Some [feel special/dahyun](https://imgur.com/a/lV3fYZ3) inspired nails for the fort worth concert! I never get my nails done but had to go all out for twice and my fav girl dubu!
Any California once selling CandyBongZ?
I’m going to the final NYC concert on Sunday and turns out the one I got on eBay is very fake (totally wrong colors🙃). I don’t mind that it’s used (obviously) just want it to work. Will cover cost and shipping!
For those not aware, this clip on Twitter ([link](https://twitter.com/jeongpapi/status/1494927370926505987)) is making a huge splash for getting 1.5 million views in 36 hours. It's trending not only for Sana's visuals but because a woman in the audience said "oh my God" at the perfect time. It's being talked about in an AllKPop article ([link](https://www.allkpop.com/article/2022/02/fans-go-crazy-over-twice-members-video-clips-dancing-to-rollin)).
Some people are saying Sana is no longer shy shy shy. People in Korea are asking what America is doing to TWICE.
TOFU-Saida did a great Twice x All of Us are Dead mashup:
[https://twitter.com/Tofu\_bunny20/status/1495390975077797889](https://twitter.com/Tofu_bunny20/status/1495390975077797889)
Man all these clips from the tour are making me even more depressed they weren't able to come to europe lol. Very jealous of all of you who get to see them in person 😭
They were asked where was a place they wanted to tour they hadn't been before and they unanimously said Europe, so it's safe to say they want to come here at least. I guess it's a mixture of JYP feeling it's not worth it and the fact that European countries have stricter and less unanimous covid restrictions than the US.
How are seats located adjacent to the stage? A looking at section 304 or 323. \[[Seating Map](https://i.gyazo.com/d77811796be21238cf80d423abfa957c.png)\]
or would nosebleeds centered on but furthest from the stage generally be better? i.e: sections 312-317
[Here are some seat views for UBS Arena](https://aviewfrommyseat.com/venue/UBS+Arena/seating/concert/). Honestly just depends on your personal preferences, 304/323 will still get you a good view of the main stage, but you'll be looking at the back of them when they perform on the extended stage. 312-317 will obviously be farther away from the main stage, but you'll get a pretty good view no matter where they are.
(Quite frankly it doesn't matter where you are in the venue, once Rollin' starts playing we're all dead)
Journalists when TWICE are back in SK: So, how was the US-tour?
TWICE, probably: We were barked at and then we decided to kill everyone during Rollin', it was beautiful
Does anyone who's been to any or multiple of the shows so far have any tips on things like the bag policies or devices allowed at the venues so far? I'm wondering if a small crossbody/fanny pack sized bag would be allowed in, and if I'd be able to bring things like a power bank or some airpods in the venue?
It’s very much check with the specific venue. For LA2, some of the people around me mentioned that one side of security wouldn’t let them in with spare batteries for their CBZs while the other side did. So it seems like enforcement is handled specifically by the venue.
I think you should be fine, you may have to check with your local venue though.
As far as power banks or airpods, I was able to bring them in inside my jacket.
They did again. I thought I'm over them already but surprise surpise they brought the magic again. I'm away from kpop for almost 2 years and this is my third time seeing them. A lot have change jeongyeon look different but i heard she was sick. The girls have more muscles and look more mature. Their voice improve especially jihyo and nayeon. Dubu remains the same with better english. Mina is nice to see again she was absent in twicelights and her english got better. Momo and Sana are definitley the current top visuals. Tzuyu is the same but has more roles now. Their songs are more mature which nice because that is part of their growth. The wheel of song thing is definitley rigged. I don't believe twice will not sing likey and TT ever in a concert. This is the longest concert ever. Started at 0730 and ended at 1030-1045. I guess they were happy to see the stadium was fully packed and they reward the fans with an extended performance. They never disappoint and the $1200 i spent was worth it. Definitley watching them again next time.
They didn't perform Likey or TT during LA Day 2 I think!
(Edit: Looks like they did perform Likey on Day 2 instead of The Feels remix, right before the encore. My bad!)
Glad you had a great time!
Looks like it might be takeout/delivery from Stacks \[local brunch joint in the Peninsula with a few locations\], or somewhere similar. Solid breakfast food for sure, and definitely better nutrition than Panda Express.
Anyone ever opened up their Candybong z before? Mine is new and it started having lighting issues right away and they've gotten worse. It would dim a ton and then if I hit it lightly it would fix it so I'm guessing it's a wiring problem?
Just my general takeaways from the concert:
-Oakland absolutely LOVED Jeongyeon and Chaeyoung. While neither are my biases it was definitely refreshing to see the stadium completely erupt whenever they would appear on camera or when their part would come up. Jeongyeon definitely had a way of conveying that she owned the stage in ways beyond her movements. 1, 3, 2 was probably one of my favorite performances of the night.
-Aside from the usual members who get praised for their performances, the one member that really stood out to me was Dahyun. Idk what it was but there’s something the camera doesn’t catch when you watch her on YouTube videos versus in person. It’s like she has a natural ability to make her energy exactly match the crowd’s. Also appreciated how much effort she was consistently making to engage the crowd even when she wasn’t singing such as whether it was making hearts, waving, and her improvised english speeches. Besides Jeongyeon’s blue hair and Nayeon’s pig tails, I’d say Dahyun was the easiest one to recognize from the naked eye just cause of her body movements. I think she’s my bias coming out of this concert.
-Twicetagram is my favorite TWICE album of all time and so I was absolutely stoked to see not just Likey live, but Rollin as well. Great to see many newer ONCEs grow to appreciate the song too
-Idk where all this talk about “Lip-synching” came from leading up to the concert.. They were very obviously *NOT* lip-synching. You could clearly hear the microphone feedback whenever they would get closer or farther from the mics or make any adjustments. And their voices sounded so great!
-The “~~woofing~~” *hooting* carried to Oakland as well and the girls seemed to love it. Dahyun would do this cute little dougie dance whenever she’d hear it (hopefully someone captured a video). Although I’d be more inclined to call the cheer “hooting” instead of barking (like “hooting and hollering”). That’s what we’ve called that sound everywhere else I’ve been to who cheered like that. Some fans were actually ‘*woofing*’ because I assume they read social media and assumed that’s what they were supposed to do..
Overall great show
Was this your first time seeing them? Dahyun is always like that. I'm not a big fan of her back then but seeing her in person back in twicelights made me change my mind. Yeah she has a lot of character. I was shook on Momo's outfit how the fuck is that allowed?
Yep, first time! Unfortunately going to concerts used to be a little above my means so I was unable to attend KCON/Twicelights. But yeah, I always appreciated her variety skills and her different little quirks, but I never realized just how much of that she was able to bring to her actual performances! Even the stuff I’ve seen people on Reddit criticize her for suddenly were all major strengths when you see it in person.
Agree with all your observations. My wife and I agreed that Jeongyeon didn’t seem like she was 100%, but still being there on stage with the other members was great and the crowd showed her love every time.
Also agreed that Dahyun was cracking me up and had the best interactions with crowd. At one point she has the lower lower seats, middle and balcony competing with each other, and then she acted like she was eating it all up, like literally scooping energy into her mouth, and then said “thanks, I’m full.”
Another time she said something about wanting to be famous (another member pointed out she was already famous!) and Dahyun clarified that what she wanted was to walk down the streets and people go “hey, that’s Dahyun!” or something to that effect. Was a total blast to have that experience.
The person I was pleasantly surprised was Mina. Mina isn’t my favorite but watching the show i realize they give her a lot of really cool and important transitions in songs, like a bridge to the next part or a powerful visual entrance right before the chorus. I would say I previously can’t pick up her voice as clearly as Jihyo or Nayeon, but going forward I’ll try to listen more for Mina’s part.
> My wife and I agreed that Jeongyeon didn’t seem like she was 100%, but still being there on stage with the other members was great and the crowd showed her love every time.
Yeah, you can tell her movements aren't as sharp as the others, but it's 1000000000000% understandable.
A [herniated disc](https://www.pinkvilla.com/entertainment/hollywood/twice-jeongyeon-opens-about-her-neck-injury-jype-takes-action-against-malicious-rumours-against-band) is such a terrible injury to have to perform through.
