I am having mood swings about concert attendance of my own. I have a ticket to one of the Tampa nights of their concert tour, near the end of April. When the pre-sale for tickets started in January, I waited online with lots of other people and obtained that one. Same procedure for Foxborough MA, but I didn't get a ticket for that. The Foxborough show is in August. For Tamps, I have plane tickets and a rental car and offer of a bed at Arthur's sister's house, which is about 20 miles from the stadium. But I'll be back in the Tampa area a little over a week later, for their aunt's 100th birthday party. I'm not going to try to kill time in Florida in between when I have things I want/need to do here, so that would mean two sets of flights (or multiple whole days on trains).
In the meantime, I got an ad from Stubhub for a ticket in Foxborough, for less money. It was $80, less than all the surrounding seats, so I presume it's one empty seat between groups of folks or something. I got a front row seat at a theatre in London decades ago for cheap because an office outing had bought all but one of the seats in the row. I have arranged with friends in Foxborough to stay at their house overnight instead of trying to get home after midnight. So the obvious thing would be to cancel the Tampa trip and try to get some money from reselling the ticket (the flights are refundable, and I can cancel the car). But the Tampa concert is only a month away, and who the heck knows if we'll be in bomb shelters by August. Or if someone will tell Trump that BTS was invited to the White House by Biden and Harris, and met with them both, during the "Stop Asian Hate" movement, and he'll cancel their work visas out of spite. I am not joking. He's a very spiteful guy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_Asian_Hate

That was the first of (including this one) 63 posts in which I have mentioned BTS over the course of four years. Huh.
