SAMEEE
my ults are bp and purple kiss
lol i think we all agree here
YOU HAVE GREAT TASTE i love purple kiss’ music sm
oml jin so real
i was looking for a pink cardigan to finish off my concert outfit and i FINALLY found one
OH MY thank goodness im so happy you did
i never realised how much of a pain it is to find pink jackets and stuff until now
literally!
its so good that you found one !!
yess i looked everywhere i swear
and then one day i went into city beach and there was some right in front of me
barely anywhere stocks them and when they do they arent what youre looking for or like $200
OH MY GOD it was literally fated how perfect
are the prices in vic different to nsw do you reckon
it's unheard of now tbh
probably not
guys sorry to change the topic but check bp insta story…
they could be but id be more surprised if they were
right its so stupid
AHHH OMFG
uh oh
lol it’s good
good thing im going shopping tmrw 🤘🏼
ima buy merch at the event
AHH THE HOODIE oh my god
i want that pink venom shirt so bad
yeah me too im praying they have the hoodies in stock
what’s a pink venom?
largest size bc i need comfort 🙏🏼
ITS SO CUTE im in love w their current merch line up
hopefully there'll be a cotton on near by
bp album name :)
IT WAS SO SAD it couldve brought sm more. cotton ons is carrying tho
aww man 😭
but its okay bc cotton on is on the next level with this
I wish I was in Melbourne on Friday to go to that! I don't fly in until Saturday 😅
cotton ons is so perfect
AWW MAN im sorry that sucks
i fly in on friday night, hopefully we can try for Saturday?
is it a one day thing
if so I was robbed
is there anyone in melb that could buy you some ? i wonder if cotton on would hold it till you get here due to circumstances actually
I believe it is, yeah.
SCAN
scam.
the all caps enthusiastic scream that i just had to misspell 😭
that is devastating
its so upsetting
Reads as just one day.
Might be worth going in on Saturday to see if they have any leftover stock?
like hello obv people are gonna be flying in and wont be able to get to it in one day
i reckon so yea
surely
i might do that
i hope so
aww thats so stinky
https://www.melbournecentral.com.au/what-s-on/blackpink-cotton-on-pop-up-june-9 I asked my older sister to go but she doesn’t know if she’s gonna have the time. Sadly I have school 😭
One day only, offering exclusive tour merchandise, Bubble Tea & more at Cotton On, don't miss out!
suuurely you guys all manage to get dome
SOME oh my
its always the four letter words IM CRYING
i can't go to the syd one cus of school
I wish they made it longer than a day
bruv
all weekend wouldve been better
me too :((
ive gotta get everything ready for my flight, ill talk to you guys tomorrow!!!
Definitely I mean at least we can get the tour merch 💕

all good !! ttyl 👋🏼
Byeee :))
very very true
oh my i forgot abt that
cotton on tryna steal my merch money
nah i need to SAVE
Save ur coin 
i may go and check it out tho
Is there special merch for the VIP tickets, or is that just normal merch as well?
Ye u get some extra stuff
WOO thank god
if not thats such a scam
but yk crisis averted
For real? Do you know what they get?
Especially since the tickets for vip are over 1000 dollars if there was nothing extra that be a scam 💀
EEEE i keep going from anxious to excited ik im gonna be so sad when its all over
god right
i have exclusive or smth and for the cost i hope that seats comfy asf w a good view of the stage
it was a shark tank getting tickets
Post concert depsression hits so hard 😭
Aaa srry I don’t know
i had post concert depression after bang bang con i wont be able to handle it
its ok i have a nice comfy hotel to go to and room service to utilise while i ball my eyes out
Since it’s probably going to be probably the best concert I’ve ever been to ye I’m def gonna be crying too 
oh my god its gonna be phenomenal
i’m hope post concert depression doesnt hit you too hard </3
YESSS I can’t get over how the is literally in 2-3 days
absolutely crazy
ME NEITHER im so excited. its gone by so fast
tickets were secured in what, feb ? its already june 😭
Ikr time flew by extremely fast so glad cuz I cannot wait any longer 
Hopefully they sell most of the tour merch there because with other groups at some locations they have less merch than others at different locations 
does it matter if we have one of the older lightsticks
anyone selling a melb ticket sat
nope! you can bring v1 or 2

Whats the safest way to buy resold tickets. Is shared tickets to you the way to go?