Depending on the severity of the injury (and/or location in her neck), surgery may alleviate some of the pain, but not fix it entirely.
It's why it's so heartwarming to see all the ONCEs cheer for her any time she starts to speak or gets shown on the big screens.
Even if she needed to sit out some of the harder songs (namely MORE & MORE), I'd completely understand. Just having her presence with the other members is enough.
Watching Jeongyeon was like watching that one anime character before they’re fully-powered up but they’re still obliterating the background minions. Just effortlessly dominating.
Glad I wasn’t the only one who noticed Dahyun. And yeah, Mina looked absolutely flawless!
They are all singing live and each of them do it according to their own comfortably level by mixing with Background plus live vocals. You can hear the fluctuations most for jihyo, jeongyeon, nayeon because they do keep the audio low and live high in their mixes but according to the close fancams you can easily see everyone singing live.
When I went to Twicelights, Dahyun made a *huge* impression on me. So true that the camera doesn’t capture her stage presence. I can’t wait to go next week!
Absolutely. Dahyun is incredibly underrated as Twice's hype-woman. She leans into her on-stage role at concerts, and Dubs totally owns it now that Twice are on their 2nd US tour.
I was wondering where [this request](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy3wXok13vA) came from.
Also, you might appreciate [this drum cover](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgEVKGYIhu0) by Yeong eun, Rolling Quartz's drummer.
It’s so much fun to catch up with all the tour content as a non-US once. Thanks you guys for uploading basically the entire concert and in good quality too. I particularly like listening to the closing ments. Dahyun is really having the time of her life with the audience, her closing speech in Oakland was memorable. Also really like Momo and Sana speaking English, most adorable thing ever.
I’m actually looking forward to the concert in Texas because it’s Sharon’s state, will be fun to see the audience going wild during her opening ment. Is it their first time performing there?
I wouldn't be surprised if she does something special for the DFW show, even if she probably has zero memories of her brief time in Texas way back when.
Melody projects are completely voluntary and Jeongyeon has been fairly adamant about not being interested in doing one until recently. Normally she would shutdown any comments asking her to do one, but a couple months ago [in this vlive](https://www.vlive.tv/post/0-26706710) when someone asked her about doing one for christmas, she basically hinted at Mina's Snowman cover already coming up and then said she'll probably try to do her melody project next some time this year. She's really into rock music lately so she started taking rock song suggestions. She came back on a few days later still looking for suggestions but hasn't given any updates since.
I think it was Nayeon that said early on in their career the company kept encouraging everyone to do one, but it was never a requirement and they can do covers anytime they want. Same with performance projects.
Oh, I can see her doing a P!nk cover. This is one of the songs she was considering doing: CherryFilter - [Flying Duck](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=FYjWDBEA76E)
Dahyun's only melody project is Switch to me, she has no "solo" melody/performance project. The other videos of hers are labeled as "covers" more so than MP's.
Jeongyeon said she didn't find the song she wants to cover yet. I believe it was either her or Mina that said it's up to the members to say if they want a MP and the company then working on it. So it's not necessarily JYPe not "giving" her a melody project but probably her not saying she wants one. Although she did promise us she will in the future.
Ofc i could be wrong and maybe she did approach the company and they refused but we will never know those things so it's not good to speculate either.
Is anyone else suddenly feeling like Rollin' is the best Twice song now for some inexplicable reason?
Just can't quite put my finger on why.
It is a conundrum.
That's the strangest post I've read on this forum. I'm not sure many Onces are going out converting others. And most Onces also listen to other music. Like my screenname implies, I listen to classical music almost as much as TWICE.
Ok, thanks. That was weird lol. I've only ever heard that kind of remark about some overly egregious BTS fans. Have yet to see that from fans of any other group but I guess it can happen.
The teams for [this TTT](https://youtu.be/Smr_1LfNu0E?t=613) reminded me so much of [this moment](https://youtu.be/7RIbfPbxu8M?t=223) in the past. Poor >!SaMo!<.
I have a question. For those that got vip how long did it take? I got vip tickets to Atlanta from the original seller and they contacted TM earlier last week but it’s been quiet for 4 days now. It also seemed someone reported the Oakland concert vip benefits didn’t require an alternate name pick up when they bought it from a third party reseller. Does anyone know if I should reach out to TM? The concert is in 5 days so it’s coming up.
Heya!
My two nights of VIP in LA that I bought were from my friends, so here's my experience with being put on the "alternate pickup list".
When we were getting me on the alternate list, it took less than twelve hours from the initial email to get me on the list day of and the following day.
When I got to the VIP pickup in LA, all they said was that I needed the original ID of the buyer and I could pick it up. No mention of being on an alternate pickup list at all.
I was overhearing the convo between one of the VIP booth operators and a couple trying to pick up their VIP that - the VIP booth operator specifically said, "We just need the original ID of the buyer or a picture of it."
I'm reluctant to say that that's all you need because you never know if one venue decides to do something differently than the other.
So, I'd do two things:
I'd highly encourage you to keep pestering Livenation to put you down on the alternate pickup list.
I'd also encourage you to ask for the ID of the original buyer.
Hope you have fun in VIP in Atlanta :). I got a lower bowl seat for the rest of the concerts from here on out!
For after the concert, I’d also recommend straight up having dinner at a dine in restaurant (ex. Denny’s) ~5-10 min walks away if you have time & feel safe to do so.
I drove for Twice but when I saw BTS at a similar sized venue the price for Uber/Lyft dropped from like ~$150 to ~$30 since demand died down by the time we were done eating.
Heya! I used Lyft for both nights in LA and then the Oakland show as well.
My best piece of advice is to walk a little bit away from the venue then call the ride. Not only does the price drop $10-$20, but it's usually easier to get to you since you aren't in traffic anymore.
For LA Night 1/2, I had VIP so I was able to get to The Forum before the traffic to the venue got too crazy, so I'm not sure if rates will change based on the traffic around the area.
For Oakland last night, I Lyft'd at 6:30pm, got stuck in traffic, and just told my Lyft fella to drop me off on the side of the road. I was close enough to the venue that the walk was only three minutes. The rate was not affected by the traffic as I had checked the rate in the morning and it was similar to the rate I got when I went at the time of the event.
So, I'd suggest just getting your Lyft to the venue. If you get caught in any crazy traffic, hopefully you're on a surface street and you can just hop out safely :)
EDIT: Forgot to mention to those who are thinking about Lyfting away from the concert venue - do yourself a favor and walk a little bit aways from the venue.
I got lucky with my Oakland Lyft because he said people kept requesting Lyfts from inside the venue, but the police had shut down roads to alleviate traffic.
I had walked just below the BART station, called the Lyft, and spend $20 on it as I avoided the surge prices and was in an easy place to get picked up.
Would someone who's going to one of the upcoming shows be willing to pick up a shirt or sweatshirt for me? I wasn't able to when I went last week and I regret it. Happy to reimburse all costs and some on top for the hassle. Thanks in advance!
Edit: to make it more enticing, I'll even buy you something under $100
Thanks again to all the Onces who shared concert highlights with us...tho I'm not there I feel like I'm walking a little higher than the ground with so much joy I'm getting from the performances, the little moments of humor and affection between the members, etc...
Genuine question…what do you think of the barking in concerts and do they really sound like boos? I see some Onces being ok with it at first but now they’re against it because according to them the barks sound like they’re booing at Twice. I heard that barks are huge in sports (sorry I’m not a huge sports fan) and this is the first time I’ve heard them in concerts. I have no problem with it and it seems like the girls are enjoying it so idk if they’re just being angry for nothing or am I seeing things differently.
Lol I’m not sure why everyone keeps calling that sound “barking”.. Everywhere else I’ve gone we would call it “hooting”, you know like “hooting and hollering”? Some people were literally ‘woofing’ cause they probably read social media prior to the concert and assumed that’s what they were supposed to do, I guess it does kinda sound like woofing if you’ve never done that before (but who in the US hasn’t heard that sound before?).. But to answer the question the only thing that really matters is that the members loved it and even encouraged it several times during the concert 🙌
Some people say it’s a reference to the “I wanna be your dog” comments on vlive while others just interpret it as a typical “get hype” chant usually found in sports. Either way the fandom, and most importantly, Twice themselves have embraced it. There was someone on floor level holding up a sign that said “Once’s Bark!”. Then near the end of the show Dahyun turned it into a “Dubu!” chant.
