Chicago, IL (Radius, March 10th, 2023)

[fluid canopy]

How late are you???

I don’t mind waiting 15 minutes longer for the rest to appear

Lol I’m the only girl so far I feel weird

[silent gate]

We're still stuck in traffic

[magic sage]

I'll join you tomorrow

[fluid canopy]

Whennnn

[sick fiber]

There were two girls who checked in in front of us who had Dreamcatcher shirts so maybe try and grab them if they come back down?

[fluid canopy]

We are waiting till 6:30

[silent gate]

Yeah I'm no where near don't wait up for me

[fluid canopy]

Awwww

[silent gate]

[magic sage]

If my flight isn't delayed because of weather I'll be in Chicago at 7:30 am tomorrow

[lone cipher]

Good luck. We're all counting on you

Just spam Airplane from Summer Holiday

[magic sage]

Wah that's a lot of pressure

[lone cipher]

I'll say it every two hours

[sick fiber]

Headed downstairs

[heavy junco]

Don't make gah cry

[fluid canopy]

Come here we gonna go to Bonchon

[little stream]

Anyone willing to buy vip pit 1 tickets if i don’t go tomorrow. I have 2.

[scarlet lichen]

fml

i wouldn't have make it in time anyways

even for $470+ flight tickets

[fluid canopy]

@heavy junco

[heavy junco]

[fluid canopy]

Kimchi fried rice is good!

What rice do you guys like?

Lol relaying orders through discord

[heavy junco]

How much

[fluid canopy]

Ayo come to our VIP1 crew

[heavy junco]

Probably can't afford it not enough time between shows if I had another week I could of

[little stream]

Around 300

Per ticket

[lofty raptor]

Guys, guys

We're less than 24 hours away

[scarlet lichen]

good deal imo if i was there with a ticket

[stoic juniper]

the anticipation is killing me

[nimble timber]

How early are people in VIP 1 thinking of going?

[lofty raptor]

Im getting there when I get there at this point since I'm driving up tomorrow afternoon

[craggy sundial]

nobody knows. The inclement weather is highly likely to discourage some people but there are definitely going to be some folks that will try lining up at 6:30am

that was last summer

now? 38 degrees with snow showers and wind? We'll see

because check-in for both VIP and for M&G will probably be at 3pm I would expect VIP holders to mostly be in linne by late morning to early afternoon

[nimble timber]

Yea on one hand barricade would be nice, on the other the weather is gonna suck so idk

My only stop so I might just yolo it

[craggy sundial]

if you're not used to the weather around here you'll basically just get sick

and worse yet you risk getting the group sick if you get VIP/VVIP :p

[nimble timber]

Came in from Michigan so it's not too different

[craggy sundial]

yeah then it's not too bad. The problem is that we're as far west that you don't get full lake effect wind but it will still suck

[nimble timber]

Can't be worse than Louisville last summer. That line started at 9pm the night before, rained and then got humid during the day

[craggy sundial]

those people were insane

and were lucky the venue did not boot them for literally tent camping

if I see a tent out there for this venue the night previous, good luck in that neighborhood with that weather, lol

I think because the overnight will be some kind of snow we won't see people til like early morning. Maybe.

[nimble timber]

Yea Louisville venue is almost already set up for tenting. We only stayed in line cause our Airbnb was right next door and could take shifts

I'm just gonna go in the morning tomorrow

[fluid canopy]

There’s a shrimp in the water

[craggy sundial]

that's generally the consensus in this portion of the fandom

[fluid canopy]

Mistakes were made

[craggy sundial]

I'm probably personally goingn to be there mid to late morning, maybe.

noon at the latest

kinda depends on a morning errand I have to run

[silent gate]

Omg

I finally made it

[magic sage]

Congrats!

I can't wait to meet you all tomorrow

[scarlet lichen]

u gonna eat that?

looks not deveined

[lone cipher]

Oh man that shrimp was tasty

[scarlet lichen]

i've seen a fly take a dip and take some olympic laps

but never that

[fluid canopy]

You want it?

[scarlet lichen]

shoot, i'll it eat tbh, just water

[lofty raptor]

I mean shrimp come from water anyway?

[scarlet lichen]

freshwater shrimp exist too

[stoic juniper]

i think i’m gonna lineup at like 12

[heavy junco]

I lined up at 11 last year and was like 3-4 rows back

[stoic juniper]

it all depends on when my friend gets to my house but no way am i waiting in the snow

[craggy sundial]

if anyone is there earlier just send pictures of the venue and line

[craggy sundial]

yeah see, because VIP Pit 1 is so large but the ticket numbers were small, I think folks will be fine unless they super really want barricade

your view will be good no matter what

phones and recorders and lightsticks aside :p

[heavy junco]

That was the sf stop so I dunno how it was in Chicago

[magic sage]

I came at 2pm last year and was barricade for pit 2. But watched a lot of the show through phones

[scarlet lichen]

then u got towering tree ppl to worry about

[heavy junco]

Yerin

[craggy sundial]

that's every standing show

[craggy sundial]

people can't help being tall, guys

[heavy junco]

I know

I'm not actually upset

[craggy sundial]

as a personal opinion, if I could afford to go to every show and be front, but someone couldn't see I'd probably move so they could, or even give up my spot

but that's at my discretion

since I could just go to another show annd be fine

[heavy junco]

That one guy last year though that never put his arm down blocking my view now that guy

[craggy sundial]

lol

yeah that's hard

I really, really think a PSA recorded by the group where better concert behavior was encouraged would go a long way

[stoic juniper]

so jealous that other venues had chairs

[craggy sundial]

yes

[scarlet lichen]

need a rule for trees to pop a squat if above a height limit maybe

[craggy sundial]

I want an all seated vennue

so we don't have to go through thihs BS

just linen up whenever the fuck

knowing your seat was assigned

[scarlet lichen]

higher prices for guaranteed seats but has its comforts

[stoic juniper]

sitting on concrete outside just isn’t the same

[craggy sundial]

I've said this a lot but doing this for shows is why I started working at them instead :p

[magic sage]

I'm only 5'2" so people behind me could see fine

[scarlet lichen]

at least u get insomnia bonding time

[heavy junco]

Could of sworn they did that last year before the show or during their first talk section at least at sf

[craggy sundial]

they did some rules but I mean a whole-ass video

[heavy junco]

Yea I'm pretty sure that one was after siyeon got hit too

[scarlet lichen]

yooh's face said it all

😦

[craggy sundial]

one that said:
-please be mindful of who can or can't see behind you
-please don't shout over members talking or being translated
-please let us know if you are having trouble with an X
-please don't throw things
-please don't be an Insomniasshole

[craggy sundial]

there would still be delulu fans that wouldn't listen but the vast majority would get the picture

[scarlet lichen]

they really are in ur area

[fluid canopy]

I love you LOL

[stoic plinth]

For kpop, seated venue is best, I think as well.

