Chapter 308 What is rock?

Ye Weiyang quietly looked at the people in the corner who were sarcasticating at them, without any expression, and was too lazy to even give him a redundant expression.

There is never a shortage of such high-minded and low-key players in the underground band. They don’t know how much they are. They think they are amazing, but in fact they are mentally retarded.

It's just like the band they met when they first participated in the Strawberry Festival.

Ye Weiyang is too lazy to pay attention to this kind of person.

He doesn't even remember what the band is called.

People who often go to music festivals actually hate the fan group that goes to for popular singers.

And they often regard it as toilet time when pop singers sing.

In the eyes of most folk and rock fans, the festival is their own private place, without too many places for pop singers.

There is nowhere to go into the specific reason why this has evolved into this situation.

Anyway, this trend has been formed now, which has led to many bands and independent musicians who have been involved in the music festival, and these music fans have also admired the feeling that "rock" and "folk ballads" are superior to popular people.

Commonly known as Ren Shangren.

Some underground people look down on mainstream people, commercialization, idols, etc.

But in fact, everyone plays music, and there is no meaning of rock and roll than popular people.

Of course, this is just a false idea of ​​a small number of independent musicians who are immersed in the pursuit of niche culture. In fact, the real old cannon still does not have this "human" attitude.

I can only say that they don’t like trends, but it doesn’t mean they look down on them or look down on trends.

In addition to those guests who do not hide their contempt for the band they are looking down on, there are also some guests with kindness, and even those with kindness are the majority.

The old rock cannon shark band, which dominated Yanjing as the base, came over very enthusiastically and greeted Ye Weiyang: "It's better to meet than to be famous. Hello, Teacher Ye, your band's song "Returning Me to Blue" is really good. It combines environmental awareness and punk, and applies the unique cry of punk culture to the appeal of environmental protection, which is a very novel idea."

In this world, punk has never been associated with environmental protection. The song "Returning Me to Blue" by the band is indeed a very innovative song in the eyes of most old rock guns.

On the contrary, the "Shan Hai", which was later popular and more popular, was just an ordinary rock song in their eyes, and even became a bit popular.

In the eyes of these real rock veterans, whether a song is excellent or not has nothing to do with whether it is highly popular or not.

What they value more is whether the song itself brings them new things and injects some new vitality into Chinese rock.

"Returning Me to Blue" did it.

So the Shark Band has a good sense of the band, and their lead singer Dong Yao pulled Ye Weiyang to communicate enthusiastically about punk music.

When they saw the big brothers in Yanjing rock, they pulled Ye Weiyang and the others to talk about music, and they also looked like they communicated equally with each other. Those "underground" who claimed to be the future hope of Chinese rock, they felt even more sad.

In the rock circle, if you can support you, it will be much easier. Everyone will give it convenience for the sake of Lao Pao.

They dreamed that they could be recognized by the old cannons in the circle, and at the very least, even if they could have the old cannons to support them.

Just like Ye Weiyang's previous life, Dou Wei's second daughter participated in a variety show and wanted to debut. As soon as she went on stage, the judges heard that her father was Dou Wei, so they passed it without saying a word.

Is this reasonable?

This is very reasonable...

Because the judges are also rock-stricken, saying that her father is Dou Wei is enough to explain.

Moreover, this practice has not been criticized after the show was broadcast. Instead, everyone thinks there is no problem because this behavior itself is very rock...

"Next time I have the chance, we will work together." Dong Yao smiled and lined up Ye Weiyang's shoulders, looking around with a big brother, looking around the other bands.

Those who were still sarcastic just now immediately lowered their heads.

Seeing these people's attitude, Ye Weiyang shook his head disdainfully, just playing rock. Isn't it just a group of cowards who are arrogant and bullied the weak and feared the strong?

"Sure!" He also hugged Dong Yao with a smile.

"Then let's go and prepare first, we're going to go on stage soon."

In the eyes of some jealous and enviousness, Ye Weiyang took Yang Xiao and Puding and others through the backstage in a swagger and stepped onto the second stage where the performance was being prepared.

As soon as he left the backstage, Yang Xiao couldn't stand it and scolded: "Damn, although I never think there is anything wrong with singing popular, I really can't accept it by being ridiculed by these idiots with low expectations."

"Does these idiots understand what rock is? They don't know how to rock at all!"

"They will only swing their long hair on the stage, sweep the strings desperately, make some near-noise music, and yell at the top of their lungs."

"Is the hair shaking enough, the guitar and bass sounding loud enough, and the lead singer's voice is big enough, is that rock?"

"A group of clowns who think they are very happy and handsome, and come to entertain themselves behind closed doors. Do they really think of themselves as Batman?"

"Whether it's punk, heavy metal, or death, or hardcore rock, although everyone has different musical styles, there is a standard that is common!"

"The heart of rock music is spirit, not form!"

"A bunch of stinky dogs!"

Pudding also echoed in a very resentful manner: "That's right, who do they think they are? What qualifications do they have to say about us?"

"The real old rock shark bands are chatting and laughing with Weiyang, why are they sarcastic about it?"

Ye Weiyang shook his head, stopped Pudding's words, reached out and put his hand on Yang Xiao's shoulder, and said firmly: "Then let them see what is real rock!"

Seeing several staff members moving their instruments to the stage and debugging the audio equipment, everything was ready.

"Go and go on stage!"

The five people from the non-closing band took firm steps and stepped onto the stage.

At this time, there was a band performing on the first stage next to him, but when some of the audience glanced at Ye Weiyang and others who were on the second stage, they immediately shouted in surprise:

"The band is on stage!"

"Look!! The band is coming!"

"Ahhhhh!! Ye Weiyang!!"

The crowd obviously began to shift to the side. Some audiences who had been firmly in the first row didn't care about the band being performed on the stage, and kept waving to the band that was open, hoping to get some response.

The band that was performing was a little embarrassed in an instant.

The audience who were interacting with him enthusiastically were instantly attracted by the second stage, and no one paid attention to him anymore.

This is a big deal!