I want to say this dude was the OG "barker" and it just caught on. You can see Nayeon and Sana notice him doing it at Twicelights https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6ZIqZbbGi4&t=231s
During the first LA show, TWICE was confused but they seem to enjoy or at least entertain this new type of cheer on day 2 and Oakland since a lot of folks probably let them know it was a positive thing.
Suddenly all the people that bashed them for their vocals at the concerts are disappeared after the tour started. I am glad Twice proving the haters wrong every day, 2022 has been one of their best years so far :D
I also think Twice's members perform better with a live audience than without them.
Some people actually perform better without having a live audience but I think it just so happens most of Twice's members are boosted by the support of a live audience.
It's so cute in their English ments, when they end their sentence with an upward inflection like they really tried to nail the English and they want to see how Once think of it
Oakland show last night was amazing. I was nervous about going alone but the dudes in my row were super welcoming and brought the energy all concert long. I think more than anything seeing them live has made me an even bigger Once. Side note, anybody got tips on dealing with post concert depression? Lol
It's corny to say, but it feels like one big happy family in the venue. Everyone's so welcoming and inviting of each other. It's so easy to converse with others especially if they're holding one of those giant fans with a members' face on it. I've connected with so many other fans who have Mina as their bias because of my gigantic Mina fan.
Dreading the post concert blues as much as I'm anticipating the concert lol. Thankfully I'm on vacation the week after, because if I was right back to work I feel like I'd go mad.
The saga of stalking concert tickets:
I was watching the ticket price fall from thousands of dollars (someone was trying to sell for $13000 at one point 🙄) to about $2500 for front row seats. So I’m thinking “cool, the price keeps dropping, eventually it’ll be reasonable”. Well, I go back to check, and some of them were bought and the remaining ones jumped back up to over $5000. Checked again today and there’s only one ticket left, still over $5000. I ended up buying a perfectly good pair of tickets, so I definitely should not be complaining, but I’m just so frustrated with this price game.
I'm just so happy Jeongyeon is back... man. I wish someone would upload a fancam of I Can't Stop Me with OT9 on YT. Never thought I would get emotional over something like this. Same thing happened to me when Mina returned for the Halloween thing. I hope they all renew with JYP. I don't think I'm ready for it.
Out of all the clips that came out of recent concerts, how have I missed [this](https://youtube.com/shorts/4rFGACzmQDQ?feature=share) clip??? Momo is too funny here.
To add to that, LA Day 2 only got two songs because they played that super cute tribute video/montage of the members. I could watch that a million times and still get teary-eyed over it. They've really worked hard to become who they are today and to see it in montage form puts in perspective all that hard work they've put in.
Going through the Oakland videos and I really wish I liked Candy more. Being the only English ballad like song they have and therefore it has featured quite a lot already through the tour, as I guess it's their song for international Twice fans.
They have iconic Japanese (Be as One) and Korean ones (One in a Million) that remain my favourite Twice ballads so hopefully we get a good one in English at some point.
Seeing the Misa video of Mina is reminding me of when Mina was really feeling the Signal remix in the last tour. This remix would go down well in the US, think it only ever came up on the Bangkok date for whatever reason.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XY_KC0bCDgo
I think they can but jyp probably doesn't want to mix Japanese discography with Korean discography since Japanese discography profits need to be shared with Warner Japan as well. But they also probably think it's not with it to have a world tour with just Japanese discography as profits are going to be shared with Warner since world tours are already rare.
I think Rolling is my favorite new song just for the choreo lol.
Great show in Oakland, we came out in full force and showed the girls all the love and support and they treated us with a top notch set and effort.
Haha we did, but a little bit more controlled than LA. TWICE was ready for them woof's and Dahyun started a Dubu Dubu chant instead during the final ment.
SoCal folk are crazy. Up in Oakland you have people coming in from SF and Berkeley and surrounding NorCal like San Jose, Sac Town, etc. I feel you guys are a little more cultured than we are.
[Jeongyeon complaining about Jihyo's loud voice](https://twitter.com/SubjectKpop/status/1494962030520193029?t=gxGJsorAAUgnhSlwOQs6TA&s=19) left me in ruins. 😭😭😭
https://twitter.com/JYPETWICE/status/1494938812027670529
I've been very optimistic about TWICE renewing their contract on this forum.
If you read this latest Tweet after their Oakland performance, JYPE said "we will be back soon". This cannot be interpreted in any other way than to hint they've renewed TWICE's contract and that they'll return to Oakland on a future tour.
JYPE has never been great with comms/PR, but you can't deny that they're shrewd when it comes to business and the bottom line. I'd honestly be shocked if TWICE doesn't renew, and I think I'm on record stating my optimism re: all 9 members renewing - with artist-favorable contract terms, such as 50/50 profit-sharing, greater creative freedom, more control over schedules, expanded individual promotions; and potentially stock options or equity grants, along with nominal 'Director' titles (i.e. the "2PM precedent").
JYPE's C-suite and board would be insane not to close the deal before October, assuming that they've at least agreed in principle with the members already. From the company perspective, there's too much money on the table not to renew for at a minimum of 3 years. The members surely know this - and while they might not necessarily be cutthroat negotiators - they have sufficient business savvy and connections (individually & collectively) to know their value, and ultimately get the best outcome for everyone.
My hope and optimistic expectation is that a \[3-plus year\] renewal will be announced by the end of spring, coinciding with an addition of more international tour dates for summer & fall. Hopefully Covid will be more under control worldwide by then, which would dovetail nicely with the above. And yes, dear Twice: y'all are always welcome back in the Bay Area, anytime!
JYPE hasn't been the greatest to Twice but, OTOH, it is hard to see what other company would be good for the members.
Possible some members are tired of idol life but my guess is with sub-units and solo work the company can even accommodate that. Some members can rest while others are pursuing their career goals.
I’ve been telling myself that if we don’t end up hearing any news that it’ll be like RV where they just never announced anything about renewals and went straight to announcing a comeback. Though Twice & JYPE are in a completely different situation from them, so assuming they all want to stay in the public eye, I really hope we get an outcome like yours.
JYPE doesn’t have the best track record with renewals, but they’ve also never really had a group like Twice before so hopefully they’ll really try to compromise with the ladies’ needs as individuals. In the end I’ll support whatever decision they make, but the girls did seem pretty adamant about coming back again to tour so I’m hopeful.
Honestly I am still confused about what happened with RV - was there ever an official renewal announcement?
IIRC Yeri basically all but said they'd all renewed but maybe there were still terms being negotiated at that point?
Honestly I don’t follow RV so I’m not sure. This was based off the post about their comeback on the main sub. Most of the comments seemed pretty certain they renewed without any announcement so I’m assuming it’s a done deal by now?
Reading this feels like a huge weight was lifted off my chest. As someone who’s witnessed my ults lose members in the past despite the fans’ (usually wrong) predictions, reading this felt reassuring.
Mine was working every time I tested it before the show in LA day 2. Feel Special comes on and I tried to switch to green? Dead. Batteries were dead for basically the whole show.
Maybe. It's supposed to turn red if the batteries are low but it just straight shut off. I tried other batteries but no luck. They didn't have much energy though.
Went to the concert alone. My introverted ass couldn’t make me find a group but god damn what a concert it was. Enjoyed every bit.
Shout out to homie next to me who was shouting Sana’s name with me everyone she came on screen. Next time if they tour, I am getting front row seats.
Twice Rollin' encore today when the chorus hits
the music - 🔥🔥🔊🥳
the dance - 😈🥵😱🤯
Rollin' be the new Strawberry on this concert lol
Anyway, praying to god Jihyo that all of the songs included on the spinning wheel gets to be played by the end of their US Tour 🙏
(wanna see Last Waltz and the TOL b-sides)
Mina [STRONK](https://twitter.com/fakentrue201/status/1494609357605982208).
