🇺🇸 Newark (November 14-15, 2022)

[misty elbow]

.

🇺🇸 Newark (November 14-15, 2022)

[gleaming cosmos]

Anyone else planning to come here? I am for sure. Attending both event days or just one and why?

[split bison]

I'm definitely going

[glass glade]

i'm probably going to one of the days 👀

[native cosmos]

gonna try for both

cause who knows when they'll come back

🧍‍♂️

[gleaming cosmos]

Question is it worth doing two day concerts? Not sure if what they perform is same for both days. Cuz I might have to adjust my hotel stay a day longer if I were to do two days. Is it worth two days if it’s same performances??

[blazing tapir]

Newark

Is in New Jersey?

[native cosmos]

i guess it depends on how much you really like blackpink

[native cosmos]

newark new jersey yeah

[blazing tapir]

Oooo oki

gotta take a train there oh well

[quick fern]

Ill try to cinvinve my parents to lemme go did they release what exact location yet

[tepid lantern]

Most performers try to do something different show to show. Maybe some Blinks here can tell us if BP changed anything between shows on a previous tour.
If you're a big Blink and you can go to both, even if it's the same show, you'll enjoy it. I've never heard fans say it wasn't worth it to see their group multiple times

[native cosmos]

the setlist was the same for both days for newark

went last tour

technically the difference was dua lipa went to day 1 and not day 2

😭

[tepid lantern]

🤷‍♂️

well this time they actually have more than a concert's worth of songs

[blazing tapir]

Do we gotta pay tickets for day 2

[tepid lantern]

Of course, but I’m including that in if you can

[wary stone]

Don't ask when the girls will go to a city that's less than 100 miles from the NYC Metro Area

Because I have to admit that Newark's popularity in the genre is more than Philly

[zealous creek]

90 miles away from my place...

I'm gonna have to see the ticket price lol (X + ~$12 gas)

[quick fern]

Same 80 miles from my house

90 minute drive

[rain plank]

Does anyone know the ticket prices the last time they were in Newark?

[native cosmos]

soundcheck was 250

think the cheapest was like 60-70

[static zinc]

heres what I found!

this is from the 2019 tour

[native cosmos]

nice thank you

[rain plank]

Thanks for that!

[rancid shale]

I cant wait for this! Im literally gonna cry when i see them up that stage

[zealous creek]

$60 honestly sounds reasonable

[wraith ether]

me

I live In NJ

[split bison]

Is weverse membership really necessary to get priority for tickets

[wraith ether]

I think soo I wana do it

Im gonna do it cus I really wanna get good seats

[tired thorn]

Can someone please explain the weverse thing to me and does anyone know when they go on sale??

[wraith ether]

No

YG didnt anncoune it yet

Once he does then They will probably give u steps on how to do it

[quick fern]

im just hoping my parents will let me go

i just need decent seats im trying to not spend like more then 350 dollars per person

idk

[valid hornet]

was GA the closest area to the stage?

[static zinc]

yes! its pit

[valid hornet]

how big was the pit? I guess in terms of number of rows of people

[static zinc]

im not sure... i searched up the capacity of the prudential center and it was 19,500

im guessing it isn't that big

[valid hornet]

each concert can make the pit whatever size they want so I guess it doesn't matter really

[split bison]

Get a weverse acct, apply for blackpink membership and then when yg makes an announcement they'll probably drop a link on weverse to apply for pre-sales

But I'm hearing that weverse pre-sales perk might just apply to concerts in korea

I got an acct and BP membership just In case

[wraith ether]

yea

[static zinc]

sooooo excited, saw them last time they were at prudential center, great venue for them

[tired thorn]

I wish the also had a New York or Philly date since they are so popular

[static zinc]

yeah, theyve never done either

and philly gets no kpop ever

[zealous creek]

Why would they go to philly

Ghetto asf

[quick fern]

No not philly

Philly not good choice

I woild say

[wraith ether]

yea and Flordia

[hot bridge]

why can’t they go to metlife

it’s sm bigger

[glass glade]

yes

you get access to buy the tickets a day before

it helped a lot for other concerts

[hot bridge]

is it guaranteed that i’d get tickets if i buy membership?

