My first concert was Wanna One and it's still a very memorable experience for me, the music and the members were so beautiful, and I bought their lightstick there. Parking cost me $40 which was absolutely bonkers, they really robbed me blind.
My second was Monsta X, they had no merch by the time I got into the venue, so that was really sad. Overall I fell in love with their entire setlist for that concert and I still listen to many of those songs.
My third was AB6IX fanmeeting, they did not supply enough merch for us but it was such an amazing experience and I got to high-five the members. I was a bit disappointed at the end of it because I did not hold enough eye contact w/ the members to satisfy myself, but Daehwi and Donghyun smiled so brightly when we high-fived, that was amazing.
My fourth was SEVENTEEN, this has to be my favorite. The music, the members, it was so good. I sang along to Darling and had the time of my life, it definitely helped that the lightsticks synced at the venue so the lightsticks were constantly changing colors. My biggest complaint is how expensive the merch was for being such poor quality. The hoodie was $90, the fit was very small/tight, and the t-shirts are also incredibly thin and cheap feeling.
I also threw it in the wash and forgot to tie the strings so I had to fish that out which was a 0/10 experience.
My fifth was BLACKPINK, I was very very lonely at this one as it was the first I went to by myself. I was also exhausted by the time the concert started, ended, and then I had to drive myself home and I ended up crying on the way home. The girls were perfect, it was nothing against them, the day was just bad for me. I recommend buying the oversized crewneck because that has become one of my absolute favorite articles of clothing in such a short time period. The merch quality vs. pricing is much much better here than the SVT concert, you are buying quality with this good. I was bummed that the lightsticks in the venue did not sync like with Seventeen but BLACKPINK made up for it. They put all their energy into their performances and nothing compares to the hype in the venue than when Lisa performed MONEY. It was SO good.
I hope you have fun at your BLACKPINK concert, make sure to let me know how it goes
