🇬🇧 London (November 30 - December 1, 2022)

[timber lily]

but it’d be cool to see some groups i wouldn’t go to separately or some rookies tho

so i’m hoping for a good lineup next year

[fresh reef]

Dreamcatcher needs another eu tour

[timber lily]

yeah right???

[fresh reef]

Depending the rookies. I would go for le sserafim

Limelight kep1er or even triple s xD

[timber lily]

lesserafim, billlie, purple kiss def up there for me too

mamamoo were a cool one for kpop flex too

[fresh reef]

Is purki considered rookies?

[timber lily]

hmm no idea tbh, they were until recently but maybe not anymore

kpop moves too fast

[fresh reef]

lol yep it does

But if purki comes to uk I’ll cry

[timber lily]

i’m going to pixy, didn’t expect them to tour europe at all

[fresh reef]

I love them so much its crazy. Same for le sserafim 😭😭

[timber lily]

i’m so curious about ls’ comeback, that trailer is something outta my teen years

[fresh reef]

Anti fragile?

[fresh reef]

Speaking of purki. I actually spoke to them back in August. Me and yuki 🥰🥰

[timber lily]

yee

[timber lily]

this is adorable

[fresh reef]

They had their cat walk during Fearless showcase and debut. So i think hybe is trying to make them more like models which i am 100% for

[fresh reef]

Thank you 🥹🥹🥹. I love them so much. Their one of my top 4th Gen gg

[timber lily]

yeah they’re great!

[fresh reef]

Seems like they got more blackpink

[jade hearth]

Shame Soho isn't that near the O2, would love to go to the Sokollab store

[frail wyvern]

I might go and have a look at the Birmingham store even tho I have everything 💀 because I’m going to meet some friends there after the concert, so might as well

[fresh reef]

Just hope i can go there when i arrive in London the day before

[jade hearth]

It's about 10 miles drive away from the O2, takes about an hour. 30 mins by train, but have to stop twice and change trains.

[fresh reef]

Well I’m going to my hotel first and then the place if i have the time so hopefully

Otherwise I’ll go on the day I’m going back

[jade hearth]

Hope you have time, is good

[lucid ravine]

Sokollab should open a pop up store at the o2 for the concerts, bet they'd make a fortune

[jade hearth]

I would love them to

[timber lily]

oh my god

dreamcatcher just announced european dates?????

[fresh reef]

Yes.

Just got my mmt email

Ahhhh i would have gone if i didn’t buy blackpink

[jade hearth]

That would have been cool if I had any money right now 😭

Only downside... It's in Brixton, a complete sh*thole area of London

[fresh reef]

Is it? I don’t know London at all

[iron onyx]

brixton academy is my LEAST favourite venue it’s disorganised :c

but then I also hate it because it’s a purely standing venue and I can’t stand for long, literal torture going there.

[timber lily]

well in theory they'd have the outer circle be sitting

but i wonder if people would actually sit

[fresh reef]

Ahh i hate standing

[iron onyx]

standing venues are the worst

[timber lily]

yeah please give me nice seats i beg 😩

[jade hearth]

As said above, the venue isn't the best.

But as a city it's also not great, right next door to Peckham. Wouldn't stay there until 11pm honestly, especially with a wallet or anything worth some money lol

[fresh reef]

Is the o2 one ok for blackness I heard London itself is very dangerous 😣

[jade hearth]

O2 arena is fine imo

Not all of London is bad, just certain parts and even then it is rare.

I just don't like the Brixton/Peckham area, as I had family there before.

[torpid perch]

I need twice or itzy to come to the UK and then I can live my life in peace

[glossy star]

Word

[jade hearth]

Dont travel about at night in non busy areas there, at the concert you'll be fine since there'll be tons of ppl around

Avoid all of south london

[jade hearth]

JYP thinks world tours are just america, korea and japan so not likely

[jade hearth]

I'd beg for Itzy to come here. Would be a dream come true for me 😭 My introduction to Kpop (besides PSY and K/DA).

[torpid perch]

🥹🤞🏽

[jade hearth]

I wanna meet Yuna and tell her, she's extremely special and amazingly talented.

They all are, they are queens.

[torpid perch]

Agreed she’s so talented. I remember my first introduction to them was yeji’s dancer cover of river and was blown away. Witnessing them live is a dream.

[jade hearth]

That dance cover was amazing

I am happy Yeji and Ryujin got to Collab with Bebe Rexha through their dance cover of her song.

[wraith creek]

they said they were doing a world tour but they only went go usa😓😓😓

[jade hearth]

JYP doing their usual :(

EU doesn't matter to them, even though it is as big a market as the US. It's harder to break into

The US market you can manipulate heavily by streaming.

Don't have to be popular there, just stream constantly and you'll get Number 1's.

It's why I never look at charts anymore for the US

[cunning kite]

We will have to go US I guess

[jade hearth]

Happily would tbh, go stay with my Auntie in the Blue Ridge mountains again. Hope ITZY perform in Atlanta lol

[cunning kite]

They are

On the 5th of November

[jade hearth]

Too late to get tickets to see them, and to stay with my Auntie 😭😭

[wraith bison]

Sadge

I’d love to see dreamcatcher

And g idle

[jade hearth]

Dreamcatcher in Brixton next month, would be amazing

Tickets on sale in 3 days 👀 Do I try, and beg for some more moneys lol

[cunning kite]

It is tomorrow for O2 priority

[jade hearth]

Will need to check prices, and then beg... But Brixton at 11pm 😭 Worst part for me

[wraith bison]

I wouldn’t b able to go 😭😭

I already spent so much to see blackpink Lmao

[jade hearth]

Same 😭

I should have held off on the new phone too :(

[cunning kite]

I will have to let go of a kidney if I want to go 😭

[jade hearth]

I'm not using 1 of mine, so that sounds like a plan

A nice $262k lol

Can sell your heart for $1mil too, or your liver for $557k lmao

[cunning kite]

Damn, I thought it would be a lot less

[jade hearth]

Well, that's the supposed legal routes lol A lot less on the black market

[timber lily]

I'm hoping DC is less than £100

my god when did gig prices get so insane???

[jade hearth]

When people started paying them ;-;

[timber lily]

just yesterday I was paying £30 for Trivium and calling it a pricy gig 😩

[jade hearth]

£60 for Slipknot, and it was expensive 😭

[timber lily]

yessss

i actually dug through my emails to find that, it was £60 for side seats closest to the stage

[buoyant helm]

I live in South London 👻😭😭

[jade hearth]

Im so sorry for you

[buoyant helm]

the area I live in is fine, obvs cos it's South london it can be a bit dodgy but compared to the areas around where I am, I live in an oasis 😭 🤠 🤠

[jade hearth]

Most of South London is ok. Certain areas are problem areas tbh

Croydon for example, never go there

Peckham, Brixton, Barking and Dagenham, Hackney, Lambeth, Greenwich, Lewisham.

You get the point lol

[iron onyx]

Went Lewisham, almost got my phone stolen :/ don’t go there

[fresh reef]

Honestly this and I’m already budgeting for le Sserafim Just hate that their all coming back and doing concerts so rapidly.

[fresh reef]

Are these really bad?

[timber lily]

are they touring too? 😩

[fresh reef]

Nah just a comeback with 9 album versions

A bit too early for them to tour unless it's with BTS

[timber lily]

i won't be sad if they come here for kpop flex or something

[fresh reef]

PLEASE I'm on my knees begging 😭 I want to see them so badly.

but with 10 songs with 2 being conversations (in Japanese English and Korean) they don't have enough.

[timber lily]

well they def do for a fest

those are 4-5 songs each anyways so perfect

we might actually get the great mermaid even

[fresh reef]

Blue flame Kazuha doing her ballet would kill me

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBFzUbknL54

[jade hearth]

They have the highest crime rates in London aha

So yeah, with Croydon being the worst of them all

My ITZY light ring comes Monday. Yay, thank you to the person here that found a good link for me to get one

[fresh reef]

Darn should i try looking for another hotel?

