I met and befriended the entire group of people on the front left side of the stage. We all sang together, cheered together and hyped each other up when we got tired. It was absolutely amazing. 

Shout out to Neil at the front row... as the encore started, he grabbed my shoulder and said: "Bro.. I've been to a lot of SCANDAL shows... and you earned this. Take my spot." He let me stand against the rail for the encore and I pretty much cried over his kindness. The same goes for his friend, sorry I don't know the name. 

I met a couple, Sunny and Joe, in the parking deck because I was lost and couldn't find the new venue for the masquerade. We ended up all three having VIP and we spent the entire night together partying with Scandal. 

When the guy Neil let me stand against the rail for the encore, he also let this girl Sunny stand front row with us. SCANDAL BABY was incredible!!! 

At the end of the show, Neil told me that he's been to every show on this tour in US and he said "Atlanta hands down blew every other city away... incredible". 

There were a few moments where I caught the bands attention from the crowd. If you heard a guy yell "TOMOMI-SENPAIIIII!!!!", then that was me!! Haha. The crowd laughed, then Tomomi giggled and bowed directly at me. She then made a heart gesture with her hands. 

I'm just.... blown away. Not only by the performance of SCANDAL, but the diversity and kindness of the crowd. I made at least 10 new friends tonight and we all saved each others info after the show. It was an absolutely beautiful experience. 

The entire purpose of music is to bring people together... and SCANDAL did that TENFOLD while in a foreign country to them. 

11/10

I'm glad you had a good time, i was the guy next to Neil and can confirm Neil is the GOAT

Atlanta showed up for sure!

Hmm, if she was asymptomatic or has mild symptoms, I'd advise that the show must go on!  Americans don't seem to be bothered by COVID.  By the number of unmasked at the Toronto show, I'd be surprised if they weren't all positive.

Remember that sneeze in Scandal in the House?

Toronto =/= Americans, though.. that's Canada.

Everyone followed the rules 100% and did everything the band requested, so I don't see the need to make the statement that you'd be surprised if everyone weren't positive.

There is nothing to suggest that she picked it up at the meet and greet. They have all been traveling so it could have been anywhere, hotel, plane, transportation, restaurant, or even the venue.

(It would have been relatively easy for us in Boston since we live only a couple of miles from their concert here.) Can't help wonder about what this does to the band's bottom line. After all, touring is a livelihood for them and their staffs. I worry if rent for cancelled dates was a sunk cost, if they have any kind of insurance against this, etc. Anyone can look around and see small businesses that went under because of the pandemic and now we have the new inflation as well, and so many people are suffering much worse... but, well, they never talk about this stuff, we'll never know, and there's nothing we can do about it anyway.
