cross thirteen degrees with his right hand.
That is a god-like person in the piano world, and Guan Hao showed a sensational effect of his hands spanning 14 degrees as soon as he got started, how could this not cause a sensation on the scene.
Obviously, there are so-called scouts on the scene, and when they see Guan Hao's fingering is so good, they are all a little ready to rush to the stage and stuff their business cards to Guan Hao!
Guan Hao only tried the tone once and then signaled to the band, he was ready to start.
"Hotel California" is a song he is very familiar with, and Guan Hao can play it very skillfully without even looking at the staves.
The band requires a high degree of collective cooperation, Guan Hao has not trained with the band, the first time he cooperated, he was still very nervous, but the cooperation was very good, almost perfect.
In particular, the harmony part between him and the beautiful lead singer, the melodious and tactful piano accompaniment and the mellow and bright folk guitar accompaniment used by the beautiful lead singer, the deep and pure sound quality, coupled with the beautiful performance posture of the lead singer, and her delicate and slightly hoarse voice played "Hotel California" won the warm cheers and applause of the audience.