Yup, give the seller your email or phone number and they’ll share the ticket via the Ticketek app
but in that way they can recall it right? With strangers better to go through platform
Yes, however I’m not sure that there is a way of reselling a ticket that permanently changes the owner unless you resell using Ticketek’s marketplace
omg 2 more days 4 the sunday peeps ahhhh
but via platforms at least you can get your money back
C u blinks on Sunday
ayooo lessgooo
my flight got delayed but it's okay 🙃
okay that's concering
dw um try to keep yourself entertained??
hopefully you'll find something to do
Oh man, that sucks! Is it a domestic flight? Seems to be a big problem over here 😅
Hope you’ve managed to find something to do!!
yep 🫠
ive been watching kpop vids on my laptop
okay that’s something
watch uncle roger reviewing jamie Oliver’s egg fired rice
you will laugh
lmao okay
Which airport at your flying out of? Does it have anywhere for you eat/chill out at?
YAAAYAYAYYAYAYAYA 
Oh god damn 
jamie olive oil
hullo blinkies 
I saw ticketek still releasing tickets it looks availability but I cannot buy, maybe you could try
Someone said they usually release tickets during afternoon
the concert should be good
i tried to get tickets from fansale, presale and everything but i could only get a GA for Sydney (i live in melb)
so i just bought flights and accom to go up there lmao
and now i get a melb tick the day before the gig
i guess i'll just go to both
There are still some tickets available now via ticketet if others want them.
Has blackpink arrived in melb???
EVERYONE EXCITED FOR TOMORROW!
It’s a 10+ hour flight from Korea to Australia, so they could still be in the air.
HELL YEAH
What time should I arrive at the venue?
ive never been to a concert before so pls take what i say w a grain of salt but id say it depends. if you want merch probs earlier. if you want a lightstick the earlier the better. if you just want to get to your seat im pretty sure gates open at six so probs around then :)
w the lightstick i say that bc my friend saw skz and by the time she got to the front of the line light sticks were gone and im pretty sure they got there around gate time or a bit before
It also depends on how long you feel comfortable standing around/queuing to get in to the venue etc.
oh thats very true. i didnt think of that
literally giggling knowing tmrw ill wake up and bp will most likely be in the country and ill be seeing them that night
i feel so grateful it feels like a once in a lifetime opportunity considering kpop artists dont always come here
It's so exciting isn't it!! 😄
She said on WeVerse she was feeling well.
okay that’s something!
im happy for rosé only cuz its her country and hopefully she’ll make the most of it 
sorry to change the topic
but we haven’t really talked abt thai
*this
WTS a single GA ticket for tomorrow show.
Yes I hope she’s fully recovered and can preform the best she can 
Yea ur def right
I usually come to concerts around that time
Blackpink Australia merch is being shown on their instagram story FYI
TYY I was waiting for some kind of announcement
🙂
I hope I don't have any delays tomorrow... I could miss the concert 😅
Welcome to melb 👏🏻
Damn no light sticks?
I'm assuming there will be... but this looks like Australia specific merch? (Some of the items have "World Tour Australia" on it.)
be warned, there's delays everywhere atm, the whole air control system went down today
Uh oh... Fingers crossed it I am safe tomorrow 😅 I'm cutting it a bit fine...oops! aha
Hoping they do have lightsticks 
WELCOMEEE 
they were seen in sydney!!
OMG
Does anyone know if they’ll be selling light stocks at the merch booth?
Anyone know what they selling at merch booth melb
cotton on x blackpink collab part 2 is out now btw
Check their insta story 
It’s our weekend!! 🥳🥳🥳
O whatttt
Rose better be in melb 🥹
Go home town ✊️
she’s officially in melb!
pretty sure that’s what everyone said
she got covid first of june, so she should be better by now? unless yg entertainment says to stay home
Rose maybe singing Coming Home?
Someone should buy me spot in the merch line 🤣
i got 15th in line for pink pit 😻
Left right?
I’ll pay someone $100 to get me a hoodie and send it to Perth lol
when did people start lining up?
The earliest I know of was 10pm last night!
wild
well you get a number so u can leave and come back to ur spot but i was there at 8am
that's cool
yess
they did that for my sister when she overnight queued for the 1975
damn
but yeah it’s not very surprising now im pretty sure it happened to billie eilish’s tour last yr and skz as well
blackpink day 1 d day hows everyone feeling 🤘🏼
sweet jesus
They don't check names on the tickets right?
That was just for Tickettek to send the texts?
i don’t think so?