[glass glade]

nope but it gives u a pretty good chance

[static zinc]

newark is too 😭

[static zinc]

FR!!

[hot bridge]

PLUS it’s closer to nyc i think

[wary stone]

I'm going against your opinions because why?

Philly and the NYC area are decent but only Brave Girls and MONSTA X most notably hinted at K-pop concerts in Philadelphia regardless of scale

The iHeartRadio Jingle Ball in December 2021 and December 2019 had featured MONSTA X playing in Philly

I mentioned that several times in #blackpink-chat messaging history from POV

[dull tulip]

MANIFESTING!!

[wraith ether]

NO FR i live 15 minutes away from that

[hot bridge]

THATS SO CLOSE

I LIVE 25 MIN AWAY

[wraith ether]

OMG REALLY WOWW

LOL WE ARE CLOSE

[fluid shell]

Yes for ny birthday yhey be coming best present ever

[gleaming cosmos]

hey guys is there any idea which concert venue the Newark will be at? I see prudential center but not sure if that's a guaranteed location they are going to?

[wraith ether]

Yes

Its the prudential center pretty sure

[wary stone]

Man, I wished they’d visit Yankee Stadium or Citi Field

Or Citizens Bank Park

https://tenor.com/view/fireworks-field-gif-4336479

41 Seaver Way.

https://tenor.com/view/seranthony-mlb-phillies-gif-26408017

[zealous creek]

i might actually go now that they have plenty of songs

[hot bridge]

citi field would’ve been so much more convenient for me

[wraith ether]

Omg yea

Yankee stadium is so big

[cinder condor]

Gotta see if I can make it that day

[wary stone]

I've got plenty of BLACKPINK content all from Madison Square Garden or the Hoboken terminal

They're close to Newark

I felt like they should have considered Philadelphia (specifically the Wells Fargo Center)

[glass glade]

there's no point in complaining now

they're not going to philadelphia 🤷‍♀️just accept it

[hot bridge]

is anyone coming from nyc?

[blazing tapir]

Is the tickets here yet?

[blazing tapir]

Yes

[hot bridge]

not yet

idk when they’ll go on sale

[gleaming cosmos]

I’m coming from NYC since I’ll be attending Itzy the day prior.

[hot bridge]

oh so you don’t live in nyc 😭

[gleaming cosmos]

No announcements yet for ticket sales. Let’s just wait until they release more info.

[hot bridge]

oh wait i’m dumb

i thought you were the person i replied to for a second 😭

[gleaming cosmos]

No sadly. But I’ll be there for like 6 days

[hot bridge]

[gleaming cosmos]

You from NY? What’s there to recommend in ktown?

[hot bridge]

[hot bridge]

the kpop store is called koryo bookstore

[gleaming cosmos]

I’ll be staying in Leo house so I’ll be close to Hulu theatre for Itzy concert.

[hot bridge]

k town isn’t close to that area

[gleaming cosmos]

I’m a guy so not sure what beauty stores might interest me lol. But I don’t mind looking young lol

[hot bridge]

oh i meant like skincare stuff 😭

but anyway look for koryo bookstore they have kpop merch

and there’s a store called “the face shop” nearby it has beauty products + bts merch

and the food there is so good there’s a food court called food gallery 32

it’s kind of on the pricey end tho be aware

[gleaming cosmos]

Yikes I don’t like homework’s. Lol. Good thing I’m so done with school ever. 🙂

[wraith ether]

LOL

LUCKY

Thats good thoughh

school is stressing

[gleaming cosmos]

I believe that. What’s your highest education level grade?

[gleaming cosmos]

How does one wanna live in NY? What kind of salary do you need to live in the area?

[quick fern]

but like ny minimum wage is higher than like other place

[wraith ether]

I am going into 11th grade this year!

[quick fern]

im going into 10 but yeah 11 is like the most stressful i heard

so gl

[wraith ether]

yeaa im not ready at all😭

[wraith ether]

thank you!!

10th grade was easy, u get a lil more work but its pretty okay

i hated geometry though

its pretty hard

but u got it, just ask for help if u rlly need it

[glass glade]

the prudential center is only 30 minutes away from me damn

[wraith ether]

yes

do u think the concert will start at 8?

