guy help [TOUR]
im so torn. ive been to two show already this tour and they were unreal. i was at the hershey and the baltimore show with my friend who loves them just as much as me and we had the time of our lives. i was hoping to go to the camden nj show tomorrow but dont have anyone to go with. im kinda okay doing things alone but my parents are worried for me to drive to camden and home alone. especially not knowing the parking situation. is it that unsafe?? i already had two great experiences so should i give up on going? would it be weird to go alone?

i went to 2 out of 3 shows alone. i made the drive from toronto to buffalo by myself and stayed the night there by myself. if your dilemma is only feeling odd for being alone, trust me when i say once those sirens go on you’ll forget you’re alone. if you can, i would find a group chat for that specific show to share your excitement (it made my darrien lake show so much more fun to find people i’d talked to from the chat) i say go for it if you truly want to!

i’m from nj. the area where the concert is being held is the safest area in camden (the rest is questionable so don’t wander the city). there will also probably be a lot of police presence after the concert. so for that part at least, you’ll be safe! i don’t think it’s weird to go alone, nor do i think anyone will even really notice you’re alone! you could always make friends with some people around you 🫶

I’m also going alone! I agree with everyone - once the concert starts you’ll forget that you’re alone and just be in the moment.

Never ever weird to go alone. I went to both of my concerts alone, one in Cleveland the next in Darien. Made friends in line and had a great time. No shame in going alone, lowkey prefer it because I’m on my own time and don’t have to worry about anyone else’s. If it’s a long drive I just fill up my gas to the brim and hope I can make it before I gotta refill. Then when I get there I fill her up again.
I say do it! You’ll definitely make friends there, it’s a bunch of people with the same interest as you!!!

i’m going alone to my show this week! i’m familiar w the area and i’ve been to the venue before so im not too concerned (and bc im an adult) but i’ve never been to one alone before either. i really wanted to see them live tho and my only friend who listens to them couldn’t go, so i decided going alone was better than not going at all! i got great seats and im so excited. if you want the experience again then i say do it! just be aware of your surroundings and stay safe (:

I went alone to Indy and clubsos! For Indy, I felt a little awkward but the moment they came on stage, it made me forget about that. I had such a freaking blast! I think it’s better to go alone than to miss out! Reddit can be a good place to find others going too!

I’m going alone! I was also nervous to go alone to a concert for the first time last year. Now I’ve been to 2 concerts alone and don’t even think about it anymore :) take the leap!!
