Noel's Glasto verdict
诺尔的Glasto评论
Oasis guitarist offers a less scathing view of 2009's festival headliners
绿洲吉他手对2009的音乐节领衔表演者 提出不那麽严厉的观点
11 June 2009
After his controversial comments about Jay-Z at Glastonbury last year Oasis
frontman Noel Gallagher has put forward his opinion on this year's line-up.
在他去年对Jay-Z在Glastonbury表演的评论引发争议後,绿洲主唱诺尔盖勒格再度对今
年的阵容发表意见。
In 2008 he said it was "wrong" to have a hip-hop headliner and said that was
why the festival struggled to sell out.
在2008年他说是列入嘻哈表演者是「错误的」,并指出这就是音乐节售票情形不理想的
原因。
Jay-Z hit back by opening his set with a cover of the Oasis hit, Wonderwall.
But this year, Noel has held back on the headliners and their old Brit-pop
rivals: "If you were a Blur fan it will be extremely exciting for you."
Jay-Z一开始表演,就翻唱绿洲热门歌曲Wonderwall,作为反击。但今年,诺尔对音乐节
表演阵容和他们长久以来的英摇死对头,态度较为和缓:「如果你是Blur迷,那你会很
兴奋」。
The Oasis mastermind admitted, when asked what his thoughts were on the
line-up, that is was a "loaded question" before casting his eye over the bill.
这位绿洲头子坦承,在他还没看到表演单前,就问他对表演阵容的想法,实在是「陷阱
题」。
"I like Bruce. I don't know, do I like Bruce?" he mused. "I don't own any of
his records. I like Crosby, Stills and Nash. I love Neil Young, he's playing
isn't he somewhere and I love The Specials - I've just been to see The Specials."
「我喜欢Bruce。不知道耶,我喜欢Bruce吗?」他若有所思地说「我没买过他任何一张
唱片。我喜欢Crosby, Stills and Nash。我爱Neil Young,他会来表演吧,他应该在表
演单上某个地方吧,我爱The Specials – 我才刚去看过The Specials演唱」。
'Quite exciting'
「相当兴奋」
Over the years, no secret has been made of the antipathy between the
Gallagher brothers and Blur, who were also a prominent force in the music
industry in the '90s.
这些年来,盖勒格兄弟和Blur毫不隐瞒对彼此的憎恶,Blur也是90年代音乐工业一股显
着的势力。
But Noel was restrained when discussing Blur, who announced their summer
comeback last December and are set to headline the final evening in Somerset
on Sunday 28 June.
但诺尔在谈论Blur时很保守,去年Blur宣布他们将在夏天重返乐坛,并将在Somerset最
後一晚,也就是6月28日星期日,领衔演唱。
"Blur are playing. That will be exciting for Blur fans," he said. "
Particularly if you're a Blur fan that's come along since the how ever many
years it is they've not been doing nothin', and you've almost waited a
lifetime to see them - it will be quite exciting I would have thought."
「Blur会演出。Blur迷将会很兴奋」他说「特别是如果你是一个Blur迷,这麽多年来,
他们什麽动静也没有,而你等着要看他们,都快等一辈子了 – 我想应该会相当兴奋」。
He claimed Blur never really split up, but just went on hiatus.
他指出Blur从未真正解散,只是停摆。
"People in other bands can turn their hands to different types of music," said
Noel of Blur's time apart, which saw frontman Damon Albarn dream up the
virtual band Gorillaz and put on the theatre production, Monkey Journey To
The West.
对於Blur离开乐坛的这段时间,Damon Albarn构思出虚拟乐团Gorillaz,并推出Monkey
Journey To The West剧作,诺尔表示:「其它乐团的人,可以玩不同种类的音乐」。
"We never went to college or university; what you see me doing on stage, I'm
operating at the absolute limit of my musical ability. I can't do anything else
," he continued. "I can't play jazz, I can't work out Chinese operas, I don't
know about reggae.
「我们从来没上过大学;你看到我在台上的表演,是我将自己的音乐才能发挥到绝对极限
。我不能再做其他事了」他继续说道「我不能演奏Jazz,我不能表演中国京剧,我不懂雷
鬼」。
"All I know is how to play the songs that I play, so we've never really been
able to do anything else and never really had the inclination to.
「我知道的就是如何弹奏我们的歌曲,所以我们从未真能从事其他事,也不曾尝试过」。
"If you're in Oasis there's no need to do anything else. It's why people have
never left U2. "
「如果你是绿洲乐团的一份子,根本没有必要去做其它事。这就是为什麽从来没有人离开
U2」
Franz response
Franz的回应
Emily Eavis has denied this year's headliners of Bruce Springsteen, Blur and
Neil Young was a reaction to the contentious billing of Jay-Z, at the festival
which has traditionally seen guitar-based rock acts fill the top, Pyramid
Stage slots. (Read more)
Emily Eavis否认今年的领衔演唱者Bruce Springsteen、Blur和Neil Young是针对Jay-Z
在传统上以吉他为主的摇滚盛事中在金字塔舞台演唱争议的反应.
And Noel also dismissed he had anything to do with the organisers' choice to
book the titans of rock: "It goes in cycles though.
诺尔也澄清自己没有涉入主办单位对这些摇滚巨人的邀约:「但是每年都会发生」
Everybody can't all play at the same time. "If I'd have had anything to do
with that bill Franz Ferdinand wouldn't have been on it. The Script are
playing though. They're brilliant, and The Wombats."
不能同时请每个人演唱。「如果我可以决定表演名单,就不会列入Franz Ferdinand。但
会纳入The Script。他们很棒,还有Wombats」。
