Chapter 973： Charity fundraiser

The third update today, please recommend, please subscribe!

The Staples Center had just said goodbye to the Grammys, followed by a star-studded charity fundraiser. .

At the end of last year, on December 26, the day after Christmas, the second largest earthquake in history occurred in the Indian Ocean, with a magnitude of 9.0, second only to the 1960 Chilean earthquake.

In this tsunami, 156,000 people have been killed so far, and it is the most deadly tsunami disaster in the world in the past two hundred years.

Evan Bell thought that he should hold a charity fundraising concert and do something within his power. Maybe he can't fly to the hardest-hit areas in Indonesia to contribute, but at least he can hold a concert in Los Angeles, while dedicating performances to fans, he can also donate all the income to the disaster areas to help them get through the hard times. Therefore, Evan Bell pre-booked the right to use the Staples Center last month. After all, this is a place where concerts are held intensively. As a result, he successfully booked the Staples Center on February 17th. Mainly because it's a Thursday and there aren't any concerts going on.

At that time, "Pirates of the Caribbean hadn't been completed yet. Evan Bell planned to spend two days alone to prepare, and invited some friends to attend, not only to share his rehearsal pressure, but also to attract more box office. But who would have thought , Evan Bell not only had time to prepare for the concert, but also took time to participate in the Grammy Awards ceremony, first contributing a force in the form of performance.

On February 17th, although it was a Thursday, before two o'clock in the afternoon, the fans gathered outside the venue were already quite impressive. There are no posters hanging around the Staples Center, but there is a sign at the entrance of the main entrance that reads "Help the people suffering from the Indian Ocean tsunami", and in the lower part is a blank, sapphire blue bottom plate , there are many signatures written in carbon pens of various colors.

Fans gathered in front of the board to read -- the autographs on the board, chatting about whose autograph was read on it, because they knew that the signed singer would be attending tonight's concert. Indeed, Evan Bell once again has a personality, he just announced on the Eleven blog, "I'm going to hold a charity fundraiser with my friends to provide a little help to those affected by the Indian Ocean tsunami." Other than that, there is no information. Therefore, which "friends" will appear at this concert has also become the focus of everyone's attention.

Evan Bell's signature on the top of the board is very recognizable. Because his signature is like a work of art, and he paints the past like a phoenix. In the following, Chester Bennington's signature is not surprising, Mike Xintian and others have a lot of signatures. Linkin Park, as Evan Bell's best friend, is a matter of course on the list. Jason Mraz's signature is not easy to identify, but fans can always recognize it. The appearance of the signatures of Adam-Levy and others is not surprising at all, and the Magic Red Band is also one of the guests that can be obtained without guessing. But what interests many people is that the signature of uz lead singer Bono also appeared on the billboard, which means that the uz band, which has always been full of praise for Evan Bell, will also appear at the concert. The first cooperation between the two parties.

In addition, the names of Alicia Keys, Usher, Beyonce and others also appeared. It seems that the competitive relationship that the media has been advocating is actually not as exaggerated as everyone thinks. And the appearance of the signature Billy Joe Armstrong, the lead singer of Green Day, surprised fans, "When did they meet?" Evan Bell told Green Day at the just-concluded Grammy Awards. The Japanese band made an invitation, and although the two had only just met, Billy Joe Armstrong agreed without hesitation.

"Is this Avril's signature?" A fan looked at a signature in the lower left corner. The three letters of "a are very clear followed by "la, which is not difficult to identify. There is also a Avril Lavigne on it that is always used to Sex painted love hearts. In fact, in general, the signature is fairly clear.

It's just that the relationship between Avril Lavigne and Evan Bell is not an enemy, but it is definitely not a friend. At the charity concert, Avril Lavigne was not officially debuting at that time, so there were definitely not many fans who knew it. Although this time is also a charity concert, the nature is different. It was organized by Evan Bell. Evan Bell's invitation to Avril Lavigne itself is very strange, and Avril Lavigne actually agreed, which is even more incredible.