[glass glade]

i don't really know i've never been to a concert before

how long do you think it'll last? like a couple of hours?

[wraith ether]

yea like 2-3

since they will play their old songs/albums and solos

[glass glade]

then i don't think it'll start at 8 i feel like that's too late

probably like 6-7 maybe

[wraith ether]

yea maybe

bc in the 2019 tour they started at 8

hopefully its 6-7

cus imma have school sadly

[glass glade]

oh dang that's kinda late

[glass glade]

me too me too

how many hours early do you think ur gonna go

[quick fern]

i did geometry lol im doing precalc and trig

wbu

[quick fern]

yeah prob at like 7 and like 2 hours long

[hot bridge]

umm idk i’m a minor 😭

[hot bridge]

11 wasn’t so bad imo

they made it easy for me only cuz we were transitioning from the pandemic

i’m going into 12 grade this year btw

[hot bridge]

I HATE GEOMETRY SO MUCH

[wraith ether]

IKR

[wraith ether]

BROOO SAMEEE OMG

[wraith ether]

[gleaming cosmos]

Hehe just wait till you get to college. I remember doing like 60+ page essays in my day. 🙂

[wraith ether]

HUH

😭😭😭😭😭

Noooooo

[rain plank]

60 page essays? I never needed to write anything past 15 pages in college. O_o

[gleaming cosmos]

Oh for real? Your lucky. What was your degree in? Mine is Management Information Systems

[rain plank]

Economics. I think the most I wrote was probably 15-20 pages.

[gleaming cosmos]

I had to do a capstone my last year of everything I learned my whole college career Lol.

[rain plank]

Ooof..that doesn't sound fun at all lol.

[wraith ether]

how do u even come up with words for 15-20 pages???? i only did 5 pages for highschool😭😭😭😭 thats crazy

[hot bridge]

tf…

[hot bridge]

Need me some BLACKPINK in Philly/Camden but on my Instagram, admitted it

Capacity overall of 25,488 with 7,000 indoors... medium sized

[gleaming cosmos]

Of course I graduated college. Graduated back in 2015.

[wraith ether]

Omg wow!

[static zinc]

neither did i but im from nj so its a given lmao

im not sure... but i think theres a website with their food vendors?

[gleaming cosmos]

Are there any good clothing stores in NY? And specifically Asian clothing?

[wraith ether]

Yea my friend went to a asian clothing store and got this cute sweater

[zealous creek]

bro $20+ for avocado and rice? lol

at least you got shrimp tempura roll

[wraith ether]

yes

LOL yea its so good!!

[zealous creek]

was that ayce?

[wraith ether]

nope it was gallery 32

[hot bridge]

idk about asian clothing but my favorite store is h&m😭

but you can find h&m anywhere

[hot bridge]

omg you’re so much older than me 😭

[wraith ether]

LOL

[quick fern]

I hope ticket dont seel out in like 10 minutes

[wraith ether]

LOL

I wanna see when the tickets go out soon, hopefully they will give us something soon

[wary stone]

Like I said, why not for them to go to the Camden/Philly waterfront at the Delaware River

Capacity for warmer months can expand to 25,488 at the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion (near the 76ers training facility)

And for the South Philadelphia Sports Complex venues, it's three times as large

[static zinc]

???

we were talking about a food festival?? 😭

[rain plank]

Hopefully I can grab some tickets as well with the Blink membership.

[wraith ether]

Yeaaa

[wary stone]

There's public transit if you are willing to risk extra money for the Newark-Philadelphia leg of the tour

NJ Transit bus and rail routes (look at the northeastern quadrant of the map; that's the spot

I would have liked to see Philadelphia being added so that the Liberty Tower could be lit up in BLACKPINK's colors

I would have also liked to see BLACKPINK perform at the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion or the SPSC Complex

[rain plank]

I live in NY so getting to NJ shouldn't be too difficult. I wish they had show in NYC though to make things easier.

