Yooooo my bestie loves breakfast food, I’ll absolutely check it out
I like getting the barstool seats on the right side. Really good conversation restaurant.
Also decently priced. Usually I spend ≈$25 when I'm there
That’s not too bad at all :00
Yeah
Have you ever been to Tommy's malt shop in Chaska?
If so, the malts/shakes at Wampachs are better. At least imo
I’m not up in Chaska often, I tend to inhabit just north or north west of the cities
Like the Maple Grove/Arden Hills kinda area
Ah
I head up there to visit friends and go to events though!
Nice!
Yeah I used to live in the Crystal MN area by the cities but we moved down to Carver a few years ago and I love it here. I don't think I'll ever get bored of the beautiful scenery here.
I’ve heard it’s really pretty over there :0!!
im in like a pretty chill and lowkey area. Now much for sights but much quieter than the city
Facts
The cities are really only good for music anyway 😂
Your photos are really good! How’d you rate the show?
10/10
100%
I've been to a few other concerts (not GK), one of them was also at 1st avenue; this one topped them all.
The room was mixed really well.
I also have a ton of videos I took, but my voice is in the background of basically all of them🤦♂️
Dude the mixing was AWESOME
I’ve probably been to north of half a dozen shows at first ave, one of which was a band that was mixed so poorly I couldn’t even tell they were playing my favorite song by them
Ooof
Yeah, when a room is mixed well, it sounds louder than it actually is. Mixed poorly however and 100db actually sounds like 130db and not in a good way
Oh yeah, been there for sure
Let me see if I’ve got video of that shit mix show for comparison
I went to a Steven Sanchez concert a couple years ago at first avenue and it was pretty good but WAY too loud
However, if you mix a room well you don't need to run it as loud to "get the point across" so to speak
No vids of that one concert 😭
But the point stands, this mix was awesome
They also sound just like their recordings which is so cool
Yes! Even Phoneboy sounded really good. That Steven Sanchez concert was mixed poorly for the opener and better for Sanchez
It was my first time hearing phoneboy, I was pleasantly surprised! Sometimes openers just fall short but they absolutely set the bar high for the night
Yes!!
I found out about them about a month ago (because of the concert) and started listening to a little bit of them.
They knocked it out of the park
I knew of em, one of my friends I went with adores them and has apparently been subbed to them since they started, she was so excited she got to meet them!
Nice!!!
Guessing from where you were you didn’t attend VIP? It was an awesome set up especially for a VIP show
Yeah, I was a bit to the right and behind the sound booth... Where were the VIP spots? Center floor?
We got early access to the venue, exclusive merch, and an acoustic concert before hand, so definitely worth the extra money
I ended up front and center so awesome from a show perspective, not necessarily from a recording/photo perspective
😮 Where were those tickets?
Because I bought my tickets all the way back in September
I got mine on axs
I use Band is in Town for tickets, it’s an app. You follow artists you like and they notify you
Same
Mine were also purchased through AXS
Hmmm
Bandisintown is really good
I should get that...
^^ for real
I got 4, maybe 5 shows coming up yet the next 6 months through band is in town
You can select cities around you and it'll notify you of which bands are coming to that area
Alternatively, you can follow a band and it'll tell you where they'll be
Sweet!
The bands also send out tour notifications and merch drops!
You also get emails about artists coming to your area so you can check out new folks, too!
First Ave has a birthday policy where if you show up on the actual day of your birth they’ll let you and a friend in for free, even if it’s a sold out show :)
Eyyy mines this Friday!
Happy birthday!!!
I just turned 19
Side note
I was STOKED when they played ground
Im turning 23 which is wild 😭
ME TOO
IT WAS BETTER LIVE
I think I got some of that one on video 🤔
Adult!!!! Nearly fully developed brain
So close!!
You'll hear me scream "YES" at the start of this video...
I don’t think I got the beginning cause it was so sudden but I think I heard you yelling that 😂
I was way too pumped at this concert, I daresay I was possibly one of the loudest people there 😅. My voice carries though so it could be that.
I learned quick in my concert going that I can’t sing along if I’m recording or that’s all you’ll hear 😂
YOU CAN SEE ME IN THAT VIDEO
What?! Lol nice
I think I sang a lot less in that video. But yeah, my voice is super present. You can also tell I was losing my voice.
Hahahahahaha
That's funny
I'm hoping they post that selfie with the whole crowd
I've been checking their insta but we'll see
Oh that would be awesome!
Wow, FRONT AND CENTER
I WASNT KIDDING
Yeah
Mine has a similar issue with some songs
That’s like 90% of the video I took lol
Lighting issue or not your phone still took a pretty decent video
I got a few pretty good clips of Phoneboy
You are surprisingly on key for concert sing alongs
I sound fine in the car, but concerts? Hell naw 😂
I got the majority of one of their songs for my buddy
Nice
Oh and I got the wheel of chaos
However if I get one of the videos of the later songs you can tell my voice is going out lol
I got some of it lol
Bro when we got there I sounded mostly fine if not stuffy, when we left I sounded like a chronic smoker 😂
So true
do you have the confetti throw?
Yes! Let me take a look! I know the end of that video is bad cause I got distracted trying to catch confetti 😂
I cropped it down, say hi to Evie!
thank you!!
They did post it!! (Donno if youve seen it yet)
I am right under Nick right there :0
Im like right here
That's me
forehead reveal
Yooooo was I chatting with you??
you were!
Yoooooo nice to see we can stay in touch!!
me 🙂
I think that's me with the closed eyes
As photogenic as usual
I think I briefly chatted with you, too! Did you get the drum sticks???
Let’s gooooo!
i do too😭
That right there is a goated reaction image
Hello I was here
better late than never 🙏
I had to bully her to join lol
If any of yall ran into a bad bitch with a Mohawk, that’s her 😎
Almost everyone I talked to has made it to this chat now
Anybody know if that guy with the 80 year old camera posted those photos?
Whee z e
Thanks babes
It wasn't me but I'm pretty sure that camera is closer to 110 at this point, I took the picture for them and I'd also love to know how it turned out!
I was in very back lol. Plus im a very short person in front of a bunch of tall people (5'0"). Hand reveal??
I'm just gonna post some of the less than a minute ones I took
Ignore my screaming and shouting
Bro next time they come to Minneapolis I'm getting vip.
SAME, my friend wanted a water and we could NOT get back to where we were (also 5"0)
My friend needed to go to the bathroom and has sensory issues so we moved from the back of the pit to the back corner. We were near the bar do it was easy to get water
Yea definitely!
Sensory issues at first ave are extra bad if you’re on one of the sides, so warning to yall if you see a show there again
Yeah them speakers are crazy
Thanks for the tips! Yea we had a good time tho!
I grabbed some special concert ear plugs and they worked so well, I usually have to hide in the back because of the speakers but I was right in front of them and they worked a treat
The ones I grabbed were 20 dollars from electric fetus
Usually if you’re in the middle it doesn’t matter where you are and you’ll get minimum hearing damage without ear plugs lol
Anybody in the MN area coming to the Joywave concert tonight by chance?
That answer was a no and they are mISSING OUT
Yea h
