[Fan Account] 20170401 - BTS WINGS Tour in Anaheim, CA
So you guys may or may not know but I was in Anaheim last night to see Bangtan. If you'd like to find out about my experience, just keep on reading!
So my day started very early on Saturday morning. I woke up around 7AM. Since this past week was my spring break, I was accustomed to waking up at 1PM and going to bed at 4AM, so needless to say, I had trouble both falling asleep and waking up in the morning. I caught a bus from outside my dorm around 9:30AM and rode it for about an hour and a half up to Oceanside. From there, I took the train around 12PM to Anaheim and I got there around 1:30PM. Fast forward past some details no one probably cares about, I came back to the Honda center (it's right across the street from Anaheim station) around 3:30PM. Since I had an assigned seat, I didn't have to worry about lining up or anything. By that time, most of the merch was gone though, so I didn't get anything ;A; I guess it's a good that 'cause that stuff is really expensive. Anyway, after hours of sitting on the curb and waiting in line, I got in around 7PM. I was in section 204 so once I was inside, I went straight through the doors into the actual stadium. Since I was in row P, my view was a little further away but I was not complaining one bit. When I sat down, a lady gave us an orange and green bag to cover lightsticks for specific songs but I didn't get to use them since I didn't buy a lightstick. For the next hour or so, they were playing Bangtan MVs on the monitors, and y'all. Why y'all got scream... at a MV? I was amused but I expected it since at SMTOWN way back in 2011, I was one of those people who screamed at the videos playing before the show (and was judged by my dad). Anyway I was sitting there amused at the audience but also watching the screen (and screaming at Jas AKA @jeons-jalebi via text and snap). As I was sitting there, watching, it hit me and I was trembling in both nervousness and excitement, which didn't subside until deep into the actual performance. I noticed the MVs were somewhat being played in chronological order but after Spring Day, I was ready for Not Today... the MV... that's not what I got. The lights cut and the intro VCR started playing. Everyone got to their feet, screaming and waving their lightsticks. I was no exception this time (minus the lightstick, obviously). Guess what they performed first. Yup, that's right, Not Today. The rose up from the back portion of the stage and it felt like my heart stopped for a moment. Yes, I video taped it but I did NOT for one moment actually look at what I was filming cuz I wanted to focus on it with my actual eyes. Even though I held my phone very close to my chest, the footage is very shaky. Yes, it's because my body was still trembling uncontrollably. I don't think I need to tell you guys how they perform because I'm sure most of you are under the impression that they're great performers, and you'd be absolutely correct. I think after was the first ment (I say I think because I don't remember how many there were or when they happened). Everyone screamed their asses off as expected and they all introduced themselves in English and all that jazz. I was expecting this but I was not prepared. Goddamn Min YOONGI (that autocorrected to all caps and obviously, I have made zero attempt to change it) did the thing where he takes his earpiece out, closes his eyes and cups his ear. Naturally, I screamed at the top of my lungs, as did others (except the girl next to me; she was texting during half the concert lol). After that they performed Am I Wrong, 뱁새, and (I think) BS&T. I'm not sure the order but I'm pretty sure BS&T was in that mix because I know they performed it around the beginning but I don't quite remember when (I jotted the setlist during the breaks, but I had forgotten by then... I guess I was just that stunned). Yo... those motherfucking hip thrusts in 뱁새... I couldn't breathe, holy shit. Honestly, no amount of preparation can prepare you to see them and I learned that many times in the course of two and a half hours. So far, the award of hype goes to Not Today and 뱁새, which is saying something because usually I'm very reserved in public and I was by myself too. After a break, Begin started and I knew there was going to be choreography for it since Jas told me . I thought I could prepare myself for it… but I was not prepared at all. Begin is one of my favorite tracks and pairing it with dancing ruined me. I was on the verge of tears. And then Lie is performed, and in that moment, it was all over. The choreography was absolutely amazing. It was sensual and well put together. Even though it was Jimin paired with sexy dancing, that style of dancing appeals to me anyway so I was just immersed. It felt a little bit theatrical too, and the red lighting was also appealing to my aesthetic. Anyone who knows me knows much I love the color red (just like Jungkook, heh). Right after, the universe decided it was going to seal the package of that round of performances with my bias. Yes, that’s right, the first round of solos was my bias list, ending off with my ultimate. Yoongi started by sitting in the middle in front of a piano and there were two strings players sitting at each side. I could hear the emotion in his voice, honestly. He kept walking closer, down the stage and delivered the verses with closed eyes. At this point, I was just watching and crying (literally). In that moment, I all of a sudden felt so thankful that I was standing