August 29-30 MGM Music Hall at Fenway, Boston, Massachusetts

[silver lintel]

his setup on stage was also really cool

like he managed to make a small area but also make it creative and engaging

[thick urchin]

i didn’t really listen to his music before this but i really gotta bc i really enjoyed his set

[foggy citrus]

Finally got back to the hotel. Gn y'all

[thick urchin]

gn!

[rough sand]

ahhhh omg i didnt want any bracelets in return!! i came just with a friend actually and befriended the people next to me he

[foggy citrus]

[brazen wren]

His music reminded me of a Spiderverse soundtrack, I loved it

[silver lintel]

search and destroy and >one are both nice listens

[brazen wren]

Night night!

[slow vessel]

fr!! Was a bit nervous because I didn't know what to expect but he seems really cool actually

[thick urchin]

i still have like 3ish more hours before i get to sleep, might be pulling a full 24hrs awake for porter 😭

[silver lintel]

i just showed up alone because i was not letting anyone get in the way of my attending thr show

[slate crescent]

My only critique of Erics set was ||he spent half of it sitting on the bed💀||

[silver lintel]

probably wouldve been nice to not be alone

but like i was going

[silver lintel]

i mean tbf he didnt have a super big space

[slate crescent]

I wish I could go tomorrow but there’s literally no flights when I need them on Saturday

I was surprised he played ||everything goes on|| actually

[pale jasper]

[CONFETTI]

god I'm so hyped for tonight

crazy to think im going to a porter concert when I was introduced to him via siivagunner

time flies by so fast man

[supple lance]

is the person who had the medical episode during easier to love you last night ok? 🥺

figured someone here might now bc there was a few people close to the front

[fallen lodge]

It’s been so long since i’ve seen a headliner play a near two hour set, particularly in that venue

Made me feel less bad about buying presale

Does anyone know if there were signed posters ala Shelter tour?

Also folks who are going today but didnt go yesterday i got to venue shortly after doors opened and i got through merch after like 10- 15 mins. That being said today is def more sold

[pale jasper]

thats fine I'm probably just gonna get a t-shirt as merch

god im so fucking excited I literally cant wait

[floral void]

I hope everyone has so much fun tonight!

[fallen lodge]

Ngl wish the VIP lanyard was for sale they crushed thst

[heavy swift]

i wish the vip hat was for sale i like it more than the one they have

[fallen lodge]

Yep

[floral void]

I love Boston, I definitely need to be back and check out some other stuff like the museums

Maybe I'll see Aurora at the mgm this December

[fallen lodge]

Museum of Science slaps

Isabella Gardner Museum has lots of great spots for IG and intriguing history

[floral void]

Awesome

[thick urchin]

MFA is another awesome museum too!

there’s also the WNDR museum that has a bunch of awesome interactive art exhibits at it

[fallen lodge]

I keep getting IG ads for that, glad to know it’s worth it

[thick urchin]

that’s how i ended up finding it as well, it was def a worthwile experience!!

[fallen lodge]

Thanks for the rec!!

[eager crescent]

what does the lanyard look like?

[hot vector]

Get to the venue 3 hours early

Buy early entry or vip

Vip is more expensige

[fallen lodge]

Didnt get one but its a variation of Porter on the Smile album cover

[hot vector]

Anyway ❤️

[foggy citrus]

There weren't, but I saw Porter and Ericdoa afterwards and got mine signed. I need to buy a poster frame on my way back home

[supple lance]

I love the staging for this tour

[foggy citrus]

It's so good

[supple lance]

very uwu

[foggy citrus]

Loved the giant inflatable

[fallen lodge]

Michaels tends to have really good deals on frames if you wait for a 60% coupon

FYI never use command strips on your posters all you do is destroy your posters and lose money off your security deposit

[floral void]

Wish I could have stayed later

That's awesome

[fallen lodge]

Happen to measure your poster by chance?

[foggy citrus]

Don't have anything to measure it with

[fallen lodge]

I remember the Nurture Poster being really odd dimensions

[foggy citrus]

I'm in the hotel waiting for my sister to wake up

[fallen lodge]

Valid

[floral void]

I'm at Dunkin donuts killing time waiting for my bus lol

[fallen lodge]

True Masshole experience

[foggy citrus]

The poster is massive. Definitely dwarfs my ID Evolve Tour poster

[floral void]

So real

Im basically a Bostonian

[foggy citrus]

Average mass morning

[fallen lodge]

It's probably 24x36 but couldn't immediately tell

[hot vector]

I’m so jealous lol

[floral void]

Were there a lot of people getting signatures from Porter and Eric? @foggy citrus

[hot vector]

Were you the one by the tour busses @foggy citrus

[foggy citrus]

About 10 of us at max. Any more and Porter probably would've dipped and not done anything. I remember he got overwhelmed after the nurture show my friend went to

[floral void]

That's nice that it wasn't a lot

[fallen lodge]

Yeah i'm surprised it was that little

[foggy citrus]

I was by the staff door and a rental transit van

[hot vector]

Mmm okay

Our feet were too tired to wait ngl

[foggy citrus]

I was tired and in a ton of pain but I have this little buff called insomnia so I had no problem staying awake

[floral void]

Yeah same

Especially from jumping

[foggy citrus]

Jumping was my relief from the pain of standing

[fallen lodge]

Yeah I had to walk out of the crowd a couple times

[floral void]

I wish I could go to another show it was so amazing aaaa

[foggy citrus]

Same

[fallen lodge]

I forgot MGM has TVs set up on the concourse so I just popped a squat and alternated between watching on there and watching a partial view from where I was dying

[fallen lodge]

That was your first concert right?

[floral void]

If I had realized how amazing it was I might have made a more sustainable hotel plan, and went both nights tbh

Yeah

[fallen lodge]

That's so awesome!

[floral void]

And now I am infected and want to go to a bunch

[fallen lodge]

Picked a heck of a show for your first one

[floral void]

Fr

Porter doesn't miss

[foggy citrus]

Amazing first concert.

[fallen lodge]

deadmau5 was my first concert without my parents and that was quite an experience

[floral void]

Got my something comforting bracelet from plum lunes

🔥

[fallen lodge]

If you do regularly go to concerts you should look into buying a pair of re-wearable earbuds (way more comfier than the disposible ones and doesn't drown out the noise as much)

I forgot my earbuds and my ears aren't ringing so that's nice

[floral void]

I uhm. Didn't put my earplugs in lol. Bad idea I know

But my ears are fine thankfully

I'll definitely invest in good ones if I go regularly to concerts

[fallen lodge]

Yeah the venue wasn't super loud surprisingly - try not to make it a habit!

