Uni t 5 The band that wasn’t H ave you ever wanted to be part of a band as a fam ous si nger or m usi ci ans? H ave you ever dream ed of pl ayi ng i n front of thousands of peopl e at a concert, at whi ch everyone i s cl api ng and appreci ati ng your m usi c? Do you si ng Karaoke and pretend you are a fam ous si nger l i ke Song Zuyi ng or Li u H uan? To be honest, a l ot of people attach great im portance to bei ng ri ch and fam ous. But just now do peopl e form a band? Many m usi ci ans m eet and form a band because they l i ke to wri te and pl ay thei r own m usi m ay start as a group of hi ghschool students, for whom practi si ng thei r musi c i n som eone’s house i s the fi rst step to fam e. Som eti mes they m ay play to passersby in the street or subway so that they can earn som e extra m oney for them sel ves or to pay for thei r i nstrum ents. Later they m ay gi ve perform ances i n pubs or cl ubs, for whi ch they are pai d i n cash. Of course they hope to m ake records i n a studi o and sel l mil li ons of copi es to be e mi l i onai res! H owever, there was one band that started i n a di fferent way. It was cal ed the Monkees and began as a TV show. The m usi ci ans were to pl ay jokes on each other as wel l as pl ay m usi c, m ost of whi ch was based l oosel y on the Beatl es. The TV ani zer had pl anned to fi nd four m usici ans who coul d act as wel as si ng. They put an adverti sem ent i n a newspaper l ooking for rock musi ci ans, but they coul d onl y fi nd one who was good enough. They had to use actors for the other three m em bers of theband. As som e of these actors coul d not si ng wel l enough, they had to rel y on other m usi cians to hel p them . So duri ng the broadcasts they just pretended to si ng. Anyhow their perform ances were hum orous enough to be copi ed by other groups. They were so popul ar that their fans form ed cl ubs i n order to get more fami li ar wi th them . Each week on TV, the Monkees woul d pl ay and si ng songs wri tten by other m usi ci ans. H owever, after a year or so i n whi ch they becam e m ore seri ous about thei r work, the Monkees started to pl ay and si ng thei r own songs l i ke a real band. Then they produced thei r own records and started touri ng and pl ayi ng thei r own m usi c. In the USA they becam e even m ore popul ar than the Beatl es and sol d even m ore records. The band broke up about 1970, but happil y they reuni ted i n the mi d1980s. They produced a new record i n 1996, wi th whi ch they celebrated their form er tim e as a real band. Freddy the frog（Ⅱ） Not l ong after Freddy and the band becam e fam ous, they vi si ted Bri tai n on a bri ef tour. Fans showed thei r devoti on by waiti ng for hours to get ti ckets for thei r concerts . Freddy was now quite confi dent when he went i nto a concert hal l. H e enjoyed si ngi ng and al l the congratul ati ons afterwards! Hi s m ost exciti ng i nvi tati on was to perform on a TV programm e cal ed “ Top of pops “. H e had to go to London, wear an expensi ve sui t and give a perform ance to a TV cam era. It fel t very strange. But as soon as the programm e was over, the tel ephones whi ch were i n the sam e room started ri ngi ng. Everybody was aski ng when they coul d see Freddy and hi s band again. They were trul y stars. Then thi ngs went wrong. Freddy and hi s band coul d not go out anywhere wi thout bei ng fol owed. Even when they wore sungl asses or beards people recogni zed them . Fans found them even when they went i nto toil et. They tri ed to hi de i n the readi ng room s of l i brari es, but i t was usel es. Som eone was al ways there! Thei r personal li fe was regul arl y discussed by peopl e who di d not know them but tal ked as if they cl ose fri ends. At l ast feeli ng very upset and sensi ti ve, Freddy and his band reali zed that they m ust l eave the country before it becam