[jade hearth]

What borough is your hotel in, can tell you how safe it is.

Not only that, it's a concert so a lot of people there that would help ya

[wraith creek]

even twice did that ngl

[dark canopy]

twice is under jyp 😭

[iron onyx]

You’re welcome! I hope you enjoy the light ring :)

[jade hearth]

:D I will do

[fresh reef]

Tempted to go

Dreamcatcher

[jade hearth]

Oh damn

That is tempting

When is it again?

Then again, like my parents just said. Wouldn't go to Brixton unless I was in an armoured car, and if the tickets were free.

[tight star]

22nd Nov I think

[jade hearth]

Yeah it is, but I wouldn't risk Brixton at all at 6pm onwards.

[fresh reef]

Tuesday 22nd November

6pm to 11 pm

[timber lily]

why is yours cheaper than mine 😭

[jade hearth]

Mine came up at £91.50 D:

[fresh reef]

Did you get the code for mmt discount? I actually joined it and mymusictaste gave me the promo

[timber lily]

nah i went through o2 priority

[fresh reef]

Mmt was a sign up to patron to bring dreamcatcher here so i think that’s why and how i got the discount.

Us insomia were waiting such a long time for them. I think I signed up last year

[timber lily]

damnn

thank you for getting them here 😭

[fresh reef]

But I’m debating so hard to go or not. My boss says i have a few days left to book on holiday and i don’t really do much. Do i go and watch dreamcatcher or not 😭😭😭. Just wish it was next year so it doesn’t need to be so close to blackpink.

[timber lily]

well would you regret not going? and if you go, would you break the bank?

[fresh reef]

If i go i won’t but i won’t be able to buy much merch I would die to hear dami rose me haha 😂

Considering i just spent a bit on LE SSERAFIM so I’m just limiting myself

[timber lily]

honestly i'm kinda wondering if i shouldn't hold off buying the DC album now because of the tickets so I feel ya

I'd always go for concerts over albums tho but that's me

[forest venture]

Especially dreamcatcher, great live group and no guarantee they will go around the world again

albums are not that hard to get later from amazon and such

[fresh reef]

I’ve already bought it so no going back considering I’m using a Japanese proxy but I’ve been tempted to buy pobs especially kkura and zuha 😭

[fresh reef]

😭😭😭

[torpid perch]

Why did I just find a light stick for £120 😭💀

Still looking

[jade hearth]

Sokollab has them for £60 and they come before the concert aha

Legitimate too

I got mine from there

[timber lily]

i wanted one but now i think i want a dreamcatcher one instead

no idea where to get it from tho 😩

the struggles of a kpop fan

[fresh reef]

You’re going to have to get it though a proxy

[timber lily]

sigh

i wa shoping they'd sell it with their merch but people are saying they wouldn't

[fresh reef]

Dreamcatcher lightstick are one of the more unique i think

[fresh reef]

https://www.kyyo.co.uk/products/official-light-stick-dreamcatcher-ver-1-deliveries-from-the-29-04-2022

[timber lily]

ahhh ty ty

[fresh reef]

https://tenor.com/view/dream-catcher-si-yeon-cute-love-heart-gif-11982909

[jade hearth]

That lightstick is beautiful, I love it

[timber lily]

the fact that it also has capes

[jade hearth]

Well, I know my next purchase this month lol

[timber lily]

hahahaha

[jade hearth]

Just collecting light sticks/rings at this point

[torpid perch]

I literally go on one website and end up wanting to buy 5 more things

Being a fan of just 1 group is definitely an investment, let alone multiple 😂😭

[timber lily]

please my bookcase is too full already and i bought my first album dec 2020 😭

[jade hearth]

I have no space in my room to buy albums, one of the excuses I use to not buy as many as I can lmao

[torpid perch]

I havnt fallen down the rabbit hole of photo cards yet, but my bank account is definitely struggling with the amount of albums as it is 😂

[timber lily]

i am resisting the PC hype too so far but the albums are sooo pretty

[forest venture]

The dreamcatcher one even has extension pieces for shorter fans, very nice

[timber lily]

for shorter fans 😭

[jade hearth]

Aww, that's actually quite considerate ngl.

[fresh reef]

I just been collecting photocard myself. My collection of LE SSERAFIM and purple kiss is crazy 😭😭😭😭

I like to say i have more than 20 yuki (of purple kiss ) photocards and that’s just my bias let alone the others

[silent canyon]

It’s gonna be so hard trying to skip the concert videos until november 😭

[jade hearth]

Imma watch them, and then hype myself up even more to see it live.

[torpid perch]

Literally gonna binge watch them all. Cant wait for all the tour moments

[jade hearth]

Same, and then watching our shows both live and on Youtube the next day :D

[wraith creek]

when it comes to the 14th bet it will happen again, I keep getting emails bc of it too

[fresh reef]

Well i did get them yesterday

[timber lily]

omg they looks amazing

[torpid perch]

Side note, why is jisoo’s signature so aesthetically pleasing

[fresh reef]

Cause she’s the best don’t kill me please. I just love jisoo noona so much

[timber lily]

omg younglings

she's gorgeous tbh

[fresh reef]

Younglings ouo

[timber lily]

yess

i’m like 3 weeks older than jisoo

so if she’s your noona, you’re a youngling

[fresh reef]

Well she is a year older than me. Then again i do say Jennie noona now and again despite the fact she’s older than me by a few months. 🥲. I keep calling my friends 姐姐 and 哥哥 despite some of them only a few months older and laughs when i say it 🥲🥲

[wraith creek]

i have not got mine yet😭

[timber lily]

ohh these are unfamiliar to me!

[fresh reef]

Yeah I’m actually from Hong Kong 🫣

[timber lily]

oooo i see! i’d ask how your read them but i’m not sure i’d manage 😭

[fresh reef]

Lmao fair.

[glossy star]

Needed for me 😔

[glossy star]

They are all older than me by at least 9 years 😭

[timber lily]

you're the age of my "baby" brother then omg

just enjoy your youth is all i'm gonna say 😌

[glossy star]

I mean if I'm honest I feel like the days i enjoyed are gone rough time for me rn 😦

At least I enjoyed my childhood ig

[fresh reef]

Lisa is older than you ouo ?

[glossy star]

yh by 9 years

[fresh reef]

Wow

[glossy star]

i thought i wasnt that young as a bp fan

[fresh reef]

You’re really young

[glossy star]

Tbh I'm suprised I though I'd be kinda in the middle

im guessing most here are in their 20s then?

[fresh reef]

Mids 20s

I know some blinks who are older

[glossy star]

Basically same age as blackpink girls

[fresh reef]

Basically

[glossy star]

oop well Im kinda suprised but i mean their isnt rlly an age range to like a kpop group imo

[fresh reef]

Jennie is a few months older than me. Jisoo is a year older and i tend to call rose and lisa babies due to their age🙈🙈

[glossy star]

Lisa and Rose are 9 years older, Jennie 10 and Jisoo 11

[fresh reef]

So when blackpink debuted you were just 6? Or 5?

[glossy star]

they debuted in 2016 so i was 10

I was 3 when 2NE1 debuted

[fresh reef]

Geez I remember when comeback home from 2ne1 was out Yours really making me feel old

Or even when i was jamming to black by g dragon and finding out about Jennie and pink punks . 😭

[timber lily]

honestly i felt this way a few years ago (i was 23-4) but i promise there’s so much to be excited for in life!

i’m a baby stan compared to y’all though, only got into kpop in 2020 with sour candy

i loved that song and was like “i should look up these girls’ names”

you can imagine the rest 💀

[fresh reef]

Honestly i feel like I’m one of the oldest kpop stans in terms of length that I’ve been stanning for 💀

[frail wyvern]

I’ve been a stan since 2016

I was crazy obsessed with Boombayah

I was like 12 years old

[jade hearth]

Even more of a baby, and I am only a fan.