[foggy citrus]

Went to imagine dragons with my girlfriend as an anniversary trip as my first one without parents. Can't ever tell her this was the better show. And I didn't even have to drive home same night

[floral void]

I hope the red rocks show is streamed to meta horizon

A lot of shows at red rocks are

[foggy citrus]

I actually ended up wearing mine

[floral void]

Good

[scarlet jetty]

That would be awesome

[floral void]

I would set my XM4s to bass boost and just vibe in VR for 3 hours lol

[foggy citrus]

I'd love to watch Smile Red Rocks in vr. Plug in my Senns and enjoy the concert at my favorite sound profile

[floral void]

So what is the yt channel of the person in here who was recording the show?

If anyone knows

[foggy citrus]

The only time I felt more bass than last night was at a car sound system competition. Scary.

[floral void]

Haha

[foggy citrus]

I think it's Chris Carl

[floral void]

Thanks

Found the channel

[foggy citrus]

There'll probably be an upload in 24 to 72 hours if it really was him

[floral void]

Also funny story, I was trying to record the part of the Russian Roulette visuals with my discord message on it, and my phone got a bad angle and missed it lol

But I can just get it from another recording

Can't believe I'm technically featured in every show

Along with tons of others

[foggy citrus]

Recorded a lot of it on my 3ds.

[floral void]

I recorded a bit on mine too

Saw another 3ds guys as well

[foggy citrus]

My phone didn't even make it past Language

[foggy citrus]

Got 3 streetpasses

[floral void]

I tried to not use my phone a lot but some moments were so amazing I just had to

[floral void]

I got 2

including yours

[foggy citrus]

My 3 was including yours

Idk how I got a third ping

[floral void]

I'm trying to convince my friends to go to a porter concert but they mostly hate him just because I never stfu about him
One of them might go to the Dublin show so that's awesome

[foggy citrus]

Recording KYOXD on the 3DS was amazing. You just hear "bitch I'm Taylor swift" and then everything is inaudible again

[floral void]

I like how they censored Taylor Swift

I need to get a picture of that to piss off my swiftie friends

No shade on Taylor of course

[brazen wren]

Few of my fav shots from last night

[floral void]

I'm definitely gonna listen to the setlist on the bus

And the interview

[tepid shuttle]

i did this with a 100 gecs concert like 3 years ago and "hey you little piss baby, you think you're so fucking cool? huh? you think you're so fucking tough" was audible but the rest of the song is just crunchy as fuck LMAOOO

[foggy citrus]

Really hoping the line-ins are making it to AM+ again

[foggy citrus]

Honestly, it makes for really funny video to just have

That's most of why I packed it

That and streetpass. These are porter fans we're talking about. Of course there will be streetpass

[tepid shuttle]

my 3ds was dead and i forgot to pack my charger so i couldn't this time lol

i wish i could've though because we would have streetpassed :p

[fallen lodge]

Genuinely shocked a 3DS could pick up anything discernable from a gecs show lmao

[foggy citrus]

Would've been cool to get some more

[tepid shuttle]

800db cloud was, predictably, inaudible

[fallen lodge]

Too good

ngl someone was dropping lures in PKGO during ericdoa's set and I did get distracted during one song trying to evolve as many electric types as I could

[tepid shuttle]

that's too funny wtf

[fallen lodge]

High key think that the ||visuals on the billboard sign|| were inspired by the 3DS/gameboy camerfolks

[foggy citrus]

Didn't even think to log into pkgo

[floral void]

I almost suffocated because someone was smoking weed near me for a minute lmao
I think security noticed though because the smell went away

[fallen lodge]

I will say there were some particularly rank smells during this show

and not just weed

[floral void]

Also someone straight up was using a lighter as a light, is that
... Allowed??

[floral void]

Stanky Porter fans

[fallen lodge]

That used to be a gold standard, don't see it too often nowadays since everyone uses their phone instead

[floral void]

Ah

[foggy citrus]

This really smelly dude literally pulled me back by the shirt, got in front of me, and blocked my view. I'm 6'0 and I couldn't see over this guy.

[brazen wren]

😂😂😂😂

I did hear some people on the floor were absolutely not so nice

[fallen lodge]

Literally pulled you that's mad weird

[brazen wren]

And I’m like what the heck is going on

[floral void]

Wasn't there a guy that was harassing someone and security got them

Near the front

[brazen wren]

Most likely, Porter had to pause twice

[floral void]

The first was because someone had a seizure I think:(

[brazen wren]

Yes the first was absolutely an emergency

second I think somebody was being weird

[foggy citrus]

I loved being floor, because I I've always done lawn and gone far from the stage. But there were two rude guys. One stepped over a girl and the other pulled me back and didn't even bother with deodorant

[brazen wren]

I would’ve ended his whole experience, I despise people like that

I threw a guy a couple of rows away from me because he tried to rip me off the rail during Shelter

[fallen lodge]

lmao

[floral void]

I was scared at the jumping part because I was worried I would accidentally step on toes

[brazen wren]

I’m tiny but mighty

[floral void]

What the hell, people are so ridiculous

[brazen wren]

I’m very quick to defend myself or anyone else around me from people like that

[foggy citrus]

People were also hitting my sister's bag. Gave it back to her in case I was hitting someone. Nope. Someone was just repeatedly hitting the bag

[brazen wren]

Yeah and he grabbed me inappropriately I was not having it!

Security saw me throw him and said nothing LMAO

[foggy citrus]

He more than deserved what was coming.

[fallen lodge]

I just accept i'm not going to have personal space when I go to shows

[floral void]

Yeah

[brazen wren]

oh yes I don’t mind people clumping, dancing and cheering and having a blast

But the second you act up

You gotta go >>>

[foggy citrus]

Idk what happened after the pandemic but concerts don't feel anywhere near as unified as they used to

[open flower]

oh yikes af yeah deserved for them to be thrown off bc jfc

[brazen wren]

I only saw it in New York for one of the Nurture shows where this couple literally tried to beat a friend of mine off rail

We were ready to throw down

But he held his own

[brazen wren]

Yeah Porter commented on it last night, it’s a weird vibe. This never used to happen 😭

[foggy citrus]

Yeah

[brazen wren]

People be crazy over here LMAO

[foggy citrus]

I remember seeing slushii and the whole group was great. Now I've heard nobody is respectful like they were before

[brazen wren]

85% of the time they are, you get your couple of bad apples that just try and wedge themselves to the front or just stomp on people around them and we need to just take care of each other

can’t let that vibe set the tone of the entire tour

[foggy citrus]

Been too busy since starting college to really go to concerts now

[brazen wren]

Nurture Live was 95% excellent crowd wise

I hope we have the same success rate lol

[foggy citrus]

I still really enjoyed last night. Just a couple of annoyances

[brazen wren]

Oh of course!!

