Reading THE BAND THAT WASN'T 非乐队乐队
Have you ever wanted to be part of a band as a famous singer or musician
想成乐队里名歌手音乐家?
Have you ever dreamed of playing in front of thousands of people at a concert
否梦想音乐会面成千万观众演唱
at which everyone is clapping and appreciating your music Do you sing
观众欣赏歌唱鼓掌?
karaoke and pretend you are a famous singer like Song Zuying or Liu Huan
唱卡拉OK时否假装宋祖英刘欢样著名歌星?
To be honest a lot of people attach great importance to becoming rich and
说实名利重
famous But just how do people form a band
样起组成乐队呢?
Many musicians meet and form a band because they like to write and play
许音乐家聚起组成乐队喜欢作曲
their own music They may start as a group of highschool students for whom
演奏音乐开始组中学生
practicing their music in someone's house is the first step to fame Sometimes
某家里排练音乐成名第步 时
they may play to passersby in the street or subway so that they can earn
街铁里路演奏 样
some extra money for themselves or to pay for their instruments Later they
买乐器挣钱
may give performances in pubs or clubs for which they are paid in cash Of
酒吧者俱乐部里演出 样现金
course they hope to make records in a studio and sell millions of copies
然希录音棚里录音然卖掉百万张碟
to become millionaires
成百万富
However there was one band that started in a different way It was called
然方式组建起乐队支乐队门基乐队
the Monkees and began as a TV show The musicians were to play jokes on

Beatles The TV organizers had planned to find four musicians who could act
电视制作原计划想寻找四位会唱会表演乐手
as well as sing They put an advertisement in a newspaper looking for rock
报纸登广告想寻找摇滚乐手
musicians but they could only find one who was good enough
招满意
They had to use actors for the other three members of the band
乐队三演员代
As some of these actors could not sing well enough they had to rely on
演员中唱队里
other musicians to help them So during the broadcasts they just pretended to
帮助 演出时候假唱
sing Anyhow their performances were humorous enough to be copied by
样表演非常幽默乐队开始模仿
other groups They were so popular that their fans formed clubs in order to get
非常走红歌迷更加熟悉成立俱乐部
more familiar with them Each week on TV the Monkees would play and sing
门基乐队星期电视演唱
songs written by other musicians However after a year or so in which they
(when)
音乐家创作歌曲 然约年
became more serious about their work the Monkees started to play and sing
门基乐队逐渐工作认真起
their own songs like a real band Then they produced their own records and
开始支真正乐队样演唱创作歌曲然录制唱片
started touring and playing their own music In the USA they became even
开始巡回表演音乐 美国甚甲壳虫乐队
more popular than the Beatles and sold even more records The band broke
受欢迎 出售录音专辑
up about 1970 but happily they reunited in the mid1980s
门基乐队约1970年左右解散令高兴80年代中期聚首
They produced a new record in 1996 with which they celebrated their former
1996年推出张新专辑真正乐队样庆祝时光
time as a real band