They might check name for the VIP tickets
is anyone trading kandi today?
Nah they’ll just scan the QR code
They couldn’t care less about the name usually
went to happy town!
I’m seeing so many people wearing Blackpink merch at the airport, whooo! 🥳
Nop
Is cottonon still open tdy
its open but no bp merch
does anyone know if there's any fan projects going on like free photocards and stuff
These have just popped up on Twitter.
i just got one of the welcome back rosé ones 🥰
I don’t think I’ll be able to get to the venue until 4pm so I hope they still have one 😅
awwww u got a bit, never been to happytown but would love to go one day
i don’t think im the only one that’s not been to happytown but it’s okay one day it’ll happen
Is it busy at the arena?
I’m sure people would love them ☺️
don’t ever be scared, they will like it and if they show hate to it just don’t get it into you
move away from them and ask someone else :))
Everyone is there for Blackpink so I’m sure they’ll all be hyped ☺️
Cant wait for tmr 
GOOD HAUL
i saw someone on tt take an album and a pen/sharpie to a concert incase they run into the artist in the street or smth. if you want to and can you should. never know when an autograph opportunity could come up 💪🏼
i’m pretty sure this light stick i got is fake
although someone said on reddit the “limited edition” v2s have issues

it lights up and i can wave it around at least
There are light sticks on sale at all of the merch desks in and outside of the venue
Oh thank god I’m getting there pretty early tmr so hopefully I can get one 
They’ve put aside stock for tomorrow too, so you should be good. They have merch stores inside and outside the venue that open at all different times too, depending on your ticket type.
thank the lord
okie so is 7:30 a good time to get to rod laver? ik doors open at 6:30 but too many ppl r gonna b there which kind of concerns me i don’t wanna be in that kinda cue or pushy crowd if yk what i mean
TYSMM :with different artists sometimes the layout or types of merch is a but diff so I wasn’t sure ur an angel :)))
No worries. I’ll try to answer any questions I can 🙂
Hey Blinks just a question about the Lisa print money we were given.
Is there a specific time in her solo performance where we throw the money ? ♥️
i didnt get any print money :((
Can anyone that bought merch confirm which brand they went with
If it’s AS colour or Gildan
lotsa blinks in the city
The venue is tiny compared to some of the other venues they’ve played this tour!!
For anyone wondering ab the vip gift link—> twt https://twitter.com/Clarievia/status/1667405772601593856?t=EcpHJHktfp95oLxMPM6RyQ&s=19
cool
nice!
Can’t wait for the vids on Twitter
i hope everyone going tonight has the best time ever! i can't wait to see the vids and the set list
The girls are in a good mood ☺️ They were so playful in the soundcheck
How busy are the mech stalls?
Right now, they are super quiet.
(At least the ones inside the venue)
has anything sold out
i’m slowly headed in
i was at BAM fighting game tournament
someone recognised my blink lightstick
Nice Ty!
Nah, everything is still on sale. It might have sold out in one of the merch booths, but keep walking around the venue, there is so many!
coolies
last tour i was with a pack of people running around the tents trying to get a lightstick lol
in the rain
That sounds chaotic 😂
my feet hurt so much
Same 😂 I’ve had to go and sit down before the main show starts lol
same i got barricade so i’m just sitting against it 😭
Nice! That’s a solid effort! I was just stood in the middle of the pit so ran away for some food 😂 I’ll be back in soon!
Does anyone have a photograph or smth of the merch they were sellingg
scroll up fam
not sure if that’s all of it tho
tonight
blackpink
are in our area
where’s this GA entrance
the right side
i figured it out
of the main entrance
the right side wouldn’t let me in
they’re playing music videos in here!
but there was another cheeky entrance
that happened to me as well
haha
very different to twice
last tour was so chill to get in and close
so packed out now
yep
Yeah, it got busy ahahaha
Does anyone know how vips get merch
This as well
Is there a merch list?
Can you still buy light sticks once get into arena?
Yes
ggs
can’t post pics in here?
i scooped up one of the lisa bucks y’all throwing around lol
it’s pretty scuffed but good souvenir
i cant seem to post pics in here
caus i’m new or it’s banned
lightsticks defs sold out now lol
but i got a manly pink hoodie
what?thought ppl said there are heaps, hope they will restock light sticks for tomorrow
i couldn’t get one after show but i was expecting as much
oh now i can post pics
Still heaps of light stick at the merch store
I also saw light stick rental
That was outside the venue
i went to that store that was like inside a building after you leave
i’ll just grab one in sydney
they definitely sold plenty lol
Is there any vips?
