Perfect Superstar

Liao Jia is a singer with great personality.

At first glance, he doesn't look like a well-known singer at all, but the kind of big brother who is often seen in Xiangjiang movies. He sits in an old teahouse drinking refreshments when he has nothing to do. Directing a group of younger brothers to collect protection fees everywhere.

In the circle, Liao Jia is also recognized as bold and loyal. His aura is very unique, and when people face him, they will involuntarily feel a little awe.

But when he appeared on the stage holding the guitar, it was another Liao Jia.

This Liao Jia is a singer, a rock singer, a veteran who can give up everything for his ideals!

When he plucked the steel string vigorously and opened his mouth to roar out the first line of lyrics, thousands of audiences around the stage were all boiling, as if a ladle of cold water was poured on boiling oil, and they burst with a whoosh. .

To commemorate the frivolity of youth, to commemorate the dead love, to commemorate the never-fading friendship...

Liao Jia used this original song "Remembrance Day" to sing his nostalgia and nostalgia for the past years, and his anger and bewilderment towards today's grotesque world. With his unique hoarse roaring voice, the current audience seems to have returned to that period of rock and roll.

They sang indiscriminately with Liao Jia, roared loudly together, shouted together and commemorated together!

In the backstage area, all the singers including Lu Chen stood up and paid tribute to this rock veteran who had never really given in.

Many fans once said that Liao Jia, who wrote "The Ivy House" and "Old Guy", has fallen, saying that he turned his back on rock and roll and chose to compromise with the market when the country was in decline.

However, Liao Jia, standing on the stage at this moment, is still the angry young man wearing a black T-shirt and blue jeans, with long hair, singing his guitar and singing his dream of freedom!

The atmosphere at the music festival was pushed to a climax in an instant. The cheers and applause of the audience seemed to be like a tide, and the waves were higher than the waves. Countless people were shouting his name.

"Liao Jia!"

This name is also a symbol of the past era!

After singing the song "Remembrance Day", Liao Jia was already sweating profusely and out of breath.

The years are ruthless, the former rock and roll youth is now old, and his addiction to smoking and alcohol has damaged his health to a large extent.

Let him never return to the peak state of the year.

Like Memorial Day.

It is undeniable that Liao Jia's new rock song is still full of taste, 100% pure blood of Chinese rock, but neither the melody nor the lyrics have much new ideas. "Such classics cannot be compared.

Although the audience was excited by Liao Jia's performance, they were obviously not completely satisfied.

"old man!"

I don't know who yelled first, and it immediately became the main theme of the scene: "Old guy!"

The audience wanted to listen to the old song that condensed the feelings of the country.

Liao Jia did not accidentally meet everyone's request and sang the song "Old Guy" again.

"Old Guy" was written in the late 1990s. It was a classic released by Liao Jia when the country rock was sadly leaving the stage. At that time, this album was regarded as the last glory of the country rock. Since then, Liao Jia has never been able to match it. works out on par.

Nearly twenty years have passed, but the charm of this song has not been lost. On the contrary, it has become more intoxicating with the passage of time. However, Liao Jia's state of mind when he sang this song is already different.

There are too many vicissitudes and helplessness.

Instead, the scene became quiet. Listening to the familiar melody and Liao Jia's no longer young singing voice, many old fans couldn't help crying, or sang along silently or softly.

No matter how unwilling they are, national rock is already a thing of the past, and the 72H Grassland Music Festival cannot save pure rock, just as Liao Jia cannot save national rock.

At this moment, many fans forgave Liao Jia's "betrayal" of rock and roll from the bottom of their hearts.

It is enough to have those years!

Liao Jia felt the emotions of the audience and was deeply affected by them. In the end, his eyes were red too.

Playing the last note, Liao Jia hugged the guitar and bowed deeply.

In this way, he thanked the cutest, most sincere, most loyal... fans!

"Come on!" "Come on!" "Come on!"

The next moment, the same shout sounded like a mountain roar and a tsunami.

This is a request for Liao Jia to return.

According to the regulations of 72H, whether it is a singer or a band, there are only two works on stage at most, but if the performance is good enough and the audience asks to come back, then they can sing another one.

The 72H audience is very picky, and it is not easy to get the approval of most of them. From noon until now, there are only a few singers and bands who have been asked to come back.

After singing two high-intensity works in a row, Liao Jia was not only sweating profusely, but even the cotton shirt on his body was soaked in sweat. However, he did not show the slightest fatigue, but was radiant and radiant. The eyes are amazingly bright.