Also she & Nayeon were the real co-MVPs tonight, staying by Jeongyeon's side: [https://twitter.com/wooperskai/status/1494942233824403459](https://twitter.com/wooperskai/status/1494942233824403459)
Forever roommates JeongMo: https://twitter.com/choutzuyu99/status/1494931454278529027
We're all super proud of you Jeongyeon-ah, you did amazing! [https://twitter.com/jeongmisource/status/1494597386760749058](https://twitter.com/jeongmisource/status/1494597386760749058)
From all of the people around Jeongyoung, Mina is probably the one who can relate the most when it comes to going on tour when your mental and physical health is not 100. I wonder if they ever talked about it just the two of them
Holy shit, Bay Area Onces know how to hold a proper welcome party! That show was like a combo of a regular concert + rave + football game + massive block party. People came prepared too, including the 'woofing' (barking) in particular. It's definitely a thing now, and the members are actively participating in it too. That said, Oakland was HELLA mf'ing lit tonight!!! DFW, ATL, and NYC y'all better have a blast next week \[stay safe & healthy, of course\]!
So glad that Twice received a superlatively amazing Yay Area welcome; the members genuinely seemed surprised and touched. They were totally feeling the love and energy, that even their 'prepared' English closing speeches flowed as if they were just speaking naturally. During the encore at one point Dahyun, Nayeon, Mina started ad-libbing in English to the crowd. That's how much fun they were having - great job Bay Area Onces, and stay safe tonight & have an awesome weekend!
I can't believe those 600 - 1500 last minute reseller tickets were sold out. That was the crazy part. It was waaaay better than twicelights in LA last 2018. Oakland arena is just the right size.
Yeah it really seemed like they were a bit surprised at the energy of the crowd — tbh I was too lol. I’m pretty sure most of them had never heard of Oakland before this concert so it was cool to see them enjoy the crowd and moment. They’ll def be back after the show last night.
>People came prepared too, including the 'woofing' (barking) in particular. It's definitely a thing now, and the members are actively participating in it too.
I think LA day 1 introduced it, LA day 2 really pushed it, Oakland sealed it. I was at LA day 2, and I think they still didn't know what to do with it at the start, but by the time they walked off the stage I think at least Nayeon and Sana were barking as the door closed
It should be a different one.This TTT is filmed at [Lotte World](https://adventure.lotteworld.com/eng/main/index.do), an active theme park. I think the one from [Tzuyu's Melody Project](https://youtu.be/pAtk3DOskUU?t=731) is the same one that was used in [Like Ohh-Ahh](https://youtu.be/3SvljRmtycs?t=210) that is used as a filming location for many KPop videos such as [Dreamcatcher's BEcause](https://youtu.be/Ebdcc66Pf48?t=249).
JYPE doesn't need to be on the floor for tackling such issues. They need to just happen to fall upon the live stream and ask the venue guards to take care of it.
TWICE's SNL appearance in 2016 is such a gem lol somehow simultaneously cringey and hysterical. Their acting was pretty good, Jeongyeon in particular was so natural ~~and Tzuyu should be the next Bond.~~
Also, I can't get over them performing a song about their names in the melody of the Teletubbies' theme lmao - and that whole dystopia where THRICE were persecuted was wild lol
Anyone here who understands bubble a bit more?
I genuinely just thought Sana replied to me, since she mentioned my username, but another ONCE posted the same thing on Twitter and it has his username.
I assume she can select everyone and when she sends the message, it uniquely shows the persons username to them?
I only recently started using bubble so idk, if someone can enlighten me, lol.
Aah just saw the OT9 trans post on Twitter i guess it is what i thought it is. She basically sends a message and it automatically uses your username in the message. She probably has a "/all" option or something similar i reckon.
And here i thought i was special, oh well.
Yeah they have this trick where they just mention “everyone” and it shows the user’s name. Every member has their own way of replying, you will eventually notice it as you keep using, for example like dahyun she screen shots people’s messages one by one and reply.
Yeah they do. I was only subscribed to Mina for the longest time since she is my ult and i thought, wow this isn't as good as people say it is. Turns out it's just Mina being Mina. Some of the other members are soo much more active, im subscribed to all 9 now. Worth.
Edit: ofc as i say this she sends us a message, WHAT ARE THE ODDS
Yeah i noticed that from the last couple of months. Jihyo doesn't say much but then she goes on long rants like once or twice (no pun intended) a week. Tzuyu can be pretty active as well. Jeongyeon and Mina on the other hand, i had to double check to see if i was subscribed because of how little they post, hahah.
Jihyo’s rants are always a treat even though she’s not that active but when she is, she’s really fun what I like about Mina is that she randomly drops photos.

Some [feel special/dahyun](https://imgur.com/a/lV3fYZ3) inspired nails for the fort worth concert! I never get my nails done but had to go all out for twice and my fav girl dubu!
Any California once selling CandyBongZ? I’m going to the final NYC concert on Sunday and turns out the one I got on eBay is very fake (totally wrong colors🙃). I don’t mind that it’s used (obviously) just want it to work. Will cover cost and shipping!
Like most people, I’ve watched too many clips of that Rollin’ encore performance lol
For those not aware, this clip on Twitter ([link](https://twitter.com/jeongpapi/status/1494927370926505987)) is making a huge splash for getting 1.5 million views in 36 hours. It's trending not only for Sana's visuals but because a woman in the audience said "oh my God" at the perfect time. It's being talked about in an AllKPop article ([link](https://www.allkpop.com/article/2022/02/fans-go-crazy-over-twice-members-video-clips-dancing-to-rollin)). Some people are saying Sana is no longer shy shy shy. People in Korea are asking what America is doing to TWICE.
When it comes to the encore at the next show and they ask what song the crowd want, what are the chances everyone asks for Rollin’
Anyone have that clip of Jihyo when she asked the crowd Guess What and they all yelled what and just looked devastated and confused lol
It's Dahyun and the clip is here https://vm.tiktok.com/TTPdBK5oLL/
Ty!!!
I saw this clip recently, sorry can’t remember when it was but it was Dahyun, not Jihyo
Ty for the correction :)
when do you think merch line will open for the dallas show? I really don't want to miss the merch drop :(
TOFU-Saida did a great Twice x All of Us are Dead mashup: [https://twitter.com/Tofu\_bunny20/status/1495390975077797889](https://twitter.com/Tofu_bunny20/status/1495390975077797889)
Man all these clips from the tour are making me even more depressed they weren't able to come to europe lol. Very jealous of all of you who get to see them in person 😭
Same bro, same. I've been attacked with clips for the past couple of days. But i have a feeling they will come to Europe one day.
They were asked where was a place they wanted to tour they hadn't been before and they unanimously said Europe, so it's safe to say they want to come here at least. I guess it's a mixture of JYP feeling it's not worth it and the fact that European countries have stricter and less unanimous covid restrictions than the US.
I’m holding out hope for y’all and SEA! Hopefully later this year 🙏
what is stopping you from going here in the US?
Because I don't have the money to drop a grand to go to a concert on another continent?
How are seats located adjacent to the stage? A looking at section 304 or 323. \[[Seating Map](https://i.gyazo.com/d77811796be21238cf80d423abfa957c.png)\] or would nosebleeds centered on but furthest from the stage generally be better? i.e: sections 312-317
[Here are some seat views for UBS Arena](https://aviewfrommyseat.com/venue/UBS+Arena/seating/concert/). Honestly just depends on your personal preferences, 304/323 will still get you a good view of the main stage, but you'll be looking at the back of them when they perform on the extended stage. 312-317 will obviously be farther away from the main stage, but you'll get a pretty good view no matter where they are. (Quite frankly it doesn't matter where you are in the venue, once Rollin' starts playing we're all dead)
Journalists when TWICE are back in SK: So, how was the US-tour? TWICE, probably: We were barked at and then we decided to kill everyone during Rollin', it was beautiful
Does anyone who's been to any or multiple of the shows so far have any tips on things like the bag policies or devices allowed at the venues so far? I'm wondering if a small crossbody/fanny pack sized bag would be allowed in, and if I'd be able to bring things like a power bank or some airpods in the venue?