Last night was absolutely epic in every way

One of my absolute favorite live shows I’ve ever seen from Porter

[foggy citrus]

The language edit tho. 10 year old me playing fh1 would be blown away hearing that

[brazen wren]

Cried like a baby

[foggy citrus]

I actually kept it together this time

[floral void]

I think one of my favorite parts was when shelter started

They did it in a really awesome way

[brazen wren]

That edit went hard

[floral void]

I feel so happy just thinking about the show

[foggy citrus]

There weren't any songs he didn't do justice other than 100% itb. The bait and switch was uncalled for

[foggy citrus]

Same

[floral void]

It was funny when he joked about it at least

[fallen lodge]

I do low key agree with that

[floral void]

He got a bbl 😔

[fallen lodge]

Admittedly bias since the first time I saw Porter was a DJ set in a goth night club in Nashua NH during the Spitfire era

[foggy citrus]

It was. Just remembering when he joked about it in nurture. And shelter. And VS. It deserves a live edit at this point

[foggy citrus]

I got into his music before Worlds dropped. So I'm kinda biased too

[fallen lodge]

I had to warm up to Worlds overtime

Wasn't ready for it (Besides Divinity)

Having a similar thing with Smile (Besides Cheerleader)

[foggy citrus]

I clicked with a couple of songs right away, but didn't really warm up to the rest for years

[fallen lodge]

Yeah I didn't even see Worlds live, which I was particualrly bummed about in the short term since I got into Giraffage after he opened

[foggy citrus]

I wasn't a fan until I started reading the lyrics and the whole thing just clicked for me

[foggy citrus]

I was like 11 when worlds live started. I had no chance to go

[fallen lodge]

I'm on the wrong side of 30 so I did but i've made up for it since

I assume either I watched the Worlds Coachella performance or Shelter really made it click for me

[foggy citrus]

I also used to be a vtuber and had a good sized audience (7k followers) so I kinda understand some of the feelings about the fans. It was not easy being responsible when fans trauma dump on you. I loved them all anyways. Parasocial relationships hit different from the performer side of it all.

[foggy citrus]

I'm 20. Haven't had many chances to go to concerts on my own or with my sister (who's in her early 30s) yet

Saw Train at Bethel woods tho. That was also a great concert. Not quite as good as Porter but spectacular nonetheless

[astral dawn]

Omg I’ve been saying exactly this. People don’t bump like they used to/or are EXTREMELY rude

[foggy citrus]

They should start giving little sticks of deodorant at the door to everyone

Incessant bumping wouldn't be as bad if it wasn't also like half of the people around me were rank

[floral void]

I felt like there were more moments that people would have jumped during the concert but then I was just jumping by myself

[brazen wren]

I’m in my young 30s so the first Porter show I went to was in 2012

It’s been a while

[fallen lodge]

Always going to be plenty of awesome of shows to go to

[brazen wren]

^ entirely this!!

[floral void]

I think I smelled bad ugh, I got all freshened up before the show and immediately got sweaty when it started :(

Lol

Oh well

[fallen lodge]

If you showered that's better than a decent percentage of the crowd probably

Always have a couple white whales / what if shows but overall def can more than make it up with the shows you can go to

[brazen wren]

I can’t believe it was that bad!

[astral dawn]

SAMMMEEEEE

[foggy citrus]

I actually didn't sweat. At all. It was kinda weird

[floral void]

Lucky

[foggy citrus]

I probably should've been more active. I think I only hit 20k steps yesterday

[floral void]

I'll check my steps

I hit 15,700

[foggy citrus]

20,972

Lazy day for me lol

[ionic marlin]

who's going today?

also shoutout balls chant

[floral void]

BALLS BALLS BALLS

[rough lynx]

Hopping on this conversation - middle of floor was pretty good I felt. People let me by quite nicely as I was dipping to get rid of cans / get a new drink a few times. Crowds always feel a bit different based on the city / artist as well as my own personal headspace. I think things get a bit more aggressive the closer to stage you get and have been that way since pre-pandemic but also I think it's a totally valid point to feel like things have changed since the pandemic.

[rough lynx]

Was this the Skrillex / zedd / porter show? That was my first porter experience as well

[ionic marlin]

WAIT U WENT???

YOOO

[floral void]

Isn't zedd at the mgm later this year

[wicked spade]

where did u end up!?? i wanna line up early but don't want it to not be worth it bc of VIP early entry

[brazen wren]

Yes yes!!

[brazen wren]

First one was the Language Tour! I went to Silver Springs and Houston

I missed the Spitfire tour

[floral void]

Nurture Porter Robinson was first in line 🔥

[tulip wren]

i wonder if someone would be willing to sell their VIP hat to me

hmmmm i may ask on the subreddit

[lament tree]

In like three weeks!

[floral void]

That's cool

[lament tree]

A few of my favorite shots from last night

Can’t wait for tonight!

[pale jasper]

WAIT UR GOING BACK TONIGHT????

IM GONNA BE THERE

[heavy swift]

same its actually the only merch item i even like and its vip only 😭

[floral void]

have fun guys :DD

Sadly I'm on the way home rn lol

[clear plaza]

Yo, any parking recommendations close to MGM? debating if I should wing it or reserve a parking spot ahead of time

[tulip wren]

😭😭😭😭 and the subreddit has no selling posts allowed so im bummin

[calm talon]

Reserve, it was like 75+ last night for drive up

[clear plaza]

Thank you!

[pale jasper]

im being dropped off either way so im good lol

[tulip wren]

public transit ftw

[heavy swift]

living in walking distance of the venue ftw

[tulip wren]

oh thats the most based

[clear plaza]

I wish. I live too far and wouldn’t make the commuter rail in time

[pale jasper]

lucky bastard

[tulip wren]

ok fair, its probably most convenient to drive anyway

tho i dont know if id like driving in boston 😭

[clear plaza]

lol it’s rough esp on a Friday, originally from rural Midwest.

[tulip wren]

oh man.. yeah those long windy roads are nothing compared to the craziness of Boston esp on a friday at night

i hope you have a safe trip

[lament tree]

I am! We were floor last night and tonight we're in the upper section, gonna see if maybe we can upgrade

[pale jasper]

damn, im on the floor tonight

[lament tree]

lmao the subreddit is ridiculous in how restrictive they've been with posts lately

I don't partake in that corner of the community nearly as much as I used to because of it, mods are a a bit much

[lament tree]

Were you there last night? Sorry I just realized I should spoiler tag my photos.

[pale jasper]

i wasnt there last night but idc about spoilers since its literally the start of the tour rn lol

[lament tree]

Well you're gonna have an amazing time especially on the floor

[pale jasper]

frfr i know that

[lament tree]

Of the nearly 10 times I've seen Porter now, last night was 1000% the best and it's not even close. Better than Worlds Live in 2014, better than Nurture Live in 2021.

