Young people with light music will not encounter lonely rock music

"The guitar player who ran away was supposed to sing the song. Where did she go..."

Itachi Hongxia successfully changed the topic.

"We need to find a new lead singer again... Speaking of which, I'm not very good at singing. How are you guys doing?" Ichichi Hongxia said with a sigh.

"Haha... Actually, my singing is quite good. You could hear it just now."

Kotobuki Hikari volunteered, holding her chest and looking very confident.

"Yada." Yi Di knew Hongxia.

"Dama." Yamada Ryo said.

"Unreasonable." Goto Kazuri said.

The three girls didn't even think about it, and of course they immediately rejected the boy's bold idea.

Chapter 20 Band Tradition

At this moment, Kotobuki Hikaru suddenly realized a cruel fact.

I seem to...

been despised.

"In the end, as a drummer, I can't be the lead singer no matter what..." Itachi Hongxia lamented.

If you can sing and play the drums at the same time, that would be amazing.

Moreover, the human voice inside the sound collection will definitely be drowned out by the drum sound.

Generally speaking, except for bands with a dedicated lead singer position, bassists and rhythm guitar players usually work part-time as lead singers. Occasionally, there will be keyboard players as lead singers, but not many.

The position of the non-part-time lead vocalist is a bit awkward. The guitarist can only stand in a daze when playing solo, but the drummer can still do some tricks, using an effect cymbal, and the bassist can also do a hip-hop dance to make his presence felt, as a person who is always ready to sing. The lead singer, they can only wave their hands or something like yo yo yo a few times.

——A joke is a joke. In fact, no matter who is in the band, they are irreplaceable. No matter who is missing, the band is incomplete.

"How about Ichiri singing?" Ichichi Hongxia leaned on the table with her hands, propped up her chin, and asked Goto Ichiri.

He directly ignored Kotobuki who was in distress.

But as soon as the words were spoken, the girl realized.

I asked the wrong person.

Goto Ichiri immediately trembled after being asked.

It seems as if he is about to enter that 'Pochi's Heart Barrier (Autism)' state again anytime and anywhere.

"Ah...I'm sorry." Yi Jihongxia immediately apologized first.

Then he looked at his friend again. "Then it's just cold..."

I saw Ryo Yamada making a pitiful and pretentious look, wiping the tears squeezed out of the corners of his eyes with his sleeves, and smoothing his bangs and hair on the side.

"If I were to be the core again, it would become my solo performance and the band would be ruined by me."

The more I hear these words from Versailles, the more angry I get!

but......

Ryo Yamada is definitely the most confident among them.

Yesterday, she performed best among the three girls when she performed on stage.

"I have a problem with that."

Kotobuki Hikaru, who had been silent for a long time, raised his hand to ask a question.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that his words were interrupted, the sadness on Yamada Ryo's face disappeared instantly.

"Generally speaking, the bassist has to be the lead singer on stage, and after the performance, he has to reveal his blue and white hair under his skirt. Isn't this a band tradition?"

"what?"

"Ok?"

"Well?"

Three intersecting eyes looked at Kotobuki Hikari.

Even Goto Kazuri, who has always been very frustrated, has a look of perversion in his eyes.

“Who told you that the bass player had this tradition?”

The iceberg beauty Yamada Ryo's cheeks were also a little swollen, stained with a color like the sunset at five o'clock in the afternoon.

You could hear the shyness she suppressed in her suppressed voice.

Why show off your fat...

Why does it have to be blue and white?

Hard to understand.

"My sister told me."

"Then your sister's band is really weird..."

Snapped--

Yamada Ryo held his forehead.

What an outrageous bass player to do such a thing.

"And in the latest rock magazine interview a few days ago, the bassist and lead singer of the popular band also likes to take off his clothes when singing, right?"

Speaking of this, Kotobuki Hikaru's tone suddenly became a bit high-pitched and smug.

"So taking off your clothes is the essence of rock and roll."

Unknowingly, the obstacles in my heart gradually began to dissolve.

When I play guitar, I feel like a normal person (sure).

"I didn't expect... Hikari, you are such a pervert with such a hobby." Yamada Ryo said ruthlessly.

"Huh?" Qin Chuiguang raised his eyebrows.

"Kotobuki-kun... we are all high school girls." Ichichi Hongka, who looked embarrassed, began to re-examine the sound effects of Kotobuki Hikaru in her heart.

"Hikari...don't worry...even if you are a pervert, we are still friends."

From Goto Ichiri's distorted expression and his slightly trembling body, it can be seen that it took a lot of courage to say this.

"What are you talking about...I'm not a pervert!"