Therefore, when fans saw Avril Lavigne's signature, they were quite uncertain and thought they were dazzled. But after getting closer and confirming, everyone found that this was something that couldn't be more certain. This is indeed Avril Lavigne's signature. So, this means that Avril Lavigne will appear at tonight's concert, which is really exciting. It's not that there is an affair between Evan Bell and Avril Lavigne or anything, it's just that the two rivals have several encounters in the media that fans are watching with relish, and both are young people with full personality. , If it can be on the same stage, it is indeed worth looking forward to.

Before three o'clock, more than 2,000 fans were already waiting outside the Staples Center, mainly because it was Evan Bell's first concert since his debut. Before this, whether it was a new song conference, a fan meeting, a charity concert, an award ceremony performance, or a street performance, Evan Bell had countless opportunities to perform live, but there was never a concert that was officially ticketed. meeting. So, even though it was a charity platter concert this time, not a formal solo concert, it still made the fans happy. Because this means regular venues, regular performances, and regular ticket sales, fans can naturally look forward to the concert.

The ticket sales for this charity concert started a week ago. Although the guest list was not announced, relying only on Evan Bell's appeal, the online ticket sales only lasted less than 30 minutes, and 20,000 tickets were sold out. The speed is astounding. It can also be seen that fans have infinite enthusiasm for Evan Bell. Of course, the first time always has a special meaning, and the enthusiasm of fans is naturally higher. I believe that when Evan Bell holds his first ticket-selling solo concert, the supportive enthusiasm shown by the fans will be even more outstanding.

At this moment, a black nanny car appeared at the entrance of the Staples Center waiting for the fans' sight, and immediately a group of people swarmed up, no matter who it is, this will be one of the performers tonight. One, look at the list on the autograph board just now, and you will know how much to look forward to this concert.

It's a pity that the windows of the nanny car are covered with sunshade film, and there is no sight at all from the outside. Many fans ventured to stand in front of the car, trying to see who the driver was, or whether they could see who was behind the passenger. But unfortunately, I only saw a vague face of the driver, but it was not a familiar appearance in my impression. The nanny car was still moving slowly, and the fans standing in front of the car also moved to the sides like a tide, and in the end they could only watch the nanny car drive into the underground parking lot of the Staples Center.

A large group of fans flocked to the door of the parking lot, craned their necks through the fence to look inside, and soon they saw Evan Bell walking out of the car chatting and laughing, and immediately there was a shocking explosion outside. screams and shouts. Evan Bell and others in the car were talking about something, and when he heard the cheers, Evan Bell turned his head and waved to the fans, and the screams suddenly rose again, almost breaking the table. , a roaring echo echoed in the parking lot.

Later, Chester Bennington also got out of the car, and the screams outside the parking lot suddenly began to break. Unexpectedly, they arrived at the scene together. Sure enough, Mike Shinoda also walked down immediately.

Chester Bennington glanced at the fans outside, smiled at each other with Evan Bell, said a few words, and both of them laughed. Mike Xintian walked to Evan Bell's side, put his right hand on Evan Bell's shoulder, and looked leisurely, watching the other players in Linkin Park get off the car. Fortunately, the capacity of the nanny car is large enough, even if a lot of people are stuffed into it, it will not be crowded at all.

This was the first time Evan Bell used a nanny van, so most fans never saw it. Generally speaking, a nanny car is the most commonly used vehicle for singers to promote, because the space inside is large enough, and singers can complete various activities such as makeup, hairstyle, and dressing in the car, which is very compact for the publicity period. The singers of 's are definitely the perfect transition tool.

Evan Bell and Mike Xintian stepped forward and walked towards the elevator. Chester Bennington was still standing at the door of the nanny car. He reached into the car and seemed to be explaining something. . The screams and cheers at the gate of the parking lot came one after another, and the long-hidden enthusiasm broke out without stopping.

At this moment, the voice of "be careful" kept coming from behind. Looking back, another nanny car drove over. A small number of professional fans who often watch concerts or chase stars have recognized this car. Now, "It's uz, it's uz." As soon as this voice came out, the fans who were already clamoring for lots were like a frying pan, and the sound of the lottery was like a stormy sea engulfing uz's nanny car.

The enthusiasm for the concert is indeed extraordinary.