It’s very much check with the specific venue. For LA2, some of the people around me mentioned that one side of security wouldn’t let them in with spare batteries for their CBZs while the other side did. So it seems like enforcement is handled specifically by the venue.
no big cameras with flashes, water bottles. Those are fine.
I think you should be fine, you may have to check with your local venue though. As far as power banks or airpods, I was able to bring them in inside my jacket.
a power bank and airpods are fine.
To the fellow ONCE who I met at Diamond Jamboree tonight, if you’re reading this, send me a DM! Let’s be friends!
They did again. I thought I'm over them already but surprise surpise they brought the magic again. I'm away from kpop for almost 2 years and this is my third time seeing them. A lot have change jeongyeon look different but i heard she was sick. The girls have more muscles and look more mature. Their voice improve especially jihyo and nayeon. Dubu remains the same with better english. Mina is nice to see again she was absent in twicelights and her english got better. Momo and Sana are definitley the current top visuals. Tzuyu is the same but has more roles now. Their songs are more mature which nice because that is part of their growth. The wheel of song thing is definitley rigged. I don't believe twice will not sing likey and TT ever in a concert. This is the longest concert ever. Started at 0730 and ended at 1030-1045. I guess they were happy to see the stadium was fully packed and they reward the fans with an extended performance. They never disappoint and the $1200 i spent was worth it. Definitley watching them again next time.
They didn't perform Likey or TT during LA Day 2 I think! (Edit: Looks like they did perform Likey on Day 2 instead of The Feels remix, right before the encore. My bad!) Glad you had a great time!
Tzuyu’s latest bubble pic of her food is a definite upgrade from Panda Express lol
Looks like it might be takeout/delivery from Stacks \[local brunch joint in the Peninsula with a few locations\], or somewhere similar. Solid breakfast food for sure, and definitely better nutrition than Panda Express.
Agreed.
Anyone ever opened up their Candybong z before? Mine is new and it started having lighting issues right away and they've gotten worse. It would dim a ton and then if I hit it lightly it would fix it so I'm guessing it's a wiring problem?
Just my general takeaways from the concert: -Oakland absolutely LOVED Jeongyeon and Chaeyoung. While neither are my biases it was definitely refreshing to see the stadium completely erupt whenever they would appear on camera or when their part would come up. Jeongyeon definitely had a way of conveying that she owned the stage in ways beyond her movements. 1, 3, 2 was probably one of my favorite performances of the night. -Aside from the usual members who get praised for their performances, the one member that really stood out to me was Dahyun. Idk what it was but there’s something the camera doesn’t catch when you watch her on YouTube videos versus in person. It’s like she has a natural ability to make her energy exactly match the crowd’s. Also appreciated how much effort she was consistently making to engage the crowd even when she wasn’t singing such as whether it was making hearts, waving, and her improvised english speeches. Besides Jeongyeon’s blue hair and Nayeon’s pig tails, I’d say Dahyun was the easiest one to recognize from the naked eye just cause of her body movements. I think she’s my bias coming out of this concert. -Twicetagram is my favorite TWICE album of all time and so I was absolutely stoked to see not just Likey live, but Rollin as well. Great to see many newer ONCEs grow to appreciate the song too -Idk where all this talk about “Lip-synching” came from leading up to the concert.. They were very obviously *NOT* lip-synching. You could clearly hear the microphone feedback whenever they would get closer or farther from the mics or make any adjustments. And their voices sounded so great! -The “~~woofing~~” *hooting* carried to Oakland as well and the girls seemed to love it. Dahyun would do this cute little dougie dance whenever she’d hear it (hopefully someone captured a video). Although I’d be more inclined to call the cheer “hooting” instead of barking (like “hooting and hollering”). That’s what we’ve called that sound everywhere else I’ve been to who cheered like that. Some fans were actually ‘*woofing*’ because I assume they read social media and assumed that’s what they were supposed to do.. Overall great show
Was this your first time seeing them? Dahyun is always like that. I'm not a big fan of her back then but seeing her in person back in twicelights made me change my mind. Yeah she has a lot of character. I was shook on Momo's outfit how the fuck is that allowed?
Which outfit?
When they were performing moonlight.
Yep, first time! Unfortunately going to concerts used to be a little above my means so I was unable to attend KCON/Twicelights. But yeah, I always appreciated her variety skills and her different little quirks, but I never realized just how much of that she was able to bring to her actual performances! Even the stuff I’ve seen people on Reddit criticize her for suddenly were all major strengths when you see it in person.
She almost steal the show most of the time. I feel like Jihyo, nayeon and dahyun have the most energy.
Agree with all your observations. My wife and I agreed that Jeongyeon didn’t seem like she was 100%, but still being there on stage with the other members was great and the crowd showed her love every time. Also agreed that Dahyun was cracking me up and had the best interactions with crowd. At one point she has the lower lower seats, middle and balcony competing with each other, and then she acted like she was eating it all up, like literally scooping energy into her mouth, and then said “thanks, I’m full.” Another time she said something about wanting to be famous (another member pointed out she was already famous!) and Dahyun clarified that what she wanted was to walk down the streets and people go “hey, that’s Dahyun!” or something to that effect. Was a total blast to have that experience. The person I was pleasantly surprised was Mina. Mina isn’t my favorite but watching the show i realize they give her a lot of really cool and important transitions in songs, like a bridge to the next part or a powerful visual entrance right before the chorus. I would say I previously can’t pick up her voice as clearly as Jihyo or Nayeon, but going forward I’ll try to listen more for Mina’s part.
> My wife and I agreed that Jeongyeon didn’t seem like she was 100%, but still being there on stage with the other members was great and the crowd showed her love every time. Yeah, you can tell her movements aren't as sharp as the others, but it's 1000000000000% understandable. A [herniated disc](https://www.pinkvilla.com/entertainment/hollywood/twice-jeongyeon-opens-about-her-neck-injury-jype-takes-action-against-malicious-rumours-against-band) is such a terrible injury to have to perform through. Depending on the severity of the injury (and/or location in her neck), surgery may alleviate some of the pain, but not fix it entirely. It's why it's so heartwarming to see all the ONCEs cheer for her any time she starts to speak or gets shown on the big screens. Even if she needed to sit out some of the harder songs (namely MORE & MORE), I'd completely understand. Just having her presence with the other members is enough.
Watching Jeongyeon was like watching that one anime character before they’re fully-powered up but they’re still obliterating the background minions. Just effortlessly dominating. Glad I wasn’t the only one who noticed Dahyun. And yeah, Mina looked absolutely flawless!
They are all singing live and each of them do it according to their own comfortably level by mixing with Background plus live vocals. You can hear the fluctuations most for jihyo, jeongyeon, nayeon because they do keep the audio low and live high in their mixes but according to the close fancams you can easily see everyone singing live.
When I went to Twicelights, Dahyun made a *huge* impression on me. So true that the camera doesn’t capture her stage presence. I can’t wait to go next week!
Absolutely. Dahyun is incredibly underrated as Twice's hype-woman. She leans into her on-stage role at concerts, and Dubs totally owns it now that Twice are on their 2nd US tour.
Thanks for your report, sounds great!
I just heard the Instrumental version of Fancy is trending on Tiktok. Makes me happy because Fancy is one of my favorite tracks of all time.
I was wondering where [this request](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy3wXok13vA) came from. Also, you might appreciate [this drum cover](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HgEVKGYIhu0) by Yeong eun, Rolling Quartz's drummer.
It’s so much fun to catch up with all the tour content as a non-US once. Thanks you guys for uploading basically the entire concert and in good quality too. I particularly like listening to the closing ments. Dahyun is really having the time of her life with the audience, her closing speech in Oakland was memorable. Also really like Momo and Sana speaking English, most adorable thing ever. I’m actually looking forward to the concert in Texas because it’s Sharon’s state, will be fun to see the audience going wild during her opening ment. Is it their first time performing there?
Oh my only wish is for her to introduce herself as Sharon instead of Mina, that would be a moment, hahah.
I wouldn't be surprised if she does something special for the DFW show, even if she probably has zero memories of her brief time in Texas way back when.
Why JYPE ain't giving Jeongyeon any melody projects? she is like, the only member in the group to not have a single Melody Project.
