I actually inquired about premium seating options for Levi's (that's the pro move for larger venues) and the suites started at 20k which includes 20 tickets but no catered food. YouTube theater box tickets are actually really great value for what you get.

I think I'm gonna be giving up for now. Got my one and it's decent

Sameee. We should meet up@on concert day lol

It's like whack-a-mole trying to click these blue dots 🔵
normal tundra
Yuh. So did anyone get those A seats that opened up
digital needle
maybe some rich somnie
queen juniper
any rich somnies feeling particularly generous today?
digital needle
i bet most of the first seven rows are just plat (the ones left anyway)
queen juniper
oof
normal tundra
rip
normal tundra
there's another
ok nvm lol
i would click the secure button and then you have a few minutes to decide
queen juniper
lmk if theres any row a lmao
lucid storm
i clicked on it and was debating if $500 is worth it
Depends on how much you like Dreamcatcher.
queen juniper
that is true
normal tundra
yuh idk how much longer I'll be looking at this
queen juniper
it also depends if my dad will let me 
digital needle
it's just whackamole at this moment
lucid storm
it also depends if my dad will let me <:Clueless:895938729275957288>
Wait how old are you?
normal tundra
I actually got lucky and grabbed one of those A seats
But paid through the nose for it
digital needle
582 or something?
normal tundra
Yeah
lucid storm
I mean my family knows what purchases I make, but that's because we all use the same credit card account because it gets better points.
queen juniper
well its less "im not allowed to go by myself" and more "my parents are paying me to let them come with me"
normal tundra
That's nice of them. So you have to buy three tickets?
queen juniper
3 plane tickets, 2 hotel rooms, 2 tickets for each concert
mom comes to sf concert, dad comes to la
lucid storm
So yeah, I would be getting yelled at if I bought tickets at prices $200 and above.
normal tundra
Expensive
queen juniper
i mean i know i can pay them back for a $1k ticket
im just not sure how happy they would be letting me borrow that
even though i have a pretty good "credit history" borrowing money from my parents
and i just started a much better paying job
lucid storm
I almost want to post the you guys are getting paid? GIF again.
queen juniper
not having to pay rent certainly helps
broken nest
im getting paid now minimum wage tho
haha
yeah I dont have rent or bills
just going to school
so theres where my money comes from
lucid storm
Like I'm not poor but I don't have disposable income to throw around like this.
broken nest
and FAFSA
they just paid me out yesterday its like they knew
not enough for me to buy no 200 tickets tho
lucid storm
Or actually I kind of did for a period.
But now the family thinks I spend too much and told me to stop.
queen juniper
im at that exact awkward transition phase where i havent moved out yet but i have a job that would pay enough were i to pay rent
and so i just have a shit ton of money to throw around 
well not exactly a "shit ton" but
enough for a concert like this
broken nest
and so i just have a shit ton of money to throw around <:akkoshrug:3559231779033...
yeah if I was living on my own
no way in hell i would be able with my job
hahah
unless im good at saving
lucid storm
I mean I am at an age were I'm too old to still have them tell me what to do, but it is what it is.
queen juniper
i feel like as long as im living rent free in my parents basement its fine for them to tell me what to do lmao