[heavy junco]

Wait that was formatted wrong

Lisa >

[fluid canopy]

Dami>

[heavy junco]

Dami Lisa collab when

[scarlet lichen]

Rosé

kidding, i'm Lisa biased

[fluid canopy]

Yes

[scarlet lichen]

hottest kpop mixtape ever

[silent gate]

These rooms are nice

[heavy junco]

Lisa dami moonbyul and chaeyoung collab

[scarlet lichen]

yeah, i think it'd be worth it to have a room, i'm not bumming it out in the airport in a snow storm

glad if anyone likes ur rooms

[lone cipher]

I do

[heavy junco]

My room is adequate

[scarlet lichen]

if u have a spiderman costume it'd be fitting with that view

[silent gate]

Are you guys doing anything after you eat?

[lone cipher]

Boba tea was mentioned by many

[silent gate]

Ok @ me when you guys are gonna go ill meet up

[heavy junco]

No

[silent gate]

[lone cipher]

Lol yes let's go get Boba together-cheri stealing urza phone

[scarlet lichen]

lel

[heavy junco]

[fluid canopy]

[scarlet lichen]

so u now hacking each other's accounts? nice

[lone cipher]

Phones back in my hands

Oh and eat this

[sick fiber]

Just head to Bonchon and we can walk somewhere for boba

[fluid canopy]

@craggy sundial

[scarlet lichen]

whats the ping for

[silent gate]

[fluid canopy]

Phoenix wanted good pics

[charred rock]

[heavy junco]

[scarlet lichen]

i got ramen to compensate any FOMO

oh right, earlier today

[lone cipher]

I'm a professional

[scarlet lichen]

u guys seem to gather a bigger group than ATL branch

[lone cipher]

Blame Cheri

[fluid canopy]

We have 9 people

[heavy junco]

Chicago big city

[fluid canopy]

Hey I’m a good party organizer

[heavy junco]

Also I don't have my sister this time

[scarlet lichen]

well as far as I know, i met 10-11
but we traveled in 2's n 3's

so the chances of getting 9 together were slim

[fluid canopy]

Are you getting boba with us?

[silent gate]

Yeah you guys going now?

[heavy junco]

I don't have either

[fluid canopy]

It’s next door to us so once you’re ready we will meet ya

[silent gate]

Ok I'll be there in a few

[fluid canopy]

Okay let us know when you’re outside of Bonchon !

[heavy junco]

Can I cashapp one of yall and yall send it to him

[fluid canopy]

This is the most successful party

[heavy junco]

[fluid canopy]

We have 10 people once you arrive @silent gate

[silent gate]

Currently crossing every street alive

[craggy sundial]

Excellent food pics

prolly wanna eventually remove this stuff as it's PII

potentially

[sick fiber]

Yeah was easier than repeating myself 30x lol

[craggy sundial]

I figured

[jaunty tulip]

ayo mmt sent an email about m&g!!!

[craggy sundial]

if someone has a screenshot of that email with your personal info removed please send it here so I can pin it for folks

[jaunty tulip]

i got u

[craggy sundial]

you're a gem, thank you

[jaunty tulip]

so sorry they sent outta order

aw thank u im blushin

[craggy sundial]

eh, it'll work

[wintry meadow]

It's funny that they basically copy and paste the same message. Even the MMT staff wasn't masked in Reading

[jaunty tulip]

also! might be important to know that you can find your QR code by logging into your MMT account and checking your purchases

[craggy sundial]

VIP & M&G Check-in details:
-Masks required to enter the venue regardless of purchase tier
-VIP Pit Section check-in is at 3pm CST. They will wristband you for your section. Have your ticket ready in the AXS app for validation.
-GA will also be wristbanded separately, after VIP check-in is finished
-Highly likely people will have to leave the line-up to check-in - have a buddy save your spot in line while this happens or watch for a re-lineup
-M&G check-in also at 3pm. Physical ID required as well as ticket proof

[scarlet lichen]

QR code +ID as a sum up

[craggy sundial]

there's a critical piece of info in that M&G mail

masks required

[scarlet lichen]

must be because more ppl+weather sickness

[craggy sundial]

which...I don't know if they mean for check-in or for M&&G but if t hey mean overall they really needed to send that with the AXS mail.

[scarlet lichen]

hopefully they enforce it, stay safe

[craggy sundial]

yep. Like I said, for folks choosing to wait out in the cold, if you get sick then get the members sick that will suck for t he rest of the tour :p

so mask up

[wintry meadow]

They sent the same for Reading but didn't seem to care too much

It seems like a copy and paste from last year

Even during the event itself she told us masks were optional

Just highly recommended

[stoic juniper]

honestly thinking of bringing a tissue box bc i know my nose will start running

[scarlet lichen]

u're going to need it for Polaris

[quiet geode]

as will i lol

[wintry meadow]

I was good for Polaris, it was Gahyeon crying that got me

[craggy sundial]

lol "near box office"

[quiet geode]

samee

[craggy sundial]

the box office is located near the outside

[scarlet lichen]

or u have stage staff cutting a bunch of onions?

[craggy sundial]

if they're really gonna do it by a tent outside it's gonna be as chaotic as last time

there will be two tables and a tent, one table will be for M&G the other for VIP

but last time M&G was ready before VIP so we had to go through the check-in line twice

[scarlet lichen]

oh gosh, sounds messy

[craggy sundial]

it was, mostly because the re-lineup was confusing. It's why I recommend going in shifts and saving eachh others' spots

[quiet geode]

just got to chinatown. we were supposed to get here at 5 💀
im glad im staying the night before bc as you can see, my sense of time is just that bad 😭

[errant prairie]

outfit is ready! (Dw im wearing fleece lined fake skin tights lmaooo)

[quiet geode]

im wearing fleece lined too!!

[errant prairie]

🤝🤝

[fluid canopy]

Awww you missed out on all the food and tea experience :c we will go again tomorrow before the concert

[lone cipher]

Yeah there's a lot of us

[craggy sundial]

Glad you could all meet up

[sonic mulch]

Is anyone planning to line up around 4p that wants to be line buddies?

