It's happening live with an audience at alternative fashion shop OKVLT13 in Shanghai, screening at viewing parties around China, and available to livestream anywhere. English with Chinese translation. Free entry!
T.S.O.L. 的第一个字母代表 “True”（真实），这是重点：他们的音乐是为真正的信徒而作的。尽管如此，他们始终未能深入主流视野，而是固守在边缘，毫不妥协，拒绝跨界，不择手段地保持自身独立性。他们不像70年代末80年代初的加州同行，如 X 和 Dead Kennedys；也不像那些同样推动风格发展的哥特朋克乐队，如 The Damned 和 The Misfits；更不像那些直言受他们影响、翻唱过他们歌曲的乐队，如Slayer 和 The Offspring。
The first letter in T.S.O.L. stands for “True” and that's important:It is music for the true believer.They never really broke deep into mainstream recognition, holding defiantly on the edge, resisting cross-over in a multiple of ways: not like their late-70's/early 80's California contemporaries like X and Dead Kennedys; not like fellow genre-pushing goth-punks like The Damned and The Misfits; and certainly not like the bands that cite them as an influence and cover their tunes, like Slayer and The Offspring.
如果你被生活折磨，活人微死，喜欢快节奏的重型音乐，就算你从未听说过 T.S.O.L.，那么他们也很可能是你偶像乐队的偶像。
那些接触到 T.S.O.L. 且喜爱他们的人，往往是因为音乐本身：比如《Code Blue》里令人毛骨悚然的尖锐讽刺；《Abolish Government / Silent Majority》里宣示立场的中指挑衅；又或者《Wash Away》里那段在孤独夜晚走过墓地的脚步声……
Even if you never heard of T.S.O.L., if you're into fast and heavy music with a scabby outside and weathered heart, there's a chance they are your favorite band's favorite band.
People who come across the music in T.S.O.L. are into it for their music: the caustic barbs in the macabre kiss off of “Code Blue”, the declarative middle-finger wag of “Abolish Government/Silent Majority”, or the clip of a brisk walk past a graveyard on a sad night in “Wash Away”.
尽管能在其他地方查到 T.S.O.L. 复杂的历史过往，不过这次，包括采访和整个中国巡演，我们能见到从1983年乐队创立到1999年重组至今一直带领着 T.S.O.L. 的狂热分子主唱 Jack Grisham，原始键盘手Greg Kuehn，以及最近的乐队成员们Trevor Lucca, Antonio Hernandez, Brandon McNally。他们将续写乐队的经典并带来最近的作品。
The band has a complicated history, and you can read about that elsewhere. Just know that at this interview event and the full-China tour, you're getting the band's infamous firebrand lead singer, Jack Grisham, who lead the band from its beginning to 1983, and then for it's permanent reunion from 1999 to today. He'll be joined by the band's original keyboard player, Greg Kuehn, along with the modern-band-members Trevor Lucca, Antonio Hernandez and Brandon McNally keeping the group's legacy and current artistry alive.
T.S.O.L. 将参与这次采访，现场不设演出。活动由DJ BO主持，观众可参与后续自由提问环节。
This event will feature T.S.O.L. but isnot be a music performance. The band will be interviewed by host DJ BO, followed by a chance for audience-members to ask the band questions.
除了作为DJ演出之外，DJ BO还主持过多场采访活动，邀请了众多艺术艺术界的知名人物，将演出和展览背后的故事呈现给大家。其嘉宾包括：Wayne Kramer（The MC5）、Afrika Islam（Ice-T的制作人）、Christopher Makos（安迪·沃霍尔的摄影师）、Gia（挂在盒子上乐队成员）、Steve Boone（The Lovin' Spoonful）和 Sugar Blue（传奇口琴艺术家）。
Along with performing as a DJ, DJ BO has hosted interview events with dozens of arts luminaries, giving a chance for audiences to discover the stories behind what is just presented in performances and exhibitions. Some of those interviewed in the past include: Wayne Kramer (The MC5), Afrika Islam (Ice-T's producer), Christopher Makos (Andy Warhol's photographer), Gia (Hang on the Box), Steve Boone (The Lovin' Spoonful), and Sugar Blue (harmonica legend).
此次采访中，BO 将从他的CD和黑胶唱片收藏中随机播放音乐，乐队可以猜歌，但不会提前知道任何歌曲信息。这首歌有可能是乐队的作品，也有可能是其他不知名的音乐，以此来引出采访问题。
此环节后，观众可向乐队自由提问。OKVLT13 的现场观众具有优先提问权。
For this T.S.O.L. Interview, BO will play a song from his vinyl and CD collection. T.S.O.L.will not be told beforehand what the song will be. They will get a chance to guess the song, which might include anything from the band's own catalogue to something less obvious. The song will then be used to springboard into the next question.
Following this portion, audience-members will then be given the opportunity toask any questions they'd like to the band. A priority will be given to the those attending the event live at OKVLT13.
T.S.O.L. 将开设南京、上海、北京、杭州四城巡演。珍惜亲临这支具有划时代意义的乐队现场的机会！这是他们第一次中国巡演，说不定也是最后一次。
To see the band perform in China, you can see them at these events in Nanjing, Shanghai, Beijing, and Hangzhou. Do not miss the opportunity to see this seminal band perform.It is happening in China for the first time, and likely the last time.
