"How many times, facing cold eyes and ridicule, never giving up the ideals in my heart ..." Every Tuesday or Friday afternoon, the sound rhyme band always played music in the Shamian Park, attracting passers -by to stop watching and becoming a scene of the park.

At 3 pm on July 19th, under the big banyan tree of the Shamian Park, the members of the sound band were prepared before the performance -take out the musical instruments, set a good score, and then pull the foam plate to sit down at most. The wrist bone, the posture was opened. When the singer cleared the voice, walked to the central government, and today's performance opened on time.

In the melodious music, the band members were very eye -catching and looked at them, all of which were older. The age is not the point. In music, they cross the wind and frost, and the vicissitudes are vivid and vivid. Yi Ran's self -procurement and high -level performance soon attracted a large number of passers -by. The onlookers are not unusual for the sound rhyme band. Such performances have been more than ten years. I can't remember which day. They decided to officially start. There are divergent opinions, but one thing is surprisingly consistent: "At this age, the word is not happy.

For more than ten years, there are more than a weekly performance per week

"(The band was established) has twists and turns, but it is still smooth, mainly because everyone has that heart to gather together to persist for more than ten years." The head of the regiment Yin Xiaolan (pseudonym) recalled that at the beginning, it was just a group of old friends who had similar interests and often. Gathering, I don't know which day, the idea of ​​setting up an orchestra was up. Yin Xiaolan had taken this matter, and the band members respected her "Sister Yin".

Sister Yin has also formed other bands over the years. After several gatherings, I finally decided to build a sound rhyme band with another leader Huang Dongsheng. The sound of "sound rhyme", every Tuesday and Friday from 3 pm to 6 pm, fixed in the Sand Park performance, most of the songs are mainly classic Cantonese songs, and they insist on for more than ten years.

For more than a decade, there have been several rounds of members' flow alternation. Now there are 18 members of the Voice Band, 6 of them, playing guitar, bass, drums and other instruments. Most of the rest are singers, turning in turns to open their voice and sing songs. Most of the band members have passed the year of flower armor, but they are not ambiguous about the performance. Before each performance, the track must be confirmed in detail. As one of the bones of the band, Yin Xiaolan undertook the job, organized the songs reported by the members in advance into a song list, and carefully marked the song lyrics. Several musicians have also cooperated for many years, and have long been tacit.

The musicians are full of situation, Qu Yun's singing is melodious, and the music is extremely happy. The singer will take a dance step and jump up proudly. Every beginning, we can win the applause. "In fact, our level can already be compared with some elderly performance groups, which is enough to perform on stage, but we don't like it, it is better in the park, and more comfortable." Sister Yin said.

Although not fame and fortune, the sound rhyme band also has some reputation. A few years ago, some passers -by filmed their performances and put them on the Internet, praising them as "the highest -level band in Guangzhou". Netizens praised one after another, and some messages said: "It feels very warm in heart, and the whole person slows down." "Not only the old people watching the side, but also many young people, each singing, when everyone applauded them together, everyone applauded them together. It really made me feel infected by the city of Guangzhou. "

Such a high level made many people can't help guess whether this is a group of professionals.

In fact, the singers of the Voice Band have basically not been in vocal classes. They persisted only with their hobbies, and most of the musicians who were praised by everyone were self -taught. The electric guitarist Huang Dongsheng said: "How can I take any serious lessons, I like it, depending on how others play, remember their techniques, and come back to explore themselves." After the reform and opening up, he performed in the ballroom accompaniment for a while for a while for a while for a while for a while for a while for a while for a while for a while. At that time, I just learned the instrument. "In fact, at that time, the level was not very good. It was a bit flickering, but it was also possible, and they accepted it." Huang Dongsheng joked.

In retrospect, most members are full of emotions. When they were young, they were trapped by life. Even though they loved music, they had to put aside aside and went to their livelihoods. Until retirement, they gathered together. They remembered that each other had such a hobby. Even I have never received formal training and full of passion, and regaining their vocals. The original intention was simply "looking back on my time".

