BTS to have 4 LA offline concerts after two years, ARMY feels like 'a fever dream'

BTS to perform in front of a live audience after two years for 'Permission To Dance On Stage' concert

Looks like the BTS online concert is expanding. On September 28, the global K-pop group announced that their first 2021 online concert ‘Permission To Dance On Stage’ would also have an offline segment. That means that along with the virtual concert on October 24, the seven-group member will be flying to Los Angeles where they will be performing in front of a live audience. It will be held during ARMY’s thanksgiving break and the turnout is expected to be huge.

This will be BTS’ first offline concert in more than two years. Their last world tour had been in 2018-2019 for ‘Love Yourself’. After that, they were set to have a ‘Map of the Soul’ tour which fans were excited about. Unfortunately, it was officially canceled last month. But to make up for broken hearts, BTS will be performing at LA’s SoFi Stadium on November 27, 28, December 1 and 2. With a total of 4 offline concerts, ARMY is thrilled.

One of the perks of being an artist means holding tours for one’s albums where the fans can see their favorite tracks being performed live. The ‘Map of the Soul’ series has some of the most iconic and fierce tracks that are meant to be performed live in front of a huge audience. And with BTS’ latest album having only two tracks, fans hope that the boy group will be performing songs from the ‘Butter’ CD, as well as the ‘Map of the Soul’ albums.

Additionally, Ticketmaster, the ticket purchasing platform that has partnered up with BTS has announced that some fans will be getting some perks. While the ‘MOTS’ tour tickets were to be refunded, those who have bought the VIP tickets will be getting a unique code. With this unique code, fans can get access to the pre-sale on October 5. As for those who bought the general tickets, they will be getting access to the pre-sale from October 6.

'A fever dream'

Excited ARMY has been trending all kinds of phrases like ‘4 Concerts’, #PTD_ON_STAGE_LA, thanksgiving, Ticketmaster, Inglewood where the stadium is situated and even ‘Squid Game’ as fans joke that they would participate in the deathly game to buy a ticket. One ARMY joked, “Ticketmaster realising they have to deal with armys again now that bts are having a concert.” Another was excited about the huge concert, “SoFi Stadium, a stadium and entertainment complex in Inglewood, California, United States with 70K up to 100K capacity omg.”

One made a meme, “Me in squid game playing red light green light bcs i wanted bts concert tickets.” “It’s during thanksgiving weekend I’m going to beg my mom with all my heart,” said one fan. Those who can’t attend made reaction memes like, “You know what does BTS concert means for broke armys???? 140p Livestreams with weird angles and loudest screams.” Some were already wondering about the setlist, “IMAGINE IF WE GET ON,MY TIME,BLACK SWAN AND FILTER LIVE!!!!!!PLUS IF WE GET LOUDER THAN BOMBS LIVE!!!OK I AM FREAKING OUT!!!!!!!!” “4 CONCERTS ??