[wraith ether]

Yea thats true

Like madison square garden

[hot bridge]

oh shit i should be thinking about how i’m gonna get there

does anyone know how i can get there from manhattan? i have a car but i won’t be able to use it on the day of the concerts

ubers is gonna be really expensive

[rain plank]

You should worry about that AFTER and if you get tickets lol.

[wraith ether]

wait guys

what does this mean

ohhh wait

i think they are lighting up something

[quick fern]

Idk tbh

[glass glade]

idkkk

ah it means these r gonna turn pink

[quick fern]

So pretty

[quick fern]

Train or bus cheapest way

Or subway

[wraith ether]

Thats so coool

Yeaa

[hot bridge]

yea

i can’t even go 😭

[wary stone]

The American Dream mall will turn pink?

The one in East Rutherford

I wished the Philadelphia Liberty Tower did the same

[glass glade]

no? the brooklyn bridge 💀

[wary stone]

Philadelphia’s towers would have been included

Or their landmark locations, including 30th Street Station

So that the Philly and NYC areas do the same thing

[glass glade]

bro not everything’s about philadelphia

notice how they only did popular cities from each country lmfao

[hot bridge]

is anyone going to brooklyn bridge tmrw?

[hot bridge]

why do u always talk about philadelphia 😭

[rain plank]

I might take a trip to the Brooklyn Bridge since I'm close by anyways. 🙂

[hot bridge]

i’m gonna try to go too but idk if i can

[quick fern]

No im in pa

I wish i could live in ny

[wraith ether]

Oh really?

[wary stone]

Yes

It's noted as the largest city by population in the state of Pennsylvania

And some radio stations in the city know them on social media and radio plays

[rain plank]

Yes but you can't even compare Philly to NY. You guys are like the ugly stepchild that no one knew about in comparison.

[glass glade]

LMFAO

[wraith ether]

Omg wow

[hot bridge]

is the bridge gonna be crowded

i think im gonna go by car

[wraith ether]

yes

[hot bridge]

bruh 😭

[glass glade]

💀 good luck

[hot bridge]

thanks 😭

i think ill be fine cuz i already live in manhattan

idk if i should go by subway or car cuz subway fares are annoying

but i dont rlly wanan be in my car either

[hard trout]

If I had money, I would go because it’s in my state-

[wary stone]

I wished the Benjamin Franklin Bridge (I-676/US 30) or the Walt Whitman Bridge (I-76) were lit up with BLACKPINK's colors

[hot bridge]

my dad would be driving me

[hot bridge]

ooo

where in ny do u live?

[wraith ether]

maybe the subway

[hard trout]

Ooooo!

[rain plank]

Good thing I'm like a 10-15 minute walk away from the bridge. 🙂

[hot bridge]

i have literally never heard of those bridges 😭

[hard trout]

I don’t live in ny lol

[wraith ether]

LUCKY

[hard trout]

[wary stone]

Trenton (the state's capital)?

[rain plank]

I'm in Chinatown in Manhattan lol.

[wary stone]

"Trenton makes, the world takes."

[hot bridge]

OOO

I live in the upper west side

we're rlly close 😋

[hard trout]

Then way more bc I’m not even close to Trenton (maybe 30/40 from Trenton tbh. I think more 70 to newark now that I’m thinking about it)

Yh not 30/40. Not even close

[hot bridge]

newark is like a little more than half an hour away from me

[hard trout]

Ooo

[hot bridge]

i wish they came to metlife its sm closer to me

[hard trout]

Omg yh

They’re going to prudential I’m guessing

[rain plank]

I wish they did Madison Square Garden.

[hot bridge]

yup

[hot bridge]

its prob smaller than prudential tho

[wary stone]

I wished they'd come to the South Philadelphia Sports Complex (Wells Fargo Center most likely) or the Freedom Mortgage Pavilion in Camden (near Battleship New Jersey 62)

[hot bridge]

is this guy a troll

[hard trout]

Madison square garden is like, huge

[wraith ether]

LOL

[hard trout]

I think

[wraith ether]

Yea its rlly huge

[hard trout]

I’ve never been

[wraith ether]

OHH

[hard trout]

[rain plank]

Prudential Center is where the NJ Devils play.

