I wonder why they changed it
prisma beacon
I wonder why they changed it
not enough people purchased tickets
teal dragon
Bro it’s the same with New York and I’m going to that one, I wonder if they will change it too
teal dragon
It’s Hulu theather

But still the biggest of all the arenas

I saw itzy there and felt very small

It’s Hulu theather at Madison sq garden

Not as small as reading tho

Sale is in 5 minutes

Due to demand for tickets, you may experience an extended wait time. We appreciate your patience.
a normal day in ticket master
so the question is do I still go top row or do I try to get closer for this one
can probably find some good earplugs between now and monday
vague mulch
Is anyone in, or is it still on the "Tickets are about to become available...sit tight." screen for you all?

I got that, then I got redirected to >Tickets are sold out now. Check back soon.

SHIT I feel bad
grave bramble
realized I wasnt logged in, then logged in, and now I'm on that screen again

looks like because I was top row before I'm locked to the high up seating

alright so we shouldnt be buying tickets right now

Based on the MMT Twitter, it says existing tickets will be converted

I'm glad I stopped myself

Im so confused on where to pick to get a nice a view

sorry if I misinformed anyone

I wish they had converted the tickets before reopening sales
prisma beacon
i didn’t pay to see siyeon in 4k to get moved back farther
vague mulch
And in my case a friend transferred me the ticket so I don’t know if that’s gonna affect it
torpid chasm
The whole point of this venue is that they are ok with not selling out... but.. I guess the ticket sales were truly awful
prisma beacon
well now i guess if i have a specific seat i don’t need to get there super early :/
grave bramble
theres a difference between not selling out and not selling half
we sold like 1900 seats out of 4.3k
I think this move is completely fair
grave bramble
Is this good<:IUcry:708064670086594641> <:IUfacepalm2:708066962974048327>
don't buy if you already have a ticket
prisma beacon
have your tickets been converted yet??
grave bramble
they're going to reassign the existing ones
silver shuttle
don't buy if you already have a ticket
I don’t have tickets yet
grave bramble
AH ok

If you already bought tickets def don't rebuy now all the ones available are far back balcony seats

yeah, if you dont have a ticket--waiit--im sure a lot of GA people will be selling and such

it's a small theater, I think most seats will be decent unless you have tall people in front of you

So if i bought a ticket i dont have to rebuy a new one?

you would think GA buyers will get best seats, but who knows. some of the seats were more expensive, but futher away
torpid chasm
short people specifically targeting row1s are gonna be pissed
did they sell out GA prior to the move?
tropic moss
I had one of the $200 tickets in the side section right next to stage before the first time the reconfigured the stage.
gentle forge
What a mess
prisma beacon
did they sell out GA prior to the move?
no

So, good news for GA buyers, more seats to work with. Imagine they give everyone row by row access in order of purchase

Wild wild scenes. Guess we’ll have a lot of swapping around to do

I only choose the Reading venue because the acoustics were good
new one will be better

It almost certainly will be better. No waiting for GA folks, and sloped floor is much better for everyone

I just dont understand how they’re going to decide where we’re going to sit based on the tickets we bought for Santandar

well I mean theres only one way to do it

And we won’t have to feel embarrassed about the turn out, nor will the members

yeah, i have to imagine this was in the cards the whole time... would be a huge risk to play somewhere where not selling out a big arena means a full cancel
steep mountain
I'm sure it was like this the last tour too, yes
this has an outsized size for what DC normally fills

I’m just surprised they still made a move so late. I thought that ship had sailed.

Obviously nervous about where my seats end up, but this is going to be a great show 🔮

This makes me re-evaluate the Reading stop of future kpop tours
I guess that depends on what other cities close to Reading a group plays

now i won’t have the raging anxiety of if i’m getting barricade or not
AND I CAN USE THE BATHROOM WITHOUT LOSING MY SPOT
torpid chasm
I think 30% of GA folks are gonna be insanely happy while 70% or so will be disappointed where they get slotted

im very excited, any negative emotions I feel right now are sympathy for pit people who want to be pit people

