Looking at Strauss again, she no longer had the same attitude of keeping strangers away from her just now, and her eyes seemed to be burning with anger as she looked at Bian Lang.

But when she looked at the familiar faces of Dili and Bob, the fire in her heart suddenly felt like it had been poured out by cold water.

Not to mention that the Rolling Stones now have a fixed lead guitar, even if they didn't, she felt that it would be difficult for her to compete.

After listening to "Fade To Black", she began to pay attention to news related to the Rolling Stones. Although she was not a die-hard fan, she was definitely at the level of a big fan. Naturally, she knew that Bian Lang could not find a suitable lead singer. Hands, the kind of ruthless person who would rather go to him directly.

Even if it's temporary, they are still musicians of Bob and Ding Tong's level.

And Bob and her, not to mention the mysterious and mysterious things like talent, just compare the time they have been in the industry, they have one double digit more than her, which is an absolute crushing in terms of experience.

As for Bian Lang herself, she probably couldn't think of any adjectives she could use to describe her feelings for this Chinese man.

Affected by the information gap and the media, in her inherent concept, Chinese rock music is a very barren soil. Such a towering tree suddenly appeared in this barren soil, which was somewhat unimaginable to her. and accepted.

The shock she felt when watching videos on the Internet was not so intuitive before, but now when she faced the waves directly, the crushing feeling that hit her face made her feel excited but also a little suffocated.

He thought that the technical gap could be made up through diligent practice, but the talent to write this kind of guitar solo was not a problem that could be solved by hard work.

Just like a sprinter, if you want to train for 10 seconds, you can achieve great results, but it is difficult to run for seconds.

The lead singer of the band naturally saw what she was thinking. After seeing that she did not go over to communicate but silently left the stage, he went up to comfort her: "Strauss, you are still very young, aren't you? You will have a lot of time and opportunities in the future."

Strauss can't say that she doesn't have any resentment about the disbandment of the band, but she is very happy to see the lead singer have a happy family, so now she can only cope with it and say: "Yes!"

……

At the concert the next day, due to the previous high-profile performance in London, there were quite a few fans who came for the Rolling Stones.

Although they are just guests, their performance is completely worth the price of a Hatter ticket.

Previously, DGM was being cunning and deliberately did not mention that the Stones would be on the show when issuing tickets. Although the ticket prices did not change, some Chinese music fans who followed Bian Lang's whereabouts had basically guessed that the Stones would appear, so they began to consciously hoard tickets.

Three days before the show, after DGM officially announced that the Rolling Stones would be attending, the scalper votes skyrocketed like a rocket. The price of an in-field ticket of 180 pounds soared to over pounds.

So much so that Ma Rui, who came here specifically to support her old classmate, was thinking about asking Bian Lang to repay the debt afterwards.

This time she was not as hasty as last time. She was prepared and invited a female painter friend to accompany her. When her friend heard that she was going to listen to rock music, her face was somewhat surprised. It’s not that she rejects rock music, but she feels that the purpose of going to Hatter’s venue is for a Chinese band, which is a bit unreasonable.

But due to her relationship with Ma Rui, she didn't say it.

After entering the venue, Ma Rui felt that the ticket price was still worth it, because the location was at the front of the stage. If Bian Lang interacted with the audience during the performance, he should be able to see her if he looked up.

Her friend, a painter, was attracted by the excitement of these men and women. She is engaged in classical oil painting creation, and the things she interacts with most in life are museums, plaster models and expressionless mannequins.

Now that so many vivid individuals suddenly appeared around her, she couldn't help but feel a lot of novelty.

When the opening time was approaching, the Magnet Band also came on stage and started performing to build the atmosphere for the Hatter performance that followed.

Mari didn't have much interest in singing, but Strauss with the Super Saiyan hairstyle attracted all her attention at once.

"It's so cool!" Mari couldn't help but want to make a one-to-one head sculpture for the female guitarist.

Although she has lived abroad all year round, her circle is mostly in the artist industry. Although there are many unique people, this is the first time she has seen such a flamboyant woman in real life.

Not only her, but her painter friends also said with emotion: "She is like a female goddess of war on stage. Give her a horse, and she will be the female version of Napoleon. If I want to change my style one day, she will definitely That’s my first choice as a model!”

Ma Rui was thinking about the charm of rock and roll that could allow a girl to use such an image as an external expression of her inner thoughts. Also, how could Bian Lang, who was once in the same class as her, embark on this path, and what was he thinking in his heart?