[wraith ether]

Ahh ok

[hard trout]

Ye

[rain plank]

I was a Devils fan back in the day when Brodeur played for them.

[wraith ether]

ooo

[hard trout]

Oh yes

My brother met some canucks players (his favorite team lol)

I wish they played on my bday

[glass glade]

idk LMFAO

[hard trout]

The late October dates are right after my birthday lol

[wary stone]

I'm sure MONSTA X were the only K-pop acts to even make a South Philadelphia Sports Complex concert appearance (in contrast to Newark-New York)

But other than that, MetLife Stadium would have been a good choice

[rain plank]

the November dates in NJ are the same week as Anime NYC. Just take all my monies.. >.>

[hot bridge]

we get it u live in philadelphia 😭

[hard trout]

Like BTS, Billie Eilish, txt, en-, etc

[wraith ether]

No bc BP tickets are gonna get sold out in less than 5 minutes

[hot bridge]

I wanted to see bts so badly

[hard trout]

Especially BTS

[wraith ether]

Which is why im getting presale

[wraith ether]

Omg yes

[hard trout]

Plus we can’t get tickets anyway

[hot bridge]

THATS WHAT IM SCARED OF CUZ MY PARENTS ARE BUYING TICKETS

[wraith ether]

YEA EXACTLY

[rain plank]

I don't really care about BTS personally..I'm just there for BlackPink and Jisoo lol.

[wraith ether]

LOL

[hard trout]

Maybe en- but she doesn’t know anything about en- lol. I’m getting her into BTS

[hot bridge]

[glass glade]

i hope they sell send-off tickets this time

[hot bridge]

[hard trout]

I-

I want vip so bad

[hot bridge]

and theyre gonna help me pay cuz itll be a birthday gift hopefully

[hard trout]

do you get to meet them with VIP or is it just closer up towards the stage??

[glass glade]

nah i don't think youget to meet them

[wraith ether]

im pretty sure u meet them

[glass glade]

if they release a send-off package you get to be really close and see them go in their cars at the end of the concert

[wraith ether]

and u can give them gifts

[glass glade]

yea that's send off

but idk if theyl'l do it this time

cause of covid and stuff

[hot bridge]

HUH

i wanna get the best tickets possible, i alr got the membership so i'm hoping ican get vip tickets earlier

[hot bridge]

i dont think i want vip

[rain plank]

[hot bridge]

[rain plank]

[wraith ether]

PEOPLE DO THAT

LOL

[wraith ether]

Yea, I wanna get the shirt that says 2022 Bornpink Tour with all the dates on the back

[wary stone]

I might as well check the Eagles and Flyers schedules for Philadelphia

And what would have happened if they considered the City of Brotherly Love

These would have been the most likely points of concerns though

[hot bridge]

i hope you dont have to camp

[rain plank]

I can't camp either way. I have work so it's impossible for me..lol.

[hot bridge]

lmao 😭

[hot bridge]

please stop

[zealous creek]

What's with you and your obsession with venues??

[wraith ether]

😭

[quick fern]

1 hour 30 from me newark

[wraith ether]

Omg wow

[glass glade]

you need to calm down fr

philadelphia is irrelevant

[hot bridge]

fr

[wraith ether]

i hope the tickets are

good prices

[hot bridge]

me too i hope i dont have to pay more than $200

for a decent seat

[wraith ether]

yea

i just wanna be close to the stage

[zealous creek]

blackpink concert price is ridiculous

or is that generally how kpop is?

no shot im paying more than $200 for a VIP ticket on a mid level group

[split bison]

Mid level group?

[turbid ridge]

hoooooly

[glass glade]

wdym a mid level group 😭 they’re practically the most famous girl group there is rn

i feel like blackpink and BTS have definitely outgrown the titles of just “a kpop group”

[hot bridge]

they’re one of the big 3 wtf💀

[rain plank]

Someone kick that person out for callin BlackPink mid level..🤦‍♂️

[hot bridge]

fr💀

i can’t go to the blackpink bridge 😭😭

is it only gonna be lit up tomorrow night?? or will it still be there by friday?

[unique copper]

i think only tommorow

im going to brooklyn bridge to see it

[unique copper]

ikr like i have school on monday and tuesday 😭

[hot bridge]

shit 💀

not even friday??