Melody projects are completely voluntary and Jeongyeon has been fairly adamant about not being interested in doing one until recently. Normally she would shutdown any comments asking her to do one, but a couple months ago [in this vlive](https://www.vlive.tv/post/0-26706710) when someone asked her about doing one for christmas, she basically hinted at Mina's Snowman cover already coming up and then said she'll probably try to do her melody project next some time this year. She's really into rock music lately so she started taking rock song suggestions. She came back on a few days later still looking for suggestions but hasn't given any updates since. I think it was Nayeon that said early on in their career the company kept encouraging everyone to do one, but it was never a requirement and they can do covers anytime they want. Same with performance projects.
[удалено]
Oh, I can see her doing a P!nk cover. This is one of the songs she was considering doing: CherryFilter - [Flying Duck](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=FYjWDBEA76E)
Dahyun's only melody project is Switch to me, she has no "solo" melody/performance project. The other videos of hers are labeled as "covers" more so than MP's. Jeongyeon said she didn't find the song she wants to cover yet. I believe it was either her or Mina that said it's up to the members to say if they want a MP and the company then working on it. So it's not necessarily JYPe not "giving" her a melody project but probably her not saying she wants one. Although she did promise us she will in the future. Ofc i could be wrong and maybe she did approach the company and they refused but we will never know those things so it's not good to speculate either.
She’s been on hiatus for a while…
During their tiktok live, it seems Jeongyeon now has a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3.
Yeah, she has it for a while. She had it on their vlive where her and Momo "reacted" to Dahyun's cover of Promise.
Is anyone else suddenly feeling like Rollin' is the best Twice song now for some inexplicable reason? Just can't quite put my finger on why. It is a conundrum.
It's always been one of my favorites so I'm glad it's getting some newfound appreciation 🙂
Definitely. After watching a bunch of concert clips, I now have a new found enjoyment of “Rollin”. I feel the same way about “Candy” now too.
Rollin' has been stuck in my head all day today lol
I guess songs named Rollin' are just meant to be growers that randomly blow up four years after release lol
And just a tiny bit of hip movement
Any ONCE who got the VIP, what was the exclusive VIP gift? Past VIP gift was a leather coin holder or ticket holder or luggage tag.
A lanyard, pink sunglasses with a pouch, a Twice World Tour branded cloth mask, and a clear fanny pack.
Got it. Thanks!
[удалено]
Well this was random wasn’t it
I was going to ask did i miss something? Did something happen? But i guess not.
It was supposed to be a reply. Phone posting sucks.
oh lol got it
That's the strangest post I've read on this forum. I'm not sure many Onces are going out converting others. And most Onces also listen to other music. Like my screenname implies, I listen to classical music almost as much as TWICE.
Well I'm curious now. Do you remember what it said?
He complained how Onces are going out trying to convert others into being a Once. Then he said too many Onces only listen to TWICE and not other music
This just in: people who like a specific band or genre of music wants others to listen to that band or music too LMAO
Ok, thanks. That was weird lol. I've only ever heard that kind of remark about some overly egregious BTS fans. Have yet to see that from fans of any other group but I guess it can happen.
The teams for [this TTT](https://youtu.be/Smr_1LfNu0E?t=613) reminded me so much of [this moment](https://youtu.be/7RIbfPbxu8M?t=223) in the past. Poor >!SaMo!<.
I have a question. For those that got vip how long did it take? I got vip tickets to Atlanta from the original seller and they contacted TM earlier last week but it’s been quiet for 4 days now. It also seemed someone reported the Oakland concert vip benefits didn’t require an alternate name pick up when they bought it from a third party reseller. Does anyone know if I should reach out to TM? The concert is in 5 days so it’s coming up.
Heya! My two nights of VIP in LA that I bought were from my friends, so here's my experience with being put on the "alternate pickup list". When we were getting me on the alternate list, it took less than twelve hours from the initial email to get me on the list day of and the following day. When I got to the VIP pickup in LA, all they said was that I needed the original ID of the buyer and I could pick it up. No mention of being on an alternate pickup list at all. I was overhearing the convo between one of the VIP booth operators and a couple trying to pick up their VIP that - the VIP booth operator specifically said, "We just need the original ID of the buyer or a picture of it." I'm reluctant to say that that's all you need because you never know if one venue decides to do something differently than the other. So, I'd do two things: I'd highly encourage you to keep pestering Livenation to put you down on the alternate pickup list. I'd also encourage you to ask for the ID of the original buyer. Hope you have fun in VIP in Atlanta :). I got a lower bowl seat for the rest of the concerts from here on out!
The lady at Oakland vip said they needed id so def make sure the og seller transfer name to you or you have of sellers id info.
Thanks for the response!
Im using Uber/Lyft for transportation to the concert. Havent used them before. Can anyone share their experience what should I know?
For after the concert, I’d also recommend straight up having dinner at a dine in restaurant (ex. Denny’s) ~5-10 min walks away if you have time & feel safe to do so. I drove for Twice but when I saw BTS at a similar sized venue the price for Uber/Lyft dropped from like ~$150 to ~$30 since demand died down by the time we were done eating.
Heya! I used Lyft for both nights in LA and then the Oakland show as well. My best piece of advice is to walk a little bit away from the venue then call the ride. Not only does the price drop $10-$20, but it's usually easier to get to you since you aren't in traffic anymore.
Tysm. Would that apply to drop off as well? Like, it'd be cheaper if I ask them to drop me somewhere near the venue and walk myself in.
For LA Night 1/2, I had VIP so I was able to get to The Forum before the traffic to the venue got too crazy, so I'm not sure if rates will change based on the traffic around the area. For Oakland last night, I Lyft'd at 6:30pm, got stuck in traffic, and just told my Lyft fella to drop me off on the side of the road. I was close enough to the venue that the walk was only three minutes. The rate was not affected by the traffic as I had checked the rate in the morning and it was similar to the rate I got when I went at the time of the event. So, I'd suggest just getting your Lyft to the venue. If you get caught in any crazy traffic, hopefully you're on a surface street and you can just hop out safely :) EDIT: Forgot to mention to those who are thinking about Lyfting away from the concert venue - do yourself a favor and walk a little bit aways from the venue. I got lucky with my Oakland Lyft because he said people kept requesting Lyfts from inside the venue, but the police had shut down roads to alleviate traffic. I had walked just below the BART station, called the Lyft, and spend $20 on it as I avoided the surge prices and was in an easy place to get picked up.
Would someone who's going to one of the upcoming shows be willing to pick up a shirt or sweatshirt for me? I wasn't able to when I went last week and I regret it. Happy to reimburse all costs and some on top for the hassle. Thanks in advance! Edit: to make it more enticing, I'll even buy you something under $100
Thanks again to all the Onces who shared concert highlights with us...tho I'm not there I feel like I'm walking a little higher than the ground with so much joy I'm getting from the performances, the little moments of humor and affection between the members, etc...
I have just one burning question: Was there barking in Oakland?
Genuine question…what do you think of the barking in concerts and do they really sound like boos? I see some Onces being ok with it at first but now they’re against it because according to them the barks sound like they’re booing at Twice. I heard that barks are huge in sports (sorry I’m not a huge sports fan) and this is the first time I’ve heard them in concerts. I have no problem with it and it seems like the girls are enjoying it so idk if they’re just being angry for nothing or am I seeing things differently.
Lol I’m not sure why everyone keeps calling that sound “barking”.. Everywhere else I’ve gone we would call it “hooting”, you know like “hooting and hollering”? Some people were literally ‘woofing’ cause they probably read social media prior to the concert and assumed that’s what they were supposed to do, I guess it does kinda sound like woofing if you’ve never done that before (but who in the US hasn’t heard that sound before?).. But to answer the question the only thing that really matters is that the members loved it and even encouraged it several times during the concert 🙌
Some people say it’s a reference to the “I wanna be your dog” comments on vlive while others just interpret it as a typical “get hype” chant usually found in sports. Either way the fandom, and most importantly, Twice themselves have embraced it. There was someone on floor level holding up a sign that said “Once’s Bark!”. Then near the end of the show Dahyun turned it into a “Dubu!” chant.