What’s the process of getting the bracelets for the 499 699 etc today?
blinks throwing the boxes away? or are they not allowed in the venue?
They are just throwing boxes away
couldnt be me. id be collecting those up after the concert lmao
lotsa people on this train still have the boxes
they just didn’t wanna wield them during the gig i guess
hehe the normies on this train
“why do they all have pink heart hammers”
this jisoo face
They kept merch back for tomorrow. They’ll be restocked.
Also, what a gig. Wow! My body is broken but my heart is so happy ☺️
❤️
the lisa money solo was crazy lol
they CRANKED the bass
was rattling my skeleton
What’s the start/end time for today
I took so few photos haha. Lived in the moment!
It started just before 9pm (running late) and finished around 10:35pm
Thanks! What seat did you have? It’s looks like VIP1?
Yeah, I was on the floor. Right pit. No seats there, just standing.
YOUR SEATS OH MY GOD
if you heard someone scream dkwtd at the wrong time during the first pre chorus that was me LMAO
I did think of you when they played it after the conversation the other day, but don’t worry, I didn’t hear any wrong lyrics 😂
Do you think vip1 is better than the spots facing the extension stage?
They probably spend a tiny little bit more time on the main stage than the extension stage, but honestly anywhere around the stage (including the extension) will give you a great view and close up opportunities. They are very good at including all fans!
LMAO STOP im very grateful tbh
im sure everyone around me was like 😭
I mean, if Lisa forgets her lyrics in the middle of Boombayah, you’re allowed to sing at the wrong time 😝
REAL
Had a great time! Only downsides was that it was a bit short and they removed some of my favourite bp songs, playing with fire and hard to love lol
Yeah, gutted about the loss of PWF! I don’t understand why! The crowd seemed to love it when it came up on the video screen before the show 😅
i'm glad we got As If It's Your Last
U remind me of the person behind me
Where were u sitting
wha
im seeing them today!
I can't believe the played dwtd im hope they include that
and pwf!!
should be a good time!
whos going to the concert todayyyy🤗
Meeeeee as well
yayyy lets all have fun tonighttt im going as well hopefully everyone will be able to do the oceans for their solos today🥹🤍

Day two, let’s goooo! ☺️
im not at the arena but do u reckon merch will still be there?
ima b there at 7 ish
im really worried
They had loads of merch left at 7pm yesterday 🙂
Just remember there is a big merch store outside of the venue but then lots inside the venue as well, so if one doesn’t have your size/item, have a walk around to the others.
okie fingers crossed tho
thank u ur a legend don't forget that
ooo nice!!!
VIP 
luckyyy im in the seats🥰
I still haven’t been able to process that it’s today
the concert u mean?
Ye 
Oh damn hoping it’s the best one yet 
it should be
To get merch listen to this
Don’t wait outside in the big line
Go inside and walk down
There’s 4 merch stores and there’s less people the further u go
The 3rd one had no one
There was plenty of stuff when Ieft
im actually not at the arena yet will be there somewhere in the evening
And I was there nearly till the end
really? damn
They also probably had more stuff there a lot of light sticks also
i was shocked about that tbh
lightsticks are expensive as
or should i say eggspensive
lol
Omg my girlfriend broke mine 5 minutes after I bought it
It still works
But something came off
no … sherlock
I’ll get another later when I buy the recent album
I’ve got every album except the recent one
I hate it but I need to
ur not alone
This is the life I’ve chosen
HAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAH SAME
i wonder what vce subjects rose did back at her school 🤔
I always regret buying them then the next day I’ll buy another
Surely drama
Did u go to the skz concert???
ur not wrong kinda thought it’d be law or science i heard something abt it idk lol
i wish… they’ll come back tho
I can see that
i would also see twice but ik like 12 of their songs
Same
Ik like every twice song that has a music video
And that’s it
I love ive now
Ye

Mee
Lots of people from here going today ☺️
i hope everyone seeing blackpink today has a great time !! have fun and stay safe everyone 🫶🏼🫶🏼
where was this? @flint pewter
hmmm Melbourne Central i think??
near myer
Merch wise, the only thing that has sold out is the beanie I believe
damn
Do they give you batteries for light sticks or you have to buy yourself?
They’ve give you them
okay thank you
im gonna be there around 5-5:30 to get some merch
At that time, you’ll only be able to use the outside merch stores as the main doors won’t be open yet, but there will also be stores inside the venue when you are able to enter 🙂
lining up to enter rn!
Have a good time next door 🙂
Have fun tonight guys!
Have fun blinks, be loud and dance around for the girls ♥️
pleasee more photo and video
Wow it is chaos outside haha
Is it? How so?
It has just got very busy inside!!
There’s a Babymetal concert next door at Margaret Court Arena so everyone’s confused about the queues and slowing them down
Ahhh yeah! Crazy to have them both at the same time 😅
lmaooo yeah i’m headed to babymetal in my pink blink hoodie
SLAY LOVE THE REPRESENTATION 🙏🏼 i hope you have a good time btw !!
HAVE FUN BLACKPINK DAY TWO GOERS
Jennie sit out diring soundcheck, came back the start of the show but left during LSG.. hoping for her fast recovery 🥺
apparently she got food poisoning
Jisoo was also limping coz of her ankle injury 😮💨😭
NO i hope they’re both ok oh my god thats devastating :(
hopefully they get to rest for a while now
What a show though!! ☺️
good show good show!!!
is it confirmed?
Yeah
By whom? Thanks
OMG TYE SHOW WAS AMAZING
I hope Jennie is okay she was there for like 1 and a half songs
if you heard someone screaming lisa all the time that was me
sad jennie wasnt there but her health is important hope she gets better 
How long was d2
The show length?
what row were you?
section 18 row r
Yeah, they were late out both nights haha.
There was more talking yesterday though, so it went on a bit longer.
true true
yesterday was so good
what section were you in???
the set list 4 the concert were a little bit out of place imo
The pit 🙂
omg nice
if you heard someone screaming for lisa like omfg
i was going wild
and lisa didn't do her pole dance
i was very wanting to see jennie performing her single but she couldn’t aw
yea what happened??
i have no idea actually
me too i was looking forward to jennies performance the most
everyone sitting near me was a jisoo or rose stan, the people next to me were asking everyone who their bias was
She started getting tired at the end of the Saturday show
do any of you have a jennie you and me performance you can dm me
I have very minimal footage of my own as I wanted to enjoy the show through my own eyes, but I will be looking on YouTube later so if I find anything I will let you know 🙂
thanks!
lol i was kinda the same seeing the show with my own eyes and filming it at the same time
Were they selling light sticks
Yes they were $90
So many people had them it was beautiful

Wow 🤩
We were silent for like 1 sec 💀😭
Ikr but at least it was for 1 sec
LISAS CHARISMA IS AMAZING AND HER ENERGY DURING HER SOLO OMGGGG
and we could even keep silent for 2 sec 😭
does anyone know if theyre going to post the photo they take at the end of the show?
I think they’ll post it pretty soon 
tbh i thought we did a pretty good job considering 
hey everyone was excited for her to perform
Yeah but the everyone silent part tho🥲
it was good
Honestly I just think everyone was so excited they just couldn’t keep silent 
What I recorded(ye ngl we were loud 💀)
ooh she had a different outfit then day 1
olg u went
so luckyy
i wasn’t allowed
is this day 1 or day 2?
ahh i went day one !!
Too bad Jennie wasn’t feeling bad day 2 :((
i knoww i hope she has a fast recovery!
Ye for the few songs she was on stage for she wasn’t smiling and looked really tired 
Welp I hope u enjoyed the concert all of them were giving it their 100% 
Yesss I love hard to love sm disappointed I didn’t get to hear it live 😭
1
wasnt feeling well?
didnt she got food poisoned 
Ye because of the food poisoning 
one day you will get ur chance to see them live!
Rosé's stans were always bound to be the majority in Melbourne. They wouldn't even come to Melbourne if not for her.
Lisa's fans can't keep their mouths shut periodt 🤣
I was also pretty disappointed at the crowd on the floor, everyone was just standing still and filming the girls the whole time rather than dancing and enjoying themselves
So true
glad Rosie made them come :))
Yess the power lisa holds everyone literally screams their heart out for her
Ye some people were just filming I filmed only some of it and made sure to live in the moment and not worry too much about recording 
Me too !! I was the only one dancing and singing in my area in blink deluxe 🤣
This was pretty much what it looked like with the people around me
Honestly it is better when u just have fun and dance 
but i might not
if they don’t renew their contract

I saw tiktok videos and 90% of the stadium was sat down, not moving, and just filming
I even saw a video of 2 people sleeping and people texting during the concert
and the standing pit werent barely moving or jumping, and were just standing and filming
Was it really like that? If t was, I feel so sorry for the real blinks who wantesd to enjoy and dance
I would say it was an unusual crowd, at least compared to what I’ve experienced at a lot of other gigs. But also it didn’t stop me from having a good time. I was able to dance, enjoy and singalong. The pit also wasn’t overcrowded, which was lovely!!
