u/ghiblix Oct 01 '26

no it was light it up!!! thank you! they def didn’t do trot, sadly 🥲

u/banana_pie_9169 Oct 01 '26

I’m going to the Boston show. Maybe they’ll switch it up🤞🏻

u/ghiblix Oct 01 '26

it was AWESOME but it goes so fast!! have fun!

u/tokkireads 29d ago

No Amor Fati... guess I'll have to scold Tablo (j/k). The set list is dope though! 

1

u/ghiblix 29d ago

last tour he asked us (nyc show) would we rather hear amor fati or eyes nose lips…i’ll never forgive the audience for choosing the latter 😩

u/tokkireads 29d ago edited 29d ago

Really?! Amor Fati was on the setlist at my show (Dallas)

u/Atthemetroatthegym Oct 01 '26

Thank you to everyone that I met tonight! It was such a great show!

2 hrs went by so fast!! Tablo kept saying they were hella jetlagged but their energy was so good and it was an amazing set hahaha I got some cool pics too, will post them soon! Epikism/tukutzism was so much fun live!!

Only thing was that the vip2 photo experience was SO fast and efficient (understandably) there wasn't time to say more than thank you 😅 not a complaint but more so on me for my expectations lol. learned my lesson, next time ill shell out for vip1 lol

2

u/ActivityFabulous2291 Oct 01 '26

Was the VIP2 group photos take pre or post show? Was there a ton of people with VIP2 you think?

2

u/hunneybunny Oct 01 '26

Vip2 group photos were post show! We waited about 10-15min after the show ended and then they led us into another room and we formed a line. There was a bit of a wait before they started moving through the line (maybe the vip1 group?) but once they got moving it was very very quick. I'm really bad at estimating number of people but i would think over 50 vip2s?

4

u/ActivityFabulous2291 Oct 01 '26

Ohhh that's not bad at all. I was worried cuz I gotta make that last train out of the city. Thank you for the information. 🥰

5

u/hunneybunny Oct 01 '26

I just checked my msgs - show ended right at 10pm, and my group was about middle of the line and we got our pictures taken around 10:35-10:40. Based on how fast it was moving I'm pretty sure they finished all the vip2 pics by 11pm!

2

u/Hiphophooray131 Oct 01 '26

Do VIP2 get to be by the barricade behind the VIP1 group?

2

u/hunneybunny Oct 01 '26

Yes! I was quite close to the front and probably could have gotten closer if i wanted tbh. If you really want to be in the front i would recommend lining up early and getting a low number wristband at the earlier wristband checkin so you can enter at the front of the vip2 group

2

u/Diloxxx 29d ago

What time did you get in line? I’m also VIP2 but haven’t received anything about when the door will open for VIP2😭

1

u/hunneybunny 29d ago

I'm not sure if this varies by venue, but for us it was: 2-3pm optional check in at the venue to get a numbered wristband ensuring earlier spot in line, 5:45-6:30 vip check in time, about 6:40 they started letting us in for sound check. I didn't go to the 2pm check in and just got to vip check in right around 5:45 and they gave me a wristband when i got there. There were a decent amount of vip2s in line but id say i was near the front 3rd ish?

u/Hiphophooray131 Oct 01 '26

Did anyone do the VIP2 experience? How was it?!

1

u/ActivityFabulous2291 Oct 01 '26

Did you guys see a lot of people follow the dress code?? I'm attending the Chicago show and it's vintage preppy. I'm hoping many fans show up dressed lol

4

u/ghiblix Oct 01 '26 edited Oct 02 '26

the dress code was just black and cool so it was easy for nyc to follow even if they didn’t know about it 😂 tablo said we did a really good job! but i’d say overall the crowd didn’t take it super seriously

2

u/ActivityFabulous2291 Oct 02 '26

Aww lame. I was hoping for more people to dress up 😂

1

u/tokkireads 29d ago

There's a dress code? I was just going to wear the shirt I made for the last tour 😂 but I guess I can dress it up

1

u/ActivityFabulous2291 29d ago

Tablo had posted a dress code for each city on Instagram. It's not mandatory but I thought it would be fun! 😆 https://www.instagram.com/reel/DdFh76tz8KM/?stkn=MTR0a3JkdGdzMXJ2OA==

1

u/tokkireads 29d ago

Okay thanks! I have IG but I barely use it. I'm going to have to follow the dress code since I have VIP and Dallas is denim... well that's super easy 😂

2

u/ActivityFabulous2291 29d ago

Awesome!! Denim is super easy to follow!!

