I first went to hear a live rock concert when I was eight years old. My brother
and his friends were all
36 of a heavy metal group called Black Wednesday. When they
37 that Black Wednesday were going to perform at our local theatre, they all bought
38 for performance. However, at the last minute, one of the friends couldn’t go, so my brother
39 me the ticket. I was really
40 !
I remember the buzz (嘈杂声) of excitement inside the theatre as we all found our
41 . After a few minutes, the lights went down and everybody became
42 . I could barely make out the stage in the
43 . We waited. Then there was a roar from the crowd, like an explosion, as the first members of the band
44 the stage. My brother leaned over and shouted something in my ear, but I couldn’t
45 what he was saying. The first song was already starting and the music was as
46 as a jet engine. I could
47 the drum beats and bass notes in my stomach.
I can’t recall any of the songs that the band played. I just
48 that I really enjoyed the show and didn’t want it to
49 . But in the end, after three encores (加演), the show finished. We left the
50 and walked unsteadily out onto the pavement. I felt a little dizzy, as if I had just
51 from a long sleep. My ears were still
52 with the beat of the last song.
After the
53 , I became a Black Wednesday fan too for a few years before getting into other kinds of music. Once in a while,
54 , I listen to one of their songs and
55 I’m back at that first show.