3 months ago is when I got into BP aha

[wraith creek]

i stanned blackpink and some other groups since 2017

[glossy star]

I'll take ur word for it then

I've stanned for about 13 months

[torpid perch]

Got an email confirmation that my lightstick has been shipped 🤞🏽

Love the build ups to concerts 🥳🥳 getting so excited now

[fresh reef]

Less than 50 days

[jade hearth]

Omg that's so close.

[silent canyon]

they really aren’t giving anything away with the world tour teasers 😭

[glossy star]

Ikr

I'm gonna get a lightstick soon

[jade hearth]

Mine should hopefully ship on the 20th, and it shouldn't take too long as the shop it comes from is about an hour and a half away lol

Sort of give away my location, without telling people my location lmfao

[timber lily]

just a radius

[fresh reef]

You’re close to them omg

[jade hearth]

Very, so when you get there. Drive an hour and a half any direction you want, you may see me lol

[timber lily]

i really need to go check out the store when i'm in london tho

[jade hearth]

I want to, but would have to take so many trains from the O2 😭

[timber lily]

ah i meant like away from the concert, just when i'm in the area in general

[jade hearth]

Ahh, I very rarely go to London except with family. So never have a chance to go there :( I would love to though, just because it's such an amazing shop

[timber lily]

i recommend befriending people who live there

[torpid perch]

To be completely honest I probably wouldn’t have even gotten a ticket if it wasn’t for discord and this chat

[jade hearth]

I wouldn't have even known about a tour lmao I don't look up things about Kpop outside of this chat tbh lol

[torpid perch]

Aha I was planning on getting a ticket but had no idea about pre sales etc. especially one as complicated as this one

Looking forward to seeing content from the Seoul concert

I wonder if itzy will go to support them since yuna is such a big fan 🥰

[jade hearth]

Yuna gonna be right in front. Singing along to every single lyric

And I am here for it

[wraith creek]

woohoo finally

[fresh reef]

I would love for kazuha to go if hybe lets her

[torpid perch]

Kazuha’s debut story is so interesting!

[jade hearth]

Hopefully doesn't take too long to get to you

[fresh reef]

One of my biases of le sserafim. Seeing Blackpink and being inspired by them to switch from ballet to kpop

Were there any songs that you really liked listening to?
KAZUHA: I fell in love with K-pop after I first listened to BLACKPINK’s music. I think I randomly saw the “BOOMBAYAH” music video on YouTube. I can still remember how amazed I was when I first saw it. I was like, What is this whole new world? (laughs) And I saw them perform live in concert when they came to Osaka.

[wraith creek]

im hoping so too 🙏🙏

[shut venture]

Does anyone have any ideas of what jisoo might do for her solo?

[forest venture]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSK9a3VNywM, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJDxPkjoeLs, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MevSCC1u90

all three previous ones were great, hoping for something like yuki no hana or habits

[shut venture]

I was hoping she wouldn’t do a cover 😭 not that her covers aren’t great but watching everyone have their own solo, I would wish the same for jisoo

[jade hearth]

If she isn't comfortable, or doesn't want to do one. I feel we should respect that rather than keep asking for one tbh.

There is a reason she hasn't gotten her own solo stuff yet, I doubt it's YG not letting her. Seeing as they let the other 3.

[shut venture]

Oh is that what people think? Sorry I’m a very relaxed blink so I don’t really know a lot about what people think but I deffo don’t think it’s not YG letting her, I just think she’s either too busy or she’s just not sure about her solo. At the end of the day shes 27, she makes her own decisions

I didn’t mean to come off like I’m forcing her to do something

Sorry guys

Also does anyone know if there will be another ticket release

[jade hearth]

Oh no, I didn't mean to make it sound like I was having a go at you ;-;

I just see a lot of people trying to force her to have one on Twitter and stuff, gets tiring haha

[shut venture]

Yeahh I hear you, Twitter is the worst that’s why I deactivated, it’s so toxic🤣

I wish people would just let kpop idols live their lives

[jade hearth]

I only keep it so I can laugh at Liz Truss lol

[jade hearth]

Same 😭

[shut venture]

That is so funny 🤣

[timber lily]

ahahahah lmao

[silent canyon]

Pahaha bet she won’t last a year

[jade hearth]

I'm hoping she doesn't last a month.

I'd say what I want about her here but i'd be permanently banned 😂😂

[torpid perch]

I have to take a deep breath and prepare myself every time I open kpop twitter

[jade hearth]

Kpop Twitter has never changed. I hated it when I first saw the toxicity in every single trend or post anyone made.

I still hate it now, the only difference is. It doesn't affect whether I like Kpop or not anymore (the Kpop Twitter fandoms actually made me not want to listen to Kpop at all).

[torpid perch]

Yeah when I first got into kpop i had to take a break for a bit just because the toxicity is actually vile sometimes. But I realised I just needed to distinguish the artists from the fans, because otherwise my brain will actually melt trying to understand some peoples thought processes

[jade hearth]

Fans are strange, I'll never know why people become obsessed over "celebs". I honestly do not understand "Celebrity" or "Idols" either. Nothing special about them, they are also just people. We all have our own talents, do not understand why theirs makes them worth more than the rest of us

Sorry for the rant lol

[fresh reef]

These teasers are crazy

[timber lily]

whoever styled Rose needs a raise

[frail wyvern]

Literally

She looks amazing

The hair, the outfit, the accessories
everything is just perfect

[glossy star]

Everyone looks amazing here tbh

Idk why but I'm a can of jisoos look here

*fan

[timber lily]

they look incredible tbh, stylists on point

[fresh reef]

Jisoo always looks good

Once the tour kicks off in Seoul I think it might finally hit me that they’re gonna be in the UK 🤯

[wraith creek]

jennie and jisoo slayed those performances

in the concert the lightstick ver 2 is changing colours for some, it says that on the app to download concert data but how do I even download it does anyone know

[jade hearth]

HYPED AS FUCK OMFG

[jade hearth]

Imma guess updating it through the app, or plugging it into a PC and downloading drivers. If it comes with drivers

[wraith creek]

where would I download tne drivers if it does have them because I saw some people updating it with it plugged in,, but the mobile app hasn't given me any updates

maybe I'll turn it to Bluetooth mode nearer to see if it updates

it worked !!

[jade hearth]

I'll see how to do it when I get mine ;-;

[wraith creek]

when u get it just connect it via Bluetooth nearer the concert date (I think it has to be on the date coz it only shows Seoul rn) and u can click it and it downloads 2 uodates

[fresh reef]

It really depends if the o2 has it. I know Seoul it’s able to since its been calibrated before

[wraith creek]

i hope they do 😭😭😭😭

actually I tjink they do

I've been to a concert before and it had Bluetooth lightsticks and we had to enter the ticket details

[wraith bison]

Does anyone know roughly how many people could b standing in VIP?

[ripe comet]

It's hard to tell I could not find any number online

[jade hearth]

The arena floor has a capacity of around 5200 people depending on the event

I just found that out from another concert that was held there.

It didn't have a runway though, so possibly a little less with a runway.

[glossy star]

do any of u know if they did a meet and greet in seoul

if they did maybe they will here

[wraith creek]

i think they did one

i doubt they will do one here

[frail wyvern]

I wish they would do one here

[wraith creek]

same

[glossy star]

nooo whyyyy

imma just hope they do one cos they did one there

[wraith bison]

Does anyone have a Spotify playlist of all the songs that played in Korea?

[dark canopy]

yh do you need it?

