Boggles my mind too. I’ve been to sold out shows before where you can barely move but have been able to move up and get a good spot. You can always get a good spot if you show up around doors or even after doors. The more I think about it the more weirded out I am that someone would actually spend 4-5 days standing/sitting outside a venue (and sleeping, which is extremely dangerous no matter where you are). If I did that I would honestly feel like I am not only wasting a whole day but that I should be doing something more important or valuable with my day.
I guess people need to decide what they value more...getting there at a normal time and potentially sacrificing being 10-15 feet away from the stage vs sacrificing hours/days worth of their time to be in the very first row. I don't get it personally, but to each their own. I'm also old and don't like people and like to stand where I'm not being swarmed and where I can easily get drinks/go to the bathroom if I have to.
Usually when I camp for twenty one pilots shows, We schedule bathroom breaks, times we should go to restaurants/fast food places and usually there's someone in line that would let us use a hotel shower. We brush our teeth in public restrooms and I actually sleep good in the tents most nights. I've not had one time that I camped out for a show and had a bad experience or even remotely felt uneasy or sick. It's all just been good times + you'll meet new friends! I do however agree that if the fanbase wasn't this crazy, I wouldn't be camping. I just want to be barricade for my favorite band.
I'm going to Pittsburgh tonight and I'm on the floor. I'm showing up after the opener and I'm 100% sure I can be dead center with a great view. Maybe it's because I'm tall and can see over everyone but I've never ever found a reason worth camping out days before a show.
The Pittsburgh show was incredible. Easily in my top 5 favorite concerts ever. I loved the setlist. Better than the Cleveland show last fall. Sad to see people not knowing Vessel songs but I understand. Glad they play a few from it.

They'll probably be using the same staging/production. However, they've done 3 legs already and the setlist has been (slightly) different each leg. So I imagine they'll continue switching up the set a little bit. They did soundcheck Tear in My Heart and Migraine before the start of the previous leg, so it's possible those might make the cut.
How has this tour been doing? I know leg 1 basically sold out the day it went on sale but Trench has had a bit of a cooler overall reception than Blurryface and I don't think a lot of the leg 2 dates sold out.
turns out im going to the Cincinnati and Minneapolis dates for the fall tour. Gonna camp for Cinci then head to Minneapolis to hang in the back. If anyones going to these shows i'd like to meet some people!
Same here. What I don't get is that a lot of people signed up but they don't have money for tickets like why sign up in the first place
I didn't do this one but other Verified Fan presales I've done have said the codes are account-specific (meaning you can't share them with others).
