SM Arena

[jazzmine22]

Turatko,

Kung hindi ako namalikmata, may nakita akong pinagbibili na mga light beers sa loob mismo, hindi ko lang sure kung available as of now, basta nakalagay na sa menu nila, hindi naman kasi kami nag purchase.

Naguluhan ako, kasi nakalagay sa menu nila, pero yung isa, sabi hindi daw available.

Wait natin yung ibang nakapunta na.

[jazzmine22]

i fully agree with you. and there should be clear announcements on what things can't be brought inside, other than the usual stuff like food, water, and DSLR cameras, since there's no 100% assurance you can get them back after the event...

to those planning to watch the uaap/ncaa events, leave your expensive/branded perfumes at home.

True, dapat meron silang signage doon kung ano ang mga bawal, hindi yung kada may papasok, ang nagsasabi lang yung security guards LOL.

next time, if it is raining on the day i plan to go there, i might just bring my old, half-functioning umbrella that i can afford to lose...

Tama, buti nga yung akin hindi nawala eh world youth day umbrella pa naman yun, haha..

So, no food, drinks, perfume (what else?). Pero kung may bawal naman dalhin sa loob di ba pwede naman lagay nalang sa car?

Thanks for the heads up guys and gals! I will be there this Sunday to see my boys! Can't wait!

*di pwede dslr pero pwede naman siguro ang digicam, right??

Omaygawd... pupunta ka ba sa concert ng Backstreetboys on sunday?

Pupunta sana ako, kasi I love Nick Carter to death and beyond, kaso lang wala akong makakasama, walang ibang BSB fan...

Omaygawd girl.. ihalik mo ako kay Nick Carter, ng torrid please...


Sabi nga nung security, "iwanan ninyo na sa car ninyo ang payong", sumagot naman ang atribida kong kapatid "hello, kaya nga may dalang payong, kasi baka mabasa kami ng ulan pagpunta sa car!".



and digicam is okay..

[neworld]

aalisin yung blue na design ng sm la salle diba?
sa wakas may connection na rin ang velasco(+ elevator)!

Thanks for the info! Yes, I will be there this Sunday to see BSB as well... No choice yun eh! Actually, I'm little too old for BSB. I'm there to see NKOTB. Kapag nagdilang angel ka...hahalikan ko si Nick Carter para sayo.

Sorry ha! Iniisip ko kasi covered parking.

We're thinking of leaving mga 3pm to avoid traffic tapos if we arrive early we can stroll around Mall of Asia. Grabe! I'm super excited. I'll definitely be posting pix here at PEX cause we got very very very very very good seats.

[jazzmine22]

^ super inggit mode ako sayo girl, kung alam mo lang

Nakawayan lang kasi ako dati ni Nick, kaya please please, kiss him for me, with tongue ha..

Pa share naman please ng pictures sa concert Sab, (nakiki sabrina na ako, lol) sige na please?

Ganyan din ginawa namin, tambay muna sa MOA, tutal reserved seats, nagpunta kami doon exactly 8pm, pero 9pm na nagstart yung concert ni Lady Gaga, kaya baka sa sunday, meron ding front act muna.

Yung iba nga, mag 9pm na nagsidatingan, ayaw nung front act LOL.

[s_lo75]

No problem!

Meron na nga akong konting palpitation...akala ko Friday na ngayon....Thursday pa pala!

Meron ngang meet&greet contest sa mga nakabili na ng tickets kaso nakakahiya yung challenge para sa age ko...post a video lip syching any song from NKOTB or BSB. If I was still 10-15 yrs younger I'd probably do it...pero ngayon nakakawalang credibility na...

and not all people who go to the concerts/events arrived there by car. my umbrella was just 6 months old, and was still in very good condition, that's why i really felt bad i wasn't able to get it back. what was really irritating was it wasn't even in the so-called "house rules" that ovation productions kept posting on their FB page hours before the concert.

Gusto ko rin salihan yun and I'm pretty much game --- but yeah, if I were 10 to 15 years younger I'd do it hahaha.

Re: cameras. My friend daw managed to get his 550D inside during the Lady Gaga concert, pero ayaw ko i-risk. Sabi naman sa house rules that was posted on the Lady Gaga FB, no DSLR/Professional cameras, Micro 4/3, and cameras with interchangeable lenses. I also asked via the Arena's twitter and they recommended leaving professional cameras behind. I guess kahit entry level DSLR with kit lens is considered pro-cameras.

It would be nice if SM would post these rules on their site. They should also offer the options of lockers that guests can rent out. Sa Hong Kong nung nanood kami ng L'arc en Ciel, they had that option so even though I brought along my camera, pwede ko siya iiwan & alam ko na safe siya.

[jazzmine22]

Sab, mamaya na, sana mahalikan mo si Nick Carter

oo nga, kung 18 years old pa lang din ako ngayon, isa ako sa contestant diyan, lol.