[wraith bison]

Yesss pls x

[fresh reef]

Think i might pass out if i see this live https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1581576121451094016/pu/vid/480x852/di8p1ZN7HZXij6RN.mp4?tag=12

If they perform stay here I’ll cry. It’s my favourite song from them

Omg sorn went to blackpink concert. https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cjvge0FsfIC/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

[jade hearth]

No THG :(

[wraith bison]

I’m. Trying to get my cousin into blackpink rn

[fresh reef]

Those netflix shows works i think

[frail wyvern]

I’m surprised they didn’t add it, such a good song

[jade hearth]

Best song

[torpid perch]

Yeah saw that and it broke my heart. Somebody said on Twitter that they may be saving the English songs for Europe/ North America but idk

[jade hearth]

Oooh, they could be. If they are then perfect, we could get it

[severe jackal]

is anyone gonna bring the old lightstick? i have an old one but i havent used it in years and i dont wanna buy and new one but the old one wont connect to the software

[fresh reef]

We don’t know if they will connect at all due to the fact it’s going to need to calibrate

[jade hearth]

Blackpink posted on their insta story how to calibrate/update your lightsticks.

So hopefully they'll work when it comes to the concert.

[wraith creek]

yes im making my mom bring one 😭

[severe jackal]

😭

[severe jackal]

even for version 1?

[wraith creek]

I make my mom bring a lightstick to every concert we go

[wraith creek]

nope just 2 I think

[severe jackal]

oh

[wraith creek]

because 2 have Bluetooth function and 1 doesnt

am I the only one that think the new v2 looks a little weird w the coloured bit above the power button being red or no

[severe jackal]

yea

i dont plan on buying a new one so i think i’ll just take my old one

[jade hearth]

Is it red? I thought it was a metallic pink colour D:

Why would they make it red 😭

[wraith creek]

yeah there will be plenty with the old ones

[wraith creek]

itz red it doesn't look right

[jade hearth]

😭 YG why 😭

[wraith creek]

my limited edition v2 is pink but the other has red

lemme find a photo of the new

[jade hearth]

I wish I had the limited edition 😭

I wish I had the stand too D:

[wraith creek]

look

New on left old on right

it looks so weird

[wraith creek]

the stand is a big lifesaver

i take loads of videos of it reacting w songs but theyre only like 3 seconds long

the little bit above the light changes w it but in the new it stays red and I really think it looks out of place

[jade hearth]

Wtf the one on the left looks weird compared to the limited edition one.

Whyy is it so different

[wraith creek]

ikr

it's got a whole red bit

[jade hearth]

BlackRed.

Alternative universe BlackPink

[wraith creek]

LMAO guess it's the new revolution

[jade hearth]

YG hinting at a new group with that lightstick.

[wraith creek]

yep

(flash warning btw) if u see the bit above the light changes but w the new it's red all the time

sorry it's only 4 seconds that's as much as discord lets me send 😭😭

[iron onyx]

that’s cool :oo

[jade hearth]

I want that limited edition one aha

Where did you get it from? I wonder if they still sell them

[wraith creek]

i actually got mine from a US seller on ebay

i can check if they still sell, shipping was around 26 and the lightstick was around 50 (however the dollar to gbp rate isnt great rn compared to when I bought it so it might be more expensive)

they were super helpful and provided tracking too

[jade hearth]

I'd pay anything for that lightstick ahaha

[frail wyvern]

What’s the difference between the basic one and the limited one

[wraith creek]

right so

limited :
Bluetooth
moodlight settings
can control the brightness from phone
react to mv with other colours
has a stand (2021 ver)
micro usb slot to plug it in
squeaky mode

V1:
doesn't have Bluetooth
has reaction mode but only blinks in pink
uses less batteries
cheaper
squeaky mode

idk if I mentioned everything

[wraith creek]

it's definitely worth it, I was considering to get the new v2 to complete my collection so I have all 3 but the red light is putting me off a little

[jade hearth]

Don't forget to buy the knock off ones too. Truly complete the collection of every single BP lightstick lol

[wraith creek]

oh yes ofc

if I can even find them

i love v1 for its squeak tho

v2 is not as loud

[wraith creek]

it's not so expensive I might get it but I'm not sure

nvm I don't think I can as I don't have a EORI number and they don't ship to uk

[jade hearth]

EORI number is your National Insurance number

One of the biggest reasons I will never, ever purchase from Weverse

Nobody but your employer/government needs to know your National Insurance number.

[wraith creek]

oh my what

i would never give that to weverse why do they even need it

[jade hearth]

Apparently tax reasons, but again. Never needed to do that with any other company before

Turns out it is for customs reasons, but they don't ship to the UK anyway. So why would they need it?

[wraith creek]

eh that' sounds kinda sketchy

[wraith creek]

that's weird ngl

ill just buy one at the o2 if they sell it

dont really need it but at the same time I do

ahh they finally arrived

[jade hearth]

Eyy, glad they have arrived

[wraith creek]

it took a while but finally got a little collection for born pink

i got jisoo digipack, complete box set, signed art cards and a cd

[frail wyvern]

I’ve bought nearly everything from the Born Pink collection 💀

[wraith creek]

got a whole collection to look upon

[jade hearth]

Looking up the EORI stuff more.

Looks like Weverse pass the customs declarations and payments onto us. As only businesses needs EORI ID's to make customs declarations, It's used to pass goods through the UK. Fuck you Weverse lmao

[wraith creek]

wtf

that's so just

difficult

[jade hearth]

Keeps their prices low tbh, so I can see why they do it

[wraith creek]

ohhhhh

[jade hearth]

Looks better when you purchase something for $36. Rather than them adding to the price for customs

and it being $60

[wraith creek]

oh yeah definitely makes it seem more cheap

[jade hearth]

I can buy the RTX 4090 for $1600, but pay around $400 in customs for it.

Which works out to the £2000 it costs in the UK lol

[wraith creek]

customs dont take long at all tbh

[wraith creek]

THEY HAVE A 4090 NOW?

im so out of touch with PC building n stuff recently

[jade hearth]

Yes, and it is insanely good

Double the performance of the 3090ti lol

[wraith creek]

i had a titan rtx in my pc

but idek if that's good anymore

[jade hearth]

I have a 3090, and don't really need to replace it. I just.... Want to lol God I am bad with money 😭

[wraith creek]

oh yes same here as soon as I get money I'm tempted by EVERYTHING

it's like it's against me

[jade hearth]

I legitimately have no money 2 days after payday. I buy everything I wanted from the month before lol

[wraith creek]

SAME HERE

I went broke as soon as born pink came out and I have over 300 quid spare

[jade hearth]

I have borrowed £1200 since buying the concert tickets lmao

[wraith creek]

what day u are going to?

i chose dec

bc the November ones were taking longer

[buoyant helm]

i chose dec because i thought it would make me feel more excited or smth if i waited

anticipation ig

i want to buy a lightstick at the o2 but the red light of the new v2 is putting me off, plus idk how expensive it's gonna be

[jade hearth]

Chose December, just because others here were going on the 1st aha

[buoyant helm]

you gonna be in standing?

[jade hearth]

Yeah

[buoyant helm]

ahh lucky

[jade hearth]

I love standing tbh aha

Granted with my achilles problem that hasn't disappeared after 14 weeks, I feel like I won't like it so much this time 😭

[buoyant helm]

ah that's a pity 😭

[jade hearth]

Still gonna jump around like a rabbit on speed 😂😂

[buoyant helm]

i'm sitting right at the back of the arena, i'm hoping i'll be able to see with my glasses on 😭

[buoyant helm]

🤣

[jade hearth]

You should be able to, the views aren't bad honestly. They may also have some screens for people further back to see

[buoyant helm]

that's a relief to hear

the december concert is my first concert ever, so i'm pretty hyped

[wraith creek]

same the red put me off ao much I'm glad I have the limited v2

the o2 is good wherever you sit ngl I've been there so many times

[buoyant helm]

that's good lol

[wraith creek]

idk what it's like compared the the Wembley one coz I went to that last time and idk if the stage will be the same setout

[jade hearth]

Never been to the Wembley Arena, a lot smaller than one I heard. 12,500 seats compared to the O2 arenas 20k.

