So like, have any of y’all ever hit up a concert early and accidentally caught a soundcheck surprise? :guitar: The time I saw Panic! at the Disco do a mini set during soundcheck was mind-blowing. Let’s talk!

OMG yes! I once showed up early to an Ariana Grande concert, and she did a full acoustic version of ‘One Last Time’. It was like a mini private show before the actual concert! :heart_eyes:

Not gonna lie, I live for those. Saw 21 Pilots do a casual soundcheck jam and it was :fire::fire:

Pro tip: Always aim to be near the venue 2-3 hours early. You never know what you’ll catch! It’s like a secret bonus for the real ones. :raising_hands:

Lmao I thought I was just being a nerd for showing up early. Turns out I’m just a soundcheck enthusiast!

Low-key some of my favorite concert moments come from soundchecks. I saw Lorde warming up and she sang an unreleased track. :sparkles:

Came for Taylor, stayed for the soundcheck. Got to hear a stripped-down version of ‘All Too Well’. :sob::sparkling_heart:

Is it just me, or do soundcheck surprises feel more intimate? Like, the artists are just being themselves without the full crowd pressure.

Imagine: you’re early, sipping overpriced coffee, and suddenly your fave band is doing a soundcheck cover of a TikTok song. Perfect combo or what? :pinched_fingers:

Btw, shoutout to artists who acknowledge early birds during soundchecks. It’s a dope way to connect with fans beyond just the main show.

Caught The 1975 at soundcheck and they did a lo-fi version of ‘Somebody Else’. Felt like I was in a coffee shop gig but with 10k people. :joy:

What if soundcheck surprises were a legit part of the concert ticket? Like you pay extra for a guaranteed low-key pre-show.

I low-key wonder if artists plan these soundcheck surprises or if they’re just vibing with the moment.

One time, I accidentally snuck into a soundcheck thinking it was the entrance line. Awkward but worth it!

Does anyone else get emotional during soundcheck surprises? It’s like seeing raw talent at its purest.

Not gonna lie, I’m here for the memes but now I’m convinced I need to start showing up early to concerts. :joy:
