It's a major hub. Every time I've been to a concert In Dallas, a lot of the fans are coming from states in the surrounding area. And companies are probably starting to release they have more of a market than just LA/NYC
Why the hell do all of my favorite Asian artists go to America when I go to Asia??? First Morning Musume now 2PM :((( Though to be fair they will be here in Beijing this month, but I don't have that kinda spare kuai laying around when I'm saving up for SS6.
I totally feel you on this. I'm out of the country when both 2PM and G.O.D. are in NY. I mean, the one time I was willing to spend $350+ on concert tickets I'm out of the country for business. It feels like someone doesn't like me and is doing this on purpose.
I REALLY FEEL THIS??? Except I DO stan them and they and B1A4 are the only groups I REALLY wanna see in concert but I just spent 250 for B1A4 if you count the hotel there is lit no way I can afford another concert - AND A MONTH AWAY? Like. what the HECK.
I /KNEW/ THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN I /KNEW/ AS SOON AS I DROPPED ALL THAT MONEY ON B1A4, 2PM WAS GOING TO TURN AROUND AND SHOW UP. like woooow if this was a month later or something I'd be TOTALLY ABLE TO but gosh THIS IS ANNOUNCED A MONTH BEFORE THE SHOW??? And they're gonna want big dollars for this? Ugh THE TIMING IS JUST SO WRONG FOR ME.
if they come to London i might jump on a cheap flight and go see them, they're apparently really fun live, but i don't have the time or money to waste to go see them in NYC :(
Ngl, if they came to Europe, I'd probably go. I absolutely loved Go Crazy and I realized that they're actually pretty likable and funny and not a bunch of stuck-ups like I used to think.
But they must have known about this for a while correct? So, why are the dates only now going up? Like why must JYPE treat me this way? I haven't prepared my heart at all for being in the same room as my favorite group.
My first kpop concert. My excitement is through the roof. I'm not the kind of fan that will buy shirts and posters etc because I hate clutter and knick knacks. But I will pay whatever outrageous concert price they decide on to see them in concert. Because it's still going to be less than a flight to Korea, bribing a k-hottest to get me decent tickets, finding a place to stay etc...
So I have a questions for fans who have been to kpop concerts before. Lol, how does one get a light stick thing-y???
OP, you are currently my favorite person for posting this.
From my K-Pop in the US experience, lightsticks were like this:
There were none at Infinite. None. At all. The only merch they sold were hoodies and tshirts and even then it was really badly organized.
Boyfriend showcase had more than enough merch for everyone, and it was affordable. Pretty much everyone in the audience had one of the tour light sticks.
B.A.P did not have nearly enough merch, and very very few people had light sticks during the concert.
So basically, it depends? Sometimes you have to pre-order through the organizer, sometimes you have to pre-order from Korea (usually through a fanclub service), sometimes they have tour-specific ones, sometimes the tour specific ones are sold at the concert, sometimes they're sold out... It just depends.
Big Bang didn't even fill the Prudential Center. The company is probably just aiming to fill it as well as they can. I guess it's the closest they can get to NYC without actually being in NYC. I wonder why only the small companies go for the smart strategy of booking smaller venues like BAP did. That seemed really successful.
I'm crying. I was so positive that they would only go to like LA and NY and they're fucking coming to Dallas AND I get paid this weekend. This is all I've ever wanted in life. this will be my first kpop concert yall!
why is it the day before the perfume concert? sobs i would really like to see them live but idk if that's possible for me TT damn it kpop stop coming in the same month as perfume im gon fight u all
The fact AOMG concert in NY is the day after....no comment LMAO But I'm so happy I passed up on that one so I can go to this. My bestie is the biggest 2pm STAN (She doesn't like Kpop but like 2pm) so she's going to cry lol LITERALLY screamed at work seeing this!