[wraith creek]

i went to Wembley for bts and itnwas almost full and very busy but o2 will probably be packed

and blackpink used the Wembley sse not the other one

[jade hearth]

Ahh

[wraith creek]

super excited tho

[jade hearth]

I am too hyped after watching clips

[wraith creek]

SAME

[jade hearth]

The atmosphere is gonna be immense.

[wraith creek]

especially Jennie's solo

i post alot of the photos on my pinterest

[jade hearth]

I am looking forward to Lisa's solo the most, and Jisoo's tbh

[wraith creek]

I love rosè's outfit here

[jade hearth]

During winter, that outfit is gonna be lovely ahaha

[wraith creek]

especially the coat

i love the silhouette part for Jennie's song

I posted so many photos onto my pinterest of it just for fun

I make boards so I can look back on all the performances and outfits

[jade hearth]

I have never used Pinterest tbh. How many photos have you posted so far?

[wraith creek]

so far I posted around 575

[jade hearth]

Oh wow

[wraith creek]

Or 535 I forgot the exact number

its very entertaining for me

idk why

i think maybe it's because I like photography

[jade hearth]

Possibly, a lot of photographers use pinterest from what I have seen

[wraith creek]

yes i have seen some cool photos

i post alot of their comeback stages

and rn im working on the world tour

[fresh reef]

for those who haven't got tickets yet

[wraith creek]

225 for standing is not that bad

[jade hearth]

I wanna know what seat is £1147 ahah

[wraith creek]

ticket master are like 800 each

😭

[wraith creek]

prob a vip

[fresh reef]

ssection 112

This might be a stupid question but is it ok to go to the concert without a lightstick? Don't hate me please. I've bought one but as I'm going on holiday in the next few months (last minute as my parents told me) I just don't think it would be feesable for me to spend 60+ on a lightstick when I could use it for food and drink over there.

[wraith creek]

yes it is perfectly okay

you won't be the only one don't worry abt it

ive been to plenty and not everyone had a lightstick to take, and noone will dig at you if you dont either

[tight star]

im not taking a lightstick or planning to get one for the show either

[wraith creek]

tbf just enjoy urself while ur there with or without a lightstick

[tight star]

im also not planning to take my phone out at all lol

only for ticket entry

want to just enjoy the moment

[fresh reef]

I've got good seats apparently but it's the preassure of buying vip blink membership + having to pay for lightstick which I might just use once 😦

[jade hearth]

Just enjoy yourself, no need to go with everything they sell ngl.

I can already guess a lot of people going will be new or casual fans.

[wraith creek]

yep

[fresh reef]

Thanks for the reasurance 🙂

[shut venture]

Does anyone know where to get the black pink hoodies they wore today at the Seoul concert? Like a uk version so I don’t need to pay ridiculous prices for the shipping

[wraith creek]

idk what they look like but there some on https://shopuk.blackpinkmusic.com

[shut venture]

Thank you, this was helpful!

I was scared the website wasn’t legit haha

[wraith bison]

How many people would have blink ultimate ? 😭

Then blink deluxe

I just want to get near the front

[jade hearth]

Well, Weverse seemed to prioritize giving VIP's seats over standing.

So I wanna say around 1.5k are likely Ultimate and Deluxe.

[glossy star]

I only got blink plus 😭

[willow parrot]

i have a quetion did somone buy tickets on eventim?

[jade hearth]

O2 Priority AXS.

AXS was the only official seller IIRC

[wraith bison]

Same let’s push our way through 😀

[wraith bison]

I hope they’re all short

[jade hearth]

Same, granted you are taller than me in heels D:

So no pushing past me :P

[wraith bison]

Aight I’ll be next to u

[jade hearth]

Imma have to carry you on my shoulders so you can get the best view LOL

[fresh reef]

I need to ask how do they know you’re in the right seat? Surely they don’t check if i was to go A row 🫣

[timber lily]

there are usually barriers and security between the sectors

[jade hearth]

And if you are in someone else's seat, they'll likely tell security and security will escort you to the right section. At least that happens in football matches all the time

[fresh reef]

There goes my chance of telling jisoo i love her 😭

[jade hearth]

You still can, just shout really, really, really loudly

[wraith creek]

someone did it at a concert that I was at and everyone heard it somehow and laughed

they were screaming literally

[fresh reef]

Blinks would kill me if i did 😭

[jade hearth]

Who cares what they think lol

[lyric fulcrum]

tell me why Tally slaps

[jade hearth]

Because Tally is one of the best songs on the album

[glossy star]

Yahhhh

[glossy star]

What are u guys fav song of their album?

I rate shur down and typa girl

[wraith bison]

Time to order some big ass boots

[wraith creek]

tally and shut down

the whole album is just a vibe

[jade hearth]

Typa girl and THG are my 2 faves

[jade hearth]

Gonna be taller than my short ass at this point 😭

[glossy star]

Fr

[glossy star]

Takes one to know one 😅

[jade hearth]

😂😂

[timber lily]

samee

after pixy yday i def want platform boots now too

[glossy star]

How tall r u guys I'm 5 5 sad noises

[timber lily]

same here

[jade hearth]

5ft 10" for me

[jade hearth]

6'7

[jade hearth]

Can I have your height 😭😭😭😭

[fresh reef]

5ft7 or just under (168/169cm)

[frail wyvern]

6’2

[timber lily]

suddenly incredibly glad i got seats 🤣

[jade hearth]

I am hoping all these people that are 6ft+ aren't VIP, or are VIP plus so they are behind me

[wraith creek]

5'3

[wraith creek]

I doubt there will be tons

prob a couple

[jade hearth]

I have long arms, so I can film at least aha

[torpid perch]

when they swear on tally it gives me life

I really hope no one pushes 😭 I’m not blackpink’s strongest soldier

[jade hearth]

Some people may, unfortunately

Don't go to the toilet though. You'll lose your place in the standing area 😭

[wraith creek]

from where im sitting, i should be able to film well hopefully , im gonna rely on my 30x zoom tho lmao

[torpid perch]

Dehydration it is

[wraith creek]

get some before u go in prob if u can

[glossy star]

Most of u guys are so tall

:*((

[glossy star]

Finally someone shorter than me lol

[wraith creek]

haha yes im shorter than most people sadly

[shut venture]

I’m 5’1 😩

[fresh reef]

Same here haha

[safe kraken]

IM GOINGGGGG

[unreal mortar]

Do you think the merch will only be available inside or is also available outside of the O2?

Im going to rush it to get the lightstick at the concert if it is near the price they did in Seoul

[dark canopy]

they have a merch area outside

[jade hearth]

Unfortunately, they won't be near the price they were at Seoul.
Never works like that, since we also have import fees, and a higher VAT rate than them. Plus the venue tacks on their small amount too.

[wraith creek]

yeah they will be overpriced, if they do sell the new lightsticks they will be around 40 or more

[jade hearth]

That's cheap aha I spent £60 lmao

And about to spend more for that limited edition one too aha

[wraith creek]

i bought mine for 65 and got the v1 for 30

[wraith bison]

5”7

Is anyone wearing masks?

[jade hearth]

If I can get a pink venom one like theirs, yeah. If not, then most likely not aha

[wraith creek]

nope

[wraith bison]

Ohokkki

[torpid perch]

Ah I really want the one Lisa had in the shut down MV, if YG doesn’t turn that into merch then it’ll be an opportunity missed

[jade hearth]

That's the one I want too. The one in my pfp.

The balaclava.

