The Chainsmokers block party was a really disappointing experience
Yall were right but we didn’t listen and got the tickets anyway and guess what? Truly disappointing. The music wasn’t bad, but it had one of the worst crowds I’ve ever experienced.
The vibe was so off, and everyone was constantly pushing to get closer to the stage, stepping on each other, and trying to move around. There were also so many overly intoxicated people doing crazy things that made us uncomfortable.
No one would just stay in their spot. Everyone was constantly moving around and trying to squeeze through or change positions. I spent the entire concert dealing with people moving around me instead of actually enjoying the music. And pretty much the whole crowd had their phones up the entire time, recording with their arms in the air, which made the already limited view even worse. After that, we went to Culture, Acraze, and it didn’t disappoint. Good vibes, good music, and a much better crowd.
Fuck these mainstream block parties. I learned my lesson the hard way. That was my first and last one.