No one will refuse the request of fans to come back, and Liao Jia is no exception.

The third song he sang is also his famous work-"The Ivy House".

This rock piece is not as intense as "Old Guy", with more nostalgic colors, and the melody and rhythm tend to be light rock style, which is very suitable as the ending song.

Liao Jia's voice was a little hoarse, but "The Ivy House" was still sung with so much flavor that the fans at the scene were mesmerized.

In the end, although there were still many fans who continued to shout "Chong", they tried to keep this rock veteran.

But Liao Jia did not break the 72H regulations, bowed and thanked him again and then stepped down.

He leaves the stage to newcomers.

When Liao Jia returned to the backstage area, all the singers applauded vigorously to express their respect.

Liao Jia smiled and cupped his fists in return: "Thank you, thank you!"

He strode back to Lu Chen's side, sat down on the original seat, reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and asked impatiently, "How is it? Are you still confident?"

That expression looks exactly like a brat who just got a big slingshot to show off to his friends!

Lu Chen smiled and gave him a thumbs up: "Brother Liao is mighty!"

Lu Chen sincerely admired Liao Jia's longevity. Some singers sing better with age. Liao Jia is obviously such a singer. It feels really good to listen to him live.

"You don't come here..."

Liao Jia glared at him, his eyes dimmed a lot: "Actually, I know that the first song I wrote was not very good, and now I can only rely on my laurels to gain popularity."

Lu Chen tried to comfort him: "Brother Liao, you can't say that..."

"You don't need to comfort me!"

Liao Jia shook his head. He patted Lu Chen's shoulder and wiped it off: "The future music scene belongs to you."

Lu Chen really couldn't laugh or cry.

From Liao Jia's end to Lu Chen's performance, there were three singers and a band in the middle. Among them, the three singers who appeared after Liao Jia were not well-known, and the quality of the works they brought was mediocre. Although they sang very hard, they did not win How much applause and recognition from the audience.

The style of the 72H Grassland Music Festival is like this. If you don’t perform well on stage, then don’t expect the audience to give you face. There is no live support here. If a singer asks for applause from the fans, he will only get boos.

But Wednesday's band, who was ahead of Lu Chen, was eye-catching.

Wednesday's band is well-known in the rock circle. The lead singer Shi Gang is an excellent singer-songwriter. His song "Earth Ballad" once became a hit at the 72H Grassland Music Festival and became the hopeful star of rock at that time.

But Wednesday's band has not been popular in the music scene for long, and after releasing two albums, there are not many new works, and they have almost disappeared in recent years.

This year's 72H, Wednesday's band made a comeback with new works, no doubt they have made careful preparations!

One "Lonely City", one "Injury", and two light rock works, both the melody and the lyrics are remarkable. The lead singer Shi Gang's interpretation of these two works is very good, singing enough smell.

So far, there are hundreds of original works presented by singers at this year's music festival, among which "Lonely City" and "Injury" can be regarded as excellent works, especially the latter one "Injury" is even more exciting. The climax of the chorus made the fans feel ups and downs, and applauded one after another.

Without any suspense, after the two original works were sung, Wednesday's band also got the encore treatment.

It was their famous work "Earth Ballad" that they sang back.

"Ten years of sharpening a sword!"

Liao Jia, who was watching the scene in the backstage area, said to Lu Chen: "Gangzi has really matured..."

Lu Chen asked, "Are you friends with him?"

Liao Jia shook his head and said, "It's not that much. We had a few chats with our acquaintances before. Wednesday's band used to hang out in the capital, but then went to the deep sea. I heard that the band didn't do well."

"Now they must want to come back!"

Liao Jia's tone was very natural. The center of the domestic pop music scene has always been in the capital, and singers and bands that do not develop in the capital are not considered important members of the circle no matter how well they mix.

Others, whether in Shanghai or deep sea, belong to the marginalized.

Therefore, if a singer, including a band, wants to realize his ambitions and dreams, the capital city is the only choice.

The 72H Grassland Music Festival is actually a stage for newcomers to realize their dreams.

Wednesday's band has come and gone, and now they're back, they've come prepared and they've put out a good piece.

"Are you stressed?"

Liao Jia smiled and asked Lu Chen: "It's your turn to play next!"

"Have!"

Lu Chen had already stood up and said, "But what I'm least afraid of is pressure!"

If that counts as a challenge, he's more than happy to take on any challenge!

This is Lu Chen's confidence!