It looks so good

[glossy star]

The cherry on top of my misery is imma guy 😶😭

Makes 5 5 sound even worse

[timber lily]

i probably will, boosters don’t seem to be offered for young people yet

[fresh reef]

I’ll be wearing my mask. Being triple jabbed too

[wraith bison]

Just coz there’s a cold and stuff going around

[fresh reef]

Yep is the season already and it’s going to get worse especially November dec time

[timber lily]

i mean i got corona in august and i only recently stopped coughing so pls stay safe, it's horrible even when it's mild TT

[wraith bison]

Fr I had covid in June and bro I couldn’t breathe or sleep properly 😭

[timber lily]

yeah right?? and it lingered for so long

[wraith bison]

ESP if I’m standing imma be round so many people

[wraith bison]

I was drinking like 5 litres

Of water

[timber lily]

i kept my mask on for pixy and it was honestly fine, i forgot about it 2 songs in

[timber lily]

it was tea for me, i had the sore throat variant and it was awwwwful

[wraith bison]

I just rmbr being really tired the first few days

I just hope the girls don’t get sick

[fresh reef]

I actually never had covid but I’ve always wear a mask and clean my hands. Plus disinfecting myself with antibacterial spray. Might just be me and my overly cautious precaution. Hope i don’t jinx my self.

[timber lily]

no no, keep doing it

i only got it because my partner got it first, otherwise i also go full hypochondriac 🤣

[wraith bison]

Idek how I got it, I was on holiday probs going around markets 😭😭

[fresh reef]

that's the worse

[jade hearth]

You are lucky, I caught it back in March 2020.

Was completely asymptomatic, but my Parents were rushed to hospital.

Then I caught it again last year, and then again after Christmas 😭
Thought I had a cold both times, took a test. Covid 😭

Isolated for a week as my tests kept coming back positive till 8 days later lol

[timber lily]

yeah my friend tested positive for a bit after

[jade hearth]

Granted, lovely time off work aha

The first time I had it in 2020, I had 5 weeks off of work.

[timber lily]

woah that bad 😦

hope y'all were fine after!

[jade hearth]

We were, my Mother seems to still have some problems from it. Breathing difficulties whenever she does any sort of activity.

It's not nice, and when we got back to work and saw customers that blatantly kept refusing to follow any rules. We weren't nice to them, I definitely wasn't seeing as my parents were badly affected at the time.

[timber lily]

yeah it really annoys me how selfish people have been

i was in london this weekend and there were so few people masking up

[jade hearth]

Tbh, I err... Don't wear masks anymore, neither does any of my family since we are fully jabbed up now.

I hate the people who refuse to Vaccinate tbh

[timber lily]

yeah, i've had so many arguments with my family about it

[fresh reef]

When it first broke out i took a ten weeks off from work and barely gone out because of covid. My family all had face masks and it’s all because of my family in Asia so we were all prepared for it

[fresh reef]

I hate peoples that question why i wear face masks. The public just seems to brush its gone. No it didn’t magically vanish. People are still catching it everyday and people have been vaccinated but it’s not gone.

[timber lily]

tbh no one has ever questioned me but i tend to be pretty fast to express my very "radical" views on covid so that's that

[fresh reef]

If you look at people across Asia they are still wearing their. Is only the west that just don’t seem to get it. Granted asians or at least south east asisns have been wearing them pre covid

[wraith creek]

tbf it's not mandatory but I really hate it when im wearing a mask or someone else is and someone goes to sit next to them and coughs all over them ect, like Ik its not mandatory but respect that someone Is wearing a mask to prevent them from getting sick,, have some decency

[timber lily]

yeah that's it, i saw so many people coughing

[wraith creek]

i hate that you can go out with covid still

[timber lily]

it's not that hard to put on a mask if you're sick even if it's just a cold (obviously not talking about people who can't wear masks for various reasons)

[wraith creek]

for real

im exempt but I still wore one when I could to protect my family and the others around me

[jade hearth]

I wore one, up until this year tbh.

[jade hearth]

They wear masks daily because their air pollution is insanely high compared to here. Nothing to do with colds or viruses or that, literally air pollution.

[timber lily]

afaik it's also customary to wear one if you're sick as well

[jade hearth]

It is

One thing I did notice when we had to wear masks, is we never had our "flu" season during the winter.

[wraith creek]

yes because the flu didn't spread like covid in a way if u get me

like uhh

they think flu is not as bad as covid bc covid spread so fast and there was no vacine

[mild bronze]

does anyone know how to purchase the tickets? especially for cheap

[jade hearth]

For cheap, likely won't happen, and the legit source is AXS resale.

And any other reseller site claiming you can buy tickets is a scam, as you can't transfer them yet.

[glossy star]

That's unlucky I was very fortunate when I got it I literally felt like nothing changed

[glossy star]

I'm vaccinated but I think masks look cool idk if I'm weird haha 😅

[jade hearth]

Masks do look cool, if they are the right one. I have a mustache one

[glossy star]

Nice mine is just the plain black fabric one minus some branding on one side

[jade hearth]

SHE'S GONE. HALLELUJAH

[timber lily]

bahahahahahhahahahahahah

i'm scared of what's coming next now tho lmao

[jade hearth]

They surely need to call a GE.

Claimed it's not in the public interest, but it is. They know it's over for them

If you take out the 14 days for the Queen's passing, where Government was closed.

Truss lasted 30 days, not even a full month lmfaooo

[timber lily]

yeah as if these absolute buffoons know what's in the public interest

[jade hearth]

THE CABBAGE WON, ALL HAIL THE ANTI-GROWTH COALITION AND THE WOKERATI

[timber lily]

crying at the lettuce

[jade hearth]

Lmao

[frail wyvern]

Not Liz Truss resigns as UK prime minister

[frail wyvern]

True true

40 days until they are here

[frail wyvern]

Can’t wait

[lyric fulcrum]

[fresh reef]

Well techincally 39 days until 30th Nov but who's counting 👀

[frail wyvern]

Can’t believe I’m going on the 30th and the 1st

Lmao

[jade hearth]

40 days till I can watch the girls absolutely kill it on stage.

[jade hearth]

Lucky 😭

[frail wyvern]

I got scared because people kept saying they might disband, so I couldn’t risk only seeing them live once

[jade hearth]

Well, even if they do. As I said to someone else.

They'll join a western label, and change their name to PinkBlack. All will be good :P

[wraith creek]

same ngl

[jade hearth]

Well, it's either Rishi Sunak or once again the great Buffoon Bojo

[novel portal]

is there any channel/anything to find people with seats close to mine? i asked a while ago but didn't rlly get the answer :(

[jade hearth]

There is a UK blinks server for our concert, but likely not allowed to link it here

[timber lily]

who is he

[jade hearth]

D:

[timber lily]

i'm uncultured okay

[jade hearth]

Ricky Gervais is an amazing Comedian, but is very, very controversial and jokes about anything

[frail wyvern]

He is a fucking icon

[timber lily]

ohhh the name does ring a bell but yeah, i'm not a comedy person so i only know that one blond guy

[jade hearth]

I recommend you to watch "The Office", the UK one not the US.

[timber lily]

i think i tried to once but it wasn't my thing

i'm not british though and despite living here for near a decade, y'all's humour still makes me scratch my head in confusion

[jade hearth]

Aww shame, I remember when it first came on TV. My Dad thought the guy was a prick, since it said it was a documentary. Not realising it was a comedy. First thing Ricky Gervais ever did.

Our humour is dry wit, very difficult to understand or get into honestly. Which is understandable.

[timber lily]

i think it's that but also a lot of cultural references that i don't know?

[jade hearth]

Possibly, I always recommend the old classics. Like Only Fools and Horses, Porridge, Open All Hours, etc etc.

[timber lily]

my experience so far has mostly been through doctor who and that one is very funny to me

[jade hearth]

Doctor Who 😍

I have to ask, fave Doctor?

[timber lily]

ahhhh such a hard question

honestly it'd have been Eccleston if he stayed for longer, but i think it's Tennant

Matt Smith was good too but I have so much beef with Moffat's writing that I couldn't get into the story itself

[jade hearth]

You may possibly have the same ranking as me.

Tennant
Ecclestone
Smith.

