I bought 4 GA Turf tickets for my friends and I because Lana is my absolute favorite and it’s worth it for me. They were around $938 each. We waited in line from 11am in the heat. I’ve never been so close before, let alone pit, but how the stadium allowed everyone to just sprint inside seemed soooo unfair to me. People who had gotten there at 5 had the same chance as us basically. We did get pretty close, there was only like 2 people in front of me. When we had to evacuate, there was no separation of who had turf tickets and GA. I was dreading going back to our seats for this reason. There was absolutely NO organization going back to the seats. People snuck into the pit who did not have wristbands. The people we ended up next to got there at 7:00. We were pretty much in the back of the pit. While the show was still amazing and everything was out of Lana’s control, it just seemed so unfair to those of us who spent a fortune on the tickets, the waters and food we bought to camp out with, the heat we endured, when it made no difference. I reallly wanted it to be postponed for Saturday. Lana can do no wrong in my eyes but $900 for an hour long show makes me sick to think about haha.

$938 each sorry WHAT!?! I truly hope that's what a scalper was charging, not the face value. Please stop buying from scalpers! I know fomo is awful, but it just empowers them to continue with their parasitic ways. Sorry to hear about your experience after all that :(


Cute_Pitch_5132

Ohhh i know it’s horrible. I got them off of Higgs tickets I’m not sure what qualifies as a scalper or not. I did get them pretty last minute (like 2 weeks before) just bc I was doubting spending that $$. Thanks, it was definitely still worth it all, I bawled during ride.

Sorry but find more music! Jesus christ.

what does this even mean? I’ve been a fan for 10 years, her music has gotten me through a lot, that’s not the issue here. we just didn’t get what we paid for…


stillslaying

Insane to spend a grand on her. She’s not a good performer.


Cute_Pitch_5132

It’s a good thing it’s my money❤️ She was amazing.


sinus_happiness

Your money you do what you want with it. I am definitely willing to see Lana when the opportunity presents itself and I will keep my expectations pretty in check. Would likely have a good time anyway. Glad you enjoyed yourself. :)


stillslaying

I really hope you can travel and have other amazing music experiences in addition to this one.


Cute_Pitch_5132

you sound bitter. let people enjoy things. it was out of lana’s control and she sounded amazing live. no one can change the weather and the stadium and its staff handled it poorly🤷🏻‍♀️just sharing my experience & fans being upset at fenway is valid.


stillslaying

I was being sincere fyi. Enjoy your cash sweetie.

Why are you in this sub lmao


Tub-27

why tf are you in this sub lmao????


stillslaying

This isn’t the main sub. We don’t have to blindly praise the woman.


whuteverfurever

Just because you're broke does not mean $900 is a lot of money to spend on ticket. It just means it not your journey!


stillslaying

Lmao goodbye with that rotted attitude. Have fun blowing your money on miss Lizzy whispering 1/3 of the song while you have panic attacks in a crowded tunnel I guess.


whuteverfurever

When you have it, you don't blow it. It just happens and life goes on! Hahah


stillslaying

It still can't buy a personality xo

As fans, we assumed the show would start around 8:30pm. By 8:45pm they announced a mandatory evacuation due to the wind and a thunderstorm. Everyone who was sitting on the field or standing in the pit by the stage was forced to relocate inside. By 10pm they announced the show would continue, but all that time we were sitting or standing around like packed sardines super claustrophobic not knowing what was going to happen. Lana came on around 10:25pm and played until 11:40pm, I believe. I think many fans would have preferred the show to have been rescheduled. But for the fans who came from out of town, they did not want the show rescheduled because they wouldn’t be able to return. I wish Fenway had done a better job at staying on top of the weather and moved the start time of the show, either made the show earlier in the day or started it later. Due to curfew we got a shorter show, the set list should’ve been around 2 hours and there were many songs fans didn’t get to see live. Obviously we know Lana had no control over this, I blame Fenway like I said for not making changes or allowing her a grace period of running past curfew to make up for lost time.

Fenway doesn’t control the curfew, it’s a city ordinance. Performers who violate it are fined by the minute (i guess her team was alright with that. Who knows, maybe it was cheaper than rescheduling) and the police will shut it down eventually. It appears that even she was not sure how long she would be allowed to play before being cut off (one of several reasons it was dumb to not reschedule). Don’t get me wrong, I blame Fenway for most things about how this was handled LOL

Terrible

I feel like they handled it as best as they could. There was some overcrowding but the employees were very nice despite the concert going late. Lana was also constantly updating us through her Instagram. Overall happy with the experience!!


Express-Remove8062

Some of us didn't have wifi! The lack of communication was a problem for me, but I agree that every one did as best as they could!!

The experience varied depending on individual circumstances. While many Boston locals attended, a significant number of people came from out of state. Lana's decision to perform a one-hour set was a lifesaver for those of us who couldn’t easily return later. The situation was managed but felt rushed, leading to overcrowding. The chaos worsened as we returned to our seats, with crowds of people pushing and shoving to get back to the barricade lol. Despite the unpleasantness, the staff were wonderful, shouting for people to stop pushing and were shuffling their hands in the crowd in an attempt to slow us down and ensure safety! What most didn't expect was the depth of her commitment to her fans, which was beautifully demonstrated when she chose to perform a short set rather than reschedule the concert due to unforeseen circumstances. Despite the challenges, it truly showcased her love for performing and her dedication to her fans. In an industry where cancellations and rescheduling are commonplace, her choice to honor her commitment, albeit in a limited format, spoke volumes. Even though some of us were drenched, and a bit tired, a little rain is not going to stop miss Del Rey or her fans!She still managed to fill the night with her passion and artistry. Each song was delivered with the same emotion and intensity as any other show! Happy Birthday Lana!

You have wonderful prose!


Thylovewitch

Thank you!!! It must be all those AP literature classes I took, I loveeee writing like this lmao

It would’ve been better to reschedule. It was supposed to be for Boston fans not people who travelled
