最近翻照片翻到了2017年，我最愛的鼓手 Antonio Sánchez 帶著他的樂團 Migration 來台灣 河岸留言 演出，想起了之前我曾經翻譯過他的DVD "Master Series"的一段話，非常感動且給我很大的能量，但之前有被盜過帳號都不見了，於是決定再找出來聽打一次重新翻譯分享給大家。

也再次謝謝 河岸留言可以邀請這麼棒的樂團來台灣！！

如果不知道Antonio Sanchez是誰的，他是Pat Metheny band的鼓手，葛萊美獎得了好幾座，同時已經得了奧斯卡等N個獎項的電影 Birdman 「鳥人」，這部整部電影配樂只有鼓聲，所有鼓也都是他錄的。

-----------------------------------------
一些來自 Antonio Sanchez 對鼓手們的金玉良言 (出自他的 “Master Series” DVD )

最後一點我想要說的是，許多關於跟音樂以及音樂家共事的態度。

嗯，當我還在成長時，我總是夢想著可以在很棒、高聳、最大的場館，跟著大型樂團，以及最棒的音樂家們一起演出。 這夢想當然很棒，但你總是要從某些名不經傳的小地方當作你的起點。

突然之間，我意識到我正在小酒吧、小俱樂部、或是某家餐館、某個婚禮場演出 — 而且沒有人在專注聽你演奏，那時我覺得很沮喪而且覺得被冒犯了，舉例來說。我以前做很多婚禮場，而且在上面演奏「熱愛105度C的你」(註一) 上百次，演奏時心裡想「我在這邊銃三小？」、「快讓我離開這吧，殺了我吧，我可以演比這個帥一百倍以上的曲目！」於是，我在演奏時只想打卡下班，就沒有把我的專注放在音樂上面。

又或者某天，我在某間小酒吧演出，正在演奏搖擺樂，或者一些我真的很喜歡的音樂風格，但沒有人在注意聽我們演奏，大家都在看大銀幕上的棒球比賽。 我就想說「好吧，反正沒人在聽，我就把我昨天練功的招式都丟進去音樂吧。」而那時我只是胡亂的丟我練過的招式，並沒有在那個音樂裡面，我也沒有在聽其他音樂家演奏了什麼，不過也許其他音樂家有聽到我做的事情。

後來，當我幸運地得到了更多演出機會，而這些場合開始需要更高的難度，我了解到我的專心程度並不足以支撐這些高強度的場合。

舉例來說，當我在九零年代晚期開始跟Niels Pedersen一起做巡迴，那是個非常高強度的演奏，它是個三重奏，每次演出的晚上，我的腦袋好像快爆炸一樣，因為我並不習慣如此需要長時間專注程度的高難度演出，我才了解到我浪費了太多時間以前演奏的時候沒有把專注力放在音樂上。

我覺得，如果你有兩隻手、兩隻腳、而且可以演奏樂器，你已經夠幸運了。而我認為如果你現在正在某間酒吧、某個餐館、或是某個婚禮場作演出，而你可以把每一場演出當作好像是全世界最棒的演出、在最大、最美麗的場館，跟著最棒的音樂家一起演出，那我認為你正走在對的路上。因為你有把你的心放在音樂裡面，而且你給這些音樂跟音樂家他們所渴望的最棒的尊重，那麼我可以向你保證接下來會有很棒的事情降臨在你身上。

這就是我想說的，非常謝謝你們今晚的蒞臨，希望我們下次可以再見。

註一：原文是說演奏「La Mecarena」，９０年代的當紅歌曲。這邊為了年輕讀者，使用較貼近現在的105度C的你。

註二：Niels Pedersen 全名是 Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen (N.H.O.P.)，是從70-90年代活躍的傳奇的低音提琴手，演奏速度可以超級超級快又具備非常豐富的音樂性。

Recently I found a picture that my favorite drummer
Antonio Sanchez and his band "Migration" touring in Taipei in 2017. And few years ago I've seen his DVD and felt so inspired from these words. I decided to translate it into Chinese to share with other Chinese drummers.

There's maybe little mistakes because English is not my mother language.

---------------------------------
Some wise words from my all-times favorite drummer Antonio Sanchez from his DVD - "Master Series".

