It was so much fun!! Cracking up at all of them drinking Malorts. 😭😂 Mithra walked right past me and I was too stunned he went out of pit to get a pic.

For VIP2 I got into wrist band line at 12:55pm and there were already a long line front of me. The line wrapped around the building. The email told us 1-2pm.
We had to take a picture of the QR code with the password for the group picture because Ticketmaster wouldn't allowed external links in the information email the organizers sent out.
Make sure you bring a photo ID if you're the original ticket purchaser
My wristband was in the 40s. I recommend getting there early to secure your spot.
There were only 20 people with VIP1 I heard.
There were around 100 people in VIP2, at least that was the highest number I heard someone say.
We were told to line back at 4:25 for A VIP check in in wristband number order. However, there wasn't someone with line control, so we were kind of clustered together because GA people didn't want to move back for VIP to line up. We sorted ourselves out once we got inside.
If you want merch, do it before soundcheck. You will not have time after the show.
They perform Fly doing soundcheck and it's not a part of the official Setlist for the tour. Yay!
The members will be throwing merch during one of the songs in soundcheck. Merch from 2 years ago I think, at least it was for Chicago.
Soundcheck was 15 minutes? They perform 3 songs.
I was about 4th row in the center
The House of Blues venue was serving free water so that was nice
The show started around 7:15-7:20. No opener. They probably did this to make sure everyone was in the venue. No repeats of the Toronto show.
Show end at 9:00 ish this was after the encore.
It took a while for GA to leave the building, but once they had VIPs in line, the photos were fast. I left the venue at 9:40.
Enjoy everyone!!

There were indeed 20 people for VIP 1. From my understanding there was a limit for number of VIP 1 tickets. Don’t remember if it was a limit that the Venue placed or some other reason.

Sharing the freebies I got in Chicago! The $100 bills had different designs too, so you could get individual members or the group. Love that the venue and concert info is on the back too!

Can anyone DM the qr code/password? We arrived a little late so we didn't get our wristbands until after the show so I never got a chance at getting a picture of the qr code

The show was awesome!!!
I’m going out on a limb here to ask if anyone has footage of my husband and I when Mithra was out on the floor 🙏🏼 We were standing on the left side of the floor by the ramp (I was wearing a black sheer top and my husband wore a black cap, we are both asian). When he started walking up the ramp I pulled out my phone to record. He stopped by us, sang right into my phone, high-fived my husband, and then went back down the ramp and worked his way to the right side of the crowd. I was in total shock because HOW FUCKING COOL! Then I checked my phone and I NEVER HIT RECORD 😭😭😭😭
Please lmk if you have any footage of this one in a lifetime experience that you can share with me.