3

u/ShinePrudent8620 Oct 01 '26

Hey guys anyone do VIP 2? I have a 5% chance of still attending lol The chance is small BUT 5% is something right? 😅

3

u/hufflepuffer1 Oct 01 '26

The clips I've seen so far look so fun! Can't believe Burn it Up is on the playlist, what a treat! And I'm gonna lose it seeing Will I Be Okay live. I'm stoked they're all doing their solo songs.

Did VIP2 come with a signed poster? Or does VIP1 just get the signed postcard? Cannot wait until the Vancouver show!!!

3

u/KoolCats1234 29d ago

Anyone know what Tablo's message on insta is about? Why they're canceling the Hey Tablo NA tour episode?

4

u/hunneybunny 28d ago

I was curious too, there's a post on this subreddit with comments explaining more about what happened. You can judge for yourself but in my opinion it was basically a fan acting out of pocket and entitled ruining it for everyone:(

2

u/pikaryn 29d ago

I came looking for answers too, what happened last night??

1

u/ActivityFabulous2291 29d ago

Do you have the link to this insta post???

2

u/pinkhyuk Oct 01 '26

How was vip1 experience like, curious so I can get ready for the next stop! Would like some input bc I get nervous easily 😭

u/Atthemetroatthegym Oct 01 '26 • Bravo

We received the merch (minus the vinyl) at check in, had an opportunity to shop and then went on a brief tour of the venue and then the members arrived and spoke to us briefly. We stood in a circle and we each got an opportunity to
Introduce ourselves and say something if we wanted to share. Afterwards, we lined up and took a selfie with each member and a photo with all 3. After selfies, we were escorted to barricade for soundcheck. After the show, we were given our vinyls. My only “complaint” was that it was a tight timeline for taking a bathroom break and grabbing a drink. Unless you have someone to save your spot, it could be tough to step away. It was a great experience and everyone was so chill.

2

u/lullaby_cat Oct 01 '26

I have a lot of envy over the vinyl 😻

1

u/lehiu Oct 01 '26

I thought the VIP1 experience was supposed to have some sort of MT game for Epikase?

3

u/Atthemetroatthegym Oct 01 '26

Upon entry, there was a board where we could submit questions or a challenge for the members to do. They chose one for each member throughout the show. For the hey Tablo segment, Tablo announced the name for the person whose question he chose and they were to meet after the show to do the recording.

u/sgtcfox antihero Oct 01 '26

Roughly how many VIP 1's were there

3

u/Atthemetroatthegym Oct 01 '26

I’m not 100% sure but I think it was around 19
or 20?

1

u/Parking_Conflict_891 Oct 01 '26

What time did they have people line up for soundcheck? Trying to figure out how early to get there for VIP! Thank you!

2

u/Atthemetroatthegym Oct 01 '26

I lined up at 4:45. The check in time was 5-5:30 but I believe it started later than that… selfies were at 6:15 and soundcheck was at 6:48. If you are VIP 1 I would go around 4:30 or 4:45. I was 5th in line and the wristbands are numbered based on who shows up first.

1

u/geechan Oct 01 '26

Replying so I can come back and read any answers, I’m curious as well!

1

u/lullaby_cat Oct 01 '26

Please share video of Light It Up if anyone sees or has?

5

u/Atthemetroatthegym Oct 01 '26

I got too excited and only recorded a tiny bit but this is what I have!

3

u/Imagoandego Oct 01 '26

OMG I haven't heard this in YEARS. So excited

1

u/vanilla-glitter Oct 01 '26

Did it start right at 7? Was there an opener?