And after working quietly for 10 years, he actually performed abroad as soon as he started...

When the official performance started, watching the men and women around her shouting and jumping wildly to the rhythm, she seemed to have some understanding in her heart. Maybe rock music was like an opportunity, giving ordinary people an outlet to vent their emotions. Here, anyone can safely release the various emotions hidden in their hearts regardless of the opinions of others.

Infected by the atmosphere, the two women gradually let go of their usual reserve and got high with the crowd until Feimos called out the name of the Rolling Stones.

In an instant, the cheers erupted in the infield, where 3% of the audience was Chinese, were even louder than when Hatter took the stage at the beginning!

"Run, is it really your classmate who comes next? I can't believe it!"

Facing her friend's surprise, Mari nodded in disbelief and shouted at the top of her lungs: "The lead singer Bian Lang is indeed my college classmate!"

Her voice did not create any ripples among the waves of sound, but the proud look on her face, in the eyes of her painter friends, was even better than the day when her own works were held in Europe for the first time.

Seeing Bian Lang, who had been carefully packaged by Amiri, wearing patchwork jeans, pointed retro cowboy boots, a long black casual suit over a black and red shirt, Ma Rui's painter friend I was stunned by this man.

Especially her waist-length hair was blown by the night wind, and her half-covered face looked even more heroic.

Although it is winter, this female painter actually has the illusion of being in early spring. A vague warmth was baking in my heart, and I couldn't believe it would pop out of my chest in the next second.

There are many female fans who feel the same way as her, but their behavior is more bold, and all kinds of naked expressions of love come out of their mouths without hesitation.

Bian Lang had no unnecessary nonsense. After thanking the fans and Hatter who were present, the electric guitar in his hand began to pick up the rhythm, and at the same time, the American dry piano solo played in his hand was played.

As the first song of the Rolling Stones to land in Europe, and promoted by Hatter's first performance, it is now sung not only by the Chinese in the audience, but also by many foreigners who do not know the suburbs tens of thousands of miles away in China. Dialect accents follow the chorus.

"Why does the thick ink dye the night black... smear it arbitrarily, smear it arbitrarily around the moonlight..."

Listening to the many non-standard pronunciation of Chinese around her, Ma Rui felt both proud and ashamed.

She is proud that her classmate's music works are so popular abroad. As a classmate, she is naturally honored.

What makes her feel ashamed and angry is that even though she had listened to most of the Stones' songs before coming here, she still couldn't sing along!

As a college classmate, she actually lost in this matter to a group of foreigners who only had a relationship with Bian Lang as fans and idols. If word spread, where would her classmate's face be put?

Fortunately, my painter friend no longer has time to take care of her as the leader, otherwise, seeing her current predicament, she would inevitably be questioned and laughed at.

When the second song "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty" came, I watched Bian Lang lead the audience to shake their heads and sing:

"The wind can't blow away eternal regrets

Flowers, can't dye nostalgia

Snow does not reflect mountains and rivers

The moon cannot fulfill ancient dreams..."

The national pride in Ma Rui's heart instantly exploded!

As an artist in a foreign country, after achieving certain results, her obsession with spreading Chinese culture is engraved in her DNA, so she will not only show it in her works. Whenever a folk music artist comes to perform, she will invite foreign friends from time to time to listen and admire China's natural treasures and outstanding people!

However, those high-brow art forms have been washed away by popular music in China and have to rely on official support to survive. After arriving in Europe, they are only astonishing for a few hours during the performance.

Then there is no more!

But Bian Lang's song is different. He uses rock music, which is more popular among European people, as a carrier to convey the essence of Chinese culture.

The lyrics not only describe China’s treasures and outstanding people, but also the fragrance of paper and ink, and the rivers of poetry!

Not only are there heroes and heroes, but the bright lights are also shining with neon lights, and people are singing and dancing!

Looking at the foreigners at the scene who may not understand the meaning of the lyrics but still dance to the rhythm, she felt that this might be a cultural export path that is closer to ordinary foreigners.

And she also noticed that in the isolation area, the female guitarist who had just amazed her, every time the guitar solo played, her excitement level would rise to a higher level. The swinging and floating of the body and the involuntary movements of the hands showing the love and admiration for this song.

If the audience in the audience is not professional and just wants to watch the excitement and joy, then this professional person in Mari's view is proof that Bian Lang's music can be truly recognized in Europe!

Thinking of this, she decided to take her various foreign friends and follow in the footsteps of the Rolling Stones, chasing them all the way from Wales to Moscow!
