GOT7 Eyes On You World Tour 2018 #EYESONYOUinLA
When my friend and I first found out about GOT7 having a world tour and having a concert in LA, we immediately said “let’s go” “bet” and we waited for the day of the ticket sale and that was already a struggle bc it was so hard to get tickets and my friend was in New York at the time. When we finally snagged tickets (we wanted P3, but got P4), we were so excited and started looking at flights. It was relatively average for HI✈️LA, but we had to wait for my friend’s mom to buy it. When we finally bought it, we were so excited. I can’t explain how happy I was, it was something that motivated me to keep going through the struggles I was facing and motivated me to get a better job and kept me going during school and a new job.
We flew to LA on the 5th 9PM HST and landed on the 6th 6AM PT and let me tell you, my sleeping schedule was really bad already, but the flight made it worse. That flight was one of the most uncomfortable flights I’ve ever had bc the limited space and I could not sleep at all. BUT ISSOK because I was BEYOND excited for the concert later in the day. I kept irritating my friend bc of how eager and excited I was 😂
When we got to the venue, The Forum was really quick and easy with security and tickets, so I was really grateful. The only thing that was difficult was the heat, but it was bearable. (I hope the people who fell ill is feeling bette now!!) The Forum provided games and places to take pictures for the fans, it was really nice and considerate of them! They had big versions of connect four, jenga, peer pong, etc. it was a really great atmosphere with lots of friendly and outgoing ahgases ~
The concert itself. Wow. It’s unbelievable and beautiful and amazing and indescribable. But I’ll try to describe it. While going to our seats, it was 7:56 and the concert starts at 8, so we’re rushing to get to our seats so we don’t miss anything and while going to our seat, we see Joey, Mark’s younger brother, and it was weird to see him so casually like that? I dunno it was a lil funny, but we didn’t bother him, he looked busy and we had to get to our seats. Once we sat down, we got our ahgabongs and phones ready and it STARTED. The opening VCR the Hard Carry Remix and then the rest of the Setlist. It was amazing to be in the same room as them, however big it may have been. They were performing so passionately and so talentfully and it was incredible watching them. The boys were doing what they love surrounded by unconditional love. It was a great feeling to have. It felt so unreal. When I was looking at the big screens, it was like looking through my computer/phone, but then looking at the stage where the boys are actually made me speechless. I couldn’t record the beginning songs like Hard Carry Remix, Skyway, OUT. But I recorded most of it which I was so grateful to. But I made sure I kept my eyes on the stage and the big screen so I wouldn’t miss out the experience and damn I DIDNT. Seeing them in real life and having them in front of us, performing for us, it was so special and so so memorable. We were singing along so much, screaming, loving them so much, talking, discussing, SCREAMING SOME MORE, SINGING MORE, it was amazing. My throat is so sore now. Honestly, I’ll never forget this moment. This concert was worth every penny. I wreally want to get P1 tickets next time and see them up close. I’m so willing and wanting to go to their next tour!!
All the boys are such blessings. Seeing them enjoying the company and performing with so much feeling, it was amazing to witness. They were all so sweet and dorky and just so GOT7, it was such special to see it in person. All the boys were enjoying their time in LA, being happy, they were teasing and playing around with each other, and I really felt like a family in there with strangers surrounding me. I was breathless again when i looked around and saw the green galaxy. It was so beautiful and breathtaking. I started tearing up when the boys started to perform Thank You. Their ending ments were so pure and soft and it was so nice hearing them. Hearing their voices, their singing, them speaking directly from them. Not through a screen or a recording, but really from them and wow their voices are really something. It’s so beautiful and soulful and something I wish I could hear forever. They look so beautiful. It’s like through a screen they look perfect bc it’s a screen, but seeing them in person like that, they are so beautiful. I am most definitely rambling, but I can’t help it. Those past 3.5 hours were the best 3.5 hours of my life. I kept smiling and laughing and screaming and singing. It felt so right being there and singing along with the boys and the other ahgases. Even tho I don’t know Korean, singing the songs was something that just came to me so quickly and naturally. This is the night I want to relive for the rest of my life.
Thank you, Mark, Jaebeom, Jackson, Jinyoung, Youngjae, BamBam, Yugyeom. For everything you’ve done. All the things you guys had to go through, sacrifice, endure, and struggle to get where you are now. To be the people you are today. I can’t imagine how being a kpop idol trainee is, the struggles you faced everyday; mentally, physically, financially, physiologically. I’m so grateful for all seven of you to be here. I know some people think we’re delusional and that we’re putting you on a pedestal, but we’re not and we don’t. We know who you are, or at least what you want to show us, and we try our best to be the most respectful and loving fans. We try to being understanding and supportive and do our very best to make you proud. We know that you’re not perfect and that there are screw ups and mistakes, and that’s okay. You guys are human beings who deal with human being problems and feelings and struggles. The fact that you seven are here, doing what you love, sharing it with us and being the most genuine you’re willing and able to do, means the world to us. We’re grateful for you and everything you do for ahgases. So much could have happened the past 10 years to each of you guys that could have led a different journey than the journey you’re in right now and I’m so eternally glad that you guys have stumbled upon each other’s lives and have become GOT7. I know GOT7 will end eventually bc not everything stays the same forever, but you guys are legends. You will stay in my heart, my mind, my brain forever. Your songs have been instilled in my heart and head and your kindness and love and talent has been ingrained in my brain. I can’t thank you guys enough. You guys have done so much for me and I’m pretty sure for a lot more people as well. This is just the beginning. We’re starting to pave the way and we’re going higher and higher and I’m so proud of you boys. Let’s be by each other’s sides and support each other through everything. I love you. Thank you.
