【蒙麦冲天】麦迪,不哭。 当丰田中心终于恢复了静默。这个夏天,终于提前结束了。 理科四班。这是我们的教室,在学校也很好找:墙壁上全部是NBA的海报,角落里静静的躺着3个篮球,从窗户上远眺,正前方就是篮球场。我很自豪,班上坐着一群热爱篮球的孩子。从懵懂到喜爱,到再也割舍不下,用了两年的时间。 第七场。我们还在教室里淹没在试卷中,阳光斜斜的射在那张倒计时牌上,五月六号,我们带着梦想和祝福与火箭一起上路了。 这天没有人嚷着纳什或者科比。我们的心里在那一刻只有一个名字。我们的火箭,那片耀眼的红色。我们坚信,麦迪,那个总是扬起笑脸的男人,会带着火箭走的很远。很远。手机的开机语在去年的十一月份就一直没有换:麦迪和虫子在夏天都会是冠军。 班上走掉了几个同学,他们很认真地说,我们去见证胜利(变态们逃课上网- -|||),然后会定时发短信来报告情况。 ——比赛开始了。 ——我们一起等待,火箭胜利着回来。 ——虫子,有你家麦迪在,没有关系的。 ——只是落后十几分,但是我们有麦迪。 ——还差七分。 ——两分。还有八分钟呢…… 全班的心都跟着一起跳动。不断更新的纸条在全班传动着。 因为我们都相信着麦迪那个男人。我们都深爱着叫麦迪的男人。我们期待着每一次麦迪的飞翔,我们喜欢麦迪眼睛突然在某一刻坚定起来,我们坚信上帝会眷顾这个一直努力的男人。 但当回到家的时候。我却看到了麦迪站在球场中央沉默不语,仿佛整个世界与他脱离,就像一个迷路的孩子无助。眼泪就在一瞬间掉了下来,麦迪的视线在一片泛滥中模糊。他默默地拥抱每一个对手,我实在不忍心再看下去,那个被我们呵护的麦迪,在那一刻是那么的脆弱。 同学打电话说,虫子,你哭了对不对。别哭别哭。明年还有机会。 第二天的教室安静了许多。那些记录火箭成长的本子,落寞的躺在角落。翻开的时候,还有大家预测的比分。那无数个火箭胜的红色,突然刺痛了眼睛。后来我看到了后面被同学们新添上的话。GO,ROCKETS。WE ALWAYS LOVE YOU。NEXT SEASON,WE WILL ALWAYS BE THERE WITH YOU。 还有一句。被所有人写了很多遍,麦迪不哭。 不哭。但是还是看到了麦迪的眼泪。那一刻的他脱下了坚强的伪装,他的肩膀轻轻的颤抖,哭得像个小孩一般。那一刻,所有人都会被他感动吧。就像爵士说的:麦迪一定会有一次走的很远很远,会有这样的一次。 所以那句开机语我依旧不会换掉。我要把它留到明年的夏天,我想看到那个微笑的麦迪,那个会在季后赛和我一起过生日的麦迪, 那个嘴角上扬的麦迪,那个带上总冠军戒指的麦迪,那个,那个,被神永远眷恋的麦迪。 会的。因为有那么多人疼爱着他。 即使没有疼爱他的人。在地球的另一端,还有一个永远和麦迪站在一起的我。 Impossible is nothing. Possible is T-mac 永远的小卡。 [07.05.08]在高考体检之后。 PS:小卡的一个愿望,希望能到火箭主场看一次比赛。哈哈。
美国时代周刊在2003年对BEYOND的报道 20 Years Ago Today To some, Beyond are the greatest Chinese rock band ever. To others, they are inglorious, latter-day sellouts. Indisputable, however, is Beyond's surprising longevity in Hong Kong's fickle music scene. In May the band celebrated their 20th anniversary with five capacity concerts at the Hong Kong Coliseum, and they've added three more shows at the same venue for this weekend. There is good reason for the hype: the concert series represents the first time the band has performed together since they took a solo-career sabbatical in 1999. For fans, the shows have been especially poignant. Late vocalist Wong Ka-kuikilled in an accident in 1993 at the age of 31has been resurrected in the form of a life-size video projection, alongside his former band mates. This eerie guest appearance takes place during the performance of Wong's Fighting War for 20 Years. "Ka-kui played the music on an acoustic guitar and hummed along. We added our instruments and sang the lyrics," says bassist Ka-keung, Wong's 38-year-old brother. "This then became a song that our full band performed. So we got the idea that we wanted to bring him onstage with us as well." It's hard to overstate the importance of Beyond to Hong Kong music fans under 40. In a scene long dominated by insubstantial teen idols, Beyond have been the Beatles, the Clash and Oasis rolled into one. To this day they remain the only Hong Kong band to have made the transition from underground obscurity to mainstream stardom. From their first single?1987's Songs of Yesterday? They've achieved this by espousing an openhearted, socially aware brand of rock that compensates for its occasional ham-fistedness with endearing sincerity. Through 27 albums, their songs of protest and peace have touched on everything from human rights to China's social contradictions to the aspirations of ordinary Hong Kongers. One of their most famous songs, 1990's Days of Glory, is about Nelson Mandela: "Today there's only a battered body left to welcome the days of glory/ Holding on tight to freedom." For many of Hong Kong's apolitical youth, it was the first time they had heard of the South African leader. Today, sitting in their landmark Kowloon studio? where the walls are covered with two decades of messages from fans? The boys from Beyond are in an affable and unapologetic mood. "It's a technique to be able to strike a balance between rock and commercial music," says Paul Wong, the band's 39-year-old guitarist. "Once you decide to produce albums, undergrounders call you rock traitors, but the public doesn't even know who you are yet. Every day you're struggling between commercialization and your dream, which we had to remember very clearly. [That dream] was to change the music industry and the situation [in Hong Kong]." The record companies didn't make things easy, either. "It's like they kept pouring buckets of cold water over our heads," says Yip Sai-wing, 39, Beyond's drummer. "We wrote a lot of songs for them, but they'd always say the songs wouldn't work. Some wouldn't even listen to our songs. They'd just take a look at us and reject us on the spot. We had to make a lot of compromises to meet their requests. We attracted a wide public [later] ... then we were able to slowly turn back to doing what we wanted."
