不好吃

The Lost Years
也许这只是一个为了获得免费啤酒的简单骗局,或者只是一个酒醉以后没有人清醒过来的想法。无论理由到底是什么,2005年四名歹徒手持电声班卓琴走到了一起,一起演奏朋克摇滚版本的经典美国偶像约翰尼·卡什的歌曲。啤酒浸泡过的表演,演奏第一支歌曲之前就已经臭名昭著地错过音符,长裤落地,被北京各大舞台驱逐,直到他们在五道口发现了一个全新的,还没堕落的演出酒吧:D-22。他们设法欺骗当地外籍人士,使酒吧每周三晚上都爆满,直到管理层做出一个惊人的愚蠢的决定:聘请乐队成员作为酒吧的工作人员。这导致他们不折不扣随便喝酒吧的酒水(不过也很有可能,管理层意识到,他们在这件事上没有其他选择)。 “不好吃”乐队现在无拘无束不受控制,他们主办每周的新奇表演,包括他们的朋友和现场的当地名人,Joyside,The Scoff和其他人都参加了演出前的“碰碰杯”喝酒比赛,然后的演出,经常会成为自己的职业生涯的最佳表现,但是没人能真的记得发生过什么 - 因为,如果你能记住不好吃的表演,那么你肯定没有真的来过现场。
乐队的这个黄金时期终于在一个命运多舛的杭州演出中达到了高潮,他们从来没有完整地演完两首歌,就被踢下舞台- 直接断电或者线被拖走。他们的南方同志的反体育道德的态度,加上白酒狂欢后的不可避免的崩溃,导致他们仅用了半年时间就燃尽了。成员们,根据当地的传说,被迫去过他们歌中唱的那样的生活。
不好吃的痕迹还时不时地冒出来,虽然很快被压制,像中国的山寨货,但还是不能停止他们继续向专业性,音乐家和受尊敬的步伐迈进。乐队的记忆渐渐褪色,但从未真正完全消失,做个不恰当的比方,就好像呕吐渍永远洗不干净。现在,经过十年的休眠,跟一些令人尊敬的艺术家和社团领导一起,他们将会开始一场10年重组的演出。即将开始的灾难是深夜讨论的主要话题 - 就好像某种瘾又犯了,谁知道接下来将会怎么样。但是有一个问题,继续萦绕:谁能再经受得住又一轮的“不好吃”轰炸?

Perhaps it was simply a scam to get free beer, or just a drunken idea from which no one managed to sobered up. Regardless of the underlying rationale, in 2005 four miscreants armed with an electric banjo came together to play punk rock covers of that classic American icon Johnny Cash. Beer-soaked performances, notorious for dropped notes and trousers - even before playing their first song, earned them banishment from stages all across Beijing until they found an easy mark in a then-brand-new-and-not-yet-reeking-of-puke venue in WuDaoKou called D-22. They managed to pack out the bar on Wednesday nights by scamming a local expat rag until management made the astoundingly stupid decision to hire the band members as bar staff, thus allowing them unmitigated access to the alcohol (it’s quite possible however, that management realized they had no choice in the matter). BuHaoChi now possessed an unfettered control, which they wielded to host now-legendary weekly shows comprising their friends and local luminaries of the scene. Joyside, the Scoff, and others all participated shot-for-shot drinking matches before taking the stage where they would often then play the best performances of their careers that none would ever clearly remember - because if you can remember a BuHaoChi show then you weren’t actually there.
This golden period for the band culminated in an ill-fated tour of Hangzhou, during which they never managed to perform two full songs before being kicked out - power cut and backlines hauled away. The unsportsmanlike attitude of their southern comrades, combined with the inevitable crash from a baijiu binge may have been what caused them to burn out after just six months. The members, according to local lore, then set forth to lead lives based on the tunes they had been singing.
Vestiges of BuHaoChi cropped up from time to time but were quickly suppressed like Chinese shanzai goods as the scene continued on its steady march towards professionalism, muscianship and respectability. Memories of the band faded but never quite disappeared completely, not unlike a puke stain that can never be washed out. Now, after ten years of dormancy, whispers of a mounting reunion show with otherwise respectable artists and community leaders can be heard in some of the city's seedier bars. Late night discussions are dominated by increasing resignation in the face of an impending disaster - like recovering addicts who know they are headed for a fall. One question however, continues to linger: can anyone really take one more round of BuHaoChi?