Wait so are you just leaving your parents lmao
lucid storm
Oh is the A seat comment not related to the screenshot?
queen juniper
ill figure out something for my mom
tentatively ill have her sit further back in row o but hopefully i can snag another g before the concert
normal tundra
That was for Cassidy who is interested in the ticket I'm selling her
normal tundra
fck I'm not canceling seats. Ticketmaster would pick them up and sell at a premium instead
queen juniper
do they let you cancel seats or nah
no but i can resell my o
normal tundra
I'd rather sell it for standard price
dusk vessel
Not right now. The event organizer didn't allow that feature for refunds or selling yet
queen juniper
to someone here
broken nest
i was gonna move from O to L for same price
but i realized L is further right
away from the center
normal tundra
Arm yourselves<:InSomnia:1064534393751883806>
It's cool they have different attachments for us. I only have the standard lightstick
queen juniper
the plat tickets go down in price over time right
broken nest
if it means im 8 rows further ahead
that sounds way more expenisve ;__;
queen juniper
that sounds way more expenisve ;__;
its only about $60 more than my current seat
bc they got it while it was still fresh and not plat
lmao yeah no my dad says i cant take it, i need 2 tickets
normal tundra
Hahaha yeah I wouldn't want to leave someone alone with strangers
queen juniper
so dw about it go ahead and sell it on #1064965195107143750
broken nest
bc they got it while it was still fresh and not plat
ahh thats not bad
pseudo python
Yeah I got one of those A seats
Are you willing to sell?
normal tundra
nonono I had to skip last year's SF tour so I'm holding onto this seat this time
queen juniper
how likely do yall think a comeback before the tour would be
queen juniper
im ok with clowning and pure speculation
forest obsidian
If they plan on additional tours later in the year, maybe they split it like last time
queen juniper
hell, im the one who was convinced bts's map of the soul shadow would come out in august 2019
forest obsidian
with NA tour then release and EU tour
normal tundra
If just clowning, a comeback before March 18 would prob have the current plat ticket prices sitting pretty
They would be undervalued imo
queen juniper
so if i wanna buy these plat tickets eventually and im gambling on their prices dropping, i need to do even more gambling and buy them before a comeback is announced?
forest obsidian
They would also have to squeeze it in reasonably soon given it's a little over a month before the tour starts
broken nest
damn the GA in LA is all standing?
dense ridge
Sadly yes
broken nest
that looks wild
dense ridge
I’m gonna be standing in the back
broken nest
My GA tickets at wiltern were probably my worst time haha
dense ridge

dense ridge
Did you wait 6hrs in the hot sun too?
broken nest
have to camp to get better
dense ridge
My god that was rough
lucid storm
Is it weird that I like standing concerts?
broken nest
kinda but if you camp and get front i dont blame ya
forest obsidian
It's fine if it's your thing or you can
dense ridge
You “Crazy” Mike for a reason
broken nest
lmfao
queen juniper
honesly in my experience at seated concerts ive stood up for most of it anyway
forest obsidian
but a lot of people dislike having to wait all day in line and then more during for a good view but it's all subjective
broken nest
its annoying at taylor concerts
cuz everyone stands out their seated
so its either stand or cant see
haha
dense ridge
The waiting part for first come first serve is the shitty part about standing concerts
queen juniper
i can stand for 3 hours during a concert
forest obsidian
That's the nice thing about seated, no need to wait all day or worry about spot for bathroom/food/merch etc
queen juniper
i just stood for 11 hours outside in the hot sun, i can handle 3 more while seeing dc live
dense ridge
I went to see Loona in platform shoes at the Wiltern, thinking I learn my lesson from DC the month prior and fk me that was rough too
lucid storm
I've never been to a concert where people actually sat the whole time. Seated or not seated.
broken nest
thats why you get best view
dense ridge
You also got ppl from behind pushing you around as they try to reach the front so that’s annoying
lucid storm
Also I've been to a concert where I was so far away that I had to watch it on the big screens on the sides of the stage to tell what was going on.
queen juniper
Also I've been to a concert where I was so far away that I had to watch it on th...
wiltern last year was the first concert where i didnt have to do that
and holy fuck, actually being able to see the performers is a completely different experience
i cant go back now
forest obsidian
Yeah it's wild
queen juniper
every minute of that line was worth it
forest obsidian
Even being close it's such a difference even just between watching them up close vs recording
lucid storm
Usually there is an honor system, but at the last show I was at, some random old guy wedged himself into spot next to me.
queen juniper
yeah, at bts for example when i was in the back and had to use the screens in hindsight i might as well have just watched a fancam
broken nest
ah
lucid storm
This is how I feel about not being near the stage now.
queen juniper
but when you're in the pit and you can see with your own eyes and not someone else's camera that dreamcatcher is right there its cool as hell
thats the kind of experience i want from every concert now
lucid storm
Either see them up close or just watch a fancam.
forest obsidian
even when it's through your own phone/camera it's so different than just looking up or around it
forest obsidian
I think it's fine if it's certain parts you enjoy or for just memories but if it's whole shows and you are impairing others view it's kind of meh
I mean you do you because they paid to be there also, but idk why you would pay to be in person just to watch it through your phone
queen juniper
i think i'll be more comfortable with recording some parts this time around bc im going to 2 concerts
and if i miss a song bc i recorded it then i can see it normally at the other concert
celest folio
wow wtf didn't realize tix already went on sale, that was a stupid fast turnaround from announcement
oh well, at least I got something decent, how much were front row tix?
celest folio
well coulda gotten something close looks like, so that's a little sadge
annoying that los angeles is floor ga only
normal tundra
I think 250$ for standard and 500$ for platinum
forest obsidian
so No one was able to even get tickets for about 30 mins
celest folio
partly tempted to hit up la
forest obsidian
kept crashing and saying nothing was available
celest folio
oh well, at least I'm glad they're coming back so soon
forest obsidian
and by then it was 300-400 for front area seated resale
celest folio
this time I can bring my new waifu to see them
i assume mymusic will do some sorta vip thing again
and most of us will be in that lol
forest obsidian
Likely but might not announce for a bit like last time
The reselling is real though, tickets way behind what I got are going for 2-3x what I payed
normal tundra
It would be great if another platform was picked up with better ethics but ticketmaster has a chokehold on these venues
broken nest
I sad skipping La