[quiet geode]

before the concert?

lets all be line buddies lol

[fluid canopy]

Yeh it opens at like 11am it’s two blocks from Jaslin if you wanna go for breakfast lol

[craggy sundial]

Everything for food around that area opens at 11a

[torpid tendon]

low key rushing to finish bling mongie

[glacial rover]

Check in seems normal from last time. Im just curious about the mask situation because its very vague and doesn't say much

[craggy sundial]

Like the other locations they will likely be required for the actual M&G as that is the latest update on the MMT event page

[glacial rover]

Previous stops were not required no?

[craggy sundial]

It certainly was but as to whether the venue was enforcing it you'd have to ask someone who went

[glacial rover]

I remember seeing that video someone secretly recorded and the members weren't at that time. Guess we'll have to wait for tomorrow

[craggy sundial]

The members aren't but that may be why they're asking attendees to

We'll see. I'm masking up regardless so it makes no difference to me

[torpid tendon]

i hope folks mask up 😔

[craggy sundial]

Same process for me as last time, KF94 then N95

[glacial rover]

Guess im just confused because if they cared about attendees and Dreamcatcher's safety... it should be a high wave again

[craggy sundial]

The prevalence of bivalent boosters has made it an acceptable risk

That's always been at the artist's discretion

And obviously the members are fully vaxxed and boosted. But they're still seeking to minimize risk.

[wintry meadow]

Masks were never required for the event. I was at 3 of them and every time when we were getting the talk in the beginning about what we were doing they said masks are optional. It was a pretty good mix of people masking or not. Even for the check in they say masks are required but I know in Reading the people that scanned my QR and did my wrist band were not masked

The only thing they specifically really really enforced was no recording

[glacial rover]

Appreciate the insider info!

[quiet geode]

my hotel has free breakfast so maybe for drinks? (or second breakfast lol)

[scarlet lichen]

sounds like ATL

[wintry meadow]

The same person gave us the same speech in all 3 venues and it was pretty much always the same. I assume ATL was the same too

Mask optional, no recording, no gifts, hi five not a handshake

It seems the no recording thing should have been put in by MMT from the beginning since they are enforcing it everywhere

[jaunty tulip]

OH MY GOD I LOVE IT!!!!!!!

[craggy sundial]

They did, just at the last minute :p

[jaunty tulip]

sry im late but omg

[craggy sundial]

As for the rest that's good to know. The language needs to be changed for these updates then because they all say required

[wintry meadow]

I think the part for the event always said optional, but the check in email says mandatory

But that's not enforced

I forgot my mask for the last one and the MMT staff was at least partially unmasked for it

I did go back to the hotel and get it before meeting the girls though

[quiet geode]

i was struggling to switch the tip but i finally got it

[craggy sundial]

Staff and members being unmasked is whatever as they are likely regularly testing throughout the tour and wouldn't participate if ill.

[errant prairie]

THANK UUU

[craggy sundial]

I don't have skin in the game this time due to not purchasing anything besides the concert but still plan on masking

[wintry meadow]

I had full intentions of wearing it for that one too but when I got changed into my Vision outfit I forgot them in my other pocket

I did the concerts themselves without but always wore one when I was going up to DC

I think it was Handong that said she was happy that this time they could see Somnia's smiling faces

[scarlet lichen]

got anywhere to store those extentions?

[fluid canopy]

@lone cipher 319???

[quiet geode]

my bag lol

[scarlet lichen]

dang, sounds like a live party

[fluid canopy]

Help numbers are not my thing

[wintry meadow]

Some of the venues have been putting restrictions on light stick lengths so keep that in mind

[quiet geode]

im coat checking my stuff cause i bring too much

[scarlet lichen]

try 931

or 139?

[quiet geode]

im aware. ill comply if they say something bc its just for fun lol

[heavy junco]

Cheri having problems

[scarlet lichen]

number dyslexia?

[heavy junco]

Among other things

[scarlet lichen]

oh geez, not among us

hope u guys get situated* tonight

long snowy night, and a colder morning i bet

[quiet geode]

and also for emotional support in line 😂

[silent gate]

Weather just got bad

I just ran to Walgreens and it's snowing a lot now

[cerulean cloud]

Ended up getting ice cream right before returning to hotel

[silent gate]

No way

[wintry meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/bear-grylls-camping-outdoor-hiking-nature-gif-16543873

[quiet geode]

[jaunty tulip]

no way

[craggy sundial]

Their risk

[cerulean cloud]

[craggy sundial]

I would never ever do that especially with that neighborhood and that weather

[scarlet lichen]

"spare a charger?"

[craggy sundial]

And there is a chance the cops will come by and break it up

As they consider that being on private property. Good luck.

[cerulean cloud]

Yikes

[craggy sundial]

I mean I know this area, so if they want to take those risks it's on them

[scarlet lichen]

6:30-7 imo is best time, night before is overboard

could never be in freezing weather with a tent, too little shelter

[craggy sundial]

Its doubly bad if the Radius hasn't cleared it and there's a show there tonight

[cerulean cloud]

My parents would kill me if they saw me doing that lol

[scarlet lichen]

ur insides would before they do imo, too cold as i said lel

[cerulean cloud]

yeah bad sitation either way

I mean you can blend in as the homeless ig? idk

[stoic juniper]

that’s insane 😭

[craggy sundial]

I mean this isn't LA. Cops break that stuff up

[stoic juniper]

some ppls dedication is wild

[cerulean cloud]

⛺ 🚓

[scarlet lichen]

i was gonna make a Dora joke

[scarlet lichen]

"that's a paddlin"

[stoic juniper]

i would love to hear it

[craggy sundial]

They're taking appreciable risk doing it but like I said, there was always a chance of crazy fans

The funny part is that they can't permanently keep that stuff there and they may not be able to hold that exact place in line. The check in and the gathering in front of the door are done separately and break up the lines a little

[scarlet lichen]

Dora: "can u say 'dedicado'"?

[cerulean cloud]

i would be fearing for my life

lol

[craggy sundial]

They will have to move those things for the morning barriers to be set up to block off the main lot.

[cerulean cloud]

like who knows whos gonna be knocking/breakinginto the tent

[craggy sundial]

[scarlet lichen]

zippers are easy to open probably without force/ripping

[craggy sundial]

Chicago isn't the crime infested city people stereotype it to be but westish neighborhoods especially in the industrial areas can get dicey. And it doesn't matter how many people you have if one assailant has a gun. 😛

[cerulean cloud]

yeah definitely not as dangerous as what ppl make it to be

[craggy sundial]

So godspeed to them.

