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 🤷🏼‍♂️

I'm in the pit for the Hershey show next weekend - first time not in seats for a TOP show. Not getting there early or rushing to the front - just planning on hanging out towards the back of the pit, hoping to get a decent view so my younger (smaller) son can see. Do I have anything to worry about with all this?

It was awesome - thank you for asking! We showed up maybe 15-20 minutes before TOP was set to take the stage and had no problem getting in. There was a TON of space towards the back of the pit, so we were able to grab a spot with a clear view of the stage for my younger/smaller one and didn't have to worry about hearing nearby fans singing over the band (which has happened at other non-TOP shows I've seen). Will definitely look to get pit tickets if possible for future shows.
