120. FANACCOUNT: 121109 Big Bang Alive Tour in Newark, NJ
As I’m typing this, it’s noon the day after the concert and I’m sitting in bed in my Alive Tour t-shirt, foregoing sleep after 24 hours of being out and about, because I don’t want to forget any detail about the whole experience of going to the Big Bang concert. Yesterday was a day that I definitely do not want to forget, because it is one of the ( Read more... )

I was really freaked out by the fact that you went that early and still only got 574... like did these people camp out and start lining up from like 2 am in the morning? -___- lol but that means the two girls who sit on my table at lunch were screwed because I think they got VIP tickets too but they only left for Newark after school ended... 2:30 pm, so they essentially wasted some of their money because I doubt they could've got there in time for the sound check. Sucks to be them... they should've skipped school lol I would've probably XD ( ... )

Remember that k-pop has not yet gone (but at some point definately will) mainstream here in America. Gangnam style proved a good first step. Once kpop gains traction among Americans, the big companies, ex. JYP, SM, and yes, YG with big bang, will have more of a reason to start promoting here in the USA. Look at how much time kpop groups (kara especially) spend in Japan now. That could be America in a few years. After all, america's music industry is almost three times as big as Japan's.
As of now, I agree. Whenever kpop concerts are held in America, they are held almost exclusively in California. But korea's pop industry is young and has something american pop doesn't have to offer. I mean, who, here in the US, could hold a concert as good as Big Bang's? nobody. but its a matter of time before americans start to recognize that.
Anyways, I don't want to write a whole essay, 😉 but I just wanted to share my take on that. And I can't wait to see Big Bang again!

But, idk, I feel like Gangnam Style is treated as sort of a joke in America? Like it's a novelty. Once Americans bore of it, I don't think that'll necessarily translate to more Americans being more open to k-pop. I have a hard time imagining k-pop getting as big in America as it has been getting in Japan and other parts of Asia. I just don't think Americans as a whole are ready to overcome/look past Asian stereotypes any time soon.
Ah you went to the NJ concert too?? How was your Big Bang concert experience?

1. The official Big Bang crown lightstick (it even comes in a special box to store it)
2. Special commemorative V.I.P pass (it's like a card) that you can wear around your neck on a lanyard
3. The official Big Bang Alive Tour t-shirt (one size fits all)
4. A drawstring bag with the Alive Tour logo on it
I might be forgetting a couple of things, but that's basically it. So to answer your question, yes, it does come with the crown lightstick. (NOT the Alive Tour one, but the official V.I.P one). Hope that helps! And you're going to have a blast at the concert, trust me!!