[cerulean cloud]

i mean absolute numbers sure but the city is hugeeeeeeeeeeeee

[craggy sundial]

Their choice their risk.

[cerulean cloud]

wouldn't be the first batch of fans I would want to associate with 👀

[fading pivot]

I would more understand overnight camping if it were one big lump like Denver or LA. But there are seperate sections.

[craggy sundial]

I mean, it's just hardcore fans. I don't particularly begrudge them but I also reserve the right to have an opinion based on what I know of the city.

Those people are guaranteed vip pit 1 holders

Who want center front

Zero incentive if you are pit 2 and further back imo

And like I said the line doesn't stay static the whole time. There are multiple opportunities for the line order to change especially in the big blob near doors opening

I'll put it to you all this way - I waited a third of the time, made a deal to have a spot saved while benefiting people and still got near barricade with great pics and video

My group moved up pretty significantly in the lineup in front of the door and were practically next to the people who were there at 630am. So it definitely isn't required to camp overnight.

[cerulean cloud]

i'm just worried about all the things that could affect line up order

[craggy sundial]

It's why it pays to make friends

[cerulean cloud]

yeah I have to hope I have a good side by side

:p

[craggy sundial]

Can almost guarantee those campers know each other and will fiercely defend their spots in line

What will make people mad is if the campers are saving spots for yet more people and they don't clear it with others

This is why I prefer all seated

None of this hunger games shit

[cerulean cloud]

yeah much more relaxed

[craggy sundial]

Standing only and sectioned line stuff behavior is as old as time. The above happens all the time

[balmy ember]

I'm sick, they actually fine with this?

[cerulean cloud]

i chose this venue as opposed to other equivalent distance drives because the GA was split up into VIP tiers while the others just had one big GA

[craggy sundial]

People camp, try to save spots, do line cuts, make deals, and generally hope if they are out there long enough they guarantee their preferred spot

Yep.

And really if you are vip anything your view will be ok because of that separation

[cerulean cloud]

yeh

why I loved Minneapolis's venue so much

[craggy sundial]

The hardcores who set up those tents just really really want center front barricade

[balmy ember]

uhhh

skyway was alright

[cerulean cloud]

well the theatre itself idc but the way it was like split up

ofc too hot lmao

[craggy sundial]

Now you guys know why I said I didn't want to compete with that and just have side barricade or just behind. Camping is a young person's game and I did that shit what I was young and felt invincible

[cerulean cloud]

will I get juiced out of my line for some reason if my keys have some key chain stuff on it

dumb question

[balmy ember]

yeah honestly it was even being near the edge of the vip section felt like a microwave

[craggy sundial]

Not that I know of. But flag a security person working the line or setup and find out for sure

[cerulean cloud]

cool cool

It doesn't seem like I'm wanting to drive anymore

it said 18 minute walk but it doesn't seem that bad

it was the walk home i was more concerned about

back to hotel*

[craggy sundial]

If anything I find this tent camping amusing

[cerulean cloud]

the girls be sweating oceans

[craggy sundial]

It's literally winter with an overnight snowfall, but kpop fans are wild.

[balmy ember]

I just remembered some girl whip out her ipad in front me during the concert now, it blocked almost everything good

[cerulean cloud]

how is that allowed

lol

[craggy sundial]

I almost always say something

And I'm not kind about it

"your ipad is gonna have shittier resolution than my phone, so put that down so I can get better footage for you and stop blocking people like an asshole"

[balmy ember]

no clue, but I was so close to committing violence until she moved

[craggy sundial]

Security won't boot people unless they are being obnoxious but get enough people on your side around you and they'll comply :p

[scarlet lichen]

good, a bigger hitbox, if u dun care on destruction of property

[cerulean cloud]

yeah you need a team

[craggy sundial]

I don't condone actually physically doing anything. That's too far and well it opens up all kinds of nonsense that makes the show worse for everyone

But shaming people into the right behavior verbally? I don't have a problem with that

[stoic juniper]

i honestly didnt record last time bc i had ga and i know someone in vip is gonna have a 4k video uploaded shortly after the concert

i just took one video during the ment for the memory

[craggy sundial]

I take minimal video and mostly photos for my own benefit

[cerulean cloud]

I'm prob gonna go more minimal on the phone this time aroud

[craggy sundial]

Otherwise what's the point, I'm there to actually watch the show not record it for other people

People wanna do it, that's their choice but I think it robs yourself of the live experience a bit.

[stoic juniper]

i’ll probably film a bit more bc i have vip this time but honestly i’m terrible at recording videos

[craggy sundial]

The way I see it, to properly film you have to be looking through your phone somewhat

[cerulean cloud]

have they taken phones yet this tour?

[craggy sundial]

Nope and they probably won't this time either

A good decision tbh

[cerulean cloud]

ok even less incentive

I mean I have a lightstick already in my hands I'm not an octopus

[stoic plinth]

I hate so much that I'm in GA this time

[craggy sundial]

VIP sold out even faster than last time, it was wild

[stoic plinth]

Yeah and I'm not tall

[craggy sundial]

To give people an idea, I am ticket ID 9. And VIP Pit 1s were gone within a minute of my purchase.

[balmy ember]

yeah it did I had to buy resale off to get a vip3

[craggy sundial]

I think it's like 100 spots tops for 1

Just from eyeballing

And why no matter what your view is still good from 1

[stoic plinth]

You think they'll be a different song or 2 on the setlist tomorrow?

[craggy sundial]

Maybe. Halfway point of the tour. But probably not.

[sick fiber]

I have 298/299 for vip1

[molten saffron]

Fucking maniacs

[lone cipher]

Spiked shoulderpads fix all of these issues just saying

[tiny forge]

Anyone still doing anything?

[cerulean cloud]

there's that many?

[tulip heron]

not for vip1, i have mid 200s for vip2

[cerulean cloud]

[craggy sundial]

Ah so it is larger than I thought

[glossy trellis]

I am so excited for this concert, my first ever concert!! I hope they sing Silent Night and Because, my fav popular songs

From other past concerts for DC. Are people talkative, as in they'll talk to strangers in the concert venue and in line?

[next pumice]

For those at Jaslin: if you need a hair dryer it's hidden on the top shelf of the wardrobe 😂
Was about ready to put out an SOS.