[hot bridge]

same 😞

[rain plank]

I will probably go tmr too

Its only one night so might as well.

[hot bridge]

make sure y’all send pics

[unique copper]

bet

ofc

[glass glade]

i wonder how it'll be like, will you be able to stop or like you'll just drive across the bridge like normal lmao

[split bison]

You can walk across the Brooklyn Bridge... Take your time that way

[unique copper]

im probably gonna watch from a far

idk how long the lights are gonna be on for

probably like half an hour

[hot bridge]

I thought they were gonna be there all night

[glass glade]

oh nah i ain't walking i'm not a new yorker i'm like 45 minutes away LMFAO

[wraith ether]

LOL

[static zinc]

For the Brooklyn Bridge event tonight, do we know which side of the Bridge the event will be?

[hot bridge]

most probably manhattan

i don’t think there’s a specific area where they’ll hold the event it’s just a matter of where you go to see the bridge i guess

manhattan will be more crowded for sure

[static zinc]

In this regard, YG said, "We also planned a certification event for visiting each landmark where the Light Up The Pink campaign is held," adding, "We hope it will be a festival for not only fans who love BLACKPINK but also everyone."

From that message I thought maybe theyre doing like an event for photocards or something lol

[hot bridge]

oh really 💀

i didn’t know

[wraith ether]

LOL

[split bison]

Just walk the whole bridge to be sure

[hot bridge]

it takes a long time to walk across the whole thing tho💀

if you have access to your own car you should drive thru it while it’s lit up pink

[hoary herald]

hey

[gleaming cosmos]

Oh it’s long to walk the bridge? From pictures it looks short. And how long is it?

[hot bridge]

i heard it’s around an hour

maybe less if you walk fast

[split bison]

I don't see a pink bridge lol

[rain plank]

Me neither. They fooled us all..

[glass glade]

💀

[split bison]

Where's the pink lights lol

[unique copper]

exactly

i couldn’t go 😭

[split bison]

Yea nothing. Still pretty sight though

[hot bridge]

💀

seriously

why are the lights white

im kinda glad i didnt go now

[split bison]

I've been here for half an hr no pink lights

[hot bridge]

[round mango]

[glass glade]

[wary stone]

https://vxtwitter.com/ChaelisaNews/status/1560428892606824448?t=cqn4ZZ22XwRzAuYNNsl_Ag&s=19

If only MetLife Stadium did that

Or the American Dream mall

[glass glade]

why are you always complaining about the locations they choose for events

genuinely it’s so annoying when you say that shit, just celebrate the event and that’s all you need to say lmfao

[hot bridge]

bruh stop 😭

[hoary herald]

where the hell are u

sorry i thought u went on the bridge

[split bison]

I was on the bridge

Maybe I was on the wrong side of the bridge idk

[static zinc]

cant wait for presale details...

[wary stone]

I'm broke to go to Newark

For real.

[gleaming cosmos]

Start saving now.. wish they post the prices already so i can plan accordingly lol

[wary stone]

My mom strict... so I might as well hold off on any of that

But okay then

[zealous creek]

Can't u just take light transit and connect into Amtrak?

[wary stone]

Yes but that’s extra 💰 bucks

NJ Transit/Amtrak that is

No SEPTA (at all, due to the lack of Philadelphia showing)

[zealous creek]

Yes if you really wanna do it

Get the cheapest ticket possible, $36 for Amtrak roundtrip

NJ transit ~$5

[hot bridge]

how can i get there from manhattan?

[zealous creek]

find your way to the new york penn station lol

[hot bridge]

yeah but do any of the trains go there or anything 😭

[zealous creek]

yeah im pretty sure u can take amtrak from there

pretty easy route

problem is getting to penn station

[hot bridge]

oh ik how to get to penn station

[gleaming cosmos]

I got a round trip ticket from VA to NY on amtrak for about 66 bucks purchased a month ago.

Then from there hop the Moynihan train station to the NJ transit to get to the BP venue.

