点评:I don't understand. I'm a huge Blues fan, so I believed that I just had to visit The House of Blues whilst on holiday from the UK. I was hoping for some sort of out of body experience that would take my guitar playing to the level of Robert Johnson. However, whilst the distressed appearance of the restaurant and shop suggested a Blues like experience, it wasn't to be. Both the shop and restaurant have statues of Jake and Elmore Blues, that was about it! We had a meal in the restaurant backed by continuos music. - Every genre from Disco to Country and Western was played but no Blues at all! There was a fantastic lìve band playing on the porch outside which we watched for a while. They really were good and again played anything from Fleetwood Mac (post Peter Green Blues era) to Led Zeppelin, but again, not a single Blues number. I've been to plenty of blues festivals where other genres are also played, but as you would expect being a Blues festival, you are going to hear mainly Blues. Not so at The House of Blues apparently. Not even one single number! The food was dry and a bar maid was incredibly rude and over the top when she gave me my drinks with ice and I very politely pointed out that I ordered no ice. It developed into a completely unnecessary rant about free refills and I could go home and tell everyone that all Americans are glutinous and greedy. Unbelievable! I asked her very nicely to calm down and told her that no offence was intended. But she wouldn't let it go. She said I could have as much Sprite as I wanted for all she cared! Oh well, back to guitar practice!
翻译:我不明白。我是布鲁斯的铁杆粉丝,所以从英国回来度假,我决定去蓝调之屋看看。我希望能体验到某种灵魂出窍的感觉,让我的吉他弹奏水平达到罗伯特·约翰逊的水平。然而,虽然餐厅和商店简陋的外观暗示着某种布鲁斯式的体验,但结果却并非如此。商店和餐厅里都有杰克·布鲁斯和埃尔莫尔·布鲁斯的雕像,但也仅此而已!我们在餐厅用餐,背景音乐不间断。——从迪斯科到乡村和西部,各种音乐类型都播放了,就是没有布鲁斯!外面的门廊上有一支很棒的现场乐队,我们看了一会儿。他们的表演真的很棒,演奏了从弗利特伍德麦克(彼得·格林布鲁斯时代之后)到齐柏林飞艇的各种曲目,但同样,没有一首布鲁斯歌曲。我参加过很多布鲁斯音乐节,那里也会演奏其他类型的音乐,但正如你所预料的那样,作为一个布鲁斯音乐节,你听到的主要是布鲁斯音乐。蓝调之屋显然不是这样。一个数字都没有!食物很干,酒吧女招待给我加冰的饮料时态度极其粗鲁,甚至过分,我很礼貌地指出我点的是无冰的。结果发展成一场完全没必要的关于免费续杯的抱怨,我真想回家告诉所有人,所有美国人都贪吃。难以置信!我非常礼貌地请她冷静下来,并告诉她我无意冒犯。但她就是不肯罢休。她说雪碧想喝多少就喝多少,她才不管呢!算了,回去练吉他吧!
