Dave Simpson talks to four musicians who turned their backs on money and fame 什麽让一个人在成功高峰离开团员?Dave Simpson与四位抛弃名利的音乐人的谈话 ... 'My daughter was two days old and I was jumping on a plane' Paul Arthurs, aka 'Bonehead' Guitarist, Oasis, 1991-1999 '我的女儿才出生两天,我就跳上一架飞机' 保罗亚瑟,又名'笨头' 1991-1999任绿洲吉他手 Arthurs is one of five people who know what it's like to perform on stage at the biggest concert in British history: 250,000 people over two nights at Knebworth in 1996 (there were a record 2.5m ticket applications). He walked away just three years later. 亚瑟是知道在英国史上最大演唱会表演是什麽感觉的五个人之一： 1996年在Knebworth两晚25万人(纪录显示登记买票的有250万人) I formed Oasis [as Rain] with a couple of mates. Liam [Gallagher] came in, we changed the name, then Noel - and the rest is history. The first songs Noel played us were Live Forever and All Around the World. The first time he played Champagne Supernova on the tour bus, I cried. 我和一些团员组了Oasis(当时团名是Rain).Liam加入後我们改了团名,然後是Noel- 後来的事就不用多说啦. Noel弹给我们听的第一首歌是Live Forever和All Around the World. 他第一次在巡回巴士上演奏香槟超新星时,我哭了. Oasis was like a steam train. We went from playing the Duchess of York in Leeds, in front of two people who argued over a kebab and stormed out, to playing our first arenas. I remember Liam sat in the seats at the opposite end, shouting, "How are we going to fill this?" 绿洲像是一部蒸汽火车.从在Leeds的Duchess of York为两个人演奏,他们正在为 印度烤肉串争吵然後就冲出去了,我们一路走到第一次在体育场演出. 我记得Liam坐在对面的座位上大吼:"我们要怎麽填满这里?" It was the best job in the world, but by the time we recorded Standing on the Shoulder of Giants [in 1999], it wasn't enjoyable. My daughter was two days old and I was jumping on a flight. We'd made our money. We had big cars. We were renting out Christian Dior's mansion in the south of France. 这是世界上最好的工作,但当我们在录SOTSOG时[1999年].并不愉快.我的女儿才出生两天, 我就得跳上飞机.我们赚了一些钱.我们有大车.我们租了法国南部的迪奥豪宅. That should have been a fun time, but it wasn't. Liam was on a drinking ban and I wasn't helping by not sticking to it. Noel had his own problems, maybe. 那应该是一段有趣的时光,但并非如此.Liam被下禁酒令,我并没有遵守这个禁令, 因此没帮上忙.Noel可能也有自己的问题. I wasn't feeling it any more. I would have been lying to the band and the fans. There were a lot of frantic phone calls and visits, but I'd made my mind up. I always thought we should have bowed out after the second night at Knebworth. Walking out on that stage is a feeling I can't explain: a sea of people. Big! 我再也感觉不到那股热情.我原本可以对团员和歌迷撒谎. 当时有一大堆抓狂电话和拜访, 但我心意已决. 我总是在想我们应该在Knebworth第二晚表演後,就下台一鞠躬. 走上那样的舞台是一种我无法形容的感觉：像海一般广大的人群.壮观! Afterwards, there was a void. You don't jump off a ride like that and stay the same person. It took me two years to get back to who I was - where you don't think you need to ring up management to ask for a car to get somewhere. 在这之後, 有一阵空白(?). 你不可能在参与那样的盛事後(?)还维持原来的心态. 这花了我两年才找回自己-你不会再认为必须 打电话给经理 要辆车 才能出门. I made a more-than-tidy pile, but recently I've started playing again in a band called the Vortex. I feel the way I did in 1992. When I was in Oasis, I used to wonder what it would be like to be in the crowd, watching. Last year, I got on the guest list for an Oasis gig in Birmingham. It was exciting, but strange. I'd never rejoin them - not that I'd be asked. But for one gig? Absolutely. I still know the chords to Rock'n'Roll Star. 我过着规律的生活(???)但最近又开始在Vortex乐团演奏.我感觉好像回到1992年. 我过去在绿洲时,常想知道在人群里是什麽感觉,就只是看着表演. 去年,我被列入 绿洲Birmingham演唱会的来宾名单. 很令人兴奋,但感觉也很怪. 我不会再回到绿洲 - 不是说我有被问要不要回去啦.但是只参加一场演出?我绝对会同意. 我还记得 Rock'n'roll Star的合弦. --