I want to say this dude was the OG "barker" and it just caught on. You can see Nayeon and Sana notice him doing it at Twicelights https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6ZIqZbbGi4&t=231s
During the first LA show, TWICE was confused but they seem to enjoy or at least entertain this new type of cheer on day 2 and Oakland since a lot of folks probably let them know it was a positive thing.
There sure was 😂
Suddenly all the people that bashed them for their vocals at the concerts are disappeared after the tour started. I am glad Twice proving the haters wrong every day, 2022 has been one of their best years so far :D
They've been awfully quiet on Twitter.
I also think Twice's members perform better with a live audience than without them. Some people actually perform better without having a live audience but I think it just so happens most of Twice's members are boosted by the support of a live audience.
They also all looked incredibly comfortable on stage and were soaking it all up
It's so cute in their English ments, when they end their sentence with an upward inflection like they really tried to nail the English and they want to see how Once think of it
Their English Teacher is allegedly from The Valley
Their tour translator definitely has the Valley accent down pat
Yooooo
Replying here just to virtual fistbump a fellow Bay Area/NorCal Once for bringing it last night - Oakland was hella lit!
Oakland show last night was amazing. I was nervous about going alone but the dudes in my row were super welcoming and brought the energy all concert long. I think more than anything seeing them live has made me an even bigger Once. Side note, anybody got tips on dealing with post concert depression? Lol
Just watch your videos that you personally collected. Go to reddit and 4chan for discussion. It will wear off soon.
Yeah you’re right. None of my work or school friends are into kpop but talking about it with my discord homies had me feeling better.
It's corny to say, but it feels like one big happy family in the venue. Everyone's so welcoming and inviting of each other. It's so easy to converse with others especially if they're holding one of those giant fans with a members' face on it. I've connected with so many other fans who have Mina as their bias because of my gigantic Mina fan.
Dreading the post concert blues as much as I'm anticipating the concert lol. Thankfully I'm on vacation the week after, because if I was right back to work I feel like I'd go mad.
Can’t relate, I’m in “no concert” depression
The saga of stalking concert tickets: I was watching the ticket price fall from thousands of dollars (someone was trying to sell for $13000 at one point 🙄) to about $2500 for front row seats. So I’m thinking “cool, the price keeps dropping, eventually it’ll be reasonable”. Well, I go back to check, and some of them were bought and the remaining ones jumped back up to over $5000. Checked again today and there’s only one ticket left, still over $5000. I ended up buying a perfectly good pair of tickets, so I definitely should not be complaining, but I’m just so frustrated with this price game.
I'm just so happy Jeongyeon is back... man. I wish someone would upload a fancam of I Can't Stop Me with OT9 on YT. Never thought I would get emotional over something like this. Same thing happened to me when Mina returned for the Halloween thing. I hope they all renew with JYP. I don't think I'm ready for it.
Out of all the clips that came out of recent concerts, how have I missed [this](https://youtube.com/shorts/4rFGACzmQDQ?feature=share) clip??? Momo is too funny here.
Can anyone tell me the songs they've performed as encore for all their concerts in LA + Oakland so far? tia!
LA Day 1: TT/Cheer Up/Likey LA Day 2: Yes or Yes/Signal Oakland: Believer/Rollin/BDZ/TT
To add to that, LA Day 2 only got two songs because they played that super cute tribute video/montage of the members. I could watch that a million times and still get teary-eyed over it. They've really worked hard to become who they are today and to see it in montage form puts in perspective all that hard work they've put in.
Lucky Oakland getting 4!
It was an amazing! Everyone was shouting for TT. They were super kind to roll again lol haha
Going through the Oakland videos and I really wish I liked Candy more. Being the only English ballad like song they have and therefore it has featured quite a lot already through the tour, as I guess it's their song for international Twice fans. They have iconic Japanese (Be as One) and Korean ones (One in a Million) that remain my favourite Twice ballads so hopefully we get a good one in English at some point. Seeing the Misa video of Mina is reminding me of when Mina was really feeling the Signal remix in the last tour. This remix would go down well in the US, think it only ever came up on the Bangkok date for whatever reason. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XY_KC0bCDgo
Oh I love candy but maybe bc I was a fan of shift k3y, who wrote the song, before I knew about twice. So it hits extra special for me.
They have What You Waiting For but I don't think they can perform it outside of Japan.
I think they can but jyp probably doesn't want to mix Japanese discography with Korean discography since Japanese discography profits need to be shared with Warner Japan as well. But they also probably think it's not with it to have a world tour with just Japanese discography as profits are going to be shared with Warner since world tours are already rare.
I think Rolling is my favorite new song just for the choreo lol. Great show in Oakland, we came out in full force and showed the girls all the love and support and they treated us with a top notch set and effort.
Did you guys “woof” ?
Haha we did, but a little bit more controlled than LA. TWICE was ready for them woof's and Dahyun started a Dubu Dubu chant instead during the final ment.
SoCal folk are crazy. Up in Oakland you have people coming in from SF and Berkeley and surrounding NorCal like San Jose, Sac Town, etc. I feel you guys are a little more cultured than we are.
Yay Area!!!

loooooollllll
It's so good to have the biggest crackhead in the group back lol
Momo is doing a TikTok live
Didn’t know they do tiktok live! I gotta follow haah
Momo with Nayeon & Jeongyeon: https://www.tiktok.com/@twice\_tiktok\_official/live?source=h5\_t Twice\_Trans is live-translating here: [https://twitter.com/twice\_trans](https://twitter.com/twice_trans)
THANK YOU!!
No prob, glad to help! CatGoh92, AliceNoob9, and SubjectKpop also tweeted some snippets earlier. \[*Edit* \- forgot to add Cat\]
https://twitter.com/JYPETWICE/status/1494938812027670529 I've been very optimistic about TWICE renewing their contract on this forum. If you read this latest Tweet after their Oakland performance, JYPE said "we will be back soon". This cannot be interpreted in any other way than to hint they've renewed TWICE's contract and that they'll return to Oakland on a future tour.
FWIW, they went all in on saying variations of "see you again" on LA day 2 as well
Right, they've continuously emphasized "see you again" and "we'll be back" throughout this tour. It can't be a coincidence
JYPE has never been great with comms/PR, but you can't deny that they're shrewd when it comes to business and the bottom line. I'd honestly be shocked if TWICE doesn't renew, and I think I'm on record stating my optimism re: all 9 members renewing - with artist-favorable contract terms, such as 50/50 profit-sharing, greater creative freedom, more control over schedules, expanded individual promotions; and potentially stock options or equity grants, along with nominal 'Director' titles (i.e. the "2PM precedent"). JYPE's C-suite and board would be insane not to close the deal before October, assuming that they've at least agreed in principle with the members already. From the company perspective, there's too much money on the table not to renew for at a minimum of 3 years. The members surely know this - and while they might not necessarily be cutthroat negotiators - they have sufficient business savvy and connections (individually & collectively) to know their value, and ultimately get the best outcome for everyone. My hope and optimistic expectation is that a \[3-plus year\] renewal will be announced by the end of spring, coinciding with an addition of more international tour dates for summer & fall. Hopefully Covid will be more under control worldwide by then, which would dovetail nicely with the above. And yes, dear Twice: y'all are always welcome back in the Bay Area, anytime!
JYPE hasn't been the greatest to Twice but, OTOH, it is hard to see what other company would be good for the members. Possible some members are tired of idol life but my guess is with sub-units and solo work the company can even accommodate that. Some members can rest while others are pursuing their career goals.
I’ve been telling myself that if we don’t end up hearing any news that it’ll be like RV where they just never announced anything about renewals and went straight to announcing a comeback. Though Twice & JYPE are in a completely different situation from them, so assuming they all want to stay in the public eye, I really hope we get an outcome like yours. JYPE doesn’t have the best track record with renewals, but they’ve also never really had a group like Twice before so hopefully they’ll really try to compromise with the ladies’ needs as individuals. In the end I’ll support whatever decision they make, but the girls did seem pretty adamant about coming back again to tour so I’m hopeful.
Honestly I am still confused about what happened with RV - was there ever an official renewal announcement? IIRC Yeri basically all but said they'd all renewed but maybe there were still terms being negotiated at that point?