At the Reading date last time I did half the show jammed like a sardine up close a few rows back with a bunch of smelly people who literally spent the whole time recording and not dancing or singing.. then halfway through walked to the back of the pit and danced and rocked out and had like 1000x better time
That was the perk of Reading GA, imo, having space to move and enjoy it
gentle forge
This venue might be better since we’re not wrapped around
I was gonna have a side view at Santandar
ocean epoch
That was the perk of Reading GA, imo, having space to move and enjoy it
This will be just as good as Roxy, for all those reasons, except better because of the sloped floor
prisma beacon
This venue might be better since we’re not wrapped around
yup yup
torpid chasm
Yeah, this is a huge upgrade for most of the audience. A lot of GA people who were gonna camp or just preferred the floor type of show will be disappointed, but this otherwise a major step up
I think the pit was smaller for this show than last time, too, right? And they didnt even sell out this new smaller pit?
night veldt
Is the venue within waking distance to Doubletree?
grave bramble
its within walking distance to the other satandar arena so yes
torpid chasm
Last year DC had a half floor pit, LOONA did a 1/3 floor pit.. then new DC show year did the 1/3 pit, I think?
May only be like 100-200 people competing for the best seats at the new venue. Hopefully.
prisma beacon
selfishly hoping they do it in order of who purchased LOL
torpid chasm
If it's ~200 GA moving, we should all be in the first 10 rows
Depending on how they handle people who bought floor seats
night veldt
its within walking distance to the other satandar arena so yes
Okay thank you! I only reserved a place at doubletree because it was literally across the street from the arena.

I just noticed that after reading fully
So I’m guessing all the grey out seats are for the ones purchased already?
gloomy egret
I feel for those with ga tickets, but I'm gonna be annoyed if I get put far back after spending almost $300 per ticket.
grave bramble
sorry bout that I got scared and thought we had to rebuy
gloomy egret
I hope I still get aisle but I'll take having closer seats if I can get them
gentle forge
I have a feeling my $117 ticket will be put in the back before your $300 ticket
gloomy egret
People on twitter were saying the box office told them ga would get the first few rows
gentle forge
I read that too. I don’t know, its fair in the sense that they would have been the closest physically. But not in terms of price per ticket.
Thats why i think more expensive tickets like yours will be out closer than mine
Even though i had a great view in sec D on the right side of the stage when i bought it
crimson creek
wouldn't the base price for all ga be the same though?
so i don't think they could place it based on who paid more
gentle forge
I meant GA as opposed to seats
gloomy egret
I was originally in one of the first few rows in 104 then was moved to second row floor.
gentle forge
Ah, i just got moved a section over. It was wacky how they were putting people in floor seats.
gloomy egret
I was okay with floor because I was in the stands last concert, so I figured I'd give floor a try instead of trying to move seats.

steep mountain
I hope the girls don’t feel disappointed about the venue change 😢
I don't think so. Overall on the East Coast with more shows and more capacity they are doing better than the last tour 8.7k for 4 shows vs. 5k for 2 last tour
if they were underselling like Reading on all 4 shows that would be a concern but that isn't the case
you all probably saw how full the ATL arena was and that was near 2k
it'll be fine
gentle forge
👍
I think the Arena is just BIG
It was a nice place last year but this place looks nice
Next time, only East Coast stop at Reading to fill it up 😅
steep mountain
they definitely overperformed expectations at the Arena last July
gloomy egret
The arena is huge. I was surprised that it sold so well last time.
steep mountain
even I was surprised
yeah
well the thing is, an undersized NYC venue meant fans lost out on getting tix too
so they all bought t hem for Reading as those were guaranteed
this time DC is performing at MSG Hulu Theatre with twice the capacity and 1/3rd more sales
gentle forge
I know for me, after going to the NYC show i bought a free seat at Reading, and i spoke to others who did the same
steep mountain
so it's easy to see why people wouldn't do Reading again unless they were in a situation where they would be ok doing that
gentle forge
Its not exactly that easy to get to for many people

look at how many kpop acts went there over the summer

but philly is like a diff world
i've only been to reading and philly and the contrast is wild
gloomy egret
We took the no toll route all the way from Michigan on the way there. It took us so far out in the middle of nowhere that we took the tolls back.
steep mountain
I'm sure people might be worried about the tour's sales performance based on this but I'm not. Everything points to at least equivalent ticket sales from last tour
pale musk
Man I don’t even like Philly
crimson creek
yeah sometimes its cheaper to just do the tolls
gentle forge
look at how many kpop acts went there over the summer
Yeah. Its a really nice venue that happens to be in the middle of nowhere.
I mean, I was looking forward to going again. I still would, its a nice stadium.
crimson creek
esp with the cost of gas right now
crimson creek
yeeeeeeah
gloomy egret
How bad is gas in PA
crimson creek
i dunno, but it's still in the 3's up here in ct
gentle forge
Same for NJ
crimson creek
i love my mazda, but sometimes i miss my corolla. mpg was so much better
it also better not snow, because im decorating my car for the tour
if you see a blue cx-5 with REASON and dreamcatcher all over it, das me
gloomy egret
I'm glad we're taking my twins honda it would cost me a kidney for gas in my truck.