[lone cipher]

If I had hair that would help lol

[balmy ember]

I had someone ask me how I got into dreamcatcher before the concert started and we had a nice small chat throughout the concert

so I guess it depends on who your around

[lone cipher]

The group im with discussed for a few hours tonight and will likely do it again tomorriw

[molten saffron]

I have ticket id 3

[lone cipher]

I'm GA but im tall so it won't go badly for me haha

[molten saffron]

Can we line up by ticket id like studio pav🫠

[lone cipher]

No

But its likely going to be a bit weird as meet n greet people will need to jump out of line to check in

[austere zenith]

where was the merch booth at last tour?

[tropic shuttle]

the street radius is on felt p safe when I was there last year

[polar sparrow]

So I'm in charge of the lights on our building. I changed them to red/yellow for the weekend

It's nowhere near the venue, though

Anyone else not planning to do the VIP check in before? They set up a check-in table after the show last time, and I'm counting on that again.

[stoic plinth]

My friend is off work at 5pm. I'm really hoping they allow check in afterwards

[polar sparrow]

I've waited in the freezing cold for DC in 2019, I've waited in the blistering heat in 2022. I'm not getting fooled again.

[fluid canopy]

Lol mine is 125

So it’s prob like 125-150 and I’m lucky

[fallow pollen]

It's far too early to be awake. The things I do for dreamcatcher

[dull fox]

Same. Listening to Wake Up at the airport to stay awake…

[fallow pollen]

Haha, at least you're flying. Means you'll be safer. But the awake struggles are real

[dull fox]

Ohh yeah, drive safe!!

[fallow pollen]

Thanks!

Leaving now and sadly will probably hit Indianapolis during rush hour

[fleet wigeon]

Everyone stay safe and warm!

[magic sage]

I'm at the airport!

Everything is still on schedule even though the snowstorm is here now

[scarlet lichen]

i'd feel u guys, must be rough, hope u can camp out the snow and avoid overpriced food

[magic sage]

The stadium jacket is very warm btw

[scarlet lichen]

i bet, those things have some weight to them

[magic sage]

Yeah they do

[scarlet lichen]

i was gonna go in a hoodie, over my concert outfit of a button down over t-shirt

[magic sage]

Hehe I have a hoodie on too

[scarlet lichen]

mine says Mosace, cause yugioh

[magic sage]

Nice

I'm wearing the 21 DC merch hoodie

[scarlet lichen]

nice

i wish i can pass on something to dongie without being stalkerish

[magic sage]

Lmao

[scarlet lichen]

a short little "do great tonight 💪"

[austere vine]

The day has finally come guys

[fallow pollen]

So far I'm not freezing in gym shorts getting gas (I plan on changing after the drive)

But I'm sure the 3-4 hours left I have will change that 😂

[craggy sundial]

it wasn't great but tolerable out there this morning. after a few hours I'm sure there'll be different feelings but yeah

[fallow pollen]

Yeah, I walked out from under the covered area and the wind was strong and I'm not even to the windy city yet

[craggy sundial]

so I was looking at the layout and there appears to be a small vestibule next to the box office in the lobby. If they don't do check-in outside, it'll probably happen just inside and they may pull people in a few at a time. We'll see.

[errant prairie]

Oh that map helps a lot i was wondering where coat check was thank you!!

[craggy sundial]

the full map is pinned in this thread

in essence, if it's where it was last time, you go in straight through both sets of doors, then hang a wide right and go straight and that's where the stage is

they could put it in Cermak but that has a far smaller capacity and I don't think there were that many less sales :p

[lofty raptor]

TODAYS THE DAY AAAAAAAA

[lone cipher]

If I buy merch will coat check keep it with my coat or will I need to have someone hold my spot and run back to my hotel?

@craggy sundial

I say hold my spot like I have a good seat/standing area lol

[craggy sundial]

coat check is supposedly a personal items check as well

since you have to check bags larger than the standard it's possible they could hold your merch but I can't confirm that 100%

[lone cipher]

If anyone knows please let me know

Worse comes to worst I can just ask there

Or hold it the entire timr

[craggy sundial]

my plan is not to coat check right away, ensure I have a spot then check my coat then while someone saves where I end up :p

that is unless they require you to check coats before entering the venue. Doubtful, but possible

[lone cipher]

Hmm hmm will have to see but if I buy a shirt and hat I just wear them the whole time. Double shirt OMIGOSH

Jeez its not very snowed over out there but it looks nasty

[craggy sundial]

yeah like I said because it was half-rain it barely stuck, but it's not fun to be out in

[lone cipher]

Glad I was convinced to stay an extra night now

I relish a challenge but this would be a bit much

[craggy sundial]

well thankfully it's not supposed to snow anymore after midmorning.

[lone cipher]

Yeah I'm gonna he honest if I didnt have this Discord id be real lost and honestly scared.

I feel like thanks to you all this is a way better experience

[craggy sundial]

it's pretty much part of why this place exists. Discord is good for the real-time chat element

[lone cipher]

Well I dunno how often you're thanked and same to the others who have advised me so far, but you have my gratitude

[craggy sundial]

appreciated for sure

because I have things to do this morning I'm probably gonna leave at around 9 or so, maybe a little sooner

probably will be in the area close to late morning

[lone cipher]

Lot of us gonna get brunch around 11

Course no one else is awake so that might change but im pressing X to doubt

I slept my usual 5 hours

[craggy sundial]

if I didn't have a degree of uncertainty around my timing I might join you folks but as it is we'll probably run into each other in line as folks communicate throughout the day

[lone cipher]

I look forward to it.

[dull fox]

Mind if I join in on this brunch? Just landed.

[lone cipher]

Its gonna be a while so if you're hungry now get some food. I forgot where it is and I haven't seen anyone else on yet

Unfortunately I suffer from a deplorable curse of a bad memory

I dont mind it though

[dull fox]

No worries, I’ll keep an eye out for details

[lone cipher]

I'm sure the others will be awake soon ish

I just never need much sleep

[quiet geode]

what time is the brunch?

and are you heading to the venue afterwards?

i fell asleep while doing my lab homework so i have to do that first since it’s due at 10

if anyone is lined up atm, how is it? hows the weather looking?

[cerulean cloud]

You think merch will still be sold and available after the m&g?

[craggy sundial]

It was last time

[quiet geode]

There probably will be but not everything will be in stock

[craggy sundial]

If there's people to sell to they will stay open but yeah, high chance not everything available. I got what I wanted though

[cerulean cloud]

Mk

[craggy sundial]

Still on the fence with the jersey. I will need to hold and see it.