Avid, dapat nga yun, binayaran nila yung mga nawawalang gamit, speaking of pagkuha ng payong, meron doon gay na kumukuha ng payong niya:

Gay: Ano ba yan nga payong ko, bakla ka!

Security Guard: (akmang sasagot)

Gay: Oh eh bakit, bakla ako, bakla ako, problema mo?


tawa kami ng tawa



Lunedi, kami nga, hinarang nung isang guard, bawal daw camera namin, sabi ko, "huwaat, hindi naman to DSLR", buti na lang, sumingit yung kasama niya, sabi dslr lang daw ang hindi pwede.

Oh diba, pati sa house rules nila nagkakalituhan

[Uinen]

Ganda dito parang mall lang ang corridors. I had fun watching lady gaga's concert here. Concert na ng The Fray on June 21, 2012, makakabalik ako dito ulit.

Hi Jazzy!

I had a blast last night...sobrang hangover!! Though I did not get to kiss Nick, I was able to kiss AJ McLean kahit di ko type...hahaha!! Everything happened so fast kasi eh...I had A LOT of memorable experiences that I'd rather not say kasi sakin lang nangyari...so kapag sinabi malalaman mo na yung true identity ko...

Here's something for you!



Observation of SM Arena...parang much smaller than Araneta pero much decent yung environment...Siguro I'd prefer Araneta if it was not located in Cubao.

[avid]

my niece told me the guards hardly checked her bag last night. so i am assuming security was just extra tight during LG's concert. but i still don't want to risk losing something when i go back there...

I know, I was very surprised too. They just asked me to open my bag...and voila! that was it. I was hesitant to bring my whole bottle of cologne but I opted to bring a very small atomizer that I can put in my pocket. I guess their policy were based on the crowd attending.

[avid]

yeah, they were probably scared some anti-Lady Gaga people would watch and hurl stuff inside the arena...

omaygawd ipagpapalit ko talaga ang hubby ko kay Nick Carter

at ang talagang nahalikan mo eh si Aj? ewww...

Thank you Sab ha, sinama ko na siya sa files ko, i hope you don't mind, meron ka pa diyan? Wait ko sa thread ng BSB? LOL and kisses Sab, thanks




So sa concert lang pala ni Gaga naghigpit, akala ko pa naman ganun talaga ang systema nila, which I think, maganda, kasi safer for the concert goers diba?

[john_pro]

mukhang malaki lang ang araneta kasi oval ang shape. seating capacity lang dehado na. araneta has to undergo major renovation.

Jazzy,

Yeah, bumaba siya, nasa harapan ko, biglang lapit nung cheek niya sa face ko eh di kiss yung labas. Pero before that, something happened to me this time naman with my boys. Pero syempre di ka maeexcite kasi mukhang di mo sila panahon.

Anyways, nahihirapan ako mag search ng link dito ng BSB thread. Di na ata gumagana yung search engine.

[jazzmine22]

^ Sab, si Nick Carter lang kasi ang nakikita ko, mula noon, hanggang ngayon

Talaga yang si AJ, namimilit may kumiss sa kanya, LOL.

Aba, at mukhang naka kiss ka din sa boys mo ah, sana hindi mo na pinakawalan hahaha.

eto nga pala ang thread ng BSB:

Thanks Sab!



Nga pala, may nadagdag na bang mga kainan sa SM Arena? pagpunta kasi namin doon, ang konti lang ng bilihan, nung mag isa nga akong lumabas, kasi start na nung show, para akong nasa ghost town .

We were there earlier mga 3pm palang ata andun na kami (which was a wrong move) nag park kami dun sa outside parking in between SMX and MOA. We hung out at MOA then we ate at KFC (sorry gibradi ). Mga 5pm we walked to the Arena already...nakaka-irita lang kasi yung akala namin entrance ng SVIP sa Arena ay yun na, pero hindi, we had to walk a few meters pa ulit (as in inikot namin halos yung Arena) para lang sa right entrance. There was a Starbucks na sobrang punong-puno ng mga concert goers (95% girls ) I was able to reserve some seats for my sister and friends pero unlucky cause they were able to see Jordan Knight of NKOTB order coffee at Starbucks at the back. Meron palang tagusan malapit sa dressing room yung Starbucks. Wala naman nagkagulo pero meron kang maririnig na shrieks dun sa line na parang mga naipit!!

We stayed there up to 6:30pm. When we got to the entrance gate...sobrang bilis kasi hindi nga masyadong strict yung bag inspection. As in pwede kang makalusot ng food even if you weren't allowed to bring some. Dun sa loob food kiosk (movie house kiosk) lang nakita ko...wala akong nakita na ibang food establishment. Pero di ko lang alam baka sa taas meron na. Sa baba lang kasi kami. Hope it helps!