Man... The uncertainty about seating is not great. I had a decent seat on the center end of a floor section, now I have no idea where I'm ending up.
gloomy egret
I wish they had figured out seating changes before implementing them like they did when they migrated 2 sections.
modern flax
I get the venue change, even if I don't like it I understand. But the details matter. Like seats.
crimson creek
reading wasn't even full last year and it still felt like it was due to the energy
should have kept it as it was and just make sure to not go there next time
modern flax
Yeah. Really great group for last summer's show
analog hound
If only it wasn’t a Monday show maybe sale would of been better. But at the same time too many east coast option.
modern flax
Yeah, I think there are a lot of factors, last summer it was really the only east coast option other than NYC.

As advice, I would recommend someone here call the actual venue to get direct word on how things are changing.
prisma beacon
should i call the box office?
steep mountain
the problem is the box office only appears open on MWF from 10am - 4pm at (610) 898-7229. There's a post on Reddit from tier 1 ticketmaster support that lists a different number (610) 898-7469, but try both
the GA folks are understandably concerned but if they converted for CIX and the only difference is 2 days then they have to know they have to get it sorted before the weekend since the show is on Monday
crimson creek
even calling the box office seems to yield varying explanations
my friend called and was told something different from what someone else was told online
prisma beacon
what different explanations have you heard?
crimson creek
but her tickets in the app did change, no seats yet though
she was told seats would be randomly assigned even if you purchased multiple, which would suck since she bought both of ours and we'd still be seperated. then i read someone say they were told seats would be assigned but no specific seat reserved

My Reading ticket disappeared in the Ticketmaster app but still shows up as my old GA ticket for the Santander Arena when looking at the website in a browser. Guess it's probably because they're doing the ticket reassignments for the new venue

yea i’m in the 17th… 😀
doing it by pricing is stupid. they should have done it by the order of who was the closest

Guess I’ll just have to walk up to the front during the show and show the flag.🤷♂️ maybe then they’ll see it and I can lob it to them. 🤷♂️

that just makes the most sense.

I have (had) 2 pairs that for each of them I bought the adjoining seats separately

Man I’m not sure how pricing works typicslly, if set by the venue, group, or just ticketmaster
But prices for a lot of the performing arts is so much cheaper compared to what we had paid
prisma beacon
yep.
no hate to floor people obviously but i just find it ridiculous how they’re getting closer than GA
pricing tier just isn’t fair
pale musk
They should of
Idk
Done some partial refunds with that
prisma beacon
you PAID for floor. you payed to be that far away. GA paid to be close. that’s that.

yep
sorry i’m just a little salty with TM rn lol
pale musk
The one thing I looked at (for another thing as couldn’t see with dc except the few open seats) where I’m at says about 50 or so when we paid about a 100 per ticket
So unsure how pricing is determined but
sleek raven
I think pricing is set by the tour…person? company ? depending on venue and then tm adds their ridiculous plat premiums and fees on top of it
pale musk
I think it is yeah, just taking a look at some different things going on at the place
But with the change man tm could have done smth
sleek raven
tm is only trying to keep all their coins 🥲

they don’t give a shit who is where

Assuming this in reference to my seating change report, I didn't pay for floor. I got moved there after the stage reconfiguration. This was my original seat.

it’s always abt money.

oh no no not you
i’m in another server
sorry i didn’t mean to come off as though i was hating on you for being close😭 i was just sharing my disappointment about the fairness of the seating
slow gate
I bought my ticket for DC 2 nights ago out of impulse and I'm closer then my GA to seat change for this 💀
prisma beacon
ik i’ve said it a million times but this is just so messy 😭
austere sentinel
I don’t envy TM for this one. It’s impossible to move all the seats over and make everyone happy
tropic moss
sorry i didn’t mean to come off as though i was hating on you for being close😭 ...
no prob, I felt the same way when they moved my seat behind the pit after they moved the stage in, and they wouldn't let me exchange seats to get back into the stands. I ended buying another ticket which I don't need anymore now.

we were both floor 1 seated front row last year right?
imagine if we did that again this year LOL
it's so fucked but at the same time, people who chose those seats have probably never been close enough to the stage before, so it's a wonderful chance for them
prisma beacon
true
i’ve never been up close at a kpop concert💔
this is also my first time seeing dc lol
crimson creek
Row H isn't terrible as a seat in itself. what makes it terrible are the people who don't know how to hold their phones up at face level and extend their arms above their head inconsiderately
austere sentinel

