Another concert for the books! This September I was able to see Conan Gray at the Armory in Minneapolis. I was able to go with my mom. She wasn’t a huge Conan Gray fan, but his performance and songs was enough to get a 10/10 rating from her.
It felt like it took ages to get inside the venue. The doors opened around 6pm and we lined up a little after 3pm.
So cool.
As someone who has been to the armory twice, my advice is as follows:
- Line up early (if you want a front row spot)
- Get balcony seats (if you want a decent view without having your personal space violated for a few hours lol)
- Get merch towards the end of the show (merch lines will be slow to nonexistent)
- Know where you parked
- Make sure to check in with your body!
- Conan had to stop in the middle of a song because someone in the crowd needed medical attention
- Make friends in line/at the venue!
- Whether it’s just small talk, gushing about the artist, or passing out cute friendship bracelets.
How have you seen live? Any tips?

Currently we have four strong designs that need to be voted on! I’m secretly rooting for the Sherman graphic (below). I’ve also been working…

the hiatus is over!
I’m back! I graduated and headed straight to Hawaii. Literally. The morning after graduation I was on a plane to see my sister in Oahu. It was sooo much fun and the week went by so fast. Right now I’m diving headfirst into my internship, fulltime. I hope to update you guys on my summer.