[thick urchin]

the drive across MA was rough yesterday - my sister was in rural MA so we drove a collective 12 hours to get her and bring her home for work tomorrow so she could come w us to see porter 😭

[lament tree]

Jesus

didn't help that there was a Red Sox game at Fenway last night either

[thick urchin]

i think i was awake a full 24hrs yesterday for porter

so worth it tho

[lament tree]

1000%

[fallen lodge]

Respect

Yeah no Red Sox game tonight is going to help a lot

[thick urchin]

oh for sure it’ll be better getting in if there’s no sox game

[fallen lodge]

Same parking spot I had last night is literally half of what I paid yesterday wacky

[thick urchin]

that’s wilddd

yeah we paid big bucks for parking yesterday

[lament tree]

I will say I wish I just waited until tonight to buy merch since I was on the floor and tonight I'll be in a seat and won't have to worry about losing anything lmao

[fallen lodge]

I paid more for parking then I did my floor ticket lmao

[lament tree]

but I was worried it was gonna sell out

[fallen lodge]

I wonder if any merch sold out last night

I'm assuming not since first day of the tour plus multiple shows

[lament tree]

I'm sure if anything did, they have an allotment for tonight

[thick urchin]

i ended up attaching all my merch to my bag so i looked so goofy but it was whatever i accepted that fate

[lament tree]

I tried stuffing our three shirts into the poster tube with my poster and it... did not work lmao

so I had them slung over my shoulder all night praying I didn't drop them or that someone wouldn't yoink them

Merch goes hard though

[fallen lodge]

Yeah I put the shirt I got through my belt

[thick urchin]

it goes SO HARD

[lament tree]

ooooo that's clever

[fallen lodge]

I only bought the devil shirt but i'm v tempted on the longsleeve

[thick urchin]

i have plans to tie dye the after it was cool shirt i wanna do it so bad

[fallen lodge]

Oooh that's a solid play

[thick urchin]

i got the long sleeve i fold for a good tie dye

[lament tree]

My girlfriend got the long sleeve, I got the blue/white tie dye and Worlds 2 shirts + the poster and 2 sticker sheets (one to keep and one for my vinyl giveaway I'm doing on Insta when the box sets ship)

and I also scooped up a bunch of the heart confetti to fill up the giveaway package as a surprise

[fallen lodge]

I might duck out a teeny bit early during cheerleader to grab stickers since I refuse to pay shipping for it but I dont wanna scuff it up during the show

[lament tree]

I wouldn't worry about it that, they come on a thicker card stock board so they stay firm

I was super worried about bending mine up too

[fallen lodge]

I might try and bribe the person at the info booth to buy a VIP lanyard near the end of the show too, ngl I like it more than the merch

[floral void]

I think I was standing next to you

[slate crescent]

Might be a dumb question but are we allowed to wear merch from the first night to the second night

[lament tree]

Center right up front? You may have been!

[floral void]

Yup!

[slate crescent]

Idk if they’re gonna get mad or somethin

[floral void]

Sorry I didn't say hi, I didn't realize it was you

[lament tree]

of course you are

Anyone who gets mad over what you choose to wear out is a clown lmao

[lament tree]

No need to apologize! Were you the one wearing the fuzzy black gloves?

[floral void]

No

I had a Zelda t shirt

And a bag over my shoulder

[lament tree]

I kept bumping into the person wearing them and was like "what am I feeling right now" and then I realized lmao

[floral void]

Lol

Those gloves were pretty neat though

[fallen lodge]

Nah if anything you're enticing others to want to buy the merch so you're doing a solid!

[slate crescent]

I mean I did get 4 shirts lmao

[floral void]

Im wearing my porter hoodie on the bus rn, very cozy

[fallen lodge]

I don't think I saw anyone wearing a Galaxxxy Worlds drop

Which I have seen at every other Porter show i've been to which is wack

[brazen wren]

Me too, cozy hours

[lament tree]

I think I saw someone with the Galaxxxy hat last night

was super jealous

[thick urchin]

i wanted to wear my shelter shirt so bad but i couldn’t find it before traveling to boston for the show i was so bummed

[fallen lodge]

God i'd be so paranoid of it falling off

[lament tree]

Fucking same

It's always tough too when it's merch that people flip for $$$$ so if it falls off, you're probably not getting it back

I haven't used my plushie Potaro keychain yet for that exact reason, I'm worried something is gonna happen to it

I saw some people with the Potaro bag last night and I was anxious for them

[rough sand]

to everyone going tonight have fun and stay safe and hydrated!! you’re about to experience PEAK

[lament tree]

For real, please stay hydrated. Someone passed out pretty shortly into the set last night, presumably because they weren't staying hydrated.

It's not worth putting your health at risk and missing the show

[rough sand]

there were water bottles being passed out by security at the front and the crowd was working together to pass them back but definitely buy water if you can!!

[thick urchin]

they had a little water cup station for free as well from what i remember!!

[lament tree]

Security came in so fucking clutch with that last night, I was just about to suck it up and leave my spot up front to buy water before they started giving them out

[thick urchin]

but yes 100% stay hydrated!!!

security was fucking awesome making sure people stayed hydrated

[pale jasper]

year of the cup fr

[rough sand]

security was FANTASTIC

[lament tree]

like it wasn't even about the $$$ I just didn't wanna lose my spot lmao ;-;

[floral void]

Interesting that ||he closed with cheerleader instead||

[thick urchin]

gave my sister and friend some water when they started struggling halfway through the show

[floral void]

No complaints from me though

[lament tree]

I still can't believe ||they played Hollowheart||

[wicked spade]

also got free ice water from the second floor bar :)

[lament tree]

I'm blanking on the bass player's name but holy shit can she sing

[thick urchin]

margot?

[lament tree]

Yes!

[thick urchin]

she was so fucking good

[floral void]

Yeah I agree! I was scared from yelp reviews, glad they were proven wrong

[lament tree]

As someone who works at a music venue, with stuff like Yelp you're mostly gonna get the horror stories.

People will, rightfully so, take the time to complain about the bad but very rarely take the time to talk about the good

[heavy swift]

you were all the way up front?? when did you get in line?

[floral void]

That checks out

[rough lynx]

Bass player was VIBING all night, loved that for her

[sand shore]

Yeah this is mostly why I just avoid user reviews nowadays.

[lament tree]

We showed up pretty late, like 6:45 or so. Went in, immediately sat in the merch line and by the time we were actually on the floor there weren't too many people there but thankfully we had a friend pull us up to the front. Not literally on the rail, but just before it.