I was like Floor row C last year so no matter what I’m closer this year
crimson creek
i think row H is probably the same distance as row aa which is what i was

this. i made a sign but i don’t think i’m gonna bring it:((
crimson creek
still had a blast from that distance but mostly because the gap between GA and Seated helped with the phone issues
prisma beacon
i’m in the middle of my row
prisma beacon
yep
oh whale
i’m just letting myself be upset about it today and i’ll get over it tmw lol
crimson creek
there's a seat in my row in ny that's available if you've got $300 to drop
row e sec 101
prisma beacon
all good
i’ve caved and decided to get vip lol
if i cant see my girls up close i might as well high five them LMAO
crimson creek
That's the spirit
you can probably carry your sign with one hand
and hifive them with the other
prisma beacon
true!!
do you think i’d be able to give siyeon my letter? i’m not sure if they’re allowed to recieve things at that time
crimson creek
i dunno you can try, but in ny in 2019 they didn't allow it
prisma beacon
hmmm okok
crimson creek
a guy behind me tried but i dunno if he was able to do it
prisma beacon
gotcha
crimson creek
maybe try and get at the end of the line
prisma beacon
ooooo smart!!!
crimson creek
you can go slower and they'll probably be more inclined to take it since no one is behind you
prisma beacon
that’s so so smart
crimson creek
i was in the back of the line in ny for the 2019 show and i got to chat with jiu for a little bit, was nice
crimson creek
im surprised i said anything coherent in korean
that eye smile is SO pretty in person
they're all so pretty
prisma beacon
my korean is meh but i’ll try my hardest lol
i’m good at typing it and reading
but when it comes to speaking and listening? YIKES
crimson creek
lmao, my listening is better than my speaking. i sound great by myself
in front of someone who can understand me?
fuck no
sigh, what a day
prisma beacon
me too

So, will people be able to transfer tickets again?
crimson creek
could be just misinformation, but i saw someone say tickets that were transferred went back to the original purchaser, so they'd have to be IF that's the case. It better not be though because people who bought tickets off someone else would get royally fucked. That person could decide to keep their money and the ticket
gentle forge

I believe that is the case, at least what I’m hearing from a friend. Transferred ticket went back to the original buyer, who’s saying tm wont let them transfer.
I’m hoping that it’s just because things are still being updated, but tomorrow or whatever when the apps update tickets will be transferrable.
Because yes, if they can’t be its going to be a disaster for some people
crimson creek
fingers crossed. because im sure a lot of people would get screwed in that case then they'd have an even smaller attendance
gentle forge
Yeah 🙁

ok sounds good
violet pier
i think in atlanta and dc it was from 3-5pm
Atlanta was 3-5 and merch opened at 3:15ish. Dreamcatcher was performing sound check during (about 5 songs) behind closed doors, so recommend getting there early
modern flax
With assigned seats there's not much worry about getting there too early so once you're checked in for VIP you can probably wander back to the hotel, have dinner, whatever. At least, that's my plan
violet pier
With assigned seats there's not much worry about getting there too early so once...
We did that for Atlanta after you couldn’t hear soundcheck anymore and ran all the fan gifts ppl brought to car. Less to carry
modern flax
Yeah, with basically a "no bags" policy at the venue I'm trying to carry very little - mongmongi with no extension, and nothing else that won't fit in my pockets.
prisma beacon
wait can i still bring my clear bag??
modern flax
Yeah they allow clear bags
modern flax
But I don't have any clear bags, I've never actually even seen a clear bag anywhere, and a ziplock (like they suggest) is functionally useless because you then have to carry it in your hands normally anyway so there's no point
Half tempted to shove a folded drawstring bag in my cargo pants pocket for the walk back to the hotel after the show
pale musk
Most I’ve seen you have to order off Amazon or smth

percentage of people going to print their tickets before the concert is tiny, this is going to be a shitshow
pale musk
Oh god

shitshow intensifies
modern flax
Oh wow... I don't even have a printer
torpid chasm
- Turn your printer on and make sure it has paper. It is always good to double-check.

Oh that’s a lot
I was just thinking once you get the email with the tickets
I would assume it could be scanned on your phone via the email
pale musk
Ahhh what I was worried about is happening, my mom saying about a refund
N o I am going
I’m either blind or they didn’t actually send the tickets yet

I hope it’s not mandatory
tropic moss
I don't see why you couldn't just open the pdf on your phone instead of printing it.
torpid chasm
worst case, it's because this venue operates like 2003 and doesnt have scanners
and is like tearing tickets
honor system lol
tropic moss
I requested a refund for the extra ticket I bought. Let's see if it goes through.
torpid chasm
where was the seat?

Orch L Row U

That was a side section seat after they moved the stage forward. I bought it because they moved my original ticket to floor behind pit.

It's after 8pm so they prob won't respond until tomorrow.