And I’d say everyone still enjoyed it. The girls got a great reception from everyone, regardless of where they were and whether they were filming or not.
I was in that area in a different BP gig and to be fair it's very hard to dance in that area. It also gets super hot and those streamers they drop really try to choke people 😅
Seems like most of the crowd present were Asian from the photos online. Maybe a lot of them travelled to see them and could be just a cultural thing that they behaved like that. The people sleeping at a concert yeah can't really justify that 😅 It takes a toll on the body though.
I was geniunly shocked... the 3 people in the videos I saw sleeping
were holding a lightstick,
like, why are they spending money for lightstick, merch and concert.. if they are just gonna sleep
like wth
i somewhat agree, the crowd could have been louder
i was screaming as hell during the performance so that’s actually something
but yeah some people gotta be really careful abt whether they want to spend their money going to a live show or not
it was like half half, to be fair it was pretty squished so sometimes it was hard to even jump without knocking someone’s arm up
other than that i was screaming the whole show but i remember like maybe one or two more people screaming with me
ngl, only 1 or 2 is sad.. I went to barcelona, every single person in my section was screaming, dancing, jumping, and basically going crazy
and basically nobody had their phones out in standing or in my section
In my section, I only ever saw 3 phones
i think that was part of the problem tbh
my gf and i would film up till the end of first chorus and then enjoy the rest
cause what’s the point of paying all that money to not live a little
The saddest part from the videos ive seen, the seated section were filming less than standing VIP...
at the end of the day though concert experience should all depend on how you felt and i had a good time
yeah i guess it’s just cause vip has a higher chance of interaction with the girls
Oh 100%, but if im spending 1100€ on a ticket... i guarantee I aint standing filming lol
id argue to film a little bit every now and then
cus when I film, I look more at my phone than actually with my eyes
but not the whole concert
so I try avoid filming, makes me miss the show
I am only saying this now, because I did film quite alot in barcelona, first kpop conmcert, first concert of my life..
is realized I filmed too much
missed quite a bit
so when I go to Paris next month, gonna film alot less
Learned from my mistakes
it could also be that too
yeah i didn’t realise it but i filmed quite a bit too but i still had fun
100% I had an amazing time
from seeing them on youtube and on a screen for 3 years
to seeing them irl
nothing can beat it
i’m like doubting it but the context makes some sense
she might have seen me recording too so
yeah it’s such a surreal feeling
like wdym they’re real people
blackpink aren’t an international delusion?!?!?
and the phrase your idols are prettier in real life is so true
I was fanboying over Jisoo for 3 whole years
lol
so seeing her irl, made me think life was fake
jisoo was so adorable i swear
i was happy that she was performing again after missing out on osaka cause of covid
I am happy and proud of barcelona crowd... apparently alot of blinks and fans noticed, Jisoo looked super happy and having alot of fun
barcelona was the best crowd up until that point
London was a flop.
in terms of crowd
oh really?
Yea, london was the worst of european dates
People were sitting down, on their phones
oh what the hell
that’s actually terrible
I even saw a video, of 2 girls standing up, when act 2 started, and 4 fans behind them
told the girls to sit down your blocking the view
at least with melbourne they didn’t tell us at all it was a straight up vibe
also bruh
I was worried, people in abrcelona were gonna stay sat down.. but even before the acts started everyone stood up
so I had a huge sigh of relief there
Well, barcelona we got 4 encore songs lol.. since we were so loud
i think seated seats choose to sit down in melb because i heard that the arena foundations aren’t that stable? but idk if that holds any merit to it
I mean, if the arena isnt stable.. it defo should not be holding concerts
if it cant withstand people jumping lol
yeah that’s also true
if it wasn’t the middle of our afl season right now the girls would 100% sell out marvel stadium
dayum
yeah i bet
and also marvel is like 3 times the capacity of rod laver
marvel 53,000 while rod laver is just under 15,000
On the note of selling out stadiums, I do want to congratulate TWICE on selling out the MetLife stadium.. first kpop group to do it
I saw very few Barcelona videos online and tbh that was probably a good sign!