[pale jasper]

yeah I wanna get close to front

[lament tree]

If it hadn't been for that friend we still would have been pretty close though

[pale jasper]

do i gotta get there at EXACTLY 7

[lament tree]

so my advice is don't sweat it too hard

[heavy swift]

yeah it seemed pretty empty before eric's set

[rough sand]

I think about 20 or so people were in GA line at 5pm when I got there

[floral void]

Uhh. Id say 6-630 tbh

[lament tree]

I would try and get there no later than 6:30 especially if you plan on buying merch beforehand

but still, don't sweat it too hard

[floral void]

I got near the front of Ticketmaster fast lane and immediately got my merch and I couldn't make it to rail

[thick urchin]

my friends and i managed to make it to the barricade getting there at 6:50/7ish - we split up with two going straight to GA, and one of us sitting in merch line and buying for the group to be paid back later on so we could snag good spots

[heavy swift]

i wanna be on the barricade so bad im worried it will just be vip people

[lament tree]

Yeah the spots along the rail are gonna fill up quick especially since VIP gets in early. If you want to be RIGHT on the rail, I'd get VIP.

But if you're okay with being just behind those folks, don't sweat it too hard

[lament tree]

tbh it probably will be

[rough sand]

yeah i can confirm rail was taken by VIP last night

[pale jasper]

yeah I just wanna be near the front

[heavy swift]

rip

[lament tree]

This is maybe spoilerish so I apologize but

[heavy swift]

how much is vip upgrade

[rough sand]

there were maybe like a couple people behind me before fast lane got in after

like

[lament tree]

there weren't any fan interaction moments last night, like having someone play Sad Machine on the launch pad

[rough sand]

a row and a half of vip

[lament tree]

so if your concern is being on the rail so you have a chance at that, don't sweat it

[rough sand]

that is correct

[lament tree]

a lot

[pale jasper]

nah i just wanna experience it from the front lol

[lament tree]

the hat you get with it is neat and the lanyard is cool but tbh I don't know if I'd recommend it. It's mostly just Livenation trying to rip you off.

[pale jasper]

or well

close to it

[lament tree]

Yeah I wouldn't bother with VIP, just get there at a reasonable time (like 6-6:30) if you can

[rough sand]

i very much enjoyed the rail experience but im also incredibly parasocial so take my opinion with a grain of salt <3

Regardless there is no bad seat at that venue and GA in general is so fun

[wicked spade]

i low key want barricade for something to hold on to it looked scary down there last night 😅

[lament tree]

Naw it was pretty chill

[pale jasper]

ill probably leave by 6:15 since its like 45-50 minutes away from where i live

[lament tree]

I mean I'm old so my feet were soar af before Ericdoa was even off the stage so I'm looking forward to having a seat tonight LOL

[lament tree]

I'd leave earlier if you can

[silver lintel]

idk why it just occurred to me he didnt play ||blossom||

[pale jasper]

6 it is then

[lament tree]

because while there's no Red Sox game tonight, it's still Boston

there will be traffic

[pale jasper]

yeah i figured

[lament tree]

If you're looking at a 45-50 minute trip without taking traffic into account, I'd leave at like 5:30 personally

[flat shale]

somehow over the course of the show i got a little bit behind but close enough in front

[wicked spade]

|| i wasn't expecting it but it's my fav 😭||

[silver lintel]

that is so early what

[wicked spade]

did u start out at barrier or nah

[lament tree]

Not really, it'd have them there at 6:30 which is 30 minutes before doors

[silver lintel]

i kinda figured hed keep playing it because of the sentiment

[silver lintel]

oh vip shit

?

[lament tree]

Nah, they just wanna get up front

I mean if you're there closer to 7 like we were last night, I think it'll be fine but then again with tonight's show being on a Friday I'm not sure how it sold compared to last night

[foggy citrus]

The viridian. 5pm to 3am was 60

[lament tree]

I assumed more people came last night than will tonight because it's the first of the tour, but maybe tonight is busier because it's a Friday

[silver lintel]

simple solution is pull the fire alarm to make everyone leave

[lament tree]

GG EZ

[foggy citrus]

Friday sold way better

[lament tree]

yeah you really shouldn't be there any later than 6:30 if you wanna be up front, then @pale jasper

[slate crescent]

I was right behind people at the rails and I wasn’t VIP

[lament tree]

Especially if you're getting merch before you go in

[pale jasper]

yeah I'm definitely leaving by like 5-5:30

[slate crescent]

I skipped the merch line and went right for getting a spot

[rough sand]

hi bestie 🤝

[wicked spade]

what time did u get there? :3

[lament tree]

The merch line moved surprisingly quick

We probably could have been closer to the rail had we skipped merch but that friend I mentioned came in super clutch thankfully

[floral void]

Thanks again for helping me get to the middle

[slate crescent]

Got in line around 5:30-6

[lament tree]

Oh also that's another thing, the venue is CARD ONLY so be prepared

[floral void]

Based

[lament tree]

they don't take cash, at least not at merch

maybe at the bar but idk

[silver lintel]

all im saying is its not illegal if they dont catch you

[silver lintel]

whole venue is no cash

sign on door says it

[fallen lodge]

Oh wow I didn't realize that, not too surprised ig

If you're going for merch i'd rec getting there for doors

[silver lintel]

cash is a damn near dead currency

[fallen lodge]

and any google estimate for driving / subway i'd tack on another half hour to that

[rough sand]

the tall boy that was with me helping to pass out water last night took these and holy shit

[slate crescent]

That fourth pic is goated

[floral void]

Amazing

[silver lintel]

do you have a picture of the big fuck you visual

[lament tree]

[sacred steeple]

🧍‍♂️

[rough sand]

[silver lintel]

i heard w guy say he was at second sky 21 and got so jealous

that set is prob my favorite hes done

[slate crescent]

Ok so I’m def being parasocial af but I SWEAR there was a moment during the concert where Porter made eye contact with me and smiled

[rough sand]

NO FOR REAL

i thought he looked at me and i was like SOCIAL ANXIETY and looked away

[silver lintel]

i mean prob looking at the crowd

[rough sand]

i uwu

[slate crescent]

So me and Porter are now besties sorry guys you lost your chance

[ionic marlin]

YOOOO

[slate crescent]

Half the reason I wanna go tonight is to see if set list has any alterations

[silver lintel]

he should start throwing cups at people for year of the cup

[silver lintel]

i doubt it will

[slate crescent]

I high key thought he was gonna hold that giant cup up to his face like in the music video lmao

[silver lintel]

for anyone going tn is there a chance i could ask you to grab a paper heart for me

[lament tree]

Best weekend of my life tbh

[lament tree]

that's Kyle, they were in our group!

in the red flannel

Such sick photos

[rough sand]

oh i was talking about the guy who went with me!!! lol did i give a bracelet to him???

[silver lintel]

i honestly dont even know who else played but i am obsessed with that set

[lament tree]

Oh maybe not then! The person I'm talking about took that same photo where it says I Love You haha

and I'm not sure about the bracelet!

