My show is tomorrow
I kinda want to make a sign but i dont know what I would want it to say.
Also Arlington is known for really bad traffic so that might be a issue tomorrow.

Leave early as hell. Even if you need to plan your earlier parts of the day at some places near the stadium.

Make a sign that says: WHERE'S THE SINGLE? or #PromotionHurts

I'm going to the show in Arlington tomorrow, but I'm not from the Dallas area. What time should I be starting to head towards the stadium to allow for traffic?

I'm not from there either but I do know the show starts anywhere between 8:45 PM - 9:00 PM so that may help you.

Traffic is really bad here in Baltimore the closer you get to the stadium so I left my house at 5:00 and was seated by 7.

I live 15 minutes away from Soldier Field but I have a feeling that 15 minutes could turn into an hour.

EARLY! There's a ton of construction on that area which is what causes the traffic. I wonder what time the doors open. 7 maybe? If so I would leave at like 4 to give time to sit in the traffic. Because it's inevitable unless we leave at like 2pm it also depends which way you're coming from. I'm coming from Denton.
So yeah. Early is the best bet & if you get there extremely early maybe grab a bit to eat at a restaurant near by. That's my plan.

JESUS! This is gonna be hell. I'm coming from Oklahoma City. I'm leaving here @ 10. I have to pick up my friend from her aunt's house in Dallas. I'm hoping to have her by 1 or 2 at the latest. Then we have to check into a hotel. Then we wanna go get food from somewhere around the stadium. I just wanna be at the stadium by like 630 or 7.

That's a good idea. Yeah traffic on I-30 is always hell on a regular day. Hopefully they have police out there directing traffic because if not

Yes I'm more of a casual Jay-Z fan so I didn't know every word to his songs but he is soooo good! And I was most surprised during Drunk In Love when the "surfboard" part came up I thought it would be the most iconic moment in concert history with how loud the crowd would get but literally it was like nobody cared...then when Jay-Z did the "eat the cake Annie Mae" part EVERYBODY turnt up for that and it was probably the loudest the crowd got the entire show. Jay is definitely underrated, he probably could do a solo stadium tour if he wanted.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Jay is a great performer and many Bey stans who went to the tour gave him credit but he most definitely can't sell out a solo stadium tour. His last arena tour wasn't even sold out. His box office score was about 22.7 million from 52 dates.

Yall... the show last night was so amazing. I can't say anything bad

[foxaylove]

Sis, was TURNT UP last night during ***FLAWLESS. I got my life. This was my first time seeing Jay-Z live. I was very impressed and would go back to see him again. He had the crowd hype. The first half of the setlist>>>>>>


And Jesus take the Wheel with some of these outfits I had seen last night. The waiting in line for merchandise was TERRIBLE. They had the slowest credit card verification machines known to man. Waited in a small line for an hour and 15 minutes to get my tank top, blinkers, and tour program. MESS!

[JustThatGreat]

I wonder if other artists' merchandise sells out the way Bey's does.

TELL ME ABOUT IT! This one girl's credit card was declined and they spent a damn near 30 minutes explaining to this poor girl that she's broke. It was T R A G I C! The line slimmed down after about 40 minutes for me though after people thought the concert was starting but it was just her Rise perfume commercial

Speaking of outfits though, my favorite was of this girl who I saw had on this immaculate looking mirrored/glittery dress like the one Bey wears in the tour book

[all eyes on me]

cant wait for the Dallas show tomorrow~ so excited!!
ALSO does anyone know how the show is selling? any guesses?

That's true. I noticed that at my show. All the Bey stans were singing and dancing to Jay Z while some Jay Z's fans sat back on their seats.
But us Bey stans made up for it by screaming even louder for Bey.

But I think this applies to a lot of Pop fans, we are not afraid to bop to other genres because Pop music is very diverse while genre stans tend to hate anything that is remotely Pop. They think they are cool but they are just missing out on good music. Good music is a good music regardless of the genre.

Yeah it's just a HipHop vs Pop fans. HipHop fans are cool and dont scream at the top of their lugs. They rap along and just two step, most Jay Z fans are just like him, laid back. However Beyonce's fans....well....i guess they get caught up in the moment when they see Jay Z there because they are used to seeing only Beyonce so with Jay there too, it gets exciting. What i find funny is when some Bey stans pretend they dont give a damn about Jay but when he comes on the stage with Bey, they lose their minds lol.

Well, given the large amount of tickets that was on stubhub (over 4k and now down to 1k – people wouldn't buy them if they could get the primary tickets they wanted) – also, both shows that were selling terribly (2nd NJ, NOLA) both picked up and basically sold out close to the show. I think it's going to be packed, annoying there's not an interactive map to double check though

So many people have said this, the Rise commercial trolling everyone

[Deemy]

I went to the NJ show last week Friday. Amazing. I had great seats but even better seats when I snuck up to the front. Luckily it wasnt sold out so I got a better view. First time seeing Bey and Jay so it was a great experience.

I don't know if every show is different, but last night I got in line at about 6:15 and it was already long as hell...then doors didn't open until sometime after 7:00...the Rise commercial came on exactly at 8:00 and that's when the house music turned up super loud and the show finally started around 9:15ish, but I have a feeling that was a late start for the show.

I received a email from the stadium saying the doors will open at 6:30 & the show will start "promptly" at 8pm