I had an obsession with Doctor Who aha

[timber lily]

basically ahahaha

all of your statement

i was obsessed

i started watching it to practise my english before i moved here for uni thinking scifi isn't my thing and ended up loving it

[jade hearth]

It's just such a great show, and absolute masterpiece of British TV

[timber lily]

yess it's real good

[jade hearth]

I do like some of the Classic Doctor Who, but so many lost episodes that we will never be able to see 😭

[timber lily]

i've watched a few too, it's so interesting to see how much cinema progressed from the beginning to now

[jade hearth]

The old Cybermen were great, plastic helmet and a bit of tin foil. Love it

[timber lily]

yeah we watched one episode at uni

well a few actually, for the 50th anniversary

one of each doctor

and i remember a dalek being taken out of the scene crowd surfing style

[jade hearth]

LMAO

Love it

[timber lily]

compared to the finale of the first and second (reboot) seasons that were near thriller level for me...

[cunning kite]

Only Big Sam can save it now

[tight star]

Has anyone had any luck selling tickets on AXS in the past?

It says there should be a resell option but unless I'm blind I don't see one

[jade hearth]

Give him the job, he's great. Big Sam deserves a second chance

[astral coyote]

if you go onto the tickets themselves there should be a sell button

[wraith creek]

UK is a mess rn fr

[jade hearth]

We are the laughing stock of the world, but at least we can have a laugh before we crash and burn

[wraith creek]

yep

icl atp I wanna move back to italy😭😭

[wraith creek]

yea, find the ticket u wanna sell and there's a resell/ sell button

[timber lily]

i don't wanna move back to bulgaria but i'm seriously wondering where i wanna go

[wraith creek]

I love bulgaria

[timber lily]

omg you've been?

[wraith creek]

yess to visit some of my friends

i love the Easter celebrations

[jade hearth]

I wanna move to Sweden, Socialist country 😍

[wraith creek]

SWEDEN

🤩

im like so excited for the concert

im SO hyped idk,why

[timber lily]

you should be, it's gonna be great!

[wraith creek]

ahhh what day is everyone going

[timber lily]

1st dec for me

[wraith creek]

same for me

[timber lily]

what sector?

[wraith creek]

wait what do u mean by sector

im not used to the o2

😭

[timber lily]

i think this is a sketch of the venue

think we're in 407

[wraith creek]

oh I did not get told that

but

I'm in 106 near the front

im pretty sure

[timber lily]

ohh luckyyy

[wraith creek]

my mom and her friend had 2 screens up to buy them 😭

[timber lily]

honestly i feel like kpop gigs are teaching me how to fight for tickets 💀

[wraith creek]

yes

it gives u practice

[timber lily]

i miss being able to buy them a week before the gig

[wraith creek]

u must get them it's a necessity

buying these tickets is life or death and war against others until you get them

[timber lily]

haha yeah

[wraith creek]

i wish

now it's overpriced

and v stressful

[timber lily]

yess prices have gone up so much too

[wraith creek]

yeah

YG really milked everyone out of their money

idk why it was so expensive

[timber lily]

i mean it's not just YG

[wraith creek]

when I went in 2019 it was like half the price

[wraith creek]

yeah true

[lilac summit]

[forest venture]

all concerts seems to have doubled in price

[astral coyote]

im in 106 at the dec show too!

[fresh reef]

That’s yg tax 😭

[jade hearth]

Not just YG

[fresh reef]

Hallyu was 100 to 200 upwards of 400 for vip
Mix was 150 max but outdoor and standing
Most kpop shows were 200 at most

[jade hearth]

Which is way too expensive for a 2 hour event ngl

[timber lily]

slipknot in 2020 was £60 for much closer to the stage seats and i thought that was expensive at the time

so yeah, prices have gone up for most things it seems

[cunning kite]

Nice, I'm in 409 I think

[fresh reef]

Not really when you know where they are coming from. A single plane ticket from Korea to the UK is expensive

[forest venture]

Energy is 8x normal price and staff pay is also up a lot

But very sad to see acts that were 30 go for 70 these days

[fresh reef]

Plus the cost of living has significantly increased its understandable

[jade hearth]

The prices Kpop charges are insanely high, even if they are coming from Korea.

Artists coming from the US, charge less lmao

[forest venture]

and everyone is touring at the same time, so many covid reruns or covid delayed tours

[fresh reef]

Usa too uk is cheaper than south east asia

[forest venture]

But even USA acts are no longer cheap

[jade hearth]

Ok will use Australia here then, SIA's concerts are cheaper, and she travels from Australia.

Don't defend Kpop prices. They are extortionate, for no reason other than greed.

Concerts are expensive now, but not to the degree that top, top, top artists and Kpop are.

[fresh reef]

That’s the cost of flying from south korea to uk. Considering the idols and acts are on a timely schedule

[forest venture]

Just do the math and paying 80 for a ticket isn't that bad if you include transport and lodging for at least 50 staff and all the fees from venues and other service providers

[fresh reef]

^^^^

[jade hearth]

80 is fine, £200+ is not lol

[forest venture]

also at least 4, probably 10 lorries worth of equipment

the cheapest tickets were 80 at msrp

[fresh reef]

200 for top tier tickets

[jade hearth]

Top tier were £800 lol

[fresh reef]

You’re paying for the experience not the show at that point

[forest venture]

vip has always been nonsense pricing

[jade hearth]

Well, most VIP that hit that price have a meet and greet, this one has barely anything worth £800 in it ngl

So once again, just greed

[fresh reef]

If you can’t afford it then don’t buy it. Have a strict budget and follow it

[forest venture]

No meet and great at all on any kpop tour this year

even dreamcatcher had a high touch add on of 150 that was only a high wave

[fresh reef]

We are still in a pandemic

[jade hearth]

Dude

[timber lily]

Pixy had something akin to a meet and great, you got a photo with the members too

[jade hearth]

Covid isn't going away lmao

[forest venture]

also kind of glad blackpink doesn't have to deal with meet and greets

[jade hearth]

We can't keep cowering away for decades lol

[fresh reef]

To be honest yes

[forest venture]

EU and USA don't have the crowd that can behave themselves

so much stress for little gain

the send off and sound check are a much nicer setup

@timber lily outside of Korea?

[timber lily]

for their EU tour yeah

i mean idk what exactly in included, i didn't buy it, but people took individual photos with the members (i assume as part of the higher tier package but don't quote me on it)

Polyphia also had a meet & greet

[forest venture]

cool, didn't know these groups even went to Europe

dreamcatcher high wave doesn't even allow photography

[wraith creek]

do u know what row?

[jade hearth]

That's a complete lie lol Never been to a meet and greet here that hasn't been well mannered, and well co-ordinated.

[fresh reef]

Can’t we just be glad blackpink are coming to the UK 😭

And that artists are finally touring again? Despite prices of fuel going up and cost of living too

[forest venture]

I have seen enough nonsense at boy group concerts to know people are just apes at these situations

[jade hearth]

I am, I just hate that they are ripping people off in the middle of worst cost of living crisis we have ever had. While the billionaires charging these inflated prices, don't need any of the extra money to afford anything

[forest venture]

most are probably fine but some

I know a cofounder of a large festival and it's really just high prices

They can't run events at 2018 ticket prices

[timber lily]

well pixy was £45, while some years ago i'd have expected a gig of this size to be about £30, so that felt reasonable

but there's no denying YG is in it for the money

[forest venture]

Pixy did like 1000 people venues?

[timber lily]

even less i believe

[fresh reef]

Like i mentioned yg tax

[forest venture]

Touring is YG's main source of income

[jade hearth]

Festivals can't no, I agree with that.