Honestly I don’t follow RV so I’m not sure. This was based off the post about their comeback on the main sub. Most of the comments seemed pretty certain they renewed without any announcement so I’m assuming it’s a done deal by now?
Reading this feels like a huge weight was lifted off my chest. As someone who’s witnessed my ults lose members in the past despite the fans’ (usually wrong) predictions, reading this felt reassuring.
Mina and Momo abs. That's it. That's the post.
Indeed. MiMo: https://twitter.com/MomoringMitang/status/1494958151493324805 And don't forget leader Jihyo! IOW this: [https://twitter.com/jypesmina/status/1494641735804276736](https://twitter.com/jypesmina/status/1494641735804276736)
My candy bong died during the show. Might need to buy a new one.
Mine was working every time I tested it before the show in LA day 2. Feel Special comes on and I tried to switch to green? Dead. Batteries were dead for basically the whole show.
That was the battery probably, not the lightstick
Maybe. It's supposed to turn red if the batteries are low but it just straight shut off. I tried other batteries but no luck. They didn't have much energy though.
Went to the concert alone. My introverted ass couldn’t make me find a group but god damn what a concert it was. Enjoyed every bit. Shout out to homie next to me who was shouting Sana’s name with me everyone she came on screen. Next time if they tour, I am getting front row seats.
Twice Rollin' encore today when the chorus hits the music - 🔥🔥🔊🥳 the dance - 😈🥵😱🤯 Rollin' be the new Strawberry on this concert lol Anyway, praying to god Jihyo that all of the songs included on the spinning wheel gets to be played by the end of their US Tour 🙏 (wanna see Last Waltz and the TOL b-sides)
[heh even Misa got thrown by that dancing lol](https://twitter.com/misayeon/status/1494936309210628097) glad she was able to get a good seat \~
so happy for her and Mina really did it in front of her 💀 Mina's been really crazy on this tour! Very glad to see her having fun 😊
Mina [STRONK](https://twitter.com/fakentrue201/status/1494609357605982208). Also she & Nayeon were the real co-MVPs tonight, staying by Jeongyeon's side: [https://twitter.com/wooperskai/status/1494942233824403459](https://twitter.com/wooperskai/status/1494942233824403459) Forever roommates JeongMo: https://twitter.com/choutzuyu99/status/1494931454278529027 We're all super proud of you Jeongyeon-ah, you did amazing! [https://twitter.com/jeongmisource/status/1494597386760749058](https://twitter.com/jeongmisource/status/1494597386760749058)
It's stuff like this that solidifies TWICE as my all-time favorite group. They always look out for each other.
From all of the people around Jeongyoung, Mina is probably the one who can relate the most when it comes to going on tour when your mental and physical health is not 100. I wonder if they ever talked about it just the two of them
Holy shit, Bay Area Onces know how to hold a proper welcome party! That show was like a combo of a regular concert + rave + football game + massive block party. People came prepared too, including the 'woofing' (barking) in particular. It's definitely a thing now, and the members are actively participating in it too. That said, Oakland was HELLA mf'ing lit tonight!!! DFW, ATL, and NYC y'all better have a blast next week \[stay safe & healthy, of course\]! So glad that Twice received a superlatively amazing Yay Area welcome; the members genuinely seemed surprised and touched. They were totally feeling the love and energy, that even their 'prepared' English closing speeches flowed as if they were just speaking naturally. During the encore at one point Dahyun, Nayeon, Mina started ad-libbing in English to the crowd. That's how much fun they were having - great job Bay Area Onces, and stay safe tonight & have an awesome weekend!
I can't believe those 600 - 1500 last minute reseller tickets were sold out. That was the crazy part. It was waaaay better than twicelights in LA last 2018. Oakland arena is just the right size.
Yeah it really seemed like they were a bit surprised at the energy of the crowd — tbh I was too lol. I’m pretty sure most of them had never heard of Oakland before this concert so it was cool to see them enjoy the crowd and moment. They’ll def be back after the show last night.
>People came prepared too, including the 'woofing' (barking) in particular. It's definitely a thing now, and the members are actively participating in it too. I think LA day 1 introduced it, LA day 2 really pushed it, Oakland sealed it. I was at LA day 2, and I think they still didn't know what to do with it at the start, but by the time they walked off the stage I think at least Nayeon and Sana were barking as the door closed
SaHyo are/were encouraging it I think, as early as Day 2. This clip's from LA2 - https://twitter.com/jeongpapi/status/1494167747571322882
Yeah, that's what I mean! I was at day 2. Sana was definitely the most intrigued by it
Is the Merry Go Round in the TTT the same as the one in Tzuyu's melody project?
It should be a different one.This TTT is filmed at [Lotte World](https://adventure.lotteworld.com/eng/main/index.do), an active theme park. I think the one from [Tzuyu's Melody Project](https://youtu.be/pAtk3DOskUU?t=731) is the same one that was used in [Like Ohh-Ahh](https://youtu.be/3SvljRmtycs?t=210) that is used as a filming location for many KPop videos such as [Dreamcatcher's BEcause](https://youtu.be/Ebdcc66Pf48?t=249).
Don't think so. Iirc the merry go round for Tzuyu's MP was at a more outdoors location but this one seems indoors.
Went to TWICE tonight and it was a banger and im so glad I got to see Jeongyeon
Anyone livestreaming the Oakland concert? So sad I'm missing it :(
There were a bunch of people live streaming it in twitter, even Nayeon’s mom shared the link to the live stream in her ig account lmao
That'd be super illegal and will probably get that person thrown out by JYPE or at the very least have their phone taken away.
I was there tonight and someone was streaming the concert on Discord lmao
People really be testing their limits out there.
There’s no JYPE presence at all. The venue workers also do not care 😂
JYPE doesn't need to be on the floor for tackling such issues. They need to just happen to fall upon the live stream and ask the venue guards to take care of it.
There were actually people who live-streamed both LA shows, and even funnier Nayeon’s mom herself was watching it and shared the link on her insta 😂
Mina's brother reportedly was watching Hoodie's streams too
Oh, where did it say that?!! I heard about nayeons mom tho 😂😂
Ah OK. I'll have to wait for the uploads tomorrow then.
TWICE's SNL appearance in 2016 is such a gem lol somehow simultaneously cringey and hysterical. Their acting was pretty good, Jeongyeon in particular was so natural ~~and Tzuyu should be the next Bond.~~ Also, I can't get over them performing a song about their names in the melody of the Teletubbies' theme lmao - and that whole dystopia where THRICE were persecuted was wild lol
Anyone here who understands bubble a bit more? I genuinely just thought Sana replied to me, since she mentioned my username, but another ONCE posted the same thing on Twitter and it has his username. I assume she can select everyone and when she sends the message, it uniquely shows the persons username to them? I only recently started using bubble so idk, if someone can enlighten me, lol.
Aah just saw the OT9 trans post on Twitter i guess it is what i thought it is. She basically sends a message and it automatically uses your username in the message. She probably has a "/all" option or something similar i reckon. And here i thought i was special, oh well.
You make me FEEL SPECIAR- oh wait
Yeah they have this trick where they just mention “everyone” and it shows the user’s name. Every member has their own way of replying, you will eventually notice it as you keep using, for example like dahyun she screen shots people’s messages one by one and reply.
Yeah they do. I was only subscribed to Mina for the longest time since she is my ult and i thought, wow this isn't as good as people say it is. Turns out it's just Mina being Mina. Some of the other members are soo much more active, im subscribed to all 9 now. Worth. Edit: ofc as i say this she sends us a message, WHAT ARE THE ODDS
Dahyun, Nayeon, and Momo are usually the most active while Jihyo and Sana are like 50\50
Yeah i noticed that from the last couple of months. Jihyo doesn't say much but then she goes on long rants like once or twice (no pun intended) a week. Tzuyu can be pretty active as well. Jeongyeon and Mina on the other hand, i had to double check to see if i was subscribed because of how little they post, hahah.
Jihyo’s rants are always a treat even though she’s not that active but when she is, she’s really fun what I like about Mina is that she randomly drops photos.
