In March in Shanghai International Fashion Culture Festival. I am very far away from the original, because someone sent me a few conference of the votes, suddenly there will be some correlation. Show field in the new world of the lake, Xinyu, the white in the darkness where exceptionally bringing a shed, so that reminds me of the "Paris feel" the first episode, when the press conference to do is Chanel, cut a number of days, for fear that the That shed beautiful women and beautiful clothes ruined, and move the people of Shanghai front of the television do not like.
But old people love to recall the past, these words were right. Was going to do, the entrance to the security told me: I am holding the tickets for the next day. Feel oppressed by a second, then thought, Fortunately, girls did not take this matter to recover, otherwise not only can not with bad intentions, it is estimated even before the results had to save a point were all zero, not yellow, you're pretty good. Immediately under the heart relieved.
Friend of a friend Fei brother, is planning musical performances, just before the Xintiandi ARK, so Qucourenao. Granny Liu Jin Grand View Garden, we can not Baipaoyitang.
Seated, Fei brother said that there are two evening performances, first two Japanese musicians, drums; then resident here, bands, called crystal butterflies.
"Crystal Butterfly? Is a Shanghai local rock band that it?"
"Yes ah, very good."
"They acted in National Taiwan Normal University in China, right?"
"Yes, they had previously been mixed over there in China, National Taiwan Normal University."
"Then I saw them perform a few years ago inside the National Taiwan Normal University in China."
Me aside and said, while the memory quickly search a few years that spring night. Found, the exact time in 2000, is located at South China Normal University auditorium. In that Shanghai native rock platter show, the crystal butterfly is the best, although looked a little nervous.
I was to return to Shanghai soon, just to find a job, living in Hongkou is only one bed side table and a cupboard of the house, 7:00 to go out, 19:00 back.
Their lead singer had long hair, their rock is very neutral, and I listen to universities Old Cui, Black Panther, Tang different, a little extravagant Korea, like the city. They arranged an old songs, "Evening Primrose," and finally out to sing, I listened very intoxicated. Electric Bass let me speed up the flow of blood, I am a bit high, mother's escape from authorities, I is free.
After the end of the performance, many of their fans - many of them beautiful women - flocked to the background to go together. And I, 69 from China Normal University to sit the entrance road and then reversing back to Hongkou, then cook instant noodles, run out of meals to meet to lie down, imagine that tomorrow.
Japanese drummer when I forgot the end of the 10 o'clock Crystal Butterfly finally debut. Long-haired lead singer is still wild, still the voice of the electric bass lit my feelings of deja vu. Around me, music, suddenly the time into a sieve, put my four years, those who relentlessly shake off the trivial things that go on the results of the remaining, only in Shanghai, Beijing, no less than two back and forth between the reciprocating motion . I went back to Shanghai, since that carries forward the so-called traveling - until one day when found, they are, after all, is to become a pile of sugar cane residue, no longer virgin no more sweet juice, to nourish the soul refuses to stability.
Fee brother telling me how they and the record companies signed the treaty, and how to get to Beijing recording an album, how to do in-residence band ARK. I listened half-drunk, I could see a group of freedom in music chasing the youth returned to the convention, sophisticated way. They can not escape their fate, like me, can not escape my fate.
Intermission crystal butterflies in the background, ran into the singer. I said to him: "National Taiwan Normal University in China a few years ago, I saw your performance."
"Is it? Should be 99 years, in 2000 it, could no longer remember."
His tone was calm, that in 2000, has become a Chunye bagasse.
Because a non-weekend, crystal butterfly Houban Chang's performance has almost no audience has. In addition to my bar table, leaving only a few flowery Meijuan, they are waiting for the stage played out, and then go home. I thought that the band and I even went to four years ago, the result was that I was wrong: they have found a love, I did not.
"Evening Primrose", they began to sing this song. March of the Yeliangrushui, singing is the city's breath, I gently, and with, smell the intoxicating atmosphere.