there, able to see him (and them) perform in person. I’m from Florida, so needless to say, they’ve never come anywhere near my hometown. I don’t remember which ment this was in but since I mentioned that I don’t remember which ment went where and what happened in each specific one except the beginning and end one, I’ll insert this story here. So Hoseok was going to each side, getting them/us to scream. Of course the left side would still scream when he went to the right side and vice versa, but that’s beyond the point. Yoongi, after Hoseok finished both sides, growled, and I mean GROWLED like a tiger when he said, “LOUDER!” Usually the speakers in a large concert made the pitch higher, but when Yoongi growled, his voice was the deepest I had heard from him. It sent shivers down my spine (and still does at this very moment as I think back to it) and everyone went absolutely crazy. I am no exception. Every time Yoongi prompted us to be louder, lowkey highkey, I put more effort for obvious reasons. The next set of performances were in the front part of the stage, so I got a better view of it. The vocal line started with Lost. I was really impressed by how much they’ve improved their vocals. There a lot more stable now. Lost isn’t one of my favorites but I enjoyed it (as I enjoyed the performance for every song that isn’t that high up for me). Oh, I’d like to mention that by then, I’m pretty sure my body’s trembling had subsided. I think it stopped when there was a break. After Lost was Save Me, and I Need U. The choreography for Save Me was… I can’t even describe. Obviously I’m familiar with it, but seeing it in person was so good. I could definitely tell I Need U was a favorite for many because it got even louder somehow (if you didn’t know, I tend to vibe more with the tracks that are more hip-hop infused). The next set of performances were solos again and it started with Reflection. Namjoon is one of those people whom I’ve grown to admire a lot in the past four years and seeing him perform was a reiteration of that. There’s just something about the way his voice fills the stadium… that or I’m crazy. After that was Stigma, and guys, we need to talk about Taehyung’s voice. I was so accustomed to his deep singing voice. Yes, I was aware of the high notes in Stigma, but hearing it live? This probably doesn’t mean much since I was shook to the core the whole time, but I was S H O O K. Hoseok performed Mama after, and I must say, I have a newfound love for him. The choreography was very jazzy and lively, and his smile just gave me energy. That whole performance was like a vitamin. Also I had a hard time keeping my eyes on him ‘cause the main monitor behind him and a slideshow of his baby photos and babies are my weakness. After Hobi, Jin performed, and again, so impressed with those vocals. The next set of performances… this is when shit got very real for me, and this is why: the fucking CYPHER happened. Yo, I mentioned that it’s hard to hype me that much if I’m solo and in public, but you better believe I was vibing hardcore with that shit. My mannerisms were like Yoongi’s. I was too into it to notice but when I looked back at the little snapchat video I took of the beginning of his verse, I noticed we’re similar. I also do some of the dance moves Hoseok was doing (and I’m sure some of you know the origin those dances). I’m dancing while sitting at my desk typing this up, that’s how much that performance hyped me. Right after was Fire, and of course the hype did not subside (for most people, Fire is a hype song but not my favorite - dear Lord, how many times am I going to say a variation of “hype”). They had us cover our lightsticks with either a yellow bag or an orange one for it. Following was a medley of throwbacks starting from N.O. Then they did No More Dream (I was so hyped for the former two), Boy in Luv, Danger, and Run. They only did choreography for Boy in Luv out of the older songs. They did 21st Century Girl, and then it seemed like it’d be over but after lots of screaming, chanting BTS, and changing the bags on the lightsticks to create a rainbow, they came back on, starting with Hoseok dancing to Intro: Boy Meets Evil (no, he didn’t rap too). They did BS&T again and talked to us more after. Last, they performed Interlude: Wings, 2!3!, and ended with Spring Day. Most people including me didn’t leave until the VERY end, after the ending video played on the monitor and the boys bowed with everyone. As I walked out, I was a little dizzy, still dazed, but also my ears were so blocked and my throat was very hoarse. I didn’t buy merch earlier but I bought a WINGS shirt with the tour dates on the back (which I’m wearing now)... it was $10! People just went around selling them! Jas told me to look out for stuff like that. The concert was about two and a half hours but i didn’t leave until around 11:30PM because I needed an uber to go back to the Airbnb and when I first got out, they were $45, and I was like hell no because it was $14 to get to the Honda Center. I kept refreshing but the price went up to $75. Eventually I got it at $32 though. The amount of people I screamed to about it when I was lying in bed… yeah I still have post concert shock. I came back to the dorm this morning and since Anaheim Station is close to the Honda Center, I got to meet @perpetually-jungshook :’) We didn’t hang for long; I had a crowded as fuck train to catch… but yeah, that’s it. I wanna turn back time, but the moment has passed so I’ll just pray they’ll come back soon.

