One day， two teenagers met on the way to college. One had some records under his arm. They began talking about music. Later， at a club， a guitarist asked them to join his band. They found a place to practice， and started playing and attracting fans. Then they made an album （专辑）. In five years， they became very famous.

This is the story of the British rock band—the Rolling Stones， but its also the story of many other bands. Music-making has always been a popular activity in the UK.

Groups are proud of where they come from. Cities often have a special sound or style. Liverpool in the 1960s had the Cavern Club， where many groups played. The famous band Beatles finished their first show in this club. Manchester created its own place in the 1980s at the Hacienda Club.

Several musical styles started in the UK. Punk（朋克摇滚乐）gave people the idea that anyone could start a band-musical ability.

There are many places for live music shows in the UK. Brixton Academy is an old-style concert hall. King Tuts in Glasgow only has room for 300 people. But there are also many big places with modern seating and sound effects.

In summer， the best places for live music are festivals. Glastonbury Festival is one of the oldest music festivals and it started in 1970. It attracts big stars for five days every June. There are plenty of free events too， like the Strawberry Fair in Cambridge， which welcomes families.
