[新聞] 頭子:嘻哈攻佔 Glastonbury 是錯誤的
Hip-hop 'wrong' for Glastonbury
By Colin Paterson
Noel Gallagher has criticised the decision to have a hip-hop act
headlining the Glastonbury Festival.
諾爾‧蓋勒格批評了嘻哈音樂在 Glastonbury 壓軸的決定。
The Oasis guitarist said having rapper Jay-Z at the festival was
the reason tickets had not sold out this year.
綠洲的結他手表示 Jay-Z 是讓今年音樂祭的票還沒賣完的罪魁禍首。
He said it was "wrong" to have a hip-hop headliner and added that
organisers had changed things too much.
There were 100,000 tickets sold for Glastonbury on the first day,
but in past years all tickets had sold out in a matter of hours.
今年在門票開賣的首日即賣出十萬張票,但過往數年所有票都在開賣後
數小時內賣光光。
Gallagher said: "If it ain't broke don't fix it.
"If you start to break it then people aren't going to go. I'm
sorry, but Jay-Z? No chance.
"Glastonbury has a tradition of guitar music and even when they
throw the odd curve ball in on a Sunday night you go 'Kylie
Minogue?'
"I don't know about it. But I'm not having hip-hop at Glastonbury.
It's wrong."
蓋勒格:“如果東西沒有壞掉就不要修理它。
“如果你開始破壞它,人們將不會參與。我很抱歉,但是 Jay-Z?別鬧了。
“Glastonbury 有著結他音樂的傳統─ 即使他們在週日夜晚丟出了「凱莉
‧米諾」的詭異曲球。
“我不知道耶,但我絕不會去 Glastonbury 嘻哈,這是錯的。
Oasis headlined the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury in 1995 and 2004,
with the event selling out on both occasions.
綠洲在一九九五及二零零四年的 Glastonbury 擔任壓軸團,這兩年的
票都銷售一空。
Gallagher also rubbished recent stories saying Oasis were ready
to "do a Prince" and have a residency at London's O2 Arena.
"We'll never play the O2," he said. "We went there to see Led
Zeppelin and to be honest the gig was fantastic, but it was the
most soul destroying venue I've ever been to.
"And much to our manager and agent's disappointment, we came back
and said we would never play there.
"So it means we are going to have to do 640 nights at Earl's Court,
I would have thought.
"It's too Americanised for me, and it's too far away. Any gig you
can get to by boat that hasn't got a beach is wrong."
頭子也駁斥了綠洲將在倫敦 O2 Arena 表演的八卦。
He did confirm that Oasis' seventh studio album had been completed.
"That's finished. All done. We're just kind of waiting to get a
record deal and get it out.
"We've not managed to get a title yet. We're in the middle of
doing the artwork. Down to a shortlist of about three. The first
single? That will be four-and-half minutes long."
新專輯部分,已經確認綠洲的第七張專輯已經完成。
“已經結束了,全都搞定。我們現在就在等唱片合約到手然後發行。
“我們還沒決定專輯名稱─ 現在正在專輯美工的階段 ─ 名單已經
縮減到剩三個左右。首支單曲?將會有四分半鐘長。
Battle of the bands
When asked if Oasis were still Britain's biggest band, or whether
the Arctic Monkeys had taken over that mantle, Noel admitted: "We'll
be bigger than them in terms of ticket sales, but they'll probably
sell slightly more records than us.
"But then again, they've got about 20 years on us. So see where they
are in 2089, or whenever it is they'll be my age."
不列顛第一大團之爭。
被問到現在英倫第一大團是綠洲還是北極潑猴,頭子誠實地說:“我們巡迴
的票賣的比他們多;但他們可能唱片賣的比我們多一~低低。”
Meanwhile, Glastonbury organisers took out an advert in Monday's
Guardian newspaper to encourage ticket sales.
The ad invites people to "take a five-day break at Worthy Farm and
enjoy the most extraordinary festival anywhere in the world".
The full line-up will be announced on 1 May.
同時,Glastonbury 主辦單位在今天的《衛報》刊登了廣告來刺激門票
銷售。
所有今年的完整演出名單將於五月一日宣布。
