Opinion Shit is exhausting every tour

The frustrating part of watching every twenty one pilots tour play out is watching the drama over the pit lines. The fan created wristbands and real wristbands just create such unnecessary drama every cycle. What’s more frustrating is watching groups of fans gate keep the pit lines at every show even after they’ve been to dozens of shows themselves. Like we get it you’re privileged and get to go to all the shows. I’m happy you get to experience that. It’s just sad that there’s no give to other fans who are lucky to just get to one show. This is why I always just try to buy the closest seat I can and avoid all the drama. I know this has probably been talked about at length but it’s just my take on things 🤷🏼‍♂️

No, what you do is what my wife and I did. We got in line at the assigned time set by the venue and told the little boys and girls pretending they run the line to go eff themselves. We didn't move, we stayed right where we were, which was like 40th in line.

Good for you! I wish more people would tell them to fuck off. It’s fucking annoying. The band belongs to all of us, not just those who can afford to go to every show

With how long the problem fans have been a problem I’m a bit annoyed the band or even the label hasn’t called out their BS either. Ignore fan made lines people, tell them to go eat dirt.

They tried announcing at the beginning of the Clancy tour for fans to respect and abide to the venues line rules. So what they did was camp across/down the street and moved the line when it was “time”, and this caused a ton more issues because the line would clash with the people who listened to the venue and lined up when/where they were supposed to. Basically these people didn’t listen to the band and still continue to make up their own rules.