And the last things I wanna said, hmm, has a lot to do with attitude to work with music and musicianships. Hmm, When I was growing up, I was always dreaming of playing in a nice, tall, the biggest stadium and the biggest band with the greatest musicians in this world. And that’s great except that we all have to start somewhere. And I, all of a sudden, I was playing in a little bar, or small pub, or some restaurant, or a wedding where nobody was paying an attention. And I really felt depressed and I felt violated. And for example, I’ve been played for a wedding gig, and I would be playing “La Marcaena” for a hundred times , and I would be like “What am I doing here ?”, “Get me out of here, shoot me, this is not for me, I’m so much better than this !”
And I was not putting my heart into it at all. When the next day, I would play in some small bar, I was playing maybe swing or something that I really like, but nobody was paying an attention. Everybody was looking at the screen, the baseball game. And I would be like “Well, nobody is paying an attention, then I just gonna playing practice whatever I was working on yesterday.” And I was NOT in the moment, I was not listening to what the other guys were playing. And maybe the other guys were listening to me.

So, when I luckily started getting better and better opportunities music-wise, and the situations start getting a little more the manling. I realized that I did not have the concentration I took for me to be able to deal with some of the situations. Uh, for example when I started to play with Niels Pedersen in the late 90s, it was a very tense gig , it was just a trio, and every night I would end would headache , because I was not used to have a lot of concentration and focusing that much, for that amount of time.
I realize that I’ve wasted a lot of time not being into the music not putting my heart into it. Because, I mean I really feel like if a, you have two arms, two legs, and you are able to play , you are lucky already. And I think if you are playing in some small restaurant, or wedding, or whatever. You treat that situation like the best gig in the world in the most beautiful opera house or the biggest stadium, and you treat you felt the musicians like the greatest musicians you could play with. I think you are on the right path. You put your heart into it, and you give the music and musicians the respect they deserved. Then I can assure you really good things are gonna happen to you. So that’s it for me, thank you so much for coming, hope see you next time.

【乾坤 Qian Kun】
原先已經準備好這套衣服以及我認為很重要的主題，
在 Aqua Challenge 決戰水下伸展台 準決賽使用，
但一直覺得很可惜沒能進到準決賽將這套衣服的理念放上節目，所幸各路朋友們毫不猶豫的相助，特別是Yorko 陪著我共同完成出這個作品。

最後一張放上我們隨手拍攝動態剪出來的短版Teaser。

-

從表演藝術的角度來看，
「性別」不是一種二元對立的存在。

我們經歷了許多次的賦權革命，如今，性別二字，已經不再是定義任何人的框架。

這次拍攝，將主題溯源到戲曲文化；從元朝開始，戲曲表演的虛擬性，讓男性飾演女角、女性詮釋男角，「乾旦坤生」四字便開啟了性別對立的轉型。因此把造型設定為頭頂花旦鳳冠，臉施花旦妝，下身卻是戰甲，手拿大旗。用雌雄同體的概念，呈現出乾、坤，陰、陽共處調和的無限感。

一個人的獨特，是集合了來自千萬種相互矛盾元素的總和，跨越了性別對立的限制，才會讓我們看到愛無限，愛最大的迷人面貌。

From the point of performing art.
"Gender" is not a dualistic existence.

We have gone through many empowerment revolutions over the years. Today, the word gender is no longer the most important identity that defines an indivdual.

The concept of this photography is first traced back to Chinese opera, which could be the first in our culture to initiated the transformation of gender opposition. Since the Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368), the virtual nature of opera performances allowed men to play female roles and women to interpret male roles. The phrase ”Qian Dan Kun Sheng” proves such tradition exists. “Qian” 乾, heaven, usually indicates male, “Dan”, 旦, female characters in drama. “Kun”, 坤, ground, usually indicates female. “Sheng” 生, the male characters. The phrase tells that female characters could be played by male performers and male characters could be played by female performers.

We designed the look following this concept. Wearing a phoenix crown (headwear designed for female roles) on the top of the head, female face makeup is applied, but the items for the lower body is a male’s battle armor, holding a battle banner in hand. Using the concept of hermaphroditism, it presents an infinite sense of harmony between Qian and Kun (heaven and earth), Ying and Yang (positive and negative).

