@Ryan26razornail50 No follow required. Just make sure when you checkin to follow all the instructions. You must checkin to the event and not just the venue. If you do not checkin to the event you will not get the badge. I just tested it again on a test acct that is not following anyone and got the badge. On the 4sqr mobile site there is a spot where you can choose to checkin to an event. There is a drop down menu titled "Event" just select the current concert event in that box then checkin.
@Ryan26razornail50 make sure you're checking into the event. When you're checking in via the mobile site, there's a spot where you can also choose to share on Facebook or twitter or shout, where you can also choose to check-in to an event. It's a drop down menu titled "Event" with the default selection "None."
If you read through the posts in this discussions, you'd clearly see that I posted EXACTLY how to do that above. Please go back and read that post, and if you are still having issues let me know.
Also, the very first post in this discussions tells you how to do it from the mobile site.
@pinto If you follow the unlock instructions you will get the badge. Step #2 of the unlock instructions states "There must be a concert event going on". Check the comments above I have a list of all the nights they have a concert event going on.
Tomorrow night an event is showing at the garden!! Check the event drop down menu and get the badge I sign in at 8pm when the even starts. Make it epic swarm!
Was trying to check in earlier (8.00++pm) to Jay-Z and Kanye West's concert at MSG but couldn't get the badge until 9.00pm. Which leads me to this question : Do we have to wait till the concert begins to the get the badge :-) ?
JR1 i checked into MSG and then i checked into the Jay Z Kanye West concert and didn't get the badge, i even waited 30 min after the concert started and checked into the actual concert and no luck.
I give up I must be blind or retarded because i do not see that anywhere. i typed in Furthur :Phil Lesh & Bob Weir, furthur, Phil Lesh & Bob Weir and Nothing comes up at all.And on the mobile site there is no event drop down box to look for or check into events. Anyway you could post a url for it?
The concert is not a venue. Go to the mobile venue link in the unlock instructions above. Click check-in. That will bring you to a page that has a shout option under a check-in button. Under the shout option is a drop down menu that says "event." select the event and then click check-in again. Badge will unlock.
In my event I have basketball game. Choosing that as event gave me historian badge. Well at least I got something. So need to wait for band or artist to play :)
Has anyone verified the unlock time (Eastern Standard Time) for this badge? From the posts above, it sounds like no matter what time the event starts, the back doesn't unlock until about 9:00pm?