After Another Twitter Rant Targeting Her, Kim Kardashian Speaks Out About Kanye West Battling Bipolar Disorder Amid Reports That She’s Meeting With Divorce Lawyers
Kanye West went on another Twitter rant last night where he revealed he has been trying to divorce Kim Kardashian West after she met up with Meek Mill to talk “prison reform" almost two years ago. Now, Kim K is speaking out about Ye’s battle with bipolar disorder, all while reportedly meeting with divorce lawyers. Get it all inside…
Kanye West has a new album – DONDA – dropping Friday along with a new sneaker. So, he’s doing what he does best for promo.  At least that's what some people believe.
'Ye has been in the headlines since the fourth of July when he announced he was running for president. He made his first campaign appearance in South Carolina last weekend and stirred up a sh*tstorm of controversy when he revealed he and his wife, Kim Kardashian West, were contemplating abortion when they first found out they were pregnant. Then, he hopped on Twitter to fire shots at his wife and the Kardashian-Jenner family, along with discrediting famed abolitionist Harriet Tubman.
Now, he’s tweeting (and deleting) about DIVORCE.  And has accused his wife of attempting to or actually cheating with Meek Mill.
Last night, the Jesus Is King rapper hopped on Twitter with claims that he has been trying to divorce his reality star wife for years. The “Heartless” rapper said he has been trying to cut ties with Kim since November 2018 after she linked up with rapper Meek Mill at a hotel during a criminal justice reform summit. He also made a random reference to late pop icon Michael Jackson.
"I've been trying to get divorced since Kim met with Meek at the Waldorf for 'prison reform,'" he tweeted (and deleted).
"Meek is my man and was respectful That's my dog Kim was out of line I'm worth 5 billion dollars and more than that through Christ But ya'll ain't listen to MJ and now ya'll believe them???"
Meek seemingly responded saying it's cap.
  Shit is cappp cmon .....
— Meek Mill (@MeekMill) July 22, 2020
The “Ultralight Beam” rapper also fired shots at his mother-in-law Kris Jenner (again), dubbing her Kris Jong-Un.
"Kriss and Kim put out a statement without my approval ... that's not what a wife should do."
It’s unclear what statement he was referencing as Kim didn't issue a statement on her Instagram until a couple of hours ago.
Ye’s latest Twitter rant comes a day after he ranted on the app about Kim supposedly trying to have him hospitalized involuntarily.
"Kim was trying to fly to Wyoming with a doctor to lock me up like on the movie Get Out because I cried about saving my daughters life yesterday," Ye tweeted and deleted.
”Sources” hit up media outlets to let them know Kim is “completely devastated” by Ye’s tweets.
Now, Kim’s speaking out herself. The “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” star hopped on IG Stories to address Kanye’s latest antics. She talked about his mental health battle and asked fans for “compassion and empathy.”
"As many of you know, Kanye has bipolar disorder. Anyone who has this or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand," Kim wrote. "I've never spoken publicly about how this has affected us at home because I am very protective of our children and Kanye's right to privacy when it comes to his health. But today, I feel like I should comment on it because of the stigma and misconceptions about mental health."
"Those that understand mental illness or even compulsive behavior know that the family is powerless unless the member is a minor. People who are unaware or far removed from this experience can be judgmental and not understand that the individual themselves have to engage in the process of getting help no matter how hard family and friends try."
"He is a brilliant but complicated person who on top of the pressures of being an artist and a black man, who experienced the painful loss of his mother, has to deal with the pressure and isolation that is heightened by his bi-polar disorder,” the mom-of-four continued. Those who are close with Kanye know his heart and understand his words some times do not align with his intentions."
"We as a society talk about giving grace to the issue of mental health as a whole, however we should also give it to the individuals who are living with it in times when they need it the most," Kim continued "I kindly ask that the media and public give us the compassion and empathy that is needed so that we can get through this. Thank you for those who have expressed concern for Kanye's well being and for your understanding."
Check it:
  It's important to note, Kim previously Tweeted her support of her husband for President not even 3 weeks ago, and the family sources have stated that he has been in the midst of an episode for a pretty long while now.  So it can be confusing to fans and people everywhere what exactly are legit statements and beliefs of his - esp. when she co-signs certain ones - and what is the product of a bipolar episode.
People would be more apt to take her statement at face value if she wasn’t simultaneously profiting off the fallout from his episode - seeing the incessant buzz around him but only promoting her products and moving up the filming of the new season of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" which is happening as we type.  But there was not one word about his state of mind uttered from her own mouth until he began attacking her and her mother directly.  He has been attacking many people and groups, especially black women, for months if not years.  And people don't often discuss that.
Here’s some context for that video and enjoy this thread of ignorant comments Kanye said today at the rally in North Charleston: https://t.co/J78mu0qH9C pic.twitter.com/Z6aW9cLCUZ

- He yelled at me as if i was a toddler for interrupting him with CORRECT FACTS. A white girl did the SAME THING literally 10 mins earlier, and he hugged her and called her brave for “speaking out” and “speaking the truth” pic.twitter.com/vGJhafvuQb
— iesha (@iesha_mars) July 20, 2020
At what point can others who don't share blood or a bed with him speak up for themselves too without being labeled as just purely insensitive? He has a huge platform and endless resources, so his words carry weight - whether he is having an episode or not.