[scarlet lichen]

everything apparently opens up after 11, so u have time for ur work

or what i got from this thread

[wintry meadow]

I’m just watching from far away, but how did the campers do?

[craggy sundial]

I imagine it was ok otherwise we woulda heard something

One wonders if the venue will make them pack that shit up eventually because they're creating a giant space where more people could be lining up. They'll have to break it down by 4 pm because they reconfigure the lot

[wintry meadow]

Part of me thinks that the travel time to Chicago is short enough from NJ that I might just have to add it to future tours. I’m having DC withdrawal

[craggy sundial]

I would just really favor an all seated venue next time especially if their travels take them through here during the colder months

[cerulean cloud]

then the withdrawal starts over

[wintry meadow]

Yes, but I could delay it slightly longer

[lone cipher]

Let me run thru what I believe the schedule is.

3-5pm myself and other Meet n Greet people need to be at the box office vestibule to check in for post concert.

6pm doors open
730 pm concert starts

[magic sage]

Landed in Chicago!

[lone cipher]

Good to hear you're safe

[magic sage]

Thanks ☺️

[lone cipher]

Not a problem. Depending on your plans you can join us for brunch once someone else who remembers the plan wakes up

Otherwise we will see you at the venue, perhaps

Also i saw a few others are driving up at current so please be aware the weather here sucks

[magic sage]

I can have the taxi take me to the Jaslin

[lone cipher]

Ah thats where a large part of the group is located

I think we meet in the lobby at 11

[magic sage]

I've been up since 4, I don't know if I can wait that long to eat lol

Well, 4am eastern

[lone cipher]

Do what you gotta do

[cerulean cloud]

that felt like the fanciest hotel shower I ever used

[magic sage]

Yeah I'll meet up at the Jaslin. Didn't know if I can chill in the lobby without a room so I may be in the Starbucks

Don't*

[lone cipher]

Always ask. But will keep your location in mind

[quiet geode]

honestly this place is so fancy i was bouncing off the walls when i got in yesterday 😂

[cerulean cloud]

feel so bad having this space

could use a 2nd person

:p

like a big couch right here

[quiet geode]

no not even, 4 people could stay here and it wouldnt have been an issue bc of the trundle 😭

[cerulean cloud]

I mean what really got me is the digital thermostat

fancyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

[heavy junco]

My room has a bed. And that's about it

[quiet geode]

IKR!!

[heavy junco]

Who needs a thermostat when it's 33° outside

[cerulean cloud]

i mean it's at default 72 which seems about right anyway so I don't need to adjust

:p

[quiet geode]

💀

[lone cipher]

Haha I actually have to wear pants and not shorts

[cerulean cloud]

but the bed lights is crazyyyy

[quiet geode]

im using the lil office desk ITS SO COOL

[cerulean cloud]

yeah I'm at it rn

[heavy junco]

Mine was set at 88 for some reason

[cerulean cloud]

I like to record a short tour of my hotel rooms sometimes and I did it this time

[quiet geode]

my boyfriend is taking a nap so the divider is really helpful 😂

[lone cipher]

You found a reptile who used the room last @heavy junco

[quiet geode]

oh i just took wide angle pictures 😂

[cerulean cloud]

lmaoo

the TV is also nice and I'm just using it to play DC

[cerulean cloud]

4

[heavy junco]

Tiny room

[lone cipher]

Mine isn't much bigger but it will do the job.

[heavy junco]

It is snowing outside

[lone cipher]

Not for long

[fluid canopy]

Good morning

Does everything really not open till 11?

[heavy junco]

Most places yea

[cerulean cloud]

That’s how asian places roll

[magic sage]

I have no idea where the non reserved taxis are 😂

[heavy junco]

There's a few that open earlier but might not be what you want

[cerulean cloud]

Unless you’re a bakery

[fluid canopy]

Starbucks is open wanna go to Starbucks for a snack or something?

[torpid tendon]

are we excited 💃🏿

[fluid canopy]

[torpid tendon]

starbucks my beloved

[fluid canopy]

It’s right next to Jaslin too

Wow this hotel is by everything

[cerulean cloud]

Prob the last place id go to in a chinatown

Its a trappp

[fluid canopy]

I won’t go alone Omg lol

I’d get kidnapped

Probably

[cerulean cloud]

Doesn’t matter it’s the fact that you are going to a Starbucks

[fluid canopy]

Hey I want something warm to drink lol

[heavy junco]

Starbucks is white girl heaven

[fluid canopy]

I talked my week’s quota worth yesterday

Now I see why people say talking can make your voice feel raw lol

[cerulean cloud]

Lol

These waffles are awesome

[heavy junco]

Waffles

[fluid canopy]

We gonna organize for Starbucks

[heavy junco]

[fluid canopy]

Who wants to go

@lone cipher

[cerulean cloud]

I do not want Starbucks lol

[fluid canopy]

I know you’re awake lol

[magic sage]

I'm still looking for a taxi, will be there whenever lmao

[heavy junco]

You could always walk like I did

[lone cipher]

Did I hear caffeine thats overpriced?

[queen kiln]

omg the concert is today

[lone cipher]

Because you know im there for it @fluid canopy

[cerulean cloud]

[heavy junco]

Caffeine and overpriced.

[lone cipher]

I dont have to walk far and I get to see the others who wanna go

I'm cool with it

[heavy junco]

I don't wanna go outside yet

[magic sage]

🫠

[heavy junco]

[lone cipher]

@fluid canopy, @magic sage is here now so you're not the only lady

[silent gate]

I don't wanna move

[lone cipher]

You and a bus had a grudge match so I dont blame you

[silent gate]

Too real

[heavy junco]

I too don't wanna move

[lone cipher]

I'm bored lol though I dont have a way to charge my phone aside from my charger so it may be shut off til the concert at a certain point.

[silent gate]

Are we heading to the venue after we eat? I wanna know if I should bring my lightstick or come back and grab it

[lone cipher]

I'd say depending on how far we go we should go eat and come back

But thats just me

[tiny forge]

Anywhere we go is probably the opposite direction of the venue. So it'll be easy to stop back at the hotel I think

[magic sage]

Driver located, will be on my way in a couple of minutes

[lone cipher]

So give you time to settle into your room and then we meet up for overpriced coffee first? @fluid canopy

[magic sage]

I don't have a room

[lone cipher]

Yeah and I figured we should go light and then come back

[magic sage]

I'll be good to go as soon as I show up ☺️

[lone cipher]

Why carry more if we aren't going to where we mean to be

[magic sage]

I only have a purse lol

[tiny forge]

Ya I'll hop on the overpriced caffeine train, too

[lone cipher]

I was more talking to the others in the group.

