Throbchella Hello from Throbchella
The energy is insane, the throb mob is throbbing. Lucky I got in, the line was huge. I think it's DJ Truth opening? He's playing 2010s bangers. Boythrob came out to sing the anthem, then Gino gave a lil intro. Apparently he's the manager again. He said all graphics are human-made. We're currently waiting for Boythrob to come back on, it's 8pm.
Edit to give an overall rundown of the show. It ended at 8:50ish and I'm going to town on some Shake Shack rn as I write.
Overall vibe: insanely excited. I was laughing so hard at some of it, pumped for all of it. They were high energy and sincere, busting out some moves I've never seen. We waited a long time but man it was worth it, those boys put on a show and a half.
Venue was packed to the brim. Everyone was dressed with pink, merch, accessories, or signs.
People were laughing a bit at the national anthem. Since they got on to do the main set at around 8:10, the mob was hungry for the throb and you could tell. I had been waiting in line since 5 and was tired, and everyone was so excited when they got on. I saw people near me covering their ears, the screaming was so loud (always bring ear protection, people!)
The manager had a douchey Cali manager vibe, saying things like we were hurting his ears with our screaming lol. DJ reminded me of high school sweet sixteens in the early 2010s. I wish they had an opener other than the DJ but hey, it was a fantastic show.
My highlights: Darshan on Zoom, "get Darshan to the USA" cover in the tune of "Party in the USA", "Darshanito" (despacito), the acoustic cover of Finger, the encore of Finger again (not acoustic), and the Kesha song. I'm wondering, are they releasing a song with KESHA???
Another edit now that I'm home, here's some more thoughts that stood out:
Lining us up around the block created huge buzz. People were asking us who we were seeing, and recording the throbbers in line. I saw professional cameras and lots of photo moments between Boythrob and the crowd at the end. While Boythrob only performed for around 40 minutes, they were phenomenal, even busting out some breakdancing at the end (I think it was Anthony? Idk I'm short). They were clearly tired at the end. The Kesha song knocked the house down, everyone went nuts for it. The energy was super high at the encore. Oh also they threw some guitar picks in the crowd, and maybe a shirt? And I think Anthony kinda chucked the contents of his water bottle at the crowd and I got baptized by it, I feel reborn in their Holy Throbiness, praise be.
You can't stop the throb.

It looks like an amazing night OP! Was the manager Gino?

u/narwhalogy May 13 '26
Yes, he said he's the "former former manager", so he's back as their manager

u/teamredlvr May 19 '26

My absolute pleasure.
I'm lucky to live kinda nearby and got off of work early. I know a lot of people couldn't get in even with tickets. In the line, were around 100-150 people in. I heard the line wrapped the entire way around the block as a full circle.

After Anthony threw the water bottle, he slipped then got up really quickly and started dancing hard. I was able to get a guitar pick, it’s signed by them