I ain’t driving down there for that

Last time was nice in SF they had axs

I never buy camera gear new

Lulu if you’re thinking about better pics bc your phone camera isn’t cutting it, have you considered a new phone haha
It'd be unlikely people ask you to put away your phone at the concert
Def not the same as shooting with a camera tho

i've been tempted by that sony xperia pro phone
same sensor as the rx100, but it doesn't use the whole sensor 😦

There’s still a good amount of tickets if anyone is looking for a pair. Source: just checked Ticketmaster

There is but the ones in my desired price range are too far back.
Everything in the half not under the balcony is $200 or more.

I, like most, wasn’t expecting this. Even more with only 2 day notice on tickets
So I thought I was safe to spend beforehand

It was announced 2 days before last time also.

I mean i still got 2 stops but damn

the fansign announcement is what's going to break us

I was so jealous of that

Oh i cant even think about fansign
I’m still recovering from my last fansign lol
lucid storm
So I already kind of need to calm down on concerts.
forest obsidian
As much as I’d love to see them in person like that
Not really in the cards with it being this soon
Mine was just like a month and a half ago
Too soon
mystic isle
I’ll like to get to a fansign just once and then I’ll be good
mystic isle
How was the video one in your experience?
forest obsidian
It was pretty good
It was kind meh on the place they were at had meh connection
So a lot of people myself included had times of audio/video problems
Like we couldn’t hear the other or some lag
Someone had their call straight up just disconnected and when they got it back they wouldn’t let them talk to the person it disconnected on
Mine was relatively stable
Aside from the beginning with Yoohyeon
Which she couldn’t hear anything
mystic isle
Sheeesh. That’s my fear if I decide to do video and knowing that you might not reconnect.
forest obsidian
Which at least gave me this wonderful screencap
So at least i can look back and laugh a bit
mystic isle
Yoohyeon made you a personal meme the fan service is crazy good
forest obsidian
I would say Sua did too
A few fun moments with her than can be screenshot for meme purposes
Just made the best out of the situation
mystic isle
You maximized your experience for what you were given respect 🤝
forest obsidian
Sometimes you just gotta take what you get
In the end still got some cool time to talk with all of them along with the special photo cards and signed album so can’t be mad
digital needle
bro if there's a fansign or VIP I will cry
and then throw more money at them because why not, I'm already in to the tune of 250 bucks
digital needle
I had mine already lol. Won a ktown lose myself fancall with the girls back in 2020. I bought four albums and walked away with Yoohyeon as my bias
forest obsidian
I might buy a couple because a chance is still a chance but no shot I’m going deep like last time
broken nest
Damn 🔥
velvet ocean
Unless you have unbelievable luck
not for these
barrier to entry was as small as 5-10 and in Chicago's case 1 person got in on a single album
I expect competition to be fiercer but compared to how these normally go during an actual CB I think the chances are better