Since I mistakenly thought you had a room

I'm a bit off

I can also grab my box of Clif Bars to bring with so we have snacks in line

[heavy junco]

My main bathroom light doesn't work

[lone cipher]

Hit the button that isn't the obvious switch

Its right next to it

[heavy junco]

Different hotel

[lone cipher]

I'm psychic aka guessing

[magic sage]

I'm in an Uber! On my way to Jaslin

[lone cipher]

Fantastic. Then we should all try to meet around 915 at the latest i think

If 915 works for everyone.

[heavy junco]

It's fine they have wall lights that work enough

[magic sage]

My driver said about about 30 minutes

[lone cipher]

I said 935 at the latest

Total accident

[heavy junco]

Did you though

[lone cipher]

What the 3 and 1 are close and I have fat fingers

The fact that our group has 3 others around or taller than me makes me feel better though. I dont like being the tallest all the time

[fading pivot]

You guys sound like you're having a blast already. I'm both happy for you and jealous of you. 😄

[fluid canopy]

On our way to the lobby

[sick fiber]

IDK how many people are staying through tomorrow but the kpop store opens at 11am.

[fluid canopy]

@lone cipher come dowwwwwn lol

[fluid canopy]

That’s the number of the store I work at

[lone cipher]

All right all right ill be down soon

[heavy junco]

Mhmm

[magic sage]

Still en route

[fluid canopy]

Where everyone else

How far are you

[magic sage]

About 12 minutes away

[fluid canopy]

I can handle that lol. You know how to reach Jaslin then?

[magic sage]

Yeah he's gonna drop me off there

[heavy junco]

I'm at my hotel

[magic sage]

Just passed the venue, a handful of people there already. Some had tents

I'm here

Where you guys at

[sick fiber]

I'll be heading down shortly.

[fluid canopy]

We are in the lobby of Jaslin

[magic sage]

Okie

[fluid canopy]

Hurrrrrrrrrrrry

@sick fiber we gonna go without you at this rate

[sick fiber]

Starbucks is literally next door lol

We can meet y'all there

[cerulean cloud]

how much is a handful

[heavy junco]

I can hold about 2 or 3

[fluid canopy]

Lol okay

[errant prairie]

i cant believe the concert is tonight and here i am at school LOL

[silent gate]

You guys are at Starbucks already?

[lone cipher]

Yeah we are

[silent gate]

I'll be there In 5

[lone cipher]

Sounds good

And now I'm holding this pain

[fallow pollen]

Camp line looks pretty short. Idk if anyone has said anything yet. I just got to Chicago so I have catching up to do

[lone cipher]

Want Starbucks lol

[fluid canopy]

Hi Alice how are you

[lone cipher]

No longer hungry

[frigid crystal]

Catch Cheri when she faints

Remember to hold high five for 2.5 seconds

[lone cipher]

What about when I faint

[fluid canopy]

So far boring food but food

[fluid canopy]

👏

[heavy junco]

[fallow pollen]

If I'm parked next to a bunch of cars on the side of the road and there aren't any signs does that mean I'm probably fine

[lone cipher]

I wouldn't know

I parked in a lot recommended to me

[frigid crystal]

Yummmm

[fallow pollen]

I'm like right next to radius and a bunch of other cars are here so it seems fine

[digital leaf]

this was pinned, could be helpful

[fluid canopy]

I’m holding this @frigid crystal

[heavy junco]

[fluid canopy]

Best pun

[heavy junco]

Best is a word you could use

[true jewel]

How’s the line so far? Just getting through Indiana from Detroit. Stopping for gas.

[fluid canopy]

Has people already in 5 tents

[cerulean cloud]

ur already there?

[fluid canopy]

Yeh

[fluid canopy]

No

Joking lol we’re going at 11:30 ish

[craggy sundial]

That's not too bad

Source: I just got here

It still sucks weather wise. I'm basically going to do a couple things before dropping into the line

[fallow pollen]

Yeah it's definitely cold and wet lol

[craggy sundial]

Snow showers as expected

[lone cipher]

Yeah but nothing much is sticking

[craggy sundial]

Yep

[lone cipher]

Should be careful of black ice tho

[craggy sundial]

It's just the wind and the cold now

[frigid crystal]

You’re there??

Wow line not too bad!

Who that the super tent tho

[craggy sundial]

VIP Pit 1 holders more hardcore than me

[frigid crystal]

Goals

[heavy junco]

Barricade chasers

[craggy sundial]

Not my goals lol

[frigid crystal]

I’ll be like that on their tour in 2025

😂

I have simple goals in life

💀

[craggy sundial]

Here you go folks.

[fallow pollen]

Close to me then lol

[dusk token]

You stand there until 6pm?

[lone cipher]

3 at least to check in for meet n greet

[dusk token]

Good luck

[lone cipher]

Where we're going we don't need roads

[errant prairie]

omg tthe person in the platform boots

trooper fr

[lone cipher]

@fluid canopy also has platforms

[craggy sundial]

My car is literally down the street and I am cool taking turns dropping into it to warm up if people save spots

[cerulean cloud]

lol

[errant prairie]

danggg

im wearing my platform docs but theyre not like huge platforms

i need all the height i can get since its standing LOL

[fallow pollen]

I forgot my shoes 😩

[dusk token]

Do you have socks

[fallow pollen]

I'm rocking socks and flip-flops

[dusk token]

[fallow pollen]

I'm ready to spot bc I look a mess

Easy*

[marsh hill]

this may be a long shot but the weather is so bad around here that there’s no way i’ll be able to make it tonight 😦 if i pay for everything plus some for the hassle would someone be able to grab me a small sweatshirt?

[craggy sundial]

I'm totally going to walk up to you and compliment you on that.

[silent gate]

This is a good outfit don't let anyone tell you otherwise

[fluid canopy]

I scared myself by accidentally playing the elevator game anyways

@lone cipher

[lone cipher]

Well now you won't see Dami byeeee

[fallow pollen]

This outfit is a mess but at least I can see the girls in it

Also I have a parking ticket I don't need it someone thinks they'll use it

[stoic plinth]

As long it don't have zone parking only or pay to park, I think you're good.

[fallow pollen]

Yeah it looks like the guard said it was fine

[craggy sundial]

That said there are super limited spots so...

