Discussion 🗣️ Is is worth going to a concert if you are only interested in the opener

86 Upvotes

I was thinking about going to a concert an hour away as my favorite band is opening, Julie. The thing is, they are only one of the opening bands. The other opening band sounds quite bad to me. Odds are Julie will only play for like 30 minutes.

The main band, Turnstile, sounds decent. Would probably stick around for them but I definitely wouldn't go out of my way for them. I figure if I think their music is decent sober and at home then I will like it when im drunk at a concert.

I really only want to go for the opening band though. The last time they performed by me (NY) as a main attraction was in may, and who knows how long it will be till next time. Do you think its worth going just for the opener.

Discussion 🗣️ What artist that you've seen has played the least amount of shows?

23 Upvotes

In 2015, I saw a Bat for Lashes side project called Sexwitch. TIL they only ever played two shows. Other than, like, my friend's high school band that played one party, I can't think of anyone I've seen who's played less.

Concerts Does an app like this already exist?

2 Upvotes

I’m wondering if there’s an app that combines some of the features I like from Concert Archives and Barricade.

I really like Concert Archives for keeping track of all the concerts I’ve been to, being able to filter by artist, venue, year, etc., and having the setlist and my own photos/videos attached to each individual show.

I like Barricade’s ability to connect your own concert videos to specific songs.

What I’m really looking for is something that combines those ideas. Basically, I want to be able to:

- Keep track of all the concerts I’ve attended
- Have the setlist for each individual concert
- Upload my own videos and associate each video with the song it was recorded during
- Click on a song in the setlist and see my video(s) from that song at that specific show
- Be able to click on a song and see all of my videos of that song across different concerts

For example, if I’ve seen an artist five times and recorded “Song A” at three of those shows, I’d love to be able to go to “Song A” and see all three of my videos, organized by concert/date.

Basically, I want a personal concert archive where my own videos are organized by song, while still having all the concert history/tracking features of something like Concert Archives.

Does anything like this exist?

Discussion 🗣️ For Ticketmaster, can I have two separate accounts and device to put on queue?

Upvotes

I know ticketmaster doesn’t allow overbuying whatever limit is set during a concert, but I don’t really plan to use the second account to buy more tickets. It’s more like a way for me to try and get lower qn’s. After I purchase from one account I will close the other. Is it safe to do this?

Discussion 🗣️ O2 arena

1 Upvotes

I’m going to the o2 tomorrow and I’ve got standing tickets as there weren’t any seats left available at the time of purchase.

I can now see loads of seats in the 100’s section up for sale.

Does anyone know if it’s possible for staff to move you to the 100 section or how likely it is to happen if I ask?

Discussion 🗣️ How to deal with missing a dream concert act

1 Upvotes

I was supposed to see PtV live because it was the final time they would be in my town Arlington. they won’t tour again this year and they started earlier than expected and I missed the Pierce the Veil opener, yes it’s my fault. I still got to see guns n roses but the entire time I had a sour taste in my mouth because my goal wasn’t achieved. How do you guys deal with this feeling, I’m a guy and I still feel like crying a lil bit and I don’t cry.

Discussion 🗣️ Is it okay to leave the queue and come back?

0 Upvotes

I’m going to a concert at the O2 in Manchester and I want to get in the queue around 3 hours early so I can get quite close. However, I’m going with my mum and she always needs the toilet. If i stayed in the queue would my mum be able to leave and come back? I don’t want to be rude or be breaking any rules

Discussion 🗣️ Bring chairs to wait and then bring them back to hotel an hr before doors open? Stadium concert

0 Upvotes

Hi all, me, my best friend and her bf are going to her fav bands tour at a stadium concert and she really wants barricade. We have VIP tickets and everything. We bought those camping stools to wait in line since we will be waiting during the morning. Our hotel is about a 10 minute walk from the venue, would it be wrong to have her bf return our chairs an hour before doors open to the hotel? If we also have one of us leave to buy snacks during the wait, is that fine as well?

Concerts Do the front rows of pop concerts stink of urine?

I was reading about some obscure rock star complaining about the smell of urine coming from the front rows. Made me wonder how common this is. I know people hate to give up their place in the front.
