It was mid-June, 1972, the Chicago Amphitheater was packed, sweltering, rocking.     1972年6月中旬的一天，芝加哥圆形剧场座无虚席，闷热难耐，全场都沉浸在摇滚的律动中。
Onstage, Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones was singing "Midnight Rambler."     舞台上，滚石乐队的米克·贾格尔正在演唱《午夜漫步者》。
Critic Don Heckman was there when the song ended. "Jagger," he said, "grabs a half-gallon jug of water and runs along the front platform, sprinkling its contents over the first few rows of sweltering listeners. They surge to follow him, eager to be touched by a few baptismal drops."     歌曲结束时，评论家唐·赫克曼就在现场。他回忆道：“贾格尔抓起一个半加仑的水壶，沿着前台边缘奔跑，把水洒向前几排汗流浃背的听众。人群蜂拥着追随着他，迫切地想要被这几滴带有洗礼意味的水珠沾到。”
It was late December, 1973. Some 14,000 screaming fans were crunching up to the front of the stage at Capital Center, outside Washington, D.C.     1973年12月底，约14000名尖叫的歌迷挤在华盛顿特区外的首都中心剧场，乱哄哄地涌向台前。
Alice Cooper, America's singing ghoul, was ending his act. He ends it by pretending to end his life--with a guillotine. His "head" drops into a straw basket. "Ooh," gasped a girl dressed in black. "Oh, isn't that marvelous?"     美国的“幽灵歌手”艾丽斯·库珀正在收尾他的演出。他用假装被断头台处决的方式结束表演，他的“头颅”滚落到一个草编篮子里。一个穿黑衣的女孩倒吸一口气惊呼：“哇，这简直太不可思议了，不是吗？”
Fourteen-year-old Mike Perlie was there too, but his parents weren't. "They think he's sick, sick, sick," Mike said. "They say to me, 'How can you stand that stuff?'"     14岁的迈克·珀利也在现场，他的父母却没有来。迈克说：“他们觉得我疯了，完全不可理喻，他们质问我‘你怎么能忍受这种东西？’”
It was late January, 1974. Inside the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York, Bob Dylan and The Band were tuning for a concert. Outside, in the pouring rain, fan Chris Singer was waiting to get in. "This is pilgrimage," Chris said, "I ought to be crawling on my knees."     1974年1月下旬，在纽约州尤宁代尔的拿骚体育馆内，鲍勃·迪伦和他的乐队正在为演唱会调试乐器。场馆外，歌迷克里斯·辛格在倾盆大雨中等待入场。他说：“这是一场朝圣，我甚至应该跪着爬进去。