[next pumice]

@supple parrot and I are interested if there's still a brunch at 11 plan 👀

[fluid canopy]

What happened was I got distracted talking to everyone then I realized that it was suddenly floor 3 and I’m floor 2 lol. I I pushed the button to go back down but for some reason it visited floor 4 first… and no one got on!!! so I pushed the button again since it reset itself and it started going down but then it opened on floor 3 again and I accidentally got off cuz people got on and I thought it was my floor. But then I realized it was floor 3 again and got on to go down and finally got on my floor

[tiny forge]

@craggy sundial is coat check free? If not, is it cash only?

[craggy sundial]

Coat check is 6 and I'm not sure if it's cash only

[lone cipher]

We did Starbucks early sorry

[lone cipher]

And now, I'm holding this pain

[next pumice]

Day off work means I'm physically unable to be awake before 10 😂.

[lone cipher]

Its cool but im sorry for what its worth

[next pumice]

Nah it's cool. Starbucks good or did y'all spot a more promising coffee spot?

[cerulean cloud]

Lol not sure if I’m allowed to park here

[craggy sundial]

Send a picture?

[craggy sundial]

Hmmm. I'm not sure where that is lol

[sick fiber]

Starbucks is Starbucks. Most of the places around Chinatown don't open till 11am for lunch service. There is a place near the kpop store that had pastries, and another restaurant that served (what appeared to be) traditional Chinese breakfast

[cerulean cloud]

Its on s ford st

[craggy sundial]

I completely have no idea sadly. Apologies. I think if there's no signs it should be ok but I'm not 100% sure

[cerulean cloud]

Yeah no signs and the curb isn’t colored so….

Im actually gonna get a bubble tea first last thing I want is to be thirsty

[stoic plinth]

There's no signs that say do not park, just it's a small street and 2 way lol. You should be good if you don't mind.

[fluid canopy]

@silent gate

Where you

[silent gate]

Coming rn

[cerulean cloud]

The thing was that not many cara st all

Cars

[little stream]

How cold is it guys

[sick fiber]

Depends on where you're from and how well you can handle winter. To me it is very manageable, to others not so much

[little stream]

Im from Minnesota so i think its fine weather

[sick fiber]

Same lol. I have on a windbreaker and hat.

[craggy sundial]

It's snowing again despite it saying it wasn't lol

[fallow pollen]

If you have shoes it's not so bad lol but I think my opinion is skewed

[fluid canopy]

Who needs a jacket when you have six hot packs

My pockets are very warm

[heavy junco]

[fluid canopy]

No coat check = no time or cash wasted = more merch

Watch me only buy like two things..

[heavy junco]

Buy a lightstick

[fallow pollen]

My upper body is fine in a hoodie

[fluid canopy]

I have welcome to the dream concert lightstick though!

[heavy junco]

Wave both

[fluid canopy]

LOL

but pictures

I need a lightstick that can take photos

Someone pls design a selfie stick lightstick

[heavy junco]

Million dollar idea

[fluid canopy]

[cerulean cloud]

Is there a trash can outside the venue

[wintry meadow]

Take a few photos and videos for yourself and let the dedicated video people record the rest. Better to enjoy it with your own eyes

[cerulean cloud]

Agree

[austere zenith]

hello fellow concert goers 🤠 i’m so excited

[cerulean cloud]

Count on yerin the queen

[wintry meadow]

If you’re lucky his angle is even the same as yours

[cerulean cloud]

Lol

Is a belt with pockets going to be an issue lol

[heavy junco]

[craggy sundial]

There will be

[cerulean cloud]

I might just chug this tea then

[fluid canopy]

LOL @lone cipher @tiny forge

HELP WE ARE TRAPPED ON THE SECOND FLOOR I LEFT MY KEY IN THE POWER BOX

[lone cipher]

Wait what

[fluid canopy]

MY KEY IS IN THE POWER BOX

TELL TALL WE NEED HIS KEY LMAO

[tiny forge]

Omw

[lone cipher]

Hes on his way

[fluid canopy]

We can’t even use the elevator to come down without the key

[tiny forge]

Pretty sure you can go to floor 1 without key

[lone cipher]

Hes going up sorry my phone always on silent

[heavy junco]

[cerulean cloud]

Damn I got a better parking spot

[little stream]

How many people are their already

[quiet geode]

would anyone be able and willing to let us line up with yall when we get there?

[tulip heron]

I'll be arriving around 2 ish, always down for line buddies

[cerulean cloud]

Im here bud

I just got in line

So if you get here soon probably won’t be an issue

[craggy sundial]

50-60? Hard to tell with the tents

[lone cipher]

Our party arrived

We are around the corner between the gates since the line is getting longer but we were told the tents would be taken down around 1

[balmy ember]

Just arrived and checked into Jaslin is anyone want to meet up? I was planning on getting something to eat

[lone cipher]

All of our party is in line at Radius

Find me, im a massive guy in a red jacket and wr have an umbrella with polka dots as well

[next pumice]

We're two blocks away at a bakery

Having brunch. Tous Les Jours

[supple parrot]

You can see it from the entrance of jaslin across the street

[craggy sundial]

Time to comment on your umbrella choice.

[balmy ember]

I can see it from my room

[next pumice]

I think we need a pic of the umbrella to comment.

[balmy ember]

I'll meet up with your group for now

[next pumice]

Sounds good! We're at the first table in black dreamcatcher hoodies

[balmy ember]

I'll be there in a moment

[next pumice]

👋 drive safe! @supple parrot says hi!

[balmy ember]

Alright I'm here

[stoic plinth]

All the snow is gone where I'm at

[rocky glacier]

[true jewel]

Hihi~ What section are you going to be in?

[quiet geode]

i think itd make more sense if we brought you something LoL

[sick fiber]

My friend and I are going to walk to Slurp Slurp from the Jaslin hotel for lunch if anyone not in line wants to join

[craggy sundial]

@fluid canopy that girl selling pcs and albums is probably coming your guys' way

[lone cipher]

We are back at hotel for something

Be back soon as we can

[stoic plinth]

Nvm, the snow is back

[lone cipher]

Save me a signed Nightmare XD

[craggy sundial]

Hm, they're putting up some barriers. Wonder if they are handling check in near the cermak hall entrance

[scarlet lichen]

if vip 1 is considered huge, with 30-40 ppl being sorted, u may get that 2nd row view

being a rare optimist

[torpid tendon]

[craggy sundial]

[jaunty tulip]
