Chapter 138 The New Bassist

Adventure Corps is a bunch of nerds.

Therefore, although the bass player Sanderson has a quarter of black blood, dark skin, thick lips, and a curly head, his personality is not at all the hearty and hearty that is common to black people. She is shy and doesn't like to talk, which is completely different from Theo's character before.

So much so that when everyone first met, they didn't know how to communicate. Fortunately, playing music doesn't require language.

When he and Baldwin played together, two songs first, James and Lance looked at each other, relieved, and realized: Here we go, we finally have a fucking bassist again.

But the style of the song is still a bit different.

The flamboyant and playful feeling of the youth disappeared, in exchange for a more beautiful and relaxed rhythm, which is a remnant of the melodious and unhurried magical style of the adventure band.

But that's nothing at all.

Anyway, in the future, there will be more days to slowly run in.

However, since the people are gathered together, the first thing to do is to solve the lead singer's matter first.

That is to say, James promised the local court to help XX school put on a small performance to raise funds for them to buy school buses.

Although it is only a small performance, it is still a charity that does not charge money.

But this is indeed the first performance of the planetary band after changing members. Everyone wants to do it well and treat it as a training session.

But before the performance started, the lead singer and the guitarist quarreled during the rehearsal.

"I'm going to sing [she's 16] first and then [CrazyNeverDie]," James demanded.

"No, I said it earlier, sing [God's spell] first." Lance said decisively.

"I've sung these songs almost [-] times, and now I don't sell the records, why can't I change to the old ones?" James said annoyed.

"Which song hasn't been sung [-] times? If it bothers you, don't be the lead singer of the band, go to the street to perform, no one cares what you sing."

Lance insisted: "I have the final say on this matter. The band is mine. Sing [God's spell] first."

"I'm the fucking lead singer! How come you own the band, fuck!"

"Stop fucking nonsense, this is my band, the band I formed, and I even recruited you."

"Did you forget? You haven't paid my salary 800 years ago. What a shitty boss, I fired you long ago."

"Do you want it now? I'll pay you now."

"Fuck off! It's only two fucking pounds a week."

"Hehe, I still think it's too much now."

Baldwin took a cloth and wiped the drumsticks calmly, and asked from the side: "Hey, have you discussed it? What is the first song going to be?"

James & Lance: "[She's 16 years old]" "[God's spell]"

"Are you fucking against me!"

"Don't get nervous, I never fight against idiots!"

"You're the idiot, the idiot!"

"Wake up, you haven't gotten an A in any subject!"

"what?"

"I got A's in all my previous exams, idiot!"

The new bass player Sanderson watched all this with a dull expression, full of confusion.

Then, he looked around and decided to ask the only normal person in the room, plus the senior of the band—drummer Baldwin: "Uh, they...are they quarreling like this? Are we okay? Shall we go over and persuade him?" , what if there is a fight?"

Baldwin raised his head and asked inexplicably, "A fight? Hasn't it started yet?"

He comforted the newcomer patiently: "It's okay, don't worry, it will be fine in a while."

The voice just fell...

With a 'bang', Lance kicked the chair James was sitting on down: "Shut up, shut up! Listen to me!"

"Fuck, bitch! Are you fucking plotting against me?"

Because the chair was kicked down, James, who almost fell to the ground, jumped up, grabbed the teacup on the table with his teeth and claws, and threw it back.

"I'm making trouble for no reason all day long!"

Lance responded furiously, and slapped a book over: "So what if I do it?"

Immediately there was the sound of ping-pong-pong smashing things in the room.

Everything started to break away from gravity, flying around in the air...

Sanderson, the new bassist, was on the verge of tears.

He hurriedly grabbed Baldwin's arm and asked, "Is this what you said for a while? My God! What kind of band did I join? Is it a fight now, or what should I do?"

Baldwin looked at him with a puzzled face, and asked in confusion, "What's the matter with you? Isn't this a normal thing? Don't your adventurers bands never quarrel?"

"We quarreled, but..."

Sanderson shook his head frantically and said, "That's not how we quarrel!"

"What's that like? No hands?"

Baldwin asked curiously.

"Doyle will say that he will never talk to you again, and then run out."

Sanderson recalled: "We sometimes went too far and said, Doyle, you are so annoying..."

At this time, behind the two chatting...

A sound like background sound sounded, all kinds of 'Fuckyou! Shit! Gotohell' started playing in a loop over and over again.

Sanderson listened to countless curses beginning with F, and couldn't speak anymore for a while.

"Ugh...that sounds so gentle!" Baldwin sighed, thinking, "Someone else's band."

Then, he stretched out his hands to press Sanderson's head quickly and shouted: "Low your head!"

Sanderson lowered his head subconsciously, just avoiding a tea coaster that was accidentally thrown over.

He stared blankly at the tea coaster that fell by his feet, although it wouldn't hurt very much if it was dropped.But why is Baldwin able to take things like "skilled avoiding hidden weapons" as a matter of habit?What the hell is this band?

"What? Do you want to join in too?" Baldwin saw him looking down at the tea coaster, and based on his previous experience with Theo, he thought that this one was also eager to join the 'team sports'.

But considering how hard it was to recruit Bess, he rarely mentioned some experience of the other party: "If no one else participates, in this case, you should not participate. Theo was a bit stupid back then, and always wanted to follow him. The two played together. But every time they got in, the two bastards turned enemies into friends and jointly attacked foreign enemies. Every time Theo ended badly. So listen to me, don't meddle, stand by the side Just watch."

