Respawn Entertainment: Days of Glory
Chapter 839 Daily life
Chapter 839 Daily life
George didn't go to The Vault of Heaven club tonight, not because the Rolling Stones didn't give him a ticket, but because he gave the ticket to an old customer of the club named Will. Will is a classical guitarist and is quite famous in the circle.
Many classical music guitar scores on the market today are based on his adaptations.
The two have been friends for more than ten years. Will came to George to drink because he failed to get the tickets. George thought that there were still a few shows to come, and with his current relationship with Bian Lang, there was no need to rush.
But after Will came back and told him what happened, he regretted it: "Will, you are so lucky this time. Giving you the ticket is one of the worst decisions I made this year."
Will did not deny it. After taking a sip of Rolling Stone Craft Beer, he said excitedly, "Thank you, George! I know your relationship with Wave. It's not difficult for you to get tickets now. It's just that you don't want to do that.
I really like the song "Nothing Else Matters". I can't imagine that this is a rock song. I personally think that this song should be performed in a concert hall and changed to a symphony or a choir! "
If someone said this to George, he would probably just laugh it off and not take it seriously. Especially when a choir was asked to perform this kind of thing, it must have been a joke.
But he recognized Will's level of appreciation, so he could only sigh at the bar: "I don't know if the Rolling Stones will play these songs at the next stop. It seems that every show in the future cannot be missed."
Hearing what George said, Will said directly: "George, how about we go together? You pay for the tickets, and I'll pay for the rest of the hotel and travel expenses."
George agreed without even thinking: "Sure!"
George didn't mind the travel expenses, but it would be more interesting to have a friend with him. Otherwise, if he went alone, the rest of the time would be boring.
Of course, he could also go find Bian Lang and the others, but they would definitely be busy rehearsing and wouldn't have time to chat with him.
Just as the two reached a consensus and toasted to celebrate, the waiter came over and said, "Boss, Wave is outside!"
Hearing this, George and Will stood up and walked towards the door with their glasses of wine.
When they got to the door, they heard Thor's loud voice: "George, the password to enter the door is wrong. The prelude score of this song cannot be 5789345..."
When he opened the door and saw that it was Bian Lang, Thor and the other four, he opened the door and let them in.
The purpose of his entrance password is to screen out those drinkers who don't match the club's temperament. Arguing with these bigwigs is simply crazy.
After hugging Bian Lang, he asked curiously, "Wave, don't you have a celebration party tonight?"
"I went there. The place Adams booked is not far from here. There are too many unfamiliar people there. It's not as comfortable as here. I just wanted to come over and have a drink with you and chat, but who knew that I would be..."
When Regman heard this, he said frankly, "If I don't see you tonight, old Thor might do anything, so..."
Thor said confidently, "Wave, I know that what I did was a bit rash, but please understand the feelings of an old guitarist like me. I don't have much time left..."
This is not wrong, but it sounds too weird!
If it were in China, Bian Lang would definitely say, "How can you curse yourself to die early like this?" But he didn't know how to express this context in English, so he could only shake his head and say, "There's no need to rush to do it on this day..."
"By the way, I want to give you a guitar. If you have time these days, come and ask me to choose one!"
Bian Lang asked himself which brand's limited edition he couldn't get. He didn't quite understand what the stubborn old man Thor was trying to do, so he politely declined, "Thank you, Mr. Thor..."
But before he could finish his words, Regman interrupted him and said, "Wave, don't rush to refuse. Many of Thor's collections are out-of-print Ming pianos. Some are used by deceased super musicians..."
I became a little interested when I heard about the waves here.
He didn't care about out-of-print pianos, but he wanted to see the pianos used by famous deceased musicians. After all, after knowing Thor's identity, he also understood that the musicians who used the pianos collected by this famous musician were definitely not simple characters.
Bian Lang really wanted to go and see what the tone of the pianos used by these musicians was like!
On the original Earth, it would be almost impossible for him to have such an opportunity.
If it was a guitar comparable to those of BBKing and Jimi Hendrix in the original Earth, Bian Lang really had no chance of encountering one in the original Earth.
Thinking of this, Bian Lang agreed immediately: "Then I will take the time to contact you, so Mr. Thor, what do you want from me?"
"There's no rush, let's drink first..."
Hearing Thor say this, George also echoed: "Yes, let's sit down and have a drink first!"
Although Thor was not familiar with him, he knew him. Although he did not know what he wanted to talk to Bian Lang about, but since he was able to give him a rare and precious piano, it must be something serious.
He runs a club, and his connections with these big musicians are quite important, so he doesn't mind saying a few words and leaving a good impression on them.
The six people found a booth and sat down under George's arrangement. While waiting for the wine to be served, Bian Lang first introduced George to Regman and the others, and then George introduced Will to Bian Lang and others.
Upon hearing Will's name, Thor stared at his nails and then suddenly said, "Octopus Will? I often watch your videos. I can't imagine how much control you have over your palms!"
Thor's words are not just commercial flattery. There are many subtle differences between the two ways of playing guitar, fingerstyle and shuffle. Many guitarists may never reach the master level in their entire lives.
If rock guitarists like Bian Lang don't have professional training, they can only play like a pro without knowing the essence of classical guitar, such as semitone, finger rolling and dynamics. "Mr. Thor! I didn't expect to see you here. I have adapted your works..." Will said this sincerely.
If he were asked to play thrash metal, he would definitely not be a match for Thor.
Since they are all guitarists and have good achievements and reputations in their respective fields, they naturally have a lot to talk about.
But after a few words, the topic returned to the Rolling Stones' just-concluded concert: "Will, did you go to the Rolling Stones' live show tonight?"