The uniqueness of a person is a collection of thousands of contradictory elements. And to move beyond the restriction of gender duality and opposition, is how we will see the infinite power and the most charming face of love.

Hope you all love this video!

Only Allen Iverson could deliver a Hall of Fame speech that name-checked '90s rappers, referenced "Chappelle's Show" and thanked just about every person he met along his basketball journey. Only Shaquille O'Neal could follow that act with what amounted to a half-hour comedy routine that needled former coaches and teammates and included a soap-opera shout-out.

The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame's Class of 2016 lived up to its lofty billing with an epic three-hour induction ceremony Friday night at Springfield's Symphony Hall, with Iverson and O'Neal stealing the show.

Iverson delivered a captivating 31-minute speech in which he overcame initial jitters during a memorable address that featured multiple standing ovations. Fans with No. 3 Iverson jerseys in the balcony cheered throughout.

Dressed in a black suit with a black shirt and tie, Iverson paused repeatedly to collect himself at the start of his speech while thanking his three presenters -- Larry Brown, Julius Erving and John Thompson -- as well as members of his family.

Fighting tears throughout, Iverson thanked former Georgetown coach Thompson "for saving my life."

"[After] the incident happened in high school and all that was taken away ... no other schools would recruit me anymore," Iverson recalled, referencing a racial brawl at a bowling alley that landed him in jail. His conviction in the case was later overturned. "My mom went to Georgetown and begged [Thompson] to give me a chance. And he did."

He said he later left Georgetown only as "an OK basketball player."

"But once I started to listen to Larry Brown and take constructive criticism, I learned how much of a great, great coach that he really is. ... That's when I became an MVP," Iverson said.

In maybe the most memorable moment of his address, Iverson recalled his first time playing against his idol, Michael Jordan.

"Man, I wanted to be like Mike," Iverson said. "I remember the first time I played against him. I walked out on the court and I looked at him. And, for the first time in my life, a human being didn't really look real to me. You know what I mean? I don't know if you all watch the 'Chappelle Show,' but he talked about a certain incident where somebody's seeing Rick James. Like I literally seen his aura. It looked like he was glowing.

"I'm sitting there, and I'm saying, 'Man, that's Michael.' And I'm looking at him. I can't stop looking at him. I'm looking at his shoes, and I'm like, man, he's got on the Jordans! It was my Mike. It was my idol, my hero."

After the Jordan story, Iverson seemed to settle in. Nervously rocking at the start of his speech, he confidently thanked a Rolodex of coaches, owners, teammates and rappers.

"I want to thank Biggie Smalls, Redman, Jadakiss, Tupac and Michael Jackson for being my theme music throughout my career," Iverson said.

Twenty-two minutes into his speech, Iverson said, "The Philly fans," and that elicited a monster reaction from the balcony, which immediately engaged in an "MVP" chant.

Added Iverson: "My relationship with the fans in Philadelphia is like no other. I thank you all for the support over the years. ... You never jumped off the bandwagon, continued to support me like true fans are supposed to."

Iverson also paid tribute to "the ones that stuck by me throughout my journey." He cited "all the barbershop talk that my family had and all the arguments my friends had with people in the barbershop and hair salon.

"Now you can say: 'Well, look, my man is solidified.'"

Iverson closed his speech with a nod to the "guys who are not my friends anymore."

"I'm glad that you blew your cover for me to recognize that you [weren't] any good to my family or me. And I appreciate y'all for that. So if I make any more new friends, I know the signs," he said.

Not to be outdone, O'Neal took the stage for a punchline-filled speech as the final inductee of the night.

O'Neal referenced Luke and Laura from "General Hospital" and joked about his commercial endeavors, including how he sat in a "Buick I knew I couldn't fit in." Drawing laughter, O'Neal added, "Hey, they paid me $3 million. What did you want me to say, no?"

His speech had serious moments, like when he thanked his parents, Phil Harrison and Lucille O'Neal, for giving him the discipline and drive that drove his NBA dream.

"If I know my father, he's up there arguing with Wilt [Chamberlain] that his son is the best big man in the game," O'Neal said.
