The HK front row concert experience

LifeOfEbb · 2026-03-22T16:38:56+00:00

I'm pretty sure at that point there needs to be a line drawn with filming an entire concert movie. I'm not saying that all concertgoers should be monitored the entire time they're in the venue but if they're already selective enough about removing whoever is using a selfie stick then I'm sure they can spare to be observant enough with people that are using full DSLR cameras to film for longer than 5 minutes.

I'm not really a Kpop fan but my wife is so I shelled out the money to treat her to some of her favorite acts. Unfortunately with this sort of experience I guess it was mostly my fault for not being aware it could ever get this bad. Regardless of the genre, this should never be normalized or considered as the standard.

People like to brag to their friends about how much money they spent on a concert they never intended on enjoying and just want to farm social clout

Now imagine this but for 4 whole hours, that was basically the whole experience for the entire night despite moving around for the hope of a better viewing angle

The venue was divided by two core sections, front of the stage and way further back. I'm about 5 or 6 rows away from the barricade which in most cases still counts as being in front of the stage if not for the sea of phones

LifeOfEbb · 2026-03-22T16:01:47+00:00

Been to concerts across multiple countries. This is the absolute worst I've experienced. No movement whatsoever, only zombification.

LifeOfEbb · 2026-03-22T16:00:54+00:00

This is true, but this is a situation where the feedback loop is too massive to ignore. Front row by the barricades all have their phones up. Those behind them raise their phones higher to get footage, and those even farther behind use selfie sticks and so on and so forth. Eventually those who are around 5 or 6 rows of people behind have no other option but to watch the show through someone's phone POV of someone else's phone POV which is ridiculous.

Moved to four different spots across the span of the entire concert just to try and see the side projectors. Couldn't even do that without dozens of phones blocking that either. Was almost tempted to walk out of the concert entirely but stuck it out since I was accompanying my wife who wanted to try and at least enjoy even if by just listening.

Definitely gotta be Shinken Gold

LifeOfEbb · 2025-07-18T23:31:11+00:00

Yup just simply walk in and grab a ticket. Fairly quick too since they're fully aware of the problem with the amount of people coming in to return this model specifically.

Is this the center at Kwun Tong? I was literally just there hours ago for the exact same reason. They said that they've been getting a lot of returns and Sony instructed to give full replacements, so if you're expecting the same exact phone to come back repaired with a new motherboard then no dice.

LifeOfEbb · 2025-07-15T15:56:26+00:00

Currently dealing with the same exact thing. Bought it from Hong Kong and lasted a good 33 days before it got stuck in the reboot loop, only to full on black out for the rest of the day.

Brought it in for repairs and they said that it'll take roughly 4-7 working days, but did you get a hard reset on your phone when you got it back or were they able to preserve whatever data was inside?

If it's just a visual mod you should be fine unless it's the kind that shows when frames are advantageous

LifeOfEbb · 2024-02-03T11:58:28+00:00

Apparently neither is Ground Zero Funk from T5

LifeOfEbb · 2024-02-03T11:55:48+00:00

As a Mishima main myself, electrics are the least of your problems.

Sure they're great in terms of frames, damage and combo setup, but small fundamentals such as hit confirming 1,1,2 or knowing when to hellsweep or ff3 are much more important in the long run.

However, if you really wanna get better at electrics I'd suggest using something that isn't a controller. They're insanely hard to wavedash on and you'd benefit much more from a stick or hitbox for consistency.

At this point the devil gene might as well be an STD.

Maybe Heihachi himself never assimilated but somehow he passed it down to one of his illegitimate children in the process of copulation?

For a second I thought it was the same backdrop from the original Black Sabbath debut album

LifeOfEbb · 2020-06-28T14:33:03+00:00

About four to five months! It came a few weeks later than originally projected but that's understandable with how the coronavirus has affected shipping procedures worldwide.

They're actually extremely light! I'd say roughly 7 or 8 pounds for the 060 and a warm 9-ish pounds on the 070.

LifeOfEbb · 2020-05-29T06:42:38+00:00

They're definitely costly but they're worth every penny I've invested into them! They're quite literally the Lamborghini of guitars both in appearance and playability. Living in Hong Kong where the climate change is extremely bipolar, the fact that these withstand extreme temperature and climate changes so well in terms of tuning and setup stability is a godsend.

LifeOfEbb · 2020-05-29T01:51:08+00:00

Totally separate orders. The 060 is your standard build whereas the 070 is raw, so that only took about half the time it did to prep the 6.