Yea I noticed.. its hard to find barcelona vids
i was really sad when we didn’t get hard to love
Oh you didnt? 😮
cause i could have sworn that was in the set list
Yea, we got it
yeah rosie only did gone and otg
but tbh, idk whats happening with the setlist at this point
I tyhought Lisa remix, Jennie remix, Rose GONE, and all that
was the ENCORE special setlist
It's also terrible for people trying to see the show. Bad enough if there's someone tall in front of you but when they all start holding up a sea of phones that sucks.
yeah
yeah my gf and i are lucky we got barrier cause she wouldn’t have been able to see anything cause she’s 5ft tall
oof.. 5ft is a risk for standing
super lucky yall got barrier
im 182cm (6ft) and I never got standing,
- I like having a seat reserved
- I like having my personal space, not being pushed
- I like being able to sit down during interludes
- I hate standing for 2 hours
lol
here’s a list of songs i noticed that were missing
- happiest girl
- you never know
- almost everything from square up and kill this love albums
- love to hate me (i really wanted to hear this live)
Only time I will ever do standing, is if I buy VIP, and get barrier..
^^ we didnt get any of those I think
dont think those were ever on the setlist
yeah that’s my thought process
damn
then again the performed majority of those the first time they came here
except stuff from the album onwards
I wouldnt mind them replacing Stay with Happiest girl tho
I wanted to record those kind of moments but tbh I'm glad I didn't. When I went to see them and they came over to our section it was so cool to lock eyes with them. I will never have evidence of it in a recording but it was a good memory.
yeah me too
I like stay, but ive hard it live too many times
yeah same
Happiest girl made me cry, and still does to this day
yeah that’s completely valid too
i just want to defend the people who do record cause everyone has their own approach to the same thing
100%, but I cant defend people who record the entire concert
and i just wanna make people understand that
yeah i can’t defend that
like they must be fun at parties
i’m not spending like 4 pay checks to get pink pit to record the whole damn thing
Legitttt
Im still confused why they removed Send-offs for VIP's
I did not see a single video of them singing The Happiest Girl live on tour now that you mention it.
i’m gonna get one or two photos and i’m gonna be screaming every lyric while waving my lightstick
they stopped doing them after euorpe
THATS WHAT I WANNA KNOW TOO
cause they did that in 2019
but all vip gets now is priority and soundcheck
they stopped
that’s so strange
tbh though most kpol groups have removed hi-touch events in general
Why can't they just do more? I mean they have the ability but they only keep their shows 1 hr 30 mins long
kpop**
Like, now there isnt any different between the most expensive and 2nd expensive VIP... Normally the most expensive got Send.off and picture on stage
yeah
like, there is not point for 3 vips now.. if the most expensive is the same as the 2nd
all good though we got a blackpink bag
worth it
I'm wondering which continent has the most fun concerts USA, Europe, Asia, or Aus?
Europe and Asia, defo.. Paris, barcelona, erlin were the best and loudest in europe
and Asia, well
Manila
cannot beat manila
manila is probs num,ber 1
lol
yeah filo blinks are crazy
If I ever go to a kpop concert in asia.. it will be Manila
I cant do a Korean one, cus Idk the fanchants I just sing to entire song
yeah helps that it’s my mum’s home town
In Japan they banned the phones, if they didn't maybe it would've been different
koreans are very relaxed during concerts
I mean, maybe its me, but I think banning phones completly is a bit of a stretch
we banned cameras in barcelona
like Canons
but phones well no
yeah i think that’s a bit overkill
my gf and i are going to baek yerin tonight however and it’s a no phone or camera event
so im interested to see how that would play out
I wouldn't do Manila fans seem a bit too crazy there. No offense I like passionate but jumping on cop cars was too much. Europe has passionate but chill vibes. What about USA what do you think?
maybe the LA crowd for us
USA, is in between imo
I cant put USA in one either
some USA crowds were louddd, some were ok,
USA is like half half i reckon
Gf who likes kpop, thats vibes right there
You won at life
lol
yeah that’s how we bonded haha
Makes sense. I'm not surprised BP returned to Paris for the Encore though, Paris is like a forum for Kpop and a good vibe crowd
Paris fanbase are annoying europe tho
they are treating this a french concert
forgetting its for europe
we met because she had an irene pfp it’s so funny thinking about it
The special event they are planning only allows:
french people and french speaking
and we need to make a french flag during stay..
alot of europe is angry lol
They were always for Europe, everyone in Europe travels around for concerts.
i meant oof**
where did you meet?
autocorrect
discord? 😮
yeah through disc
that’s one way to exclude everyone i guess
tell me about it..
exclude everyone, except french
well done, you have now annoyed europe
like we’re all part of the same team idk why we can’t just get along
When the hardcore fansites start getting involved and trying to control things sometimes it ruins it. Maybe the encore won't be as good for reasons like that.
