More or less all their concerts are about 2.5 hours. regardless where they perform

usually patience is the key.. if we can wait and hope maybe they'll add a 2nd date for LA or there will be more people selling their tickets later on another note... I'm loving the recent Eye Contact series! Seulg's was the best cuz they showed a lot of their new dorm and rooms. I wanna see Irene's room cuz she said she has her own TV given from her mom... and Yeri has a gaming station in her room

at first I thought she was wearing the Prive bomber jacket but think it's the other one...

at this point I don't think you'll find anything "reasonable"... I'm having hard time just finding anyone selling in the section. But it's the day of the sale... when it gets closer to the concert dates usually people start selling their tickets when they find out they can't go (for whatever reasons).

yeah... thanks. i'm not giving up. mark my words... I will find one. well.. technically when I finally got in there were several seats open so if I wasn't picky I could have snagged it. But I'm very picky with my seating so I hold off and even pay more if I have to ... to get the seat I want. Or I'll be salty the whole time the venue is good size... the same as the others... i think LA is just a popular hot spot and central area for Kpop so it would be the fastest to sell out. would be nice but idk if their schedule allows for a second show. they have Dallas concert 2 days after. technically they might be able to do it and fly out right after the concert but I think they might be fatigue for Dallas if they did that.

yeah... I'm gonna keep refreshing and see if any luck happens for little longer. sometimes people release their tickets.

omg... me too. joined pre queue 30 minutes before they went live. but found out that didn't matter cuz once it goes live they still pick people at random. So was still placed 2000 people in front of me. now I'm finally in and theres like only 5 seats open. Eh... I'm gonna hold out and pray closer seats open up or someone sells theirs. so annoyed by this ridiculous queue system. whoever came up with it should be slapped (hard).

i'm in queue right now. .. me not taking my eyes off the screen

seems like so far out of all the venues NJ was the most competitive. I only see 1 handicap seat still open. the other venues are open seats scattered around

keep refreshing the page cuz seems to be changing constantly congrats!

i still see some blue seats open for NJ. keep refreshing cuz sometimes seats open up due to people not securing them fast enough of time limit exceeds etc.

i've been doing recon with the NJ, Miami ticketing. I'm going for the LA one which still has about 2 hours till opening. What they didn't tell people is there is a 'waiting line'. I hate those.. so annoying. your just sitting there waiting for your turn to buy tickets and you don't have a clue what's going on in the back end of things. Or.. if something bad might happen and lose your place in line etc. good luck to everyone!!

right... agree. of course music subjective but same time lets be honest... not all the songs that "top" charts are "good" because it's a good song. And there are a lot of "good" songs that don't even chart. Most of the time those are non kpop songs. But since fandoms flood it by streaming a lot of korean singers get pushed down and never get the recognition they deserve. And the whole "take note sm"... nothing is gonna happen. sm is gonna continue do what they want to do. They work with top music producers who know what they are doing. One thing I can appreciate is sm always does something different and not afraid to take risks. Sure... they can make the same type songs over and over again like other BGs and GGs just to please the public but that's boring. I'm not stanning a group just so they can be public friendly and top charts. and to hear the same type songs over and over again. Also when it comes to sm artists its really more about the brand name than their music. SM has always been seen as a "idol making" company so outside of kpop fans many people don't take their music seriously. They can write the most public friendly song and write and compose the whole album and people will still hesitate to take it serious. Let's take super junior's song Lo Siento. That kind of sh*t is popular with the whole Despacito vibe but the public just don't buy it.

oh thanks for the link. yeah... maybe I just don't notice but I rarely see their name or songs mentioned when it comes to charting. I think they may be along the same lines as nct. where they probably don't do that well on melon chart but other charts like itunes they do and excel on physical sales. which also makes me think.. i thought nct would be nominated too by now. but it's been so wacky with so many comebacks I can't predict who will be nominated let alone win anymore. Lol. seems like sm is only concerned about putting their artists on only the major ones (music bank, music core, inkigayo). I'm sure if they promoted on 'the show' or show champion, they would have won fairly easily. idk about m.core and inkigayo... to me those would seem harder to win. i think inkigayo is more digital sales? i heard inkigayo is their last stage too.

I see... I think rv still should have had the upper-hand since they came back almost 2 weeks ahead. since it takes at least a week for points to accumulate. but guess got7 physicals were just too strong. rv went on broadcasts and did a lot. since overall score is not only based on physical sales. but guess it just wasn't enough. while their charting probably would have made a difference. but I don't really see got7 charting that much better on melon.

well.. I'm not sure when got7 made their comeback but thought rv had enough time to take the lead when it came to physicals. also I was little confident when I saw Got7 had a "zero" in one category. I don't know if rv will have another big lead again after this week but think this is already their last week anyway so... I still say these weekly music shows are not that important (at least for them at this stage) but that look on irene's face was a little heartbreaking...

AWW... really thought they would win tonight. Miss out on what could have been a really fun encore with Exo and NCT there with RV. Got7 wasn't even there to accept so everyone just walked off stage after the announcement.

yeah... that's why I feel nowadays fans shouldn't pay too much attention to winning awards. especially these weekly music shows. It's good for new groups to get some exposure and recognition but groups probably 3 years and older maybe not so much. unless they have never gotten a win in anything before. Like I remember when oh my girl finally got a win for so long after debut they cried. and with new groups debut so often I think it's important to stand out. rv seems to do that without compromising to the current trends. it's one of the main reasons why I stan rv. a lot of ggs keep changing just to appeal to public or certain audience. rv has been that same quirky gg from day one

Lol. or maybe just joined the thread at wrong time. Never a wrong time to join the fandom!!! the thing is... whenever you get into a kpop group it's not because of how their current song it charting or how popular it's being received by the public. It's usually because of your own personal taste and what you find charming about the kpop group etc. At least that's how I get into most of the groups I like. whether people think they are 'flops' doesn't concern me. If people stan certain groups because of popularity... winning awards... chart topping etc. to me that's kind of a 'fake' fan. Joy looks muscular... or looks more 'muscle toned'. she working out more...?

I realize people like to wear over-sized jacket but this looks like it was made to be worn by someone else someone with broader shoulders... ?

OREO

oh... I see. well.. whenever I see the "lazy fandom" topic (this goes for anyone) I have to shake my head cuz I mean... you can't force people to do something. And we all have our own personal "busy" lives. Probably especially now with the year ending and holidays etc. And if you put pressure on people that might just turn them off to do the opposite. The best you can do is encourage and pass on the word.