[lament tree]

I'm still bummed JYOCHO couldn't make it, their visa got denied I think

Not gonna lie I took a nap during Jon Hopkins but everyone else was great

[flat shale]

no but i was happy where i was

[wary jackal]

THAT WAS THE BEST SET HWAT

[slate crescent]

Imagine a Jacob collier x Porter set

[lament tree]

It was super hot and I was drunk okay lmao

[slate crescent]

Jacob plays Jacob chords while Porter sings in the nurture manipulator

[floral void]

Lol

[lament tree]

Jacob Collier was amazing though

[wary jackal]

@flat shale I'm craving canes again

[slate crescent]

SAME LOL

[wary jackal]

Go get canes and give me the leftovers

[rough sand]

mmmmm canessss

[slate crescent]

I want to try the chicken sandwich

[floral void]

I'm going to petition for Cane's in Maine now

[silver lintel]

that sounds like that type of lymphoma to me 😭

[sand shore]

Canes is the best

[silver lintel]

also i just looked at my poster and is eric just not doing the austin show or was that a printing error

[sand shore]

Austin is a festival

[silver lintel]

oh

[wary jackal]

For context I got canes yesterday
And I was like I can't finish this shit anyone want it
And rift half jokingly said yes

And I dead ass walked 20 mins to deliver that shit lmfao

[lament tree]

Y'all don't sleep on Eric's set btw

[rough sand]

@sacred steeple is supposed to be working and is instead making this pic into a poster

[silver lintel]

i still vote we throw rocks at the people who show up after his set but thats just me

[lament tree]

https://tenor.com/view/kenney-deathrow-judge-gif-18783827

I'll allow it

[slate crescent]

I HAVE GOTTEN WORK COVERAGE FOR TOMORROW

[lament tree]

LET'S GOOOOO

[rough sand]

W

[floral void]

YAYY

have fun

[silver lintel]

the back to back shows in diff cities still has me baffled

also does anyone know why boston is the only na location with 2 shows

[floral void]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lament tree]

it's because we deserve it tbh

jk idk

[hollow grail]

anyone wanna meet up at the matcha place today again !!

we couldnt make it yesterday bc of work so i wanted to see if anyone would go !!

craving matcha ice cream

[pearl elm]

omg yesss please!! going into the city early today :3

[hollow grail]

yes !!

[silver lintel]

i mean i am sure as shit not complaining about two shows but it seems strange for that to be only here

[floral void]

Just keep in mind there isn't much seating as we found out xD

[hollow grail]

from yesterday ^-^

[lament tree]

WAIT WHAT

[silver lintel]

how far would it be from the venue

[lament tree]

when/where

[silver lintel]

because i am walking there

[hollow grail]

last night >.<

[floral void]

Oh my god

[lament tree]

Now I need to hang out after the show tonight

[floral void]

I should have stayed a little longer xDD

[lament tree]

was he out for a while?

[hollow grail]

idk we were first in line and dipped after we spoke to potah

[lament tree]

How long after the show was it?

[rough sand]

I SHOULD HAVE STAYEDDDD

[silver lintel]

1230 is what someone said last night

so 1.5 hrs

[lament tree]

Oh woof nvm

[silver lintel]

little less

[floral void]

SAME AAA

[lament tree]

I can't stay that late lol

[floral void]

but I'm happy for everyone not jealous at all :))))

[silver lintel]

i might do it but like i have to be up at 9 + id kinda feel like a piece of shit bothering them

[pearl elm]

matcha place is about 5/10 minutes from the venue walking

[silver lintel]

do you have the name

[sacred steeple]

just a quick one gotta get back to work afm][asmf[]a

[pearl elm]

i'm just craving ice cream tbh we could always go somewhere else nearby too

Matcha Cafe Maiko!

[silver lintel]

its between my dorm and the venue so maybe

[sand shore]

PORTER HIRE THIS PERSON

[rough sand]

FFOR REAL HE JUST SPEEDRAN THAT IN A FEW MINUTES FOR FUN HAHA

[silver lintel]

was i the only person that was fully expecting ||language to be the one with unfold||

[rough sand]

I was too actually!!!

[silver lintel]

i was like waiting for it and was vaguely disappointed for a sec

the unfold bit to be added i mean

also like like 10 seconds of ||fss live edit|| were so crazy live

like thats not my favorite thing just to listen to at home but god damn

and like the entire worlds bit was SO loud

bones were shaking

[lament tree]

||There was a surprising lack of mashups||

[ember zealot]

I LITERALLY BEGAN SINGING IT

as it played

[lament tree]

I was most surprised by ||FSS Worlds Live Edit for a split second||

I got a video of it and I fucking screamed

[silver lintel]

same

[silver lintel]

i think because its the like premier tour for the album he wanted to keep it a bit simpler

the ||cheerleader and fss live blueballs|| were so sad

but the one like real mashup he did was great

[slate crescent]

It might be just to make more money. It’s a smaller venue in a less concert-y city so maybe by booking two nights they have a better chance to break even?

[lament tree]

Smaller venue yes but Boston isn't a less concert-y city

[shadow gorge]

Boston is a very concerty city

[lament tree]

MGM isn't even the only music venue just on that street lol

[silver lintel]

is it only used for music because it felt very much like a theater to me

[lament tree]

Yeah, it's a newer music venue

[slate crescent]

It’s less concerty than NYC

[lament tree]

but there's also House Of Blues and Fenway on that same road

[shadow gorge]

House of Blues, Roadrunner, Royale, TD Garden, Big Night Live, Brighton Music Hall, Orpheum... lots of shows and concerts

[lament tree]

and then Roadrunner, Royale, TD Garden, Big Night Live, Orpheum, Brighton Music Hall, etc.

[silver lintel]

nyc is also the biggest city in the country though

[lament tree]

Paradise Rock Club

[slate crescent]

I think I heard he didn’t go to Boston last tour?

[lament tree]

He did, Orpheum

[silver lintel]

someone said thry were at nurture live boston

[lament tree]

venue sucked ass

[rough sand]

the ceiling broke at the orpheum it was funny

[brazen wren]

I hated Orpheum so much

[silver lintel]

fucking what

[shadow gorge]

Porter also did an outdoors DJ set last year at Suffolk Downs for Breakaway Festival

[rough sand]

yeah a piece of the ceiling broke off and fell on stage

[silver lintel]

that has to be a building code violation or something

[floral void]

Is there video of that 😭

[terse barn]

trying to decided whether to pop a (perscribed) anti anxiety pill mid-way through my drive to boston . I'm always an anxious wreck for these things

[rough sand]

I dont have one sadly but im sure it’s out there

[terse barn]

the trade off is i would be a bit more drowsy

but it might still be a net positive

[floral void]

Id say it's a net positive

It's no fun to be anxious about stuff

[terse barn]

yea probs

ill bring it in my car and wing it i guess

[silver lintel]

i think if you can get into the venue you should be ok but cant be completely certain

once porter was like 25-30 mins in the energy in the crowd had drastically changed

[terse barn]

i would be fine once music starts playing. It's the walking to the venue, and waiting in line, and waiting on the floor etc etc

[floral void]

Ah

[terse barn]

especially if I actually dress a bit more fem like im hoping too

might say fuck it and boy mode

we'll see

[silver lintel]

i did not have to wait in any line at all apart from merch which i did immediately after the show and only took me like 5-10 mins

also idk where youre walking from but if its closer to me i might be able to walk with you

[rough lynx]

Merch line ~ 30 mins into Eric doa was like maybe 10 mins max

[silver lintel]

i went literally immediately after the show and only had a handful of people ahead of me

[slate crescent]

Who that I met yesterday is also going tn?

