Photography by Eva Lines have gathered outside the Melkweg in Amsterdam on 24th of November.
Fans have been lining up for quite a few hours, luckily the weather wasn’t that bad and on top of that the Melkweg is located in the city center of Amsterdam.
It’s packed!
From the ground floor to the upper rank of the venue, fans are even on the stairs as the concert is about to start. No barricade had been placed as fans were a bit nervous for pushing, in the end concert etiquettes of the crowd were a solid 10/10. There were some moments but even when the light turned off and the video on the screen started to play. The only thing that happened was the screams of excitement cheering on the group.

KARD took to the stage kicking off with “Tell My Momma” following up with “Ring The Alarm”.
The moments where the bands speak to their fans will always be my personal favourite moments, this time was no different. As BM reads out a sign “Gay for KARD” which lightens up the mood and as the crowd cheers. Once again Studio PAV had organised for there to be a Dutch speaking translator as not every member of the group speaks English. Big props for that.
Talking about how much of a party city Amsterdam is, they ask the fans to scream.
In the midst of the scream “Hola Hola” starts.
“Oh Nana”, “Whip!” and “Waste of Time” all get performed and it’s very obvious that KARD themselves are excited to be here. Their performance radiates into the crowd together with their talkative moments, it really is a special night for many of their fans.
One key moment that set the whole vibe for the concert was when a fan handed a drink to BM. It turned into a college party “BM GOT A DRINK!” Somin cheered as J.Seph and Jiwoo got the fans to scream “Drink it!”, “Shotje”. Fair to say the drink was gone in seconds. Jiwoo was having the biggest laughs seeing how fast that drink disappeared.
Do keep in mind “18+ Drink bewust”!
“Bomb Bomb”, BM performs several of his solo songs whilst the rest of the group gets a well deserved break. After a quick outfit change all of them returned together once more, fans had prepared many gifts for the group from shirts to silly sunglasses.
Nearing the end of the show they were taking phones from fans to take selfies and videos, Somin even got a phone from someone all the way on the stairs. Taking her time to capture a cute video before getting the phone back.
To finish off the evening J.Seph and BM sprayed so many water bottles into the first few rows that the stage got quite slippery. So slippery in fact that once BM tossed another bottle of water he fell down with his bum on the stage. The crowd unapologetically laughed together with the rest of KARD whilst all worried at the same time, but the man was quickly back on his feet.
Thank you KARD for an eventful night filled with laughter and thank you Studio Pav. for having us.
