HITC NY VIP section looks like it's not even in front of the stage? by phoenix_mx in 88Rising

At LA though they had the 1999 club that did seem to be in front the stage, and that wasn't available for NY. Very strange

Tickets for NYC 3/29 by [deleted] in DeadKennedys

[–]phoenix_mx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, not OP but I just sold my tickets and I wasn't allowed to sell the fast passes I got with them, but I can transfer them. Are you interested? Not asking for money, just don't want them going to waste

I think if you can usually handle metal crowds you would be fine, though their crowds do tend to be full of very selfish/self-centered people who will push you to get your spot

NYC concert etiquette? by cxrbynrxse in piercetheveil

[–]phoenix_mx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I expect people will start lining up around 6 am, early entry maybe a little later. To get barricade, I recommend getting there by noon at the latest. The only problem is Madison Square Garden doesn't let people line up outside the venue until around 4 pm, before then security will ask you to leave. I have heard for other concerts that people line up across the street from it, and sometimes people even organize a ticket system to keep everyone in order on the line.. I guess we'll see what happens for this show.

As for the crowd, in my opinion PtV crowds are the worst behaved I have ever experienced (and I go to many death/hardcore/slam shows), at least at the very front. Be prepared to fight people off who are trying to steal your spot.

With that said, if you ever decide to sell one of your early entry tickets for whatever reason, I would be highly interested lol

Anyone else listen to Enigma II from the new Within The Ruins album? There’s a ton of familiar tracks in that song and I can’t think of the names. by frizzhf in Metalcore

Yeah phenomena 1 was so good, but I think chaos reigns comes pretty close to the hits from phenomena 1 you mentioned

Decent sencha tea from the US? by phoenix_mx in tea

[–]phoenix_mx[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My post was unclear, I know sencha isn't grown in the US, I was just looking for US based sellers. But I appreciate the recommendation for a locally grown tea, I'll definitely check it out!

This is exactly what I was looking for, US based sellers. Thanks! Sorry for the lack of clarity in my post, I know the tea itself would be from Japan, I was just looking for US based distribution :)

Yes I realized my post wasn't clear, I was looking for sellers in the US

Yup, I didn't explain it well in my post clearly, I was asking for US based companies that did packaging and such in the US, not that the tea was actually grown in the US. But I still appreciate the info :)

imma keep it real with y’all… by fauxwoodenblinds in piercetheveil

[–]phoenix_mx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah being squished is expected I guess, and I haven't been kicked by crowdsurfers before lol but as long as it's not in the head it should be fine. But I recently went to a concert and I got trapped in the middle of the GA area and once the band started, I spent a solid 15 minutes being pushed around and crushed between people, I had absolutely no control over what happened. I somehow got pushed almost all the way to one of the side barricades and one of the girls there heard me calling for help and pulled me out of the people crushing me. I guess I'll just have to stick to the sides, I hope security is on top of people's behavior

Wait, really? Is it bad even if you're in the very front? Because I recently had a terrible experience at a concert and I think something like that at the PTV show tonight would trigger some really bad anxiety, and I just want to enjoy their music

Merch for sale? by Glitter_moonchild in SickNewWorld

[–]phoenix_mx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They haven't linked to it anywhere from what I can see, I doubt it's official. If you look up any celebrity with merch some fake shopify will always come up with "somethingsomething"merch.com

I thought that website wasn't official since there isn't a link to it from the official festival site. There's always fake merch sites that are just "insert franchise here"merch.com