During the performance gap, the band members talked

Retirement refuses to lie in the flat song and break the waves

Among the members, Huang Dongsheng is undoubtedly the most conspicuous one. Although the body is thin, but the spirit is 铄, the hair is raised, and the ponytails are brought together. A few strands of white hair are not dazzling. He held the electric guitar, Fuqin's left hand was revealed, the right hand of the string was relaxed, and from time to time, he raised his head from time to time. The clustered beard trembled with the rhythm, "the appearance of an old rock man", the online onlookers can't help but comment. "This guitar grandfather is estimated to spend long ago. In fact, it's all vicissitudes of the world. "

Huang Dongsheng, 64, did not convince the old. Due to the long time to play musical instruments, and the organizational band, he was already a celebrity in the Shamian Park. Everyone met him and usually shouted "Sheng Brother". "I'm proud, I don't recognize the old." Sheng Brother thought that he had rebelled from an early age, and he secretly saved money. "How do you have any money, in the 1970s (20th century), two cents, a bowl of porridge, a bonus of four cents, a messenger of six cents, and a genuine red cotton card for 36 yuan." Huang Dongsheng was worried about this, and finally raised it all the time. At that time, the first guitar in his life at a musical instrument shop in the nineteen roads at a musical instrument shop in Jiuzu, even if it was a sub -product. In 1975, Huang Dongsheng, who had just graduated from middle school, entered Baiyun Farm and became a mechanical worker. He dealt with cold parts in eight hours of work. Once he got off the class, he played fiercely with music. He rode on a small motorcycle. "Go to the Four Township", wear a fashionable white flared pants, and put on a suit. Accompanied by the major ballrooms, Disco dances sounds, and is drunk in music.

In order to better perform, Huang Dongsheng, who was only 24 yuan a monthly salary at that time, gritted his teeth. He took a huge sum of money at a stationery store in Beijing Road and bought a electric guitar. So far he can still remember the guitar. Brown. "

The sound rhyme band is not the first band involved in Huang Dongsheng. As a "private bureau" enthusiast, as early as 2010, he established the "70th Band" with a group of like -minded friends. Members have been "enthusiasts" who have liked music since the 1970s. Liuhua Park has been their "main stage". Now it will still perform in Sand Park every Wednesday. "My wife often teases me and asked me, have you played enough?" Huang Dongsheng waved his hand, "I don’t know how to play enough, I don’t play when I can't play. How to play."

Most members of the Sound Rhyme Band feel the same. When you are young, you want to pick it up when you are old. The biggest wish is just happy and comfortable. "People are at this age. What is really happy, the mentality is good, and people are young. "

Beshwo Luo Zhanwen has not been in the lower ten bands. He was reprimanded by his family to play guitar from an early age. After retirement, he circulated in the band and deliberately enjoyed the music life.

Sister Cha, Sister Cha, likes to sing and dance since childhood. Because of her height, she is not up to the standards. It is a great regret for her to entertain the army. It can be made up to join the band. "I just like fresh feelings. At least wearing a little black and white, but I am not afraid, I walked on the street in a big red skirt. "Sister Cha recalled that when I was young," I can't sit still. When I hear the music, I feel itchy. This is the secret of young. " With a lot of ghost ideas, she proposed to Sister Yin to set the rules of "forgetting to be invited" to the band members.

Singer Chen Zesong has worked as a metallurgical system before retiring. After retiring, he has joined the sound rhyme band in the past two years. Whenever he performed, he lived near Yide Road, and he needed to walk for half an hour. Although cooking and taking care of the elderly, although there are some running, he is as sweet as, "Every time he sings, it will be discharged from bad emotions.

Not all members are talking about. At the interview site, there are also silent elderly people who have very little words and shy avoidance, but as soon as they come to the show, they seem to have changed their spirits. I am melodious, and from time to time, I also control the field. I invite the crowd to dance together, and it is not like the twilight scene.

Music connection and friendship are beautiful scenery

The performance of the sound rhyme is already a small scene in the Shamian Park. Along the way, they also have their own exclusive fan groups. Many fans are in the gap between the singing, and they will also raise their mobile phones to record the band's performance and share them in the WeChat fan group.

The 76 -year -old Liu Xiaolin has been "chasing the stars" for three years, and rarely missed the band performance. In his opinion, the sound rhyme band selected the classics, and the singing was quite tone. Recently, high -temperature weather is successive, and the band members performed against the scorching sun. Liu Xiaolin sometimes invited everyone to eat watermelon to relieve tiredness and was affectionately called "Uncle Watermelon" by the band members.

Between the band and the audience, more like friends. Occasionally, Liu Xiaolin also brought a bell drum and joined the band's performance. Sister Yin once gave him a Hawaiian guitar.