They are planning to play a specail thank you video, in french
sorry, with a frenbch accent
okay but how
in english
thats why only french people, they want the french accent
like bruh
That hasnt been approved by the concert organizer yet anyways
still pending
they probably would have to review the message
I mean, I lovethe idea of playing a thank you video, but why french accent.. just let us all, do it..
then you get spanish, english, french, italian accents
full global, but they are treating this a french concert
it could easily be a collaboration project for european blinks
but it sounds very gatekeeped
it is.. they posted saying ''we arent excluding you''
and our part is to record us singing part of a song
well thats not including us either lol
but that’s exactly what they’re doing
tbh, I am kinda terrified
im going to Paris alone, i dont speak a word of french
and I need to find my way to my airbnb at 22:30 when I arrive
at Orly
im stressing already
when is the concert btw
15th July
all the french you need
We planned the lightstick coliur thing for solos too
I just hope the 75,000 people all comply
and do it
lol
lol yeah i hope so too
if not ill change my colour
and yell at people to do it
lol
once a few people start doing it
hopefully it will spread
btw i recently got my lightstick and the only other colour i can change it to is blue
but i’ve seen some with like orange and green
is there a tutorial vid out there or something
If you have Lightstick V2, all you need to do is
1.Turn lightstick on
2.Open Blackpink lightstick app
3.Double tap the power button on the lightstick until it blinks blue (to get it into bluetooth mode)
4.In the app, connect to the lightstick
ahhh
I made a short video for someone else, 🙂
Likewise 🙂 enjoy your day
You’re not allowed to stand if you’re in the seats. The security will come and tell you off. The only time we are allowed to stand is when the artist tells the whole stadium to stand
HUH??
Im sorry, but thats the most stupid rule ever
probably the first venue I have ever known to have a no standing up rule
Its impossible for me to enjoy a concert. sitting down.. that should be criminal wth
It blocks the view of other people
bruh
no other venue had this rule, because people stand up during concerts
and if you can stand and NEED to sit for the entire concert, you get disabled access seating,
atleast thats how all the other venues did it
I’m kinda glad I recorded some parts and stopped and enjoyed others i got to lock eyes with Rosé and Lisa so my life is complete now 
FR
I saw this girl dancing to the song on the stairs and security instantly shut her down 💀
Thats genuinely sad
so you aren't allowed to enjoy yourself at a concert in Melbourne. Cool. So never go to Melbourne for a concert then. I learned that
I mean it can be a safety hazard and the stairs are only meant for going up and down. I’ve been to multiple concerts in Melbourne every time the security is diff and the people that attended there change
I mean, 90% if not all other venues on the tour allowed people to stand up in seated zones
to dance, and stuff
Ye I’m just talking ab the stairs at other concerts when I was in a seat I stood up at certain points 
Good, standing up is the whole point of a concert lol
so its still shocking to me Melbourne banned it
Definitely
lol
Ye that’s def weird cuz I stood up at the skz concert in the same venue z😭
exactlyyy
thats whats got me confused
other artists ive seen at that venue everyone is standing
but bp? not allowed?
bruh
Ye I have now idea what the security is doing
they should def let people get into it and enjoy the music. Not fall asleep 💀
Nah cuz how did they even fall asleep? The bass literally shook all my organs I couldn’t sleep even if I wanted to 
IKR
And the videos I saw the 4 people I saw sleeping
were full dressed in bp merch
with lightstick
like why are they falling asleep
i was just as confused
like MAYBEEE, someone who isnt a blink or never listened to kpop and went just cus his friend asked em too
i could see it getting boring, but a BLINK sleeping?
fake blink
Hope so
Ye 💀
No way after 3 years seeing them on YT, and I go to concert, and I am sleeping
not in a million years
Welp atleast many other people enjoyed it other than those who fell asleep
EXACTLYYY like no matter the artist I don’t think I could fall asleep
