Freshman blowout: FER-05 edition

Are you underestimating the power of small details? 🙂

Maybe, but I really don't feel like dragging myself over to the campus at 9:00 AM just to hang out until 2:00 PM. Honestly, that’s a bit much for me at my age.😉

That isn't really the point—I just highly doubt people are going to be obsessing over political documentaries enough to cause a massive rush at Spider. We've got 2,000 seats available, so we can afford to be selective...

Anyway, could someone tell me what time the box office closes? I need to know when to swing by for tickets. Why wasn't this clearly listed at Kic?

Give me a break. Honestly, just kick Edward out already; he won't listen to anyone. 😬

You can always just hang out at Kset cafe. Last year was such a zoo that people were practically falling off the balcony.😁

Well, I have to agree. Personally, I'd rather only listen to atheists.

Robert Wright4 said:Man, I'm with you. I only want to hear from atheists.

Including Presidents and the KCP. 😬

hollowseal33 said:forget about those Cincinatos. honestly, just get Eminem off the lineup, nobody wants to listen to him anyway😬

Maybe if Ed and the Lieutenant finish up last, I might actually make it home a little earlier.🥳

😁

hollowseal33 said:Both the President and the NCP... 😬

Well, I’d love to have the President too—but I suspect I won't make it that long...

Facts. 👍 👍 👍

Robert Wright4 said:Man, I'd love to see the President too, but I doubt I'll live that long.

Just skip JJ and Cincinato and you might actually make it to the President.

I want to see everything... except Ed.😁
Goodness, I've already seen most of it...

Anyway, does anyone want to buy a ticket? 😁

Forget the concert. I broke my left thumb... No clue how I'm supposed to play in NYC today...

AGAINST ME! And I hate music?

It will be fun to see 😁

Well, I just got back. I arrived right in the middle of that chunky President's speech. Honestly—I think those nineties shows in Philadelphia were better. This was just mediocre... nothing special. Eminem was his usual self, too—I barely even listened. Just more of that atheist rap stuff. Didn't catch the Lieutenant either; had to head out.

Banderas, correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel like there were plenty of unsold tickets left. The only real crowd was when Ed was on stage. And even then, it was minimal. The sound system was... well... Starbucks was easily the highlight of the night. 🙂

Everything went great on my end. The crowds were actually lighter than I anticipated... oh, and the sound system was solid 👍

There wasn't even a crowd, tbh... there were barely any people around, so you could pretty much stroll between the halls without hitting anyone—the only thing was I kept tripping over that one mirror near the ballroom area..

Same old story, didn't really vibe with it. Just atheist rap nonsense. Didn't catch any Leut either, had to head out.

Banderas, correct me if I’m wrong, but I feel like there were plenty of empty seats left. There was a bit of a crowd only when Ed was on stage. But even then, just a little. The sound system was... well, let's just say Starbucks was the highlight of the night. 🙂

Can't really correct you, I wasn't 😢
Tomorrow's Company is sending me to Montpelier for a week, and since I have a mountain of prep work to do, I couldn't afford to be a total wreck today. 😢
Eto, after ten freshman orientations in a row, I figured it was finally time to skip one. 😁

Wait a second, where exactly were you? The sound was so "good" that you could barely hear anything near the bar. I was standing just a foot away from the speakers with two friends while Eminem played, and we were having a perfectly normal conversation... then there was that moment where Ed sang for a few minutes with his mic turned off... Total disaster.

no idea said:Everything was great for me! The crowd was actually smaller than I expected... oh, and the sound system was solid 👍

The sound was honestly terrible—at least back by the bar, you couldn't hear the vocals at all. I was standing near the middle during Kid Kong's set and it sounded relatively okay there, but behind them? Total disaster. Fat and Atheist were awesome, though, and so was the guitarist from Kid Kong (too bad he didn't take his shirt off) 😍

I'm glad it wasn't too crowded so you could actually move around, and the air felt so much fresher compared to somewhere like an old warehouse venue.. 😁
