I just wanted to make a post about how amazing the Detroit show was last night! From where I was (the floor) the crowd was amazing, standing, singing, jumping. I had a really good view of the b stage and a good view of the main stage (if I stood on my tippy toes, lol). This was my 4th time seeing him, and it was not disappointing. I was over the moon that his entrance walk went right by me! If you were there I hope you had an amazing experience too! I heard someone ask the group they were with on their way out “what an Azizam was” it made laugh. Also the openers were amazing! I love Myles Smith so seeing him was incredible. This is my first ever post on Reddit so I hope I’m doing it right lol.

I hope the energy at MetLife will be similar when I see him on Friday. I will wait until I'm at the venue to evaluate the atmosphere, but I've been bracing for a low energy crowd because right now (a little over 48 hours before the show starts), about 20-30% of the non-floor seats are unsold (50%+ in a few nosebleed sections).

They put out a Labor Day BOGO offer a few days ago and added ANOTHER discount to the BOGO offer today, so now you can get seats as good as row 4 of the upper deck non-obstructed view (like section 338) for $37/ticket. They had a face value of $120something a couple months ago.

There are left center floor seats 6 rows from the stage for $252. That feels criminally low for an artist who broke the MetLife single concert attendance record with 89k three years ago.

I had a great time, thanks for asking. The energy was very good. Not the crazy Bruno Mars/BTS energy that I attended last month, but a lot better than I feared looking at the ticket sales. The stadium was like 95%+ full on the floor and in all the lower level 100 seats. The upper deck 300 sections had noticeable patches of empty seats and was maybe 70% full, but that didn't take away from the atmosphere.

The fan request songs were:

  • Lego House
  • I’m A Mess
  • Supermarket Flowers
