I loved it, I paid the regular 35$ ticket and still had a really good spot by coming 1-2hrs earlier. So if you ever think of going to one of his general admission concert, come 1 or 2 hours earlier and you’re guaranteed to have a great spot like in the first rows.
Nothing bad to say! It was amazing. Booze a bit expensive but its always like that in events and shows.
It was a really hype young crowd that was there for Freddie, they all know the lyrics and where singing with him the whole time. The thing is that Freddie cant rap 1/2 of his lyrics, always letting the back tracks with his voice a 100% level rap for him. I mean this guy have decent song, a really nice fanbase, he could just stop slacking and rap his god damn song fully!