  She and her family want it both ways. And you can’t have it both ways. Attempting to run an entire country - and she reposted and co-signed his campaign - while admittedly and proudly not taking meds or managing your disorder, can be problematic. And it would be for anyone attempting to have any position that has a direct effect on people's everyday lives. No one said people with mental or emotional disorders can't live full lives.  There are people in top positions everywhere who do just that.  But proudly not doing anything to manage said disorder while trying to take on an influential an position is what people have an issue with.
  While her social media posts seem supportive, US Weekly says Kim is meeting with divorce lawyers following her husband's latest rant. The site reports: 
“Kim has been meeting with lawyers to explore and talk about divorce,” a source exclusively tells Us Weekly. While the couple has had their ups and downs in the past, another source says she has 'wanted to make it work.' The insider adds that Kardashian, 39, hasn’t gone forward with divorce in the past 'because of their children.'”
Ye & Kim tied the knot in May 2014 and have four children together, North, 7, Saint, 4½, Chicago, 2½, and Psalm, 14 months.
Can't lie, their marriage lasted longer than we expected. However, we knew when ish hit the fan, regardless of why, it was going to be a nightmare. And here we are.
Also....
  All I did was ask what about the Gullah Geechee pic.twitter.com/17XM3SMUkC
— ment nelson (@mentnelson) July 20, 2020
  Marquetta L. Goodwine, who was elected Queen Quet, Chieftess of the Gullah/Geechee Nation, issued an open letter to Kanye West after he kicked out a South Carolina artist for asking him about the Gullah-Geechee culture during his campaign appearance over the weekend.
“What about the Gullah-Geechee?” artist Ment Nelson asked.
“You probably one of them,” Ye responded. Then, he instructed to have him escorted out of the event.
“Hey, somebody go grab him and take him out,” Ye commanded.
Peep the clip above.
Here's Queen Quet's personal message to the Chi-town rapper in response to Ye removing the artist:
Peace Kanye!
I must begin by letting you know that I am going to go back and play “Jesus Walks” and pray for you when I finish writing you this letter. I have been praying for you for years given the few things that I am aware of that you have gone through in your life. In spite of those things, it appears that you have not learned PROVERBS 4:7 KJV “Wisdom [is] the principal thing; [therefore] get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.”
You came to the Gullah/Geechee Nation to the Holy City i.e. Charleston, SC on a holy day to act unholy during the 20th Anniversary celebration of our nation and the continuation of our cultural heritage. Instead of being well aware of that, your campaign team allowed you to disrespect one of our citizens who is also a celebrated artist that has painted you and the person in Washington DC that you seem to want to emulate. Mr. Ment Nelson asked you a clear question, “What about the Gullah/Geechee?” He spoke in English and not in Gullah to insure that you would be able to respond and provide your platform for our cultural community. If you were not aware of who we are, someone on your team should have been educated enough to IMMEDIATELY whisper information in your ear. Obviously, Jesus wasn’t walking with nor talking to you based on your outrageous reaction to something that you didn’t know about! How dare you have people remove this brother from the space? You were in our house!
  He knows https://t.co/ataYotpCyr
— ment nelson (@mentnelson) July 20, 2020
  I met with numerous US presidential candidates that were running because they chose to educate themselves about our unique culture community and to respect the protocols for our community. Your ignorance about us we could have excused if you were not attempting to obtain a space on a ballot. Many tourists arrive in the cities of the Gullah/Geechee Nation and are unaware of who we are, but they are usually wise enough to have someone educate them before they leave. Mr. Ment Nelson could have done this if you had done what you had the audacity to tell your audience to do at the beginning of this gathering which you held for media attention. It is obvious that you didn’t actually want anyone in what is called the South Carolina Lowcountry to take you seriously (if they were considering that in the first place) based on you throwing Brother Ment out of the building because he stood up like a proud Gullah/Geechee man should do and asked you a direct question. Your reaction was egregious and showed no respect for another Black man nor any manners at all. You have shown that you are out of touch with the calls for unity being fought for within the global Black community. This proves that you have no business attempting to enter an arena with world leaders.
Your behavior is completely unacceptable! As the elected leader of the Gullah/Geechee Nation, I hold you and your team accountable for this and expect you to show that you actually have Jesus walking with you by issuing a public apology to not only to Mr. Ment Nelson, but to the entire Gullah/Geechee family! Hunnuh ain kno who webe den hunnuh shoulda yeddi frum we! Disya ain gwine down drylongso juss likka dah!
  Peace,
