He said that when Metallichihuahua was starting out, they played a concert from the rooftop of a building in the middle of the city, and it caused a huge scene. The police and fire departments shut them down, but by the time they did, Metallichihuahua was already all over the news.

他说金属吉娃娃乐队刚出道的时候，曾在市中心一栋建筑的屋顶开演唱会，还闹出了不小的动静。 警察和消防部门赶来叫停了演出，但等他们赶到时，金属吉娃娃已经传遍所有新闻了。

The band got fined for disturbing the peace, and even spent the night in jail. Then they used their mug shots on the cover of their first album. DOG COLLARED Rodrick's big idea was to do a show from the top of the same building Metallichihuahua played on thirty years ago. Mackie wasn't crazy about the idea, though, because he said that getting arrested wouldn't look good on his college applications.

这支乐队因扰乱公共秩序被罚款，还在监狱里待了一整晚。 之后他们就把入狱照用在了首张专辑的封面上。 《落难狗狗》 罗德里克的好点子是，去三十年前金属吉娃娃演出过的同一栋楼的屋顶开演唱会。 不过麦基不喜欢这个主意，因为他说被捕留记录会对他的大学申请不好。

But Rodrick said that the minute they saw the police coming, they'd take off. And I guess Mackie wanted to be a team player, because he agreed to go along with it. So this afternoon the guys packed up the ice cream truck with all their equipment and drove downtown. Their plan was to use the elevator to get to the roof. But security's gotten a lot tighter since that rooftop concert, so Rodrick and his bandmates didn't even get past the lobby.

可罗德里克说，他们一看见警察来立马就跑。 麦基想配合团队，所以就同意这么做了。 所以今天下午，大伙把所有装备都搬上冰淇淋车，开车往市区去了。 他们打算坐电梯上屋顶。 可自从那场屋顶演唱会之后，安保严格了很多，罗德里克和队友连大厅都没进去。

The guys weren't ready to give up, though, so they parked in an alleyway and waited by a side door until someone came out. Then they started making their way up the stairwell with their equipment. But that turned out to be a lot harder than they thought it would be. Bill wanted to turn around and find a building that didn't have so many floors. But Rodrick said they were already committed and they just needed to keep going.

不过大伙没打算放弃，他们把车停在小巷里，在侧门等着有人出来。 接着他们带着装备顺着楼梯间往上爬。 可这事比他们预想的要难太多了。 比尔想调头去找一栋楼层没这么多的楼。 可罗德里克说都走到这一步了，他们得继续往上走。

After taking lots of breaks between floors, they finally got up onto the rooftop. Then they set up all their equipment, but couldn't find any electrical outlets for their speakers and guitars. So Rodrick tried to get the lady who lived in the apartment one floor below to let them use her outlet. SHRIEK!!! The guys thought the lady was gonna call the cops, and they all got spooked. So they gathered up their gear and went back down the stairwell.

每层都歇了好多次之后，他们终于爬上了屋顶。 接着他们架好了所有装备，却找不到插座接音箱和吉他。 所以罗德里克去找住在楼下一层的住户女士，想借她家插座用用。 尖叫！！！ 大伙以为这位女士要报警，全都吓得慌了神。 所以他们收拾好装备，顺着楼梯间往回跑了。

It should've been easier going down than coming up, but they were in a rush, so their getaway didn't go that smoothly. As soon as the guys made it back out to the alley with all their gear, they started loading it into the ice cream truck.

下楼本来比上楼轻松，可他们太着急了，所以逃跑过程一点都不顺利。 大伙带着所有装备刚回到小巷，就赶紧把东西往冰淇淋车上搬。
