Reader’s Question:
I’m going to my first Aqours finale live concert this June, and I’m wondering if I can buy Love Live glow sticks at the venue.
Exciting Times at My First Concert!
You know that feeling when you’re about to dive into something completely new? That’s exactly how I felt when
I was gearing up for my first Aqours finale live concert. The thrill of being surrounded by fellow fans, the anticipation of the performances, and the excitement of waving those glow sticks—it was exhilarating! When I read about the glow sticks available at the venue, I had a moment of sheer panic. I mean, what if I couldn’t find the official Love Live glow sticks? That would be a total disaster! So, I decided to share my thoughts with some seasoned concert-goers online. One user mentioned that the official Love Live glow sticks, or “ラブライブレード,” would be available at the merchandise booth, which was a huge relief. But just to be safe, they also suggested getting them during the pre-sale to avoid the dreaded “sold out” sign. Honestly, I could just picture myself arriving at the booth, all excited, and then… nothing but empty shelves staring back at me. The user also mentioned that as long as you stick within the regulations, you could use other light sticks too. That’s a good tip! I remember the time I went to a different concert and brought a glow stick that was way too big. I was waving it around, feeling like a rock star, but it was so distracting! I ended up bumping into someone, and we both laughed it off, but I learned my lesson about being a bit more considerate. And then there’s the whole issue of chemical lights, or UO sticks, which I found out they don’t sell at the concert. Thank goodness for online shopping! I still chuckle at the time I ordered a bunch of them thinking I’d throw a mini rave in my living room—my toddler was not impressed! As I reflect on these moments, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and nostalgia. Concerts have a way of bringing people together, and I’m eager to create new memories this June. Plus, indulging in snacks while meeting fellow fans is always a highlight—just try to resist the nachos before the concert starts; the cheese sauce is a total mess waiting to happen! What about you? Have you ever been to a concert where you learned something unexpected or had a funny moment? I’d love to hear your stories or any tips you might have for a first-timer like me! Let’s share the love and excitement!
