It was certainly a day to remember…
TXT are currently on their 2023 ACT: SWEET MIRAGE World Tour.
The K-Pop boy group performed at the Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., on May 16.
Yet, for some MOAs (TXT’s fandom), the night was far from a dream.
Like most K-Pop fans attending a concert, MOAs were excited to take pictures ahead of the show. Yet, they noticed a huge typo on the venue’s sign. It read, “TOGETHER X TOMORROW” instead of “TOMORROW X TOGETHER,” the group’s official name.
What is this? Walmart TXT? Imagine getting a huge performing artist’s name wrong. I mean we all knew Capital One was crap, but like this bothered me so much. Now I have to spend extra time photoshopping this trash…

That was not all, though. While the sign was fixed in the evening, more instances left a bad taste toward Capital One Arena. From disorganization to unprofessional workers…
(thread) capital one arena sucked tho it was like the staff wasn’t told how big of an event this was and nobody knew how to handle the amount of people and the amount of lines. this pic was the people waiting for vip entry being directed to cross the street and line up there. + https://t.co/4GL0xfzBcG pic.twitter.com/wJtHYSK7EQ

before the police closed the street off and nobody knew what time we would be let into the venue. the email we got said “soundcheck: 4:30” but we weren’t let into the venue until around 4:15 because it started to rain. one livenation staff told us we would be let in at 3 and + pic.twitter.com/xbWwe3xgZX

around telling us immediately that we had to go to our seats because they were starting soon. worried that we’d miss some of soundcheck, emi and i skipped out on getting water which i’m guessing a lot of people did because someone collapsed before soundcheck even started. +

didn’t get a bag at all. emi and i flew in from halfway across the country to see tubatu and while the boys did amazing and i would do it again in a heartbeat, i will never be going to the capital one arena again. the standees of txt weren’t set up and idk +

about other venues, but our soundcheck was three songs. i’ve heard that usually it’s four but i’m just speculating they had to cut it short because of their horrible planning and struggle to stick to the plan we were told.

MOAs reported that they didn’t just open doors later than originally scheduled, but TXT performed one less song at soundcheck, assumed to be due to the venue’s disorganization. Allegedly, a lot of staff were rude too. Some MOAs missed out on receiving their VIP merchandise and even water.
Not to mention there was a no-bag policy for Capital One Arena. So, many MOAs had to struggle with keeping everything they needed in their pockets.
Still, TXT performed an unforgettable show as expected, making everything worthwhile.
