On Wednesday night, Red Hot Chili Peppers debuted new songs to an intimate
audience under the stars in Big Sur, California. Their appearance at the
Henry Miller Library was announced only three hours before the band took the
stage, and it was free for the 300 lucky fans and friends who made it through
the worn wooden gate.
原来这场演出不是事先安排的,
他们是开唱前三个小时才向观众宣布,会做这场演出。
Rounded out by guitarist Josh Klinghoffer, who replaced John Frusciante, as
well as a percussionist and keyboardist, RHCP performed five songs from their
long-awaited, Rick Rubin-produced tenth album I'm With You (due out August
30), interspersed with a handful of crowd-pleasing classics.
新吉他手Josh同时也负责新专辑中一部分的打击乐与键盘
当晚演唱5首新专辑曲目
"We got new songs, we got old songs in the deadhead redwoods out here," said
Anthony Kiedis cooly, wearing a tuxedo jacket and an OFF! trucker cap. A
towering pine behind him was lit by a pink strobe. The air smelled green and
felt damp. It was a surreal space for the band's iconic funk-punk.
AK身後有一颗高耸松树,被粉红色的闪光灯照亮,
绿意盎然的氛围,带着一点潮湿。让人感到有那麽点超现实。
But Flea apparently lives nearby and visits the library frequently. According
to the show's presenter, coastal promoter Britt Govea of (((folkYEAH!))), the
bassist called him personally to set up the gig about a month ago. The
venue's executive director Magnus Toren said RHCP paid for the entire thing.
Flea家住附近,所以常常去这个图书馆,
一个月前就向他们接洽安排这场演出。
A shirtless, blue-haired Flea joked at the beginning of the set: "Anybody who
knows where I live, now's a good time to rob me. Because, you know, I'm here."
Flea开唱前开了个玩笑:
"知道我家在哪的人,现在是洗劫我的好机会喔!
因为你们知道,我人在这里。" XD
They opened with one of the Afro-funk-influenced new ones, "Monarchy of
Roses," a darkly burbling high-energy pop song spurred forth by a barrage of
percussion. The audience embraced the unfamiliar song without any prodding.
由於开场的"Monarchy of Roses"是全新的歌曲,
所以观众的反应有些迟钝。
The same was true for the fittingly titled "Ethiopia," which was inspired by
a trip Flea and Klinghoffer recently took to Africa at the behest of Gorillaz
mastermind Damon Albarn. Congas and scatted vocals prevailed over a jittery
groove reminiscent of Talking Heads.
"Look Around" too seemed to be made of a dozen slight interlocking parts,
suggesting a more subtle musicality than heard on RHCP's last album, 2006's
Stadium Arcadium (from which they played the slap-happy "Charlie").
As befit the mood, and Klinghoffer's artful, melodic guitar style, the band
favored songs from 2002's By the Way, swaying through the epic-yet-subdued
"Universally Speaking," vamping (aurally, of course) for the slow and sexy
"Don't Forget Me," and quietly building to a furious funk crush with the
album's titular single.
这段看来,Josh的吉他技巧是还不错的,掌握了旧歌,
也把普普的首支单曲做了很优秀的现场诠释。
The coziness was the real draw -- at one point, the guys took turns playing
parts of the new single "The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie" to Flea's
6-year-old daughter, Sunny Bebop Balzary, as she danced on the edge of the
stage -- but the Chili Peppers saved a little spice and hellfire for their
encore, when they surprised all by launching into "Give it Away."
演出"The Adventures of Rain Dance Maggie"时,
Flea的小女儿也在舞台的边边跳舞,很温馨的一刻。
The sylvan wonderland seemed an odd place for slam-dancing, but a devoted few
gave it their all from the grass in front of the band, while the rest rocked,
rapped, and thrashed along a bit more quietly. But by 11 p.m., the forest
seemed to have swallowed every sound as the lights faded and the crowd
trickled out to Highway 1.
