位于河北省石家庄市裕华区建设大街与龙腾路口的「摇滚墙」于8日被清理,多年来积累在墙面上的万能青年旅店、草东没有派对等乐队的唱片封面及成员图像被抹去[1]。施工单位表示该墙属于工地外墙,需要重新粉刷以用于商业楼宇建设和广告宣传[1]。
这一举措在乐迷和网友间引发不满[1]。有人随后在墙上喷漆表达抗议,留下「摇滚不死」、「华北无浪漫」等标语[1]。值得注意的是,石家庄市政府在2023年7月13日曾宣布打造中国「摇滚之城」,而这面摇滚墙作为城市文化地标的消失,与该愿景形成了鲜明对比[1]。
A cultural landmark in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, known as the "rock wall" was cleared on January 8th.[1] Located at the intersection of Jianshe Street and Longten Road in Yuhua District, the removal stripped away album covers and images of band members that had accumulated over years, including those from bands such as Waning Youth Hostel and Grass East Has No Party.[1] Construction authorities stated the wall, which forms part of a work site's exterior, required repainting for commercial building development and advertising purposes.[1]
The erasure sparked discontent among music enthusiasts and online users.[1] Fans expressed their protest through graffiti on the wall, with messages including "Rock and roll will never die" and "North China has no romance."[1] The incident represents a setback for the city's cultural ambitions, as Shijiazhuang had announced plans in July 2023 to develop itself as China's "rock and roll city."[1]
