I- 

7AM??? Good luck girlies stay strong and get good pics for the boards 

thank you both!! i will be at the pa show tomorrow so hopefully it’s there🤞🏻

i'll also be trying to line up in the morning if we don't get kicked out 

The venue in pgh says no overnight camping if any sort so I’m just gonna get there early in the morning and hope no one else is there. The venue is very bad at responding 

You’re going to need to get to the venue first thing in the morning, assuming they allow lines to form. Sometimes people are camping out starting the day before. And then be ready for a mad dash from the gate once they start letting people in. 
 
If a venue has a fast pass (or equivalent), you’re also going to want to get that. 

i still wish she would have kept the nature boy/a&w intro

Maybe we could meet up and tag team to the front

yes mam, that is my plan as well!!

This is it girlies. I’m getting there around 7am, is anyone gonna be there? :0

seeing her tmrw really hoping the jacket is in stock now after reading a lot of accounts of it not being there at all at other shows………. 

thank you both!! i will be at the pa show tomorrow so hopefully it’s there🤞🏻

alright so i called and apparently they aren’t letting anyone in to line up unti 2 even if you were dropped off… honestly i’m taking it with a grain of salt the girl i talked to said she thinks that will be the case but she didn’t seem 100% certain… regardless i’m still going early to check it out… this venue is a mess haha just google and see what happened with the dead and company concert here this summer🥴🥴

It wasn't at either show unfortunately 
 
I hope they'll eventually sell it online though

They didn’t have much Lana merch at the festival yesterday. Her next show in PA will probably give a better idea of what merch of hers is left cause each artist at the festival only had a couple of things out

i still wish she would have kept the nature boy/a&w intro

oh that pit was the TRENCHES!!! hell on earth. being on barricade all day for 10+ hours was actually insane and idk how i did that but i did. the fights i witnessed and the pain i'm in tho.. anyways here's one of many pictures i took from front row!!! what a night!

Yes, wasn’t really that useful because I had to get my bag checked 

wait is this law applicable for all states??? if so that would be amazing haha

just curious, was there a fast pass lane yesterday?

some are going to a concert, others are going to church

I was very close to the barricade at the center in Huntsville, which has a capacity around 8,000 (no lawn) and I'm told the pit was only about 500. There was a specific wristband for pit and they did check for it every time. The staff there is very helpful and only strict about the things that matter.
 
Preshow: In the morning/early afternoon, they wristbanded the first 100 or so people who lined up (some folks started camping Tuesday night for a Thursday show), and after some miscommunication between ticketing people and security people, they got those fans in first -- I was like 120 apparently smh and only that late because of, in hindsight, a foolish tactical error. The more femme people in line were incredibly decked out, gorgeous outfits and flowers and beauty to the heavens and back. My dadcore look was embarrassing in contrast.
 
Gate Time: Fans were increasingly nervous and anxious as gate time approached, but very polite. Everyone incredibly followed the staff's instructions and walked to the pit; I really give credit to those first couple dozen people because they set the tone. I made some friends in line and we just held hands between the gate and the pit so we all ended up together. We all saved each others space before Lana came on; some of them were significantly shorter than me so we just ended up in height order.
 
The Show: There was one small group near me, and really it was one particular person, who was kinda rowdy drunk but for the most part she settled down during Lana's performance (or maybe I was just able to block it out). Folks around me were singing but it wasn't overwhelming her vocals. It was crowded but not overwhelming (I cut my teeth in punk and indie so my tolerance is high on this front though so ymmv) except when she came down to the barricade. There was a pretty big crush as you might expect. One person near-ish me was on the verge of a panic attack, crying, but her group were so compassionate and everyone close around her gave her space and her place closer to the front once it was calmer. The venue staff passed out water bottles whenever anyone asked; in addition, they allow everyone to bring in an empty bottle to fill at water stations so hydration wasn't an issue at all (it also was a very mild night). I was close enough that the thing that normally bugs me the most -- people holding up their phones really high for extended periods -- didn't affect me.

absolutely🖤🖤🖤 my goal is to be barricade i hope we all get it🤞🏻🤞🏻
