Although James got drunk and made trouble, it made everyone crazy.

But firstly, Matt is unpopular. Seeing him in bad luck, everyone has no time to gloat over his misfortune, and will not take the initiative to say a word for him; But there are other hotels, which are a little troublesome at best, but it's not a big deal.

Therefore, everyone seized the opportunity, and after scolding the lead singer, they stopped holding on to this matter.

At the time, the entire Planet Tour crew knew that their lead singer was drinking.

But apart from Davis, almost no one has really intervened in this matter.

Even Lance just took care not to let him get on stage drunk.

It's not that everyone doesn't care about him, but it has something to do with the national conditions of Great Britain as a whole.

Britain is a country where everyone drinks alcohol.

Someone was knocked down by a car on the road, and the first thing he did when he got up was to walk to the bar next to him. Beer bottles' wonderful work.

Therefore, the British people's love for wine is simply engraved in their genes, and the atmosphere of the whole country is like this. The streets are full of young people wandering around with wine bottles.

In contrast, although his lead singer always likes to have a few drinks when he is free, most of the time he just drinks beer obediently and doesn't delay things at all.

But at the same time, James found some of the benefits of alcohol.

Continuous performances have made him extremely mentally exhausted, and performances often require passion.

Usually, if the audience responds enthusiastically, it can also give emotional feedback to the performer.

But in fact, this kind of situation is very rare. Most of the performances rely on the performers to try their best to stir up the atmosphere, mobilize the emotions of the audience, and then interact with them.

In this way, the pressure on the performers themselves is enormous.

The most difficult thing is the control of emotions. No one can always control themselves and keep their emotions on the passing line.Even as optimistic as James, there will occasionally be moments of depression, and at this time, a few glasses of wine can often make people excited as soon as possible and enter the proper state.

Maybe the reason is not enough.

But for a lead singer who is already addicted to alcohol, this reason is very sufficient!

James immediately used this as an excuse to demand that he must be able to drink a few sips before going on stage.

The situation was...

Bill agreed almost immediately, not to mention a few sips, but a few bottles, as long as he performed well on stage; Davis firmly objected; Too strict; Lance objected, but he was not particularly firm in his objection.

And so, the last few shows in America...

James managed to win the 'drink before going on stage' treatment; while Lance took the initiative to assume the responsibility of supervision and never let him have an extra sip.

In this period……

It can be said that everyone is revolving around the uneasy lead singer.

no way!

In a band, the treatment and rights of the lead singer are always the highest.

And James does seem to need someone to watch.

Strange to say, since he joined the band, there have been many disasters, such as broken arms, fever, and tooth decay...

Although every time, he was uncomfortable and had no choice but to hold on to the stage, danced and danced for two hours, and after singing the whole audience, there was nothing wrong with him, and his tenacious vitality was comparable to Xiaoqiang.

But everyone always has a feeling that "if you don't look at him, something will happen".

But never expected...

During the last performance, the troubled lead singer was fine, and the guitarist, who had always been extremely healthy, suffered from food poisoning and went directly to the hospital for gastric lavage.What's even more amazing is that the two are inseparable, and they still eat the same thing.

"Now, do you know who is the real Princess and the Pea?" James took the opportunity to tease.

Lying on a hospital bed, Lance gave him a harmless look of anger.

According to the doctor, the condition is not serious.

The only problem is that Lance looks so weak that he can't hold on to the stage.

The people from the tour team gathered together and discussed in embarrassment what to do with the evening performance?

James gave a direct suggestion: "Refund the money, there is no way to perform without a guitarist."

Bill, the tour manager, hurriedly used the example of the 'Lance strike': "But last time, after Lance left the stage first, you didn't..."

"It was an accident. I was standing on the stage and couldn't stop, so I could only sing like that, but the effect was actually pretty shitty."

James replied decisively: "But now, it is clear that the performance will not be good, so it is better to refund the audience's money as soon as possible. Anyway, we have traveled more than half of the United States, and this is the last show."

"We still have time, maybe we can find a temporary guitar player to replace it?" Davis suddenly suggested.

"No, I don't cooperate with other guitarists." James replied without thinking.

However, drummer Baldwin replied relatively tactfully: "Strangers may not be able to cooperate well with us."

Bassist Theo nodded in agreement.

Obviously, none of them wanted to work with an unfamiliar guitarist.

For a while, things froze.

At this time, Matt came running again.

He began to use various reasons to convince James that they would continue to perform: "Remember those pigeon shits? There were a lot of pigeon shit audiences in the audience this time (James: How do you know? Have you investigated?), they didn't care about the performance again. Encountering the risk of pigeon shit, rushing to see your show, if you can’t see it, how disappointed you will be! (James: ...) Besides, besides them, those loyal fans who follow you every day are also very pitiful .This is the band's last show in the US, you can't be so cruel to them!"