[silver lintel]

leaving during his set is fucked

[rough lynx]

Too smart for me 😭

[silver lintel]

??????

[rough lynx]

I didn't meet you yesterday but am also going tonight

[silver lintel]

i mean ig if youre on the floor itd be harder to do that

i wish i had gotten floor tickets for one of hte nights

[rough lynx]

Just saying I'm a bozo for not trying to go after the show lol

[silver lintel]

well were you on the floor

because like

that seems hard as fuck to get out of

[rough lynx]

Yes, I was

[silver lintel]

i have like no memory of picking where i would be for the concert tonight but apparently im on the 3rd floor

surely some weird air streams up near the roof will deliver me a paper heart

god damn someone already put it up

also that fucking intro was so cool

[rough sand]

There was a shit ton of confetti on the floor at the end last night you can totally grab some

[silver lintel]

oh just like wait for the floor to empty

[rough sand]

yeah just go down as youre leaving! my friend was 2nd floor i think and he came down aftwr to say hi to me

[astral dawn]

Lmao I have a video of Porter saying the ceiling fell while he was still auto tuned 😭

I don’t have a video of the chunk falling but I remember seeing it womp womp

[astral dawn]

Meeeee

[slate crescent]

Nice

Does anyone want to meetup again before the show

[silver lintel]

some people earlier were saying they might be going to a matcha place

[astral dawn]

I can try :0

[sand shore]

Yeah maybe they shouldn’t have booked an EDM show at that 172-year old theater

[silver lintel]

at the same time it may be comical if goodbye to a world tore the fucking venue apart

[floral void]

HAHA

[silver lintel]

its not even just the name that song has the volume to do it

[rough sand]

boston is so cool we literally bring the house down <3

[silver lintel]

i couldnt tell during the show if some sound was my ears ringing or the music 💀

[sand shore]

https://youtu.be/3Z2LhwMprLQ?si=pYPk9FI5q9b9-fN-

[tulip wren]

yooo id love to meet up somewhere

[silver lintel]

if i could like search in this channel which i cant id ping thr people from earlier

[tulip wren]

im taking the train in now and will land in south station at 2:30 to meet up with my friend

[silver lintel]

technology acquired (this app sucks on mobile)

[tulip wren]

sucks on desktop too LOL

[silver lintel]

i found it

[floral void]

I love discord but I also hate discord

[silver lintel]

couple minutes walk from the venue

[floral void]

[silver lintel]

only thing is i dont think a time was said ever

[floral void]

Last night we did 5ish

Maybe that would work again this night unless people want to go really early

[rough sand]

we were the guinea pigs to see how early people would line up and i feel like it would only get earlier based on what we told them djdjfmfngn

[tulip wren]

im gonna try to get in line at 5 tbh

i rlly wanna get to the merch table

tho i gotta find a liquor store first lmfao

[rough sand]

If you go at 5 you should get a good spot i think

[tulip wren]

pog

[astral dawn]

I’m down for this (this time I won’t be late 🥲🙏)

[tulip wren]

ill probably head over at 4 or something

maybe get in line at 5:30 so i can hang w some cool peeps :3

i dont rlly go out much so its really cool to get out and meet some awesome people at a concert im excited to go to

[pearl elm]

meetup for shot o clock tonight

[astral dawn]

Hell yeah!!

[tulip wren]

oooo that looks yummy n fruity

does anybody know of a better bathroom than the south station bathroom 😭

[floral void]

Valid it was so nasty

I wish I knew

[tulip wren]

ive gone before so i may have to cope

its infinitely better than the north station bathrooms...

[lament tree]

Why am I so anxious about staying after the show tonight and potentially having the opportunity to meet Porter lmao

really wish I stayed last night

[tulip wren]

awww man i never even thought of that

ughhhhh i wish i couldddd

[lament tree]

I'm gonna try my best, but I don't know if I can

fingers crossed though

[tulip wren]

are you taking the commuter at all?

[slate crescent]

Do we want to try some other cafe this time? Matcha maiko was pretty small

[lament tree]

Nah we're getting driven in, long story. So it ultimately comes down to whether or not our ride is cool with waiting.

[tulip wren]

hmmm im down with whatever tbh, preferably nothing crazy expensive but ik theres no choice w boston 😭

i guess it depends tho on how many people are joining

[tulip wren]

i hope they are!

im soooo excited aaaaaa

[silver lintel]

i might do that

[slate crescent]

Fuck yeah I bought another ticket lol

Floor again

[floral void]

Have fun!

Are you going to try to get the rail

[slate crescent]

If I can, highly unlikely

[floral void]

Fair

[slate crescent]

Rail was pretty much only vip

Which is fine

There were some people I saw at the rail tho who literally stood still the whole show and didn’t jump or anything I was like bro😭 are you having fun

Yo can I meet up with you

I might get fast lane this time

[silver lintel]

chat is there a way to like change my ticket because i kinda wanna be on the floor

[slate crescent]

I’m not sure

You might be able to sell it and buy another

[marble wyvern]

Yeah I saw floor tickets going for $30 or less on resale sites

[slate crescent]

A lot of those are bulk purchase tho

Like 4 tix for $50

I looked on tickpick for 1 floor ticket and it was $200

[silver lintel]

what the fuck

[rough lynx]

Yeah some dude behind me said he got tickets for $10 each I think, but makes sense that they'd be for bulk. Also potentially harder to do Friday since it sounds like there's more tickets sold

[silver lintel]

floor ticks 110 via ticketmaster how the fuck was someone trying to resell for 200

[slate crescent]

No clue lol

[tough quartz]

OMG I REMEMBER THAT

[slate crescent]

Prolly some scalper who put it there for literal 10 minutes before start buys

[silver lintel]

i mean i think the people that are that dedicated to scamming the shit out of people use bots

visual of all time

[floral void]

Visual of all time

[rough sand]

THATS YOU!!!