In addition to admiring music, performances have become a connection. During the performance period, her mother -in -law always urged her granddaughter to push her wheelchair to bring her to the scene, in order to listen to music, and to gather with old friends. "A group of old sisters like to make a piece when the band performances, listen to music together, and talk about family, so as not to be lonely." Mother -in -law Wang's granddaughter said, "The performances of the band grandparents are in our distance Famous, everyone is willing to come to the show, it seems that there is a reason that can meet each other. "

Perhaps at the same time as entertainment, the music of the Yun Yun Band has also become a comfort. In 2014, Lao Zhang wandered from his hometown of Shunde to Guangzhou. At the age of 54, he now lives on waste. In 2015, Lao Zhang paid attention to the performance of the sound rhyme band, and quietly appreciated from not far away to gradually get closer. Now he has become a "ashes -level fan". While waving his hands, he looked like a professional music critic. Due to this fixed project every week, Lao Zhang broke the boredom of "doing nothing" before. He had no relatives and unsure in Guangzhou, and found the asylum in wandering in street music. All of this, the members of the vocal band are in their eyes. Therefore, every time they perform their best, they cherish this fate very much. "People need to cherish fate." They said that it is not easy to meet an old friend. Sister Yin described the fate of the band members is "Le Ju". After the performance, the dinner at the nearby stall has become their hearts. The tacit understanding, celebrating your birthday together, playing together, enjoying retirement together, continued to break the waves at the age of "lying down", and the audience who came together with the songs, used music to create a beautiful scenery in the corner of Guangzhou.

On July 19, it was the birthday of the old horse. After playing the last song, the members of the Voice Band began to clean up, preparing to dinner together for the old Ma Qingsheng, and the crowds gradually dispersed.

"Are you a fixed performance? I don't know if you are still there next time?"

"Yes, as long as you come, we are all there, and there is nothing to do when we are old. Everyone listens to music together!"

Band member

Burst: Sister Yin

Sister Yin's father is the trumpet of the Haizheng Song and Dance Troupe. The neat records in the family constitute her earliest imagination of music. She joked: "I will be born when many songs are born, maybe prenatal education." She is one of the earliest organizers of the vocal band and one of the few members who have received professional vocal training. They will sing English songs. It's a good play.

After the whole performance, except for the time for the stage, Sister Yin almost adjusted the on -site equipment before busy, and the band members respectful of her, and consciously followed the formal rules: Sister Yin was responsible for arranging song lists in accordance with needs, the order order order order order order order After the determination, it will no longer change, and the leave should be advanced. "If you are late, you can't go back if you miss it in order.

Electric Guitarist: Sheng Brother

The band's soul figure, a electric guitar flew up, claiming that "the audience may not like to listen to me playing guitar, but like to watch me playing guitar." focus. It was affected by foreign music. The first song of learning was the Indonesian folk song "Oh, Mom". Xicheng Xiushu was his idol when he was young. To this end, he also studied Japanese in the night school.

When he was young, he had long hair, and he also quarreled with the factory director of the factory for this time. Before retiring, Sheng Ge had a property management in the property company. The company stipulated that long hair and long beard were allowed, but he belonged to the "special circumstances". Because of the mixed fish and dragons in the management, the company had been beards to "deter" others.

Temperament: Sister Tea

If you want to recommend the "facade" of the band, most members will mention the tea sister, "counting her most temperament." Sister tea is beautiful, exquisite in makeup, dignified in manners, can speak kindly, can sing happily, and will go with it with happiness. The music dance is good at the active atmosphere. Sister Yin calls her the "Minister of Foreign Affairs" of the Voice Band.

Sister tea pursues new things, and she has rushed to fashion since childhood. Others dare not wear skirts. She went out of the street with a big red skirt. When she was in middle school, she started designing clothes by herself. She was often used by her mother's workers. Sister Cha said that she has loved to play and make trouble for decades. When I was young, when I encountered frustration such as emotional problems, I couldn't think of it, I couldn't sleep, my body was not very good, and the size of the body continued. "I haven't seen the doctor very much."

Bassist: Luo Zhanwen

When Luo Zhanwen was young, few people still understood bass and play bass in China. The guitar was all over. The guy wanted to come up with a hand. Lao Luo was no exception. He will "vomit" with reporters: "It's hard to do, don't understand."

Because bass is "difficult", the major band Best is very popular. In addition to obsessed with music, Lao Luo moves in different bands. Essence Lao Luo also had high requirements for music, and hoped that the sound rhyme band would continue to develop and improve, "you can have a keyboard player."