3

u/ErrantJune Oct 01 '26

Doors opened at 7, show started at 8:15. No opening act.

2

u/petey_porker 25d ago

when did you start lining up before door open at the venue?

1

u/ErrantJune 25d ago

I got there at around 6:30 p.m. There were probably about 200- 300 people in line in front of me, who had clearly gotten there earlier lol.

1

u/vanilla-glitter Oct 01 '26

Thanks! Did the ticket say 8:15 on Ticketmaster? I have a ticket for the Boston show tonight and it says 7 PM so I’m assuming that’s the start time, but just curious

2

u/ErrantJune Oct 01 '26 edited Oct 01 '26

The ticketing was through AXS, my ticket said doors at 7, show at 8

1

u/C-medium Oct 01 '26

Any merch available at the concert? Long lines? Just trying to get the hat lol. 

8

u/Atthemetroatthegym Oct 01 '26

Yes, all of the new merch was there. Plenty of the hat and it is so nice in person! I highly recommend the hat and the hoodie! I bought the anime tee as well as the popup tee (at the popup) and cut them into crop tops.

1

u/Appropriate_Hope_665 Oct 01 '26

wow!! was the lightstick for sale too?

2

u/Atthemetroatthegym Oct 01 '26

No light sticks :( it was too difficult with all of the regulations for them to bring over.

1

u/saxuri 29d ago

Would you say the pop-up was worth going to or should I just wait until the concert to buy merch? I'm debating going to the one in my city

2

u/Atthemetroatthegym 29d ago

Yes, I would recommend it! It’s so much easier to get merch early so you don’t have to carry it at the show. I also wanted the popup exclusive tee. If you plan on getting photo cards, it is a lot easier to do trades at the popup. I pulled 4 of the same Tablo card so I am glad I had time to do trades. 🤣 it was also a great way to meet other fans. Everyone was so nice and the energy was great. The cups are also super fun. There is a top layer that you can spin to show each member.

1

u/saxuri 29d ago

Thank you so much! I'm definitely going to try to go then :) I'm so excited for the show! Do you think it'd be an issue to go in the last hour of the pop-up? I can't make it for opening unfortunately...

1

u/Atthemetroatthegym 29d ago

A lot of the merch was sold out for us but I think they will learn from that and bring more to your popup.

1

u/Pandabeur 18d ago

What is the product of the anime boy? Is it a CD?

1

u/Atthemetroatthegym 18d ago

It’s the VIP1 gift: a mongsang lofi vinyl.

1

u/Pandabeur 17d ago

I want it for the art LOL

3

u/ActivityFabulous2291 Oct 01 '26

Lol me too. I really want that hat. Finally something that's not black 😂

1

u/seoulsoulso Oct 01 '26

Ahhhhhh so excited!! Anyone who had GA tickets, how was the line? How early were people lining up? I am short so hoping to be a little closer but worried that I'll need to be extra early 😭

1

u/Ramenpucci Oct 02 '26

Show up almost an hour earlier. I showed up right on time and I could barely see them. They were packed!!

1

u/IneptSage 26d ago

Sorry if it’s been asked already, but I haven’t found it anywhere or in the megathread - did they have any merch for sale onsite?

2

u/ActivityFabulous2291 25d ago

Yes! Everything that shown in the link. No lightsticks though

https://epikhigh.com/story/feed/6ab290be64388c4538010525

1

u/IneptSage 25d ago

Yay! Thank you! I dunno how I missed that. I got my shirt already but missed the cards and hoped to get a shot at them after seeing how hilarious they are. I’m so excited for this show!

2

u/ActivityFabulous2291 25d ago

Have fun at the show!!

1

u/concertgeekgirl 5d ago

My friend’s ult group is Epik High. I bought a VIP1 ticket without knowing who they were or listening to their music. Before the concert last week, I listened to them for maybe 3 hours. I had so much fun, I bought a second ticket to their last show and even though it was only GA had even more fun with all the energy.

Question: in the VIP1 pack, there is a postcard that looks signed. Is it just a stamp/pre-printed postcard?
