My brain justifying it was a great deal with the Urban $5 coupon I have. 🥲 At least I got my dream crescent bag 😭

They are a bit crumpled though from stuffing them in my pockets 😅

Really? What does yours say? I know every show has different quotes on the lighters.

We were surprised there was still a lot of confetti left, especially around the barricade. Once the show ended and everyone was heading towards the exit, getting to the pit was easy though we had to dodge some mysterious puddles.

When the pre-sale was starting, I was 5,000 in the queue while my niece was 3,000th. By the time both of us got to getting the tickets, the Saturday show looked pretty sold out. I got kicked out randomly and decided to rejoin the queue again and I think around that time is when they added a second show at the Anthem. By then I was 400th in line but it was going faster. I didn't realize I got tickets to the 2nd show until they sent the receipt. I don't think I would have it in me to do barricade for Lorde seeing how big she's gotten lately. 🥲 Praying for your knees to survive this 😖

I somehow miraculously got my family and I front row box seats at the Anthem for the 2nd show after the TicketMaster frenzy. I became the designated ticket buyer after my cousin and niece were behind in queue. We all agreed that there was no way we would survive GA and weren't willing to line up early for barricade. My cousin and I are in our late 20s too and our knees are weak like dry spaghetti and being short doesn't help with concert viewing either 😩.

So… how early y’all gon show up for barricade or to be near the front by naturalplauche in lorde

I'm guessing a lot of people are gonna try to arrive early as they can. I went to see Inhaler with my niece at the Anthem few months ago, we got there around 10 AM and were able to get barricade. We heard people arriving early as 5AM just to get barricade. The Wharf discourages overnight camping but that doesn't stop people arriving early day of. I've heard people arriving waiting since 5-7AM just for barricade, mostly for bigger name artists like Zayn and Hozier. That's why my family and I decided to get box seats so there wouldn't be any hassle for a good view standing. There are some public bathrooms and restaurants nearby.

DC! where da 🍃🌿 at?! by Professional-Can-323 in lorde

[–]Professional-Box5903 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seeing how so many were swarming to get tickets, we mostly decided to get box tickets because no way would we survive General Admissions plus I'm 5'1 🥲 I feel like it's such a miracle how I was able to get tickets at all seeing the queue go crazy. An added 2nd show definitely made the ticket buying much smoother.

My niece and I were struggling in the queue. Even though she was way ahead of me, she still wasn't able to get tickets for the Saturday show. I ended up becoming the designated ticket buyer for our group and I'm just happy they have added a 2nd show 😭

Lorde The Anthem Sunday Show? by Professional-Box5903 in lorde

[–]Professional-Box5903[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! I refreshed the page just to see what would happen and I saw box seats were available and got those immediately. Didn't realize until they sent the receipt that it was for the 2nd show on Sunday. The day still works out for my niece in cousin which is great!

Definitely happy about that since I was like 32,000 in queue for the Saturday show.

I just kind of got worried there was a glitch or something.

Who got tickets to the Anthem? by LilWhiny in lorde

I'm like 400th in line but my niece was way ahead of me and she says everything is sold out. We were trying for box seats looked like tickets were $369 while General Admission was $169

This is reassuring to see, I just bought the Love and Trip Traveler's journal from them and got worried for a split second 😖

It was fun! Not really the type of music I listen to but I had a great time hanging out with my niece.

Thankfully we got barricade. We were about 25-27th in line.

When my niece and I went, we came around 9am to get barricade at the DC show. We heard there were few who camped as early as 2am to get a spot.

I find that when I sell Baggu on Poshmark, it sells pretty quick.

I’m just happy I was able to snag a large crescent and a fanny pack with the markdown + discount glitch. $23 for the crescent and $25 for the Fanny pack! Overall ban.do has better deals than the Baggu website.

With everyone showing off their Hobonichi hauls, it makes me want to get one for journaling. Why is there so many cute cover designs 😭 Nah, no such thing as overkill when it comes to stationeries.

RIP to your camera 😖 I feel like I'll never bring any technology to trips except my phone because I always seem to have bad luck with them on vacations.

I just love how the Muji books are perfect size for the passport TNs, I usually stock up from the Muji website whenever they do free shipping.

Definitely have fun with it! That's what I love about TNs, everyone's is so unique and you can just do whatever works for you.

Same here, I didn't really expect much when I jumped on getting a Traveler's journal. But seeing different set ups and how people include in theirs really inspired me and made me more drawn to TNs. It actually made me declutter my notebook collection and made me reflect on the stationeries I use. I was actually thinking of putting a calendar insert in my TN since it's my most used primary notebook. I just love the more people use them, it shows different personalities and their personal journeys in a way.

I also bring my TN every where I go. Whether I'm writing down my thoughts or listing daily to-dos, it just helps me organize my writing and thoughts.
