The music lasts forever

Even though I know the ending, even though I haven't heard any of their songs before, even though I've watched any book, movie documentaries, I haven't cried, but I saw them standing on the stage at the last moment, seeing the boiling audience, I still cry and get wet.


Someone said before watching this movie, it's impossible not to cry. I laughed it off, I have never cried at a time like this, all the previous plots are the same as before, this is a movie, more like a documentary, I think so with my arms. But when these old guys stood on the stage of Japan again after 20 years and sang metal on metal, they were instantly full of faces.

Lips was in a low mood when they came on stage. They were the first band to play. 11:35 was always garbage time. He said that I would close my eyes. YY is full of audience because he has experienced a venue with 2,000 people. But only 5 people listened to their performance, he said I would imagine the host saying to him with a worried face, I really can't give you as much as expected, because he has experienced asking the boss's clothes in a tavern. , where is our reward.

But when they came to the stage from the shadows of the stage, the full audience, the boiling audience, ignited the old face of Lips, and the fragile heart like the anvil that has been tempered countless times, he smiled. , like a child, like the high-spirited man who played the piano with an electric rod when he performed on the same stage with Bon Jovi 20 years ago.

30 years, the most brilliant, sturdy, and ideal 30 years in the life of two fifty-year-old uncles. They made 13 albums. Lips and Robb agreed to play rock since they were 14 years old. They have been playing for 30 years. They really did.

The band hasn't changed members since 1995, and there are even people in the band who have to live in the garage. They are usually engaged in food, some decoration, and live a low-level people's life, but they are the band that performed on the same stage in Japan with Scorpions, Whitesnake, and Bon Jovi in ​​1984. After 20 years, which bands will debut later than them. Artists have luxury houses and cars, but they still need to borrow money for their 13th album. The record company said, we don't want you like this.

They used to go on a 40-day tour in Europe, and they didn't make a dime. LIPS blushed in a small bar in Prague, pulled the boss's collar and asked him where our pay was. They slept in their clothes at the station, they chartered a car to the performance venue after missing the train, they still performed with only 5 people, they. . . Didn't make a penny.

When LIPS finally borrowed money to make their 13th album, LIPS finally couldn't stand the pressure and broke out to their friend ROBB for more than 30 years. Mouth full of FUCK like a chrysanthemum bursting out of an old friend, ROBB simply said that I will go.

Things are still so bloody, LIPS finally cried and said, you are my brother, what can I do except complain to you and hug you and cry. In the end, I don't know what the legendary stone with the healing effect of Brother Chun is, but I firmly believe that it is not the stone that heals them, but the heart that has been watching each other for 30 years.

Things took a turn for the worse, and they accepted the invitation again to come to Japan. As I said before, when LIPS stepped onto the stage with a depressed attitude, all the hard work and all the white eyes were burnt at this moment, "We There was 15 minutes of honor, and then he passed" "I feel so lucky to have this moment" "This moment lasted long enough to give me a 30-year career, which is a great achievement"

"Music Forever, of course, debt is also forever, but there is a bottom line, that is, the music is forever"