James, Baldwin and Theo looked at each other, not knowing what to make for a moment.

Before that, the big and small things of the band were actually decided by the worrying Lance, and the three of them really didn't take the initiative to decide anything.

At this time, Matt tactfully mentioned the issue of the contract between them, and said that if they really don't perform, not only will the ticket refund be refunded, but a lot of liquidated damages may also be paid out.

He repeated it back and forth so softly and forcefully...

James and the others hesitated: "But, the guitarist?"

Matt immediately patted his chest and promised: "I have a ready candidate. Don't worry, I will call him now."

I have to say that Matt is annoying, and it is definitely unique to be the person in charge of the American BHD Music Company.

James had done such disrespectful things to him when he was drunk before, but now he can appear again as if nothing happened, and what to do, his attitude towards the band has remained unchanged.

Although his hype and propaganda methods have been very disgusting and disgusting.

But if one can stand in his position, no one can pick out any loopholes from the perspective of work alone.

In short, under his repeated pestering...

James had to reluctantly agree to meet the so-called temporary guitarist candidate.

Matt said swearingly: "Don't worry, you are absolutely qualified!"

Perhaps in order to ease the atmosphere, he also made a joke: "Don't worry, this guitarist doesn't make music in his job, and he won't steal Lance's job."

Stealing Lance's job?

That depends on whether you have the ability!

James was the first to smirk twice, and said a little mockingly: "Veryinteresting!"

However, what I didn't expect was that the guitarist recommended by Matt looked really good!Very familiar!

Even Theo couldn't help hesitating and whispered to James: "Jimmy, look, does he look like that scissorhands?"

"What the hell? Cut what?"

James hasn't reacted yet.

The drummer Baldwin on the side probably only thought that these two people were not doing their jobs properly.At this time, Lance, who has always been in charge, is not there, and only he is the oldest and most reliable.

So, he took the initiative to ask on behalf of the band: "What's your name?"

The handsome man in a jacket and T-shirt, with a cool Indian chief tattoo on his arm, introduced himself: "Johnny Depp."

Johnny Depp, Edward Scissorhands? ? ! ! !

James, who was drinking beer, sprayed it out.

Baldwin hurriedly dodged aside, looking at him with disgust: "Jimmy!"

But James ignored him at all, and stared blankly at the guy who called himself Johnny Depp with his green eyes, only to find out that it really was Edward from "Edward Scissorhands"!

He couldn't help but blurt out: "You know what? Unlike Hollywood, guitarists don't have to look at their faces, but they must be able to play the guitar."

Johnny Depp laughed.

James immediately emphasized: "I'm not fucking joking."

Depp nodded.

Then, without any excuses, he took out the electric guitar from behind, and started to bend over to connect the speaker, while asking: "I can play it for you now. What do you want to hear? [CrazyNeverDie]? [ Witch]?"

Next...

Well, he played it kind of like that.

But in rehearsals in the afternoon, James was quickly disappointed.

It's not Depp's fault, it's mainly because he's too profligate.

Lance's on-the-spot skills are first-rate, so he is always allowed to sing on the stage, whatever he wants to sing, and he can sing whatever he wants. Anyway, no matter what he sings, the guitar can always keep up, even if he is not careful. Singing out of tune (this kind of problem hasn't happened for a long time), it's okay, the big deal is to change the melody and still turn the out of tune into a positive tune, so that the audience can't hear it.

Crans isn't here...

He can only sing well-behaved.

This is not just a question of guitar skills, but also a question of tacit understanding between people.

Therefore, James can only miss the days when Lance was by his side, while trying to cultivate a tacit understanding with his temporary partner.

During this process, he casually asked curiously: "Aren't you an actor? Why did you suddenly want to play rock and roll?"

Depp smiled and replied: "Being an actor is to make a living, and rock and roll is a dream."

The author has something to say: [Note] Pirates of the Caribbean was set in 2003, and it was not 2003 before Jimmy was reborn, so he only knows Edward Scissorhands.

Introduce Johnny Depp, a well-known rock fan, whose idol is the guitarist of the Rolling Stones.He persevered in chasing stars, tried every means to break into the idol's social circle, saved the country with various curves, and finally met the idol's son. Since then, he has been in the idol's house persistently for two years, and was almost regarded as a drug dealer. It was not until years later that he was recognized, and he chased his idol into a father (no!

Don't get me wrong... In Pirates of the Caribbean III, his idol just cameoed as Captain Jack's father!If you search for Pirates of the Caribbean 3, you should have this anecdote.

But in any case, Depp set an example for the brainless fans all over the world.

PS. Johnny Depp has had a lot of negative news in recent years, and I don't want to pay attention to it. Anyway, I love Captain Jack.
