![]() Whereas when you physically queue, there’s no holding area to waste your time.Īfter an excruciating tough battle online, I eventually got my ticket to the mosh pit! It didn’t feel real until that moment, but excitement over seeing my idols live overruled my feelings of anxiousness. ![]() This number isn’t based on first-come-first-serve, so even if you enter the website at the time of the ticket sales, others might still get their tickets before you. When buying tickets online, you will first be allocated to a holding area with a random queue number to enter the website. ![]() If you’re not working or in school, physically queue at the post office to get much better queue numbers. Pro tip: Open multiple devices or ask friends to camp on the website to help. Since it was my first time buying tickets by myself, I didn’t have anybody else to rely on in case I couldn’t get them. Ticketing day was also another stressful situation. There was no way I would miss out on seeing my idols live after all, and I didn’t want to regret not going and having major FOMO Unfortunately, after countless rejections, I succumbed to my fate - I had to wing it solo. Up until the day of ticketing itself, I was still looking for a companion. Sharing my insecurities on my Instagram story ![]() Despite being stressed but also determined AF, I had no luck from everyone I asked. I even went onto Twitter to ask accounts I’ve not talked to before IRL - yes, that’s how desperate I was to not go alone. For me, it didn’t even matter if the people I asked weren’t close to me, I just needed someone to accompany me so I wouldn’t feel alone. Prior to this “predicament”, the thought of going to anything alone never crossed my mind. Right after the ticketing announcement, I was frantically looking for people to go with me. I’ve been to concerts before, just never alone. Here’s the thing - I’m not a concert virgin. Reaching out to people through Twitter and text messages Looking for people to go for the concert together Attending A Concert Mosh Pit Along Taught Me To Let Go Of My Fears & Enjoy Myself Freely.Advice for others who are attending concerts alone.Looking for people to go for the concert together.Here’s a personal recount of my experience, in case you’re faced with a similar dilemma yourself. Eventually, I decided to brave going alone, and realised it really wasn’t as bad as I expected. I knew I would regret not going to the concert, but at the same time, the fear of being squeezed into a mosh pit all by myself striked utmost fear in my heart. Most of my friends aren’t NCTzens, aka NCT fans, and I was faced with the reality of the situation: to go for the concert alone or not go at all. See - I’m also an extreme extrovert through and through, and I’m not really fond of doing things alone out of fear of looking like a “loser”. However, ticketing was only announced one day before the official ticketing sales, so I struggled to find someone to go to the concert with me on such short notice. My wishes came true when NCT 127 announced that they’ll be performing at Singapore Indoor Stadium back in July. As a K-pop stan, I was dying to finally see my ult boy group, NCT, perform live. Concert season is officially back in business after the pandemic, meaning the return of that adrenaline rush from seeing our idols IRL.