[silver lintel]

they paying you royalties

[floral void]

My split second of fame 🔥

[silver lintel]

uh i think mostly lyric video

also the fucking "wanna play wonderwall" after someone like fainting was crazy

[slate crescent]

Looks like I can’t get fast lane upgrade day of

[pine barn]

I have 3 tickets to the show tonight I got off StubHub when they were cheap. Due to some last minute BS my friend who was driving couldn't go so we're now planning to go to tomorrow's show in NY. Anyone want them pls DM and name your price :/

[slate crescent]

Save me a spot lol

[silver lintel]

twink-182 is crazy

[pine barn]

🔥

[floral void]

Lyric vid

[silver lintel]

was there nothing else

i dont really remember

some people said 5 at a matcha place but then also said getting in line super fucking early so idk

[slate crescent]

BET

[silver lintel]

if im going to do any meet im not standing in line

[rugged kindle]

I’d love to meet some of y’all but my friend is taking me around to see some stuff since I’m not from around here so chances are during or after the show is the only time I could!

[silver lintel]

so are we like planning to do something or no

[tulip wren]

it seems like everybody has different plans

[silver lintel]

idk i didnt seem like msot people gave like actual solid responses

just kinda vaguely maybe

[heavy swift]

are there 2 GA lines?

[silver lintel]

there were like barriers on both sides of the entrance

i didnt see any line though i just walked in

like 740 maybe

[slate crescent]

Yes

Middle and outer lines are ga, line nearest the building is VIP I believe

[tulip wren]

im having quite a rough day so a meetup is probably out of the question for me

unfortunately

but perhaps we can meet in line

[silver lintel]

might be down to do that

i cried like 5 times

[slate crescent]

I’ll be there

[tulip wren]

ahh ill be ok its just one of those days where nothing goes right

i kinda wanna buy different tickets but i wont be able to sell the tickets i already bought fast enough

[silver lintel]

easier to love you (both times), everything to me, wind tempos, trying to feel alive

and like when i sat down in the venue

[tulip wren]

so i kinda just wanna give them to someone but i dont know who 😭

[slate crescent]

I want mirror :[

[silver lintel]

that one part of mirror would go stupid live

[tulip wren]

yeah! im already in Boston its just everything leading up has sucked

[astral dawn]

I’ll be there B) one of my roomies will also be tagging along

[slate crescent]

I know exactly which part you’re talking about lol

[silver lintel]

yeah everyone does

its like

that part

i know ill never get to hear it but the nurture live intro is something i wish i couldve seen live

also 10 min wind tempos

[astral dawn]

If anyone’s going to the cafe imma be there early, just look for someone in a cheerleader outfit lol

[silver lintel]

were you there last night because i think i saw like 3 cheerleaders

[astral dawn]

Yes HAHA

[silver lintel]

did you buy merch after the show because one was like a couple people ahead of me

[astral dawn]

Nah I did it at the beginning

[tulip wren]

im def getting merch first thing

[astral dawn]

I was probably one of the shorter cheerleaders there

[silver lintel]

if youre not planning to get in line super fucking early id say prob wait

[tulip wren]

we're trying to get there at 5:30

[silver lintel]

oh fuck

what

[tulip wren]

but we might end up getting there at 6

cus we wanna grab some alcohol

[silver lintel]

at the fucking door they said are youdrinking and when i said no they had to draw on both my hands

like i was assuming it was just wristband for alcohol but ig not

[tulip wren]

ughh hopefully it washes off easily

[silver lintel]

i dont particularly care if it washes off

my right hand is basically entirely faded

[tulip wren]

ill say yes for the sake of it but i doubt im gonna be paying $23 for one drink

just getting some vodka nips from a liquor store and that should be enough

[silver lintel]

you dont have to pay if they dont know you take it

[tulip wren]

do they do bag checks?

[silver lintel]

i didnt have a bag but they made me empty my water bottle

[tulip wren]

ughhhhh

[pearl elm]

no you just walk thru as long as nothing goes off

[tulip wren]

ok cool

[silver lintel]

yeah

[tulip wren]

cus i wanted to see if i could sneak a nips in

lmfao

[pearl elm]

yeah you could

i'll be doing the same

[tulip wren]

pog

[silver lintel]

i think it was maybe because people might try to switch a wristband

[tulip wren]

ayyyy lets gooooooo

[silver lintel]

walking home drunk at night sounds like maybe not the best idea to me

but like do what you want ig

[astral dawn]

I’m at the matcha place rn and there’s like no seats atm just fair warning

[silver lintel]

is there any seating outside or nearby

[astral dawn]

There’s a few that keep opening up every now and then but other than that, not really

I’m also willing to give up my seat if you need to sit lol

[silver lintel]

is there anything like near the shop that might have seating

[astral dawn]

Benches every now and then, other than that just restaurants n stuff

The fens are also not too far of a walk from the venue which provides more organic seating like stone walls 💀

[tulip wren]

FUCK ARE U IN MERCH LINE RN?

[silver lintel]

its already up the stairs

literally instantly once ga got opened

[stray goblet]

Is the line long

To the merch line

[silver lintel]

uh it was getting longer when i walked in

[heavy swift]

im on the barricade 😎

[silver lintel]

im im the theater now

[silver lintel]

im on the rail.... of the 3rd floor

[stray goblet]

Is anything happening or is everyone just waitin now

[silver lintel]

nothing really

just people getting merch and id assume drinks

[stray goblet]

Cause I’m considering getting merch > get food > then come back to the theater

[silver lintel]

uh

you may not have time for that

[rugged kindle]

Merch line long but moving steadily

[stray goblet]

I was thinking that

[silver lintel]

id assume its up to like 15-20 mins by now no ?

[rugged kindle]

Idk exactly cuz I got in line maybe like 7 min ago? On the third floor and now I’m on the 2nd

[stray goblet]

Wait which floor is the merch in

[silver lintel]

uh yeah it took probably like 5 mins for me last night when it was not even to the base of the stairs

[silver lintel]

ground

[silver lintel]

yeah youre gonna have to pick food or merch @stray goblet

if you get out the theater quick after the show you can get merch easy

[stray goblet]

Eh I’ll probably get food after

That’s what I do most of the time anyway when I come to Boston

[silver lintel]

idk personally id rather do the shorter line after the show but up to you

[stray goblet]

I have like

Huge fomo mindset

Which is why I usually get merch before or during intermission

[silver lintel]

i have no idea what the line looked like during intermission but it was ~20 mins intermission

YOO THEYRE PLAYING GONNA BE GOOD

[static stirrup]

[stray goblet]

Someone should make a playlist of the pre show songs

||transitions directly into the show||

[open flower]

[static stirrup]

a bunch of songs that have “smile” in their names

[open flower]

[thorn aurora]

Merch line indeed takes around 15-20 minutes from the top

[pale jasper]

OH SHIT THATS ME

[silver lintel]

||bunch of songs where they said "smile" and then one of them started to play again and turned into knock||

[wicked spade]

the pre show playlist is actually so good

[open flower]
