Chapter 322 Transaction (Please subscribe, please vote)

As for the fact that the password he had never seen before was his own song score, Bian Lang could only remain silent.

"Thank you for your support and love for Rolling Stone. I also like your beer very much."

"Really? This is the beer we brewed ourselves. It's a pity that we can't bottle it for you to take back. Otherwise, when you return to China, I will definitely let you take some back."

After finishing his chat, George turned to the topic: "As you know before the show starts, I want to invite the Rolling Stones to come to my place to perform a careful live. I wonder if the Rolling Stones can include this in their schedule this time. It’s time.”

Regarding this matter, Bian Lang began to think about it after hearing George's words before tonight's performance. Although this is not the Marquee from the previous life, it is similar in nature.

If the time is good, he would be willing to perform here.

The biggest difference between rock bands and singers is that singers can rely on various online exposures to accumulate and increase their fame, while rock bands are different. They must rely on live performances to better capture their fame. Rock n roll fan at heart.

After all, there is a saying that may not be completely correct, but it definitely makes sense, that is, "No live, no rock and roll!"

Rock and roll is a live art. It is not only the performance of the band on stage, but also the interaction of fans off the stage. It is also an indispensable part of rock music. Seeing and hearing the live high-pitched E6 with your own eyes is definitely not the same level of enjoyment as listening to it with headphones.

Rock music is more than just a few musicians playing instruments on the stage and playing music.
  It is the dynamic rhythm under the fingertips of the guitar;
  It’s the rhythm of the drum that shakes the soul;
  It’s long flowing hair and unrestrained romantic feelings;

It is a hoarse, cynical roar;
  It’s the girl’s bright eyes, the starlight of love;

It’s the crowd rolling over the scene, they are believers in art;

It is the warm light waiting at home;

It is the youthful joy that cannot be let go of the white moonlight;
  It is a dream, after thousands of sails it is still a young man;

It is an ordinary life of carrying a heavy burden and struggling in the steel jungle of the city;

It’s the ups and downs of the team, different life choices, and the unchanging brotherhood;
  It is the contempt and pursuit of capital, and the ebb and flow are the ups and downs of fate;

It is the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, magnificent and beautiful, inspiring the mind;

He is a humble person who dares not forget about his country, sings praises of greatness, and denounces injustice;

Yes……

And all of this can only be truly felt when you go to the venue.

After thinking about this, Bian Lang took a sip of beer, feeling the aroma of malt and sweet caramel in his mouth, and then nodded and agreed: "Our trip in Europe will last until Christmas, and during this period we will definitely look for opportunities to come here." Do a show, but it probably won’t be possible during this British show.”

After receiving this affirmative answer, George also showed a smile on his face: "That's great. I will talk to your agent about the specific details later. You have also seen my situation. Most of the customers are people who really like rock music. I don’t know how China operates this kind of small live, but I only have the ticket income for the day and free drinks for your band. I want to make this clear to you in advance."

"We at Rolling Stone can accept this, but I have something special that I would like to make a deal with you. Do you want to sell your recipe for brewing beer?"

"Huh?" George never expected that Bian Lang would ask such a question, and he was a little surprised for a moment: "Wave, if you like it, just come to my place more often. I can give you a personal exemption. But it’s not easy to brew it yourself. As a loyal rock fan, I hope you can focus on music creation.”

As soon as George finished speaking, Bian Lang shook his head and said, "George, I think you misunderstood. Our family has a beer factory in China..."

After Bian Lang finished talking about the matter, George rolled his eyes a few times before he made his condition very seriously: "In that case, I can give you the formula for free, but I also have a condition."

When Bian Lang heard that it was free, he instinctively wanted to refuse, but when he heard that there were conditions, he nodded and stretched out his hand to signal George to continue.

“I hope that after mass production, this wine can be named after Rolling Stone, and at the same time, my three wines will also be named after Rolling Stone as their signatures.”

Even if George likes rock and roll, it can't change the fact that he is a businessman. The club still has to make profits by selling drinks. Just when he was about to collect the ticket Bianlang exchanged for beer, the story and marketing routine for this beer already had a rough outline in his mind.

Now that Bian Lang is interested in the recipe of this beer, he can naturally improve and expand the scale of this plan. Although the Rolling Stones are still a fledgling in the world's rock music circle, the creative acumen shown by Wave impressed even George, an old rocker. Trading a small beer recipe for a big rock IP that may be world-famous in the future, George felt that he had made a lot of money.

Faced with this condition, Bian Lang thought for a while and then agreed: "You can only brew and sell it in the club. If you want to produce it in bottles and sell it outside, then we will have to talk about how to cooperate in the future."

"This is what I want to say, so I wish us a happy cooperation..."