Hearing this, Will smiled and said, “Thank you, generous George, for giving me the opportunity to hear the premiere of Nothing Else Matters live!”
"I guess you like "Nothing Else Matters" and you should have considered playing it as a classical guitar piece..."
Hearing this, Will turned to Bian Lang and said with some resentment: "I do have this idea, but everyone knows how fast the Rolling Stones produce studio versions!"
No matter who says this, Bian Lang always says: "You know, we, the Rolling Stones, are just a new band that was established only a year ago!"
Faced with Bian Lang's irrefutable super Versailles, the other five people present could only shake their heads helplessly.
Although music fans are complaining about the slow pace of releasing records, compared to any other band that was established only one year ago, the Rolling Stones' performance in all aspects is impeccable!
No band of the same period can compare with it in terms of quality or quantity!
Or in other words, among the bands formed at the same time, only the Rolling Stones made it, while the others were probably busy rehearsing and writing songs!
But what about the Rolling Stones? They are already waiting for the Grammys!
"Wave, if there was such a great band when I was as young as you, I would never drink with a bunch of old men after my concert!"
After hearing what Thor said, Tian, who was almost killed by Bian Lang's chat, became lively again!
George: "It's hard to say. If the Rolling Stones were playing in a bar, Wave would never have walked out intact!"
Thor: "Wave, I'll just tell you what I think! I heard from Silva that you need five guitarists for one of your works. I'm very interested in this!"
Bian Lang did have this need. There were three people in the Rolling Stones, including himself, and one more was needed if Bob was counted as an extra. Bian Lang originally planned to let Ding Tong come, but now the music school has started normal teaching, Strauss and Di Li have been brought out, so Ding Tong must stay to look after the house!
At least this is the first year that we have to have a master in the circle to take charge, so we have to find one to ensure that we can reproduce the five-guitar version of "California Guest House" when we go to the United States!
Of course, Bian Lang has no doubt about Thor's ability. With Regman's endorsement, Bian Lang can also rest assured in other aspects!
The only thing that worried Bian Lang was his physical condition.
AC/DC is 70 years old, which is the right age to start a career. Just listen to this. There are only a few examples in the world. Other bands of the same period can no longer perform for some reason. This is the norm!
"Thor, I'm very happy to invite you to join the rehearsal of my work, but before that I should tell you about my plan. If you think you have no problem..."
Then Bian Lang told Thor all about the plan. When Thor was thinking seriously, Will, who was only about 10 years older than Bian Lang, spoke up: "Wave, can I join you as a substitute guitarist for this piece?"
This was somewhat beyond Bian Lang's expectations. Although he didn't know Will's name before today, he could tell from the conversation between Thor and him that his attainments in finger-playing classical guitar were definitely ranked among the top in the world.
Of course, Lang is more than happy to have such a fingerstyle master join the group!
Moreover, after I had explained the basic situation, he proposed to be the substitute.
At this time, George also said: "Wave, according to your plan of playing five unplugged guitars, then Will must be the person you need!"
Seeing what George said, Bian Lang made a decision directly: "Will, to be honest, I didn't know anything about you before today, but I believe in George! I think it's a waste if your skills are only used to be a backup guitarist.
I can give you the five guitar parts first, and you can pick one you like and practice it first according to your strengths and preferences... I can make adjustments later based on the situation!"
Hearing Bian Lang's arrangement, Will was of course very willing to accept it: "Okay! Then I will try not to let you down!"
Seeing that Will, who came to join in temporarily, was so straightforward, Thor did not hesitate. He thought about it, but he also knew that Bian Lang was worried.
"Wave, I hope my impulsiveness didn't cause you any trouble. Give me half a month, and I'll come back to discuss this with you after I've rehearsed."
"OK!"
After Bian Lang and the two of them drank a glass, Will brought the topic back to "Nothing Else Matters": "Wave, when are the Rolling Stones going to release the studio version? I'm not sure about the accuracy of my transcription of the live version!"
Bian Lang knew that if he was given the score directly, he would not accept it. This kind of person would only find it interesting if he challenged himself in this way, otherwise he would directly ask for the score!
"I can give you the official recording video, and of course I can also play a piece for you here tonight..."
……
At the same time, at the celebration party organized by Adams, the disappearance of Bian Lang did not affect the atmosphere much. After all, if the two agents Chen Shuting and Evelyn were present, it would be easier for those artists who wanted songs to speak directly!
Of course, some media and reporters were invited, but this has nothing to do with the material collection for today's premiere. Adams and Chen Shuting were chatting with reporters from the Chinese official media.
"If your prediction is true, after the Rolling Stones land in North America, will CAA really use some abnormal means to target the Rolling Stones?"
Adams reviewed the information that the company had helped to organize during this period, and then answered seriously: "This is almost 100% likely to happen. The only difference is what the gangsters CAA will do!"
Seeing that the reporter had no intention of interrupting, Adams continued, "Public opinion warfare is only the simplest and most commonly used method, but I think this method may not be of much use to the Rolling Stones! If the Rolling Stones maintain the current state and complete their tour of Europe, then the fans will not be willing to believe the media!
So the Rolling Stones may face some non-public opinion measures, such as not being able to obtain legal performance procedures due to identity issues..."
Adams wanted to say more than that, but he believed that with reporter Song's sensitivity, some things would be understood by just saying this. If the Rolling Stones' tour was cancelled, DGM would suffer the greatest financial loss.
Complain to China's official media now, and when you encounter problems that they cannot solve, the power of the official media can be used to guide you to make crucial changes!