[wraith ether]

i mean driving is one way

[hot bridge]

[wraith ether]

[hot bridge]

[hot bridge]

💀

i hope they do cuz i plan on moving out for college

[wraith ether]

yeaa

i mean its just for a one night concert

they have to say yes

[hot bridge]

i think my parents might have to drive me no matter what im not sure

OH I HAVE A QUESTION

WHICH DAYS ARE YALL BUYING TICKETS FOR

im going to have to go on tuesday maybe

[glass glade]

i think monday, maybe both honestly

hope i get VIP tickets

[rain plank]

I'm aiming for Monday but either day is fine too.

[wraith ether]

tes

[wraith ether]

Monday

😄

[hot bridge]

i really hope you all get tickets

[night imp]

Wait where can you get the tickets I’m planning on going and saving up 😭

[hot bridge]

ticketmaster but they didn’t release them yet

[night imp]

ooh

does anyone here use gametime to buy tickets idk if I can trust the app yet

[hot bridge]

what’s gametime?

is it another website?

[wraith ether]

i thought it was ticketmaster

[hot bridge]

it is ticketmaster

[night imp]

it’s also an app where you can buy tickets

but the tickets prices are a bit less expensive

that’s why idk if I can trust and if anyone uses the app

[wraith ether]

ahhh ok

[gleaming cosmos]

I still wouldn’t trust it as its not the official ticket sales contracted between the management and their ticketing company.

[night imp]

Ohh okay ty!

[glass glade]

saw this in NY today

[hot bridge]

WHERE IN NY IS THIS

[glass glade]

ERRR ITS LIKE NEAR CHINATOWN

[hot bridge]

OOO OK

[rain plank]

thats in soho....its near the subway station on broadway-lafayette.

[glass glade]

oh 💀

[split bison]

That building not too far from Katz deli

[hot bridge]

i dont go to lower manhattan that often 😭

[wraith ether]

OMG HOT

[round mango]

Does anyone know if i can trust songkick for my tickets or should i trust ticketmaster?
(First time going to a concert if i get tickets from the right site)

[night imp]

my question was similar to yours

but i recommend using ticketmaster

even if the prices are bit high its 100% real

[round mango]

Oh okay tysm!

another question, how much are the cheapest tickets on ticketmaster? Also it says there are no upcoming events for ticketmaster.

[rain plank]

For now they've only released the dates for the tour but no additional info on pricing as of yet.

[round mango]

Ooh okay

[rain plank]

Trust me. We're all waiting on how much ticket prices are.

[round mango]

oh okay tysm for answering some of my questions! It’s just that i dont want to be late for the tickets 😅

[rain plank]

Yep no worries. That's why we have this group so we can share any info we find with each other to increase our chances of getting tickets. 🙂

[night imp]

samee omg thats why i need to save

[wraith ether]

yea im pretty sure they are going out on september

[split bison]

Idk anything about songkick but at least you can trust that anything you buy off of ticketmaster are legit tickets. And ticket will show up instantly in your ticketmaster app after purchase

[night imp]

^

[willow pine]

did they announce the tickets

[gleaming cosmos]

No they will probably announce them next month for the US dates.

[wraith ether]

Yea

Next month definitely

[hot bridge]

if they’re announcing tickets in september, when should i buy the membership?

because i wanna get selected for presale

[rain plank]

you might as well just get it now. It lasts an entire year.

it's only like $20 so not too expensive.

[split bison]

Yea get membership now so when the time comes just apply for pre-sales

[hot bridge]

i’m scared of asking my parents cuz i’ve been spending a lot of money recently 😭

i asked cuz i thought buying it earlier would increase my chances of being selected

[gleaming cosmos]

Nope buying it earlier wound not increase your chances. The chances already to acquire a ticket early is if you have the membership. Those who got memberships early on dont mean anything. As long as you have membership you have chances to buy tickets early.

[hot bridge]

ahh ok tysm

[rain plank]

Should've gotten a summer job. 🙂

[hot bridge]

i did have a summer job💀

but my parents don’t like how i’m spending a lot of my money impulsively

[wraith ether]

Yep, I have a summer job and trying to save up

i get $15 an hour

[hot bridge]

good luck i rlly hope you get tickets

[wraith ether]
