Of course! And honestly this is a once in a blue moon experience so I would wait all morning too. At the barricade most of us were only mouthing along and it was great because we could actually hear her sing. Just depends on the vibe of the other attendees. Being at the barricade is magical enough to the point where you don’t really care what the people around you are doing lol. And I know that at other shows people wrote their # in line on their hand. They’ll probably do the same in Brandon. I’m sure if you’re outside waiting and need to leave to eat/use the restroom you could tell the people around you to hold your spot. Once you’re at barricade it’s hard to leave unless someone physically holds a spot for you with their body. In TN I held someone’s spot at the barricade while they used the restroom so it’s not impossible. I went alone to my show and I was able to make friends so don’t worry! Quincy I am manifesting barricade for you!!!!

I did pit & got barricade for Tennessee but obviously it was a different system since they had numbered wristbands and wouldn’t let anyone on the property until 3. People at the Austin date said there was a bit of a stampede when they let people in. If you wanna get barricade I think getting there around 7 am or so would be reasonable. There will probably be 15+ people before you by that point. Some of the most notorious barricade warriors who follow Lana around (w/o naming names) are attending that date tomorrow & they’ll likely camp out. Have fun, Quincy! I think if you get there early in the AM you’ll get barricade. I’m a bad influence but I would say F it and buy a pit ticket because they’re so cheap. Gotta take advantage of these small venues.

I might have missed it but did she go down to the barricade this time? I didn’t see her do it after UV. I hope she did for the sake of the fans!

If it’s the same white dress idc what anyone says I LOVE IT. She could wear it for each show I’d be happy. It’s my favorite of the Zimmerman dresses she owns.

I agree! I’ve watched every livestream since May but when I saw her live at the barricade in Franklin it felt like an entirely new experience. Magical bliss that brings you to tears. I’m positive the crowd tonight is feeling it too.

I think a lot of the critiques and complaints stem from us watching livestreams of every single show. I felt similarly watching her performances over the summer but once you’re actually there in person these supposed issues are the last thing on your mind. You’re just living in the moment and in bliss. Sure the set list could be modified and she could wear different outfits but overall the production she’s been putting on this tour has been great.

Did anyone find out what Lana said at the end that we couldn’t hear? I’m so curious. @Elle I’m so happy you got such a special, personal moment with her. You deserve it more than anyone!

I just love that white dress I’m not even mad that she’s wearing it again . It’s my fav

This is so adorable and I love the bracelet you made . So happy you got to meet Lana once again!

This crowd showed so much love for Lana and deserved a full show . I truly feel for them. I guess that’s the downside of playing at amphitheaters.

imo Franklin night one has been her best look during this tour. I’m also happy I got to experience A&W as an opener at the barricade given that it seems like she’s only opening with NFR from now on.

The tickets specify that the concert will be happening rain or shine and it at least looks like the stage, pit, and 100s sections are covered. I love how your storm chaser self is on it though

Honeymoon is such a nostalgic album for me. I became a fan in 2014 past the UV release date and Honeymoon was the first Lana album I anticipated. I remember her posting the Honeymoon snippet on instagram and being so stunned by her vocals on the track. Honeymoon was also the first alt vinyl I bought It is truly a timeless album that captures her artistry magnificently. It’s in my top three without a doubt.

That ring is everythinggg Also I’m surprised she didn’t take any song requests at either Tennessee show. I hope she brings it back sometime during this tour; one of the most special parts about her shows is not knowing what bonus song she’ll sing. She sang Terrence at my show in 2018 and it was so amazing.

.

Definitely worth it attending night two! I wonder if she’ll change up a few songs on the set list for each venue. There is such a beauty about her stage presence . Knowing we could’ve had Mariners is disappointing but it was so fantastic tonight.

She sadly didn’t come out lol

Nikki’s now singing Creep!

Nikki Lane is on!

I’m here for night two since tickets dropped a ton today. I’m not in the pit but I recognize about 5+ people in the front who already met Lana last night & they’re right by the stairs. It’s unfair to fans coming tonight. I hope we hear a new song or two in the setlist though!

wrong thread

I was not expecting to cry as much as I did last night! When she got on stage I immediately started sobbing. How could you not cry when she’s this close?

I tried getting there in the morning but they were kicking out anyone that tried to line up earlier than 3 pm. I think I got in a line of cars at the main gate at 2:45 pm & my friend dropped me off. I was within the first 10 people in line for the pit wristbands. The way they handled pit was lovely. Made us all get in numerical order through security. Then past security they had us slowly walk to the pit area in a single file line. It was super orderly and not stressful whatsoever.

I got barricade tonight right in the middle! It was one of the most magical nights I’ve experienced. I was only a few people away from meeting her before she returned to the stage but I’m not even mad about it. Everything about the show was beautiful. She sadly spent less than 5 minutes at barricade. Such an amazing show overall. Well worth it