"An Xin, Hikari, why are you playing rock and roll if you're not a pervert?" Yamada Ryo cast a pitiful look.

"After all, when you play in a band, the most important thing is to prepare your own songs."

Seeing that the style of the conversation was getting more and more wrong, Ichichi Hongxia forcibly changed the topic in time.

"If you just cover other people's songs all the time, you can't call it a band at all..."

"Besides, Ryo can compose music."

Yijizhi Hongxia's eyes shone and she proudly talked about her friend's ability to compose music.

"So...so awesome..." Goto Ichiri said in surprise.

She also tried to make some original melodies of her own, but there was no traffic at all when posting them on video websites... Therefore, Ichiri Goto knew that composing music was a difficult thing.

"This is not something worth bragging about." Although he said self-effacing words, Yamada Ryo couldn't help but feel proud on his face.

"Besides, Hikari must also be able to compose music."

"Well, it's okay." The man nodded.

"Eh?"

"Really?"

Itachi, Hongxia and Goto were both amazed.

"Nothing surprising, Hikaru is a keyboard player."

Yamada Ryo crossed his arms, as if he was an expert, and had a feeling of 'look at this inexperienced look.'

"What's wrong with the keyboard player..." Tomoji Itachi said in confusion.

"Actually, keyboardists are a rare species in rock music. Their responsibilities in the band are more important than playing the keyboard. Composing is the keyboardist's true responsibility."

After all, there are still very few keyboard players who become monks halfway. Most of the people who can become keyboard players in professional bands have a background in music theory and piano, and naturally have excellent foundations.

"So...so awesome, light..."

Goto Kazuri looked at his friend with shining eyes, just like Ichichi Hongka before.

"And as I said, her sister's band all composed music for her, so it's only natural that Guang, who received the same education, can compose."

"Then, I'll leave it to you two to compose the band's music."

Itachi Hongxia patted the shoulder of his right arm.

"Then... let Yili write the lyrics! This way there won't be any unacceptable content."

"Eh - I'll write it?" Gotou Ichiri was frightened and said a very cute 'Eh'.

Can I...really do this?

The more Ichiri Goto thought about it, the more he became afraid, and the more he became afraid, the more he thought about it, and he gradually fell into such a strange circle.

"Don't worry, if it's one mile, it will definitely be okay."

The boy comforted the girl who was about to reach 1000% synchronization rate, allowing Goto Kazuri to gradually come back to his senses.

"I...I will work hard!"

Goto Kazuri cheered up.

"So, what is Hongxia going to do?"

Seeing that everyone except Hong Xia had responsible tasks, everyone turned their final spearhead against Ichichi.

"Eh?"

The girl was stunned for a moment. -.-

Then he naturally picked up the dice on the table and threw them to the ground with a hey.

"Next is the topic of indicators."

Chapter 21 So cheap?

Being in a band is expensive.

If you really want to get the band on track.

If it is just a campus band formed in the school and only rehearses and performs in the school, there will be no fixed expenses. However, a band that performs in various live houses will have a lot of additional expenses.

After all.

Playing music itself is quite expensive, not to mention the money spent on buying different musical instruments and the effects required for various styles. Some musicians even have more than a dozen effectors, and even drummers have There will be effects cymbals prepared, and the keyboard player will also have many different types of synthesizers.

(Singer: Huh? Why do you spend so much money to play in a band?)

"After all, when a hobby gradually becomes a profession, the energy and money required will obviously increase exponentially..."

Itachi Hongxia sighed.

Although it is not yet a professional band, working in this direction already makes her feel the pressure.

"Bands that perform in live houses will be given quotas and must sell a certain number of tickets to ensure income. If they can sell more than this number of tickets, the extra income will be divided between the venue and the band. But if it is not enough, Then you have to pay for it yourself.”

"That is to say, before the fame can attract a large number of audiences to come to the performance, the band will burn money." Yamada Ryo concluded.

"Doesn't it mean that no matter how you do it, livehouse will always make a profit without losing any money? Damn it, what is the difference between this zero-risk business and those unscrupulous capitalists." Kotobuki Mitsuru said indignantly.

In fact, livehouses also bear risks. If unknown bands are allowed to advance money to perform on stage every time, the reputation of the entire exhibition hall will decline, and it will be like [no guests - the band will gain no fans - fewer guests] Such a vicious cycle.

Therefore, generally speaking, a well-known band will be invited as the finale to attract guests, and less famous bands will be allowed to go on stage to warm up the show. By the way, they can also use the reputation of other bands to gain fans.

Generally speaking, livehouse is a platform for new bands to showcase, and the relationship between the band and the band is mutual help and loss.
