Unbelievable.

😬 😬

Just fail out of college like I did. Then every day will feel like a weekend—except Sunday, obviously, because Sunday is a dead day. 😁

Also... when does this even start? Anyone got a link? God, what a mess... 😁

And is it really free? Because my family and I are definitely working with a pretty tight budget right now. 😬

This is absolute nonsense.

When is this actually going to start, seriously? Does anyone have some cousin living in New York City who can just shoot them a quick text and let us know? 😁

Supposedly at 7 PM. I saw it on the MTV Island site, so I think that's what they're saying.

I managed to talk my group of friends into it, so we're all heading up there together. 😁

That short??? I guess it's a shame... Though I suppose some people will be happy since they have to work Friday morning. 😬

There might actually be more Americans there than the local crowd. 😁
But hey, I guess that’s just how it goes with concerts that aren't too far from home. 😬

I am curious if I heard correctly about the Nouvelle Vague show being scheduled... those people are quite attractive and have that specific laid-back vibe 😍

Yikes...

Over 50,000 people. This isn't really my scene.
Just endless crowds of kids between 12 and 14...
Honestly, it’s enough to make you want to scream.
The city clearly wasn't ready for an event this size; they didn't even bother setting up shuttles to run from the stadium to Times Square...
If anyone wants some photos, shoot me your email via PM...

We had such a blast!!!
We actually rolled up right during the Doggy Dogg show, which was seriously awesome. It was pretty hot out, though we did get those nice little gusts of wind every now and then. Honestly, I don't think I could've survived ten hours out there in that heat, but man, it was a great time.

I showed up just before Garbage started their set. We actually stepped out to grab some beers, but I still managed to catch about 90% of the show. 😁
Since they were playing alongside the Dow Chemical brothers, I was happy enough to stick it out. Honestly? Pretty satisfied. It was a solid performance.
I only caught one song by Snoop Dogg because we went on a second beer run, and by the time we got back, we’d moved closer to the stage. As for SD, it kind of bummed me out... 😬

Then the Dow Chemical bros came on... Between the inevitable shoving to get closer to the stage, we basically caused an international incident, though it got sorted out pretty fast. After that, the rest of the "crew"—me and the rest of the crowd—just vibed through the rest of the show. It was great. Actually, it was genius! Lasted about an hour and a half. An hour and a half of pure fun.

Don't even ask about the setlists. 😁

Just wanted to tell the people who couldn't make it that they missed out on a killer night of fun and overpriced beer. 😁

P.S. Some maniacs were doing motorcycle stunts between Garbage and Snoop Dogg. 🙏 🙏 Those guys have balls of steel. 😬

P.P.S. Like Roose Bolton says... A bunch of teenagers... 😬 Not that I cared or anything. 😲 😁