After the two things were settled, the two chatted back to music. George curiously asked Bian Lang about the process of composing English songs, while Bian Lang asked this old British rocker about the British rock music that the original owner didn't know about. s story.

While the two were chatting, another band performing tonight also appeared on the stage.

The 4-person Oreo white and black configuration, without speaking or looking at the instruments, Bian Lang could basically tell that the performance would be related to the blues.

After all, blues and reggae originated in Africa, and these two musical forms are almost in the blood of black people. If people of other skin colors want to surpass them, they often have to work several times harder than they do, but they are not as easy to do as they can.

The moment a middle-aged black man wearing an electric guitar and retro work clothes with khaki straps played the harmonica hanging on his chest to a pentatonic scale, Bian Lang's suspicion was verified.

In the original world of the early 20th century blues chords were not clearly defined, but in the 1930s the 12-bar blues became the standard.

但是除典型的12节布鲁斯外还有8节布鲁斯形式和16节布鲁斯形式。基本的12节布鲁斯反应了标准的12节和声，其节奏为4/4或2/4拍。12节布鲁斯的布鲁斯和弦一般是在12节组合上演奏出来的一组三个不同的和弦。

The lyrics usually end on the last beat of the tenth measure or the first beat of the eleventh measure, and the last two measures serve as a transition for the instrumentalist. The chords in these two measures can be very complex, and sometimes the chords cannot be analyzed. But the last beat is almost always based on a dominant seventh chord to enhance the power of the next verse. Melodically blues uses the flat third, fifth and seventh semitones of the major key.

The 12-bar harmonic progression remained in use for centuries, but a revolutionary improvement in the blues was the use of flat thirds, flat sevenths, and even flat fifths in the melody, plus the simultaneous playing of adjacent notes directly and "tear" notes as leading notes. .

A classical musician usually plays the leading note first, while a blues singer or harmonica player will adjust the pitch, and a blues pianist or guitarist will play both notes at the same time and then play them in advance. Turn on the pilot tone. Blues chords also use subdominant major and minor seventh chords and tonic major and minor seventh chords instead of the dominant key.

Occasionally, blues also uses minor keys. The minor keys of blues are not much different from traditional minor keys. Occasionally, a flat fifth is used in the main key. Often the singer or the main instrument will play the major fifth in the chord at the same time. In addition, minor blues generally have 16 bars instead of 12, and are often influenced by gospel religious music.

The rock rhythm of blues is also a characteristic of it. Its use enhances the effects of rhythm and response. Much of postwar electric blues and rock music used the simpler of these rhythms. Early bebop was a basic three-note riff based on guitar strings. This sound group, combined with the bass and drums, creates a walking bass-like technique that gives the blues its quintessential feel. The last measure of a harmonic progression generally transitions to the beginning of the next harmonic progression.

Rock rhythms often use the sound of "doo, dadoo, dadoo, da" or "dong, dadong, dadong, da" when singing. On the guitar it could be a simple, constant bass or a stepwise quarter-tone progression from a dominant fifth to a dominant seventh and back again.

As the ancestor of rock music, the fixed chord trend of blues music restricts the possibility of more imagination, but it also forms its most iconic and charming style.

The Rolling Stones of the original Earth are also a band that has continued the route of traditional blues rock since its establishment.

Listening to the lyrics of "Honey, We need to be happy..." sung by the black female lead vocalist on the stage, Bian Lang followed the rhythm and tapped the rhythm with his right fingertips on his thigh.

After the 4/4 beat accentuated the harmony, Bian Lang couldn't help but think of a song by the Rolling Stones: "

You bit my lip and drew first blood
  You bit my lip and sucked a drop of blood
  And warmed my cold cold heart
  And warmed my extremely cold heart

You wrote your name right on my back
  You carved your name on my back

Boy your nails were sharp
  God, your nails are so sharp.
  Don't stop
  don't stop
  Honey don't stop
  Baby, don’t stop…”

This song "Don't Stop" is part of the 3 Million Rolling Stones 50CD that spans 50 years and features [-] selected tracks from the "GRRR!" disc.

Although this song is not as dazzling as the other top tracks on the album, it was selected into this rock and roll encyclopedia-like album out of hundreds of songs during the Rolling Stones' 50-year band career at that time, showing its quality and popularity. It's definitely not bad either.

The chimpanzee with a big tongue sticking out on the cover of this album is also a classic design that countless music fans talk about.

After all, there was a saying in the rock circle about record covers in the previous life: big tongue (Rolling Stones), big banana (Velve Underground), crossing the road (Beatles), Mitsubishi mirror refraction diagram (Pink Floyd), children in the swimming pool ( Nirvana), lightning makeup (David Bowie), these covers have influenced many future generations of rock people...

Thinking of this, Bian Lang couldn't help but add a few more small goals in his mind...