This is just a concert, run by a $5bil company. I am sure they can easily afford a ticket from Korea to here, without putting prices up. They could literally afford to fly every single one of us in this chat, to Korea every day for a year lol

[timber lily]

i mean so is most musicians'

[jade hearth]

True, Ed Sheeran made 500mil from touring 😭

[forest venture]

A small 1000 people venue is very cheap, bar is most of their profits

[jade hearth]

Imagine all that money, would be a dream

[forest venture]

Good tour profit will motivate the members to extend their contract and do more tours

so not all bad

also don't think you would able to get a ticket if BP tour had sub 50 euro tickets, everyone would try to get tickets incl their moms

[jade hearth]

Could have gone to Wembley Stadium :P

Sorry for arguing btw, just hate when people defend Billionaires 😭

[timber lily]

they would (and did) anyways

yeah mood lmao

[forest venture]

probably all booked by ex boyband members touring

[fresh reef]

The World Cup is on isnt it and also saw someone already booked that venue before bp

[forest venture]

I remeber pre covid, cheap BTS tickets were gone in seconds, BP tickets were 180 euro and no rush, could have bought before the concert started

[jade hearth]

Yeah, all stadiums in the UK will be empty. Due to it being held in Qatar and football being stopped for that time.

Is why I kept hoping for Tottenham Stadium, as I have membership and would beat out Weverse for first dibs on tickets because of it lol

[forest venture]

Be glad that it's a venue with good sound and almost no bad seats

[jade hearth]

I am

And indoors, which is great if it rains

[fresh reef]

True I remember getting good tickets non vip for 90

[forest venture]

football stadiums can have some terrible sound an far away seats

[wraith creek]

Wembley is good ngl

[jade hearth]

Ours is quite good, if you use our actually sound set up and not your own (Looking at you Guns and Roses)

[wraith creek]

I been to a couple concerts at Wembley and itnwas alr

[fresh reef]

Just hope the place is ok for sound

[jade hearth]

The O2 is the best music venue in the UK. Sound will be fine

[wraith creek]

yep

[forest venture]

Also a live band so they will have people who know sound engineering on the tour

[jade hearth]

Really happy they have a live band

Love a live band

[forest venture]

the songs are so much better

especially stuff like really

[jade hearth]

Also means 1 step closer to Rose covering a metal song LOL

[forest venture]

would moshpit to that

[jade hearth]

Frantically googling "How to start a moshpit with parents at a Kpop concert" right now

[forest venture]

I hope the crowd gets a bit rowdy if there is enough space, dx4 remix is great song for that

[wraith creek]

LOOL

[forest venture]

you only need 3 people to have a functional mosh pit

[jade hearth]

I think they are packing that standing area to it's limit ngl

[wraith creek]

yeah they prob will ngl

[forest venture]

aren't there laws on safety breaks and such?

[wraith creek]

it's a shame I can't bring my proper camera tho, gotta rely on my samsung now

[astral coyote]

row R

[jade hearth]

The max in the standing area was 5200

[forest venture]

you can sometimes get away with a pocket camera/point and shoot

[wraith creek]

ur 2 behind

[forest venture]

like a sony rx100

[jade hearth]

Imma just use my phone, has a nice camera. Films 4k really well, good quality and not too saturated either. Which is nice

My last phone used to Over-saturate colours to an insane degree

[astral coyote]

you’re the first person ive found in my section for the dec show lmao

[forest venture]

also array mic so you might get some concert

[timber lily]

think i'll just use my eyes and file it all to my memory

[forest venture]

and not just yelling lisa fans

[wraith creek]

it has to have a lens under 35mm which is TINY, i have an slr/dslr camera and it has bulky lenses which come off and they aren't allowed sadly

[wraith creek]

tbf idm using my phone i got 30x zoom if I need it

[jade hearth]

That is a plan, but I wanna at least get Lisa pole dancing on film lmfao

[wraith creek]

same,here ive barely seen anyone

[forest venture]

The best videos are 1 day after the concert

[wraith creek]

who has 106

[forest venture]

before youtube nukes the fancams

[timber lily]

tiktok

[jade hearth]

Waiting for Video footage of BP walking out of Harrods, and into the McDonalds down the street for food.

[timber lily]

lmaoo

[wraith creek]

waiting for them to come from lidl or tesco express/extra

[forest venture]

getting some danish at the lidl

[jade hearth]

Tesco meal deal.

[wraith creek]

apparently they're removing the meal deal

gonna cry

if they do

[jade hearth]

BRUH

😭

They can borrow my clubcard before they remove it

[wraith creek]

yèp

[timber lily]

they are what 😭

[wraith creek]

love those tesco meal deals

[jade hearth]

In these times, the Tesco Meal Deal is good for people. D:

[wraith creek]

fr

wait

am I allowed to send links

or no

[timber lily]

should be fine? depends what you're linking i guess lmao

[wraith creek]

just a website abt the meal deals

😭

[jade hearth]

Well, is UK based and definitely concert based. Since we will all likely buy a meal deal before the show

[wraith creek]

ill be running to greggs

!!!

[wraith creek]

https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/whats-on/food-drink-news/calls-ban-meal-deals-tesco-23951009

idk if i was allowed to send that

but oy well

[timber lily]

woooow

[jade hearth]

Bruh, that's not gonna stop obesity ahaha

[wraith creek]

fr

[timber lily]

yeah, i'm sure banning a sandwich, a bottle of orange juice and a pack of grapes would aid this cause

[jade hearth]

I'm fat, and I barely ever get the meal deal lmao

Not gonna help me 😭

[wraith creek]

fr people will just buy more stuff where they haven't banned it

[timber lily]

when i was a poor student and the meal deal was a luxury, i lived on custard creams because that's all i could afford to eat out, not sure that was a very healthy option either 😬

[jade hearth]

Maybe they could just ban the unhealthy options from the meal deal. Surely that would be a better idea

[timber lily]

yeah exactly

[wraith creek]

imo, I don't rlly think they're too unhealthy depending on what you get

like you could have worse

[jade hearth]

I don't see them calling to ban Rustlers burgers, and they are cheaper and worse for you than the meal deal :/

[cunning kite]

RIP, the meal deal kept me going during uni

[timber lily]

yeah that's it, remove the coke and the crisps options and it's actually a pretty solid meal

[wraith creek]

fr or stuff in fast food but they would never icl

[timber lily]

(apologies to everyone who likes coke and crisps, i don't want to make you miserable i promise)

[wraith creek]

it's just convenient

[jade hearth]

Pepsi is best :P

I said that once in Atlanta, Georgia and got told if I said it again. I'd be shot lol

[timber lily]

ahahahah

[cunning kite]

[wraith creek]

you know those kinder suprise eggs right?

[timber lily]

i don't like sodas so i'm indifferent to people's choices

[jade hearth]

I LOVE THEM

Especially when they have the lil beyblades in em

[wraith creek]

i went to new York a few years ago and I asked for one of them coz I couldn't find them, turns out they're banned/ not sold in the USA (bc they think it's a choking hazard)

[fresh reef]

I’ll go monster 😉

[cunning kite]

Yes, I miss the old ones where they were shaped like eggs

[wraith creek]

beyblade burst turbo

[cunning kite]

[jade hearth]

Funny how they'll ban Kinder surprise eggs because kids can choke on em, but allow you to carry... I'm not gonna finish this sentence

[wraith creek]

yeah

it's crazy

[fresh reef]

Carry?

[wraith creek]

they have a ferris wheel in the toys'r us and u can go in it, it was so cool

[jade hearth]

Petition to bring back Beyblades btw? Please, kids these days don't know how great it was owning a Black Dranzer, while everyone else had a normal one

[cunning kite]

Yea, I've heard about that too. Was US the only country to ban it?

[wraith creek]

beyblades are just op

[wraith creek]

pretty sure, I've seen them in multiple countries I've been too

excluding Africa bc I don't think I saw any

[timber lily]

i fully agree

[cunning kite]

[jade hearth]

Chile, US, and apparently Germany have considered it too due to certain chemicals in the chocolate.

[cunning kite]

Ah I see

[wraith creek]

kinder are just yum

[jade hearth]

They are, so moreish.
I started buying the little kinder sticks, will eat a pack of 24 in 1 sitting.

[wraith creek]

I love all the stuff that Ferrero makes, when I return to Italy every time each year I always buy stacks of kinder delices and all the other ones

[cunning kite]

The maxi?

[wraith creek]

ugh I love them