Sanderson asked with a sad face, "You call this a joke?"

Baldwin was stunned: "I didn't really hit it, and I didn't see any blood. Why isn't it called playing?"

Didn't really fight?Is it okay if there is no blood?

At this moment, the novice Bass was extremely suffocated: "Why hasn't this kind of band disbanded yet! Why did the friendly band of our adventure group disband? I don't understand! I don't understand!"

But no matter how much he can't figure it out...

The lead singer and the guitarist had a scuffle and messed up the rehearsal, but they compromised with each other and decided to sing [You are my star] at the beginning. Stop singing.

Sanderson: ...so what was the fight about?

But this is not the end, and there are more tiring things to come.

After competing for the opening song, they still have to fight over what to sing in the last song; after competing for the repertoire of the performance, they continue to fight over how to wear the costume; after competing for the costume, they still have to fight over what to eat at noon...

"It can't be like this, you can't trick me!"

Sanderson asked Baldwin a little worriedly again: "Dude, tell me the truth! Is this band disbanding too? I can't switch from one disbanded band to another disbanded band!"

Baldwin immediately showed a smile that has been tempered for many years, stabilized the overall situation, and comforted people's hearts.

He said calmly: "Don't worry, don't worry, just calm down."

Just when Sanderson thought his next words were the consolation of 'we will definitely not disband'...

The mature-looking drummer told him with a smile: "Isn't it exciting enough to be in a band that will suddenly disband at any time? This is also the fun, brother! RockN'Roll!"

At this moment, the new bassist Sanderson finally understood the meaning of the word 'like attracts like'.

But now, the contract has been signed, the external news has been released, and he has already boarded the thief ship, so it is difficult to think about it.

Fortunately, though before the show, lead singer James and guitarist Lance got into an endless row together.

But as Baldwin said, nothing really happened.

They just have different personalities, ideas and habits, so they are very prone to disputes, but most of these disputes do not hurt feelings.

As for throwing things at each other, it is basically similar to the expression of little girls throwing dolls at each other, except that they are relatively more vicious and destructive.

At this point, Sanderson feels a little relieved, and finally doesn't have to worry about being unemployed after being employed.

But he didn't know that new challenges in his career were still emerging one after another.

On that day's performance, the Planetary Band appeared on the stage with a new lineup.

James' song [You Are The Star] successfully set off the first small climax of the night.Although it is a simple and small venue, under the light, his long golden hair is like a burning golden flame; as for Lance's guitar, he plays the guitar affectionately, and the black-haired guitarist is handsome with the music. Swaying his body, he is as handsome and sexy as the lead singer; Baldwin's drumming is extremely stable, with a sense of authority; and although the newcomer Sanderson is still unfamiliar with the Planetary Band, he has excellent skills, After being willing to be a human being, she made contributions silently, so there was no problem in cooperating throughout the whole process.

After winning the first burst of applause from the audience, Sanderson, who was making his debut after all, finally relaxed his tense nerves and thought: "It seems that there is nothing wrong with it."

But the next moment, he was an idiot!

The lead singer, James, swayed a tambourine on the stage to incite the audience suddenly: "What song do you want to hear, tell me louder!"

The audience below were really not polite at all, shouting in unison: "<She is 16 years old this year>!"

There are also other songs, but most people want to listen to <She is 16 years old this year>.

Because the Planetary Band has been busy promoting their new album these days, it has been a long time since they sang their previous songs live.

James' eyes lit up immediately, happy.

He smiled triumphantly at Lance, his teeth were sharp, and he jingled the tambourine provocatively: "Okay! Let's sing together!"

Lance looked away dismissively, but didn't object.

Baldwin's expression didn't change at all, and he started playing the prelude to "She's 16 years old" as usual.

But the beating of the drum made Sanderson almost want to vomit blood: "I fucking practiced the repertoire for today's performance all night yesterday! Come here for me on the spot!"

No way, let's go from memory!

It's time to test your performance on the spot!

Just finished playing a song...

Guitarist Lance was not reconciled to only the lead singer making trouble, so he went to grab the microphone without showing weakness, and announced: "The next song [God's spell]."

Sanderson, who has been honest for half his life, wanted to pick up the bass for a moment and smash the two scourges in the center of the stage to death.

Fortunately, the performance ended smoothly.

But when he got off the stage, Sanderson was sweating all over, nervous, and concentrating. In addition to the pressure brought by the premiere, he was about to die.

Thinking about the days to come...

He mustered up the courage to protest to James and Lance: "Dude, you can't do this! It's too sudden. If I don't practice those few songs, wouldn't there be a performance accident?"

Lance asked in a matter-of-fact (harsh) tone: "Brother, when you join a band, shouldn't you practice all the band's songs?"

Sanderson: "But I'm only here for the third day."

James patted him on the shoulder from behind, then naturally put his arms around his neck, and said with a playful smile, "But buddy, this is life!"

He said with good reason: "Life is about being unprepared! We come into this world unprepared, deal with this world unprepared, and leave this world unprepared! Who the hell knows what will happen tomorrow What? So, always get ready! Get ready! Well, now that the show is over, don't even think about it. Come on, let's cheer together! Yeah——! Yeah——!"

The new bass player looked at these people blankly: [My name is Sanderson, and today is the third day of my new job... I want to quit. ]
