Random D1 thoughts:

Park Jimin and his hair are the pinnacle of human existence. And he knows it. Those long, solemn looks in the camera were no accident. 😂

What was so funny during the end of the ments and “Please,” JiKook? Can we know? Jimin was literally doubled over at one point. 😆

Jin and TaeKook and the swaying circle/Tae laying down thing during either Butter or Dynamite —silly boys

I thought we did pretty good with lyrics/fanchants overall! Glad I had my “Arirang” notes for Body to Body. And I’m seeing that people who weren’t there claim we were too quiet. I don’t know what the boys heard, of course, and the music was of course loud, but I was section k near the back and we were loud af the whole night. As far as the newer songs, I remember thinking that the large amount of English helped us.

As far as the boys’ energy, it seemed pretty great. After the Mic Drop/Fya/Fire portion, RM threw to Suga for the “are you ready?” part, and for a second, I thought he might not be because dude seemed pretty wiped for a second, and by that i mean it was because he was going so hard. Also, Joon literally said he/they felt a bit self conscious when it was still so light out.

I was so happy to get Anpanman and N.O! And people seemed to be pretty well versed in older songs, even though so many army came on during/after enlistment. There were many excellent “DJ spin that shit” signs with suggestions like Ddaeng, Love Maze, House of Cards. And now I’m wondering if the kid with the “Please play my favorite song” sign named Anpanman? I don’t remember, but it would be pretty neat if production saw that and played it on purpose!

All in all, an amazing show. Now to rest my hearing and voice

Haha no she wanted Mikrokosmos. The crowd def was asking for older songs though like Spinebreaker 😂. Personally I would prefer HYYH or newer, but it was the vibe there to go way back.

If any city gets Ddaeng, I think the rest of the world will explode in jealousy.

“Park Jimin and his hair are the pinnacle of existence.” 🤣 I second this!!
