discussion Do you sometimes buy tickets to concerts and then decide not to go day of?

[BraveNewSeth]

Yes omg, I'm really bad with this. I've also done this with vacations I was supposed to go on as well

[lillavend3r]

My friend gifted me a Dua Lipa ticket two years ago and I didn't go 

[sweetblindness]

No. I only buy advance concert tickets for bands/musicians I REALLY love so I'm always counting down the days to the show. For musicians/artists I would maaaaybe like to see but I'm not overly excited about, I usually just hold off on buying tickets to see how I'm feeling the week/day of the concert and then buy them on StubHub if I want to go.

[jrd30121994]

Literally all the time 

[discosean]

No. If I really want to go to a show and spend the money on the tickets, I will do everything I can to go.

a friend did that to me three times

we're not friends anymore

Last year was really not my year, I mean no year is but that's a different topic.

So basically I had a ticket to Tove Lo last year but I was so depressed I decided not to go last minute.

I was also scared of not fitting in with the flamboyant gay audience. I mean I don't even know if that's the case at her shows but it's just something I thought would happen.

And combined with just feeling really sad and lovesick, I just said **** it. Which is very stupid, considering I'm not financially well off. 
But well I also went to vacation last year and just stayed in bed the entire time except when getting food, while I waited years to be able to go to the beach again. But I was just so sad, yeah. Very dumb.

it's not something i would do

 

if i was really sick then sure, but generally no. if i have the ticket, then i am going!

[Mochilover]

Yes I've done that. Usually it's because I've bought the tickets months in advance and don't feel the excitement that I initially did when purchasing. Now I buy them closer to the date.

Awe I wanna hug you but I feel you...mood slumps can be a mess. 

 

In November I traveled to a city like 4 hours away to see Charlotte Cardin but day of I decided I felt gross and spent the whole night in my hotel room's hot tub sulking 

 

[JennyWayne]

I usually have this whenever I planned to go out with friends

[Vignesh]

This has happened to me a couple of times, especially if it's been a long week and I just know I'm going to be tired af going to a concert after work. 

 

But despite that, I still drag myself to it, get together with friends either at the venue itself or some other predetermined location and always end up having a good time.
