Hey guys!
I thought it would be nice to create a thread where people could discuss tatinof things.
In particular, it's to make meetup plans if you don’t have anyone to go with/want more people to go with!
It could also be used for spoilers/reviews after the shows, if you want. Every show may provide a slightly different experience for everyone. I feel like the main thread may also discuss tatinof show spoilers in between discussing D&P’s uploads/liveshows/meet and greets during the tour, but it’s up to you where you want to post spoilers!
Just a note: if you plan to meet up with people, please do it the safe way. Perhaps you can skype each other first, meet in an open crowded place before tatinof, etc. Y’know, all that jazz.
So if you feel comfortable doing so and would like some extra company, please post away
PS: If you're leaving a spoiler/long review, don't forget to use the spoiler button! Please and thanks

This is a great idea! If they do a European tour I'd love to find people to go to a show with, but until then I'll just lurk here for the spoilers and reviews

This old af red-headed Amazon is attending both Chicago shows with my 6th grader, as well as the Milwaukee VIP. Lord help me, I'm gonna need some adult beverages or something to cope with the en mass surges of teenage estrogen ... based on prior experiences, I'll also want to gobble handfuls of birth control pills so as to not further perpetuate this kind of behavior. Just kidding. Well,totally not kidding about wanting a nice Pinot Noir to mentally fortify myself

I am going to two shows, one in Costa Mesa with my fiancée and the Hollywood show with my best friend. My fiancée keeps telling me how she's going to troll and say really loudly "You promised me this was a Jack and Dean show!" She doesn't even watch Jack and Dean or even like them.

Yes! I'm curious about the differences between US and UK tours. And if anyone who went to the UK tour wants to refresh our memories about the breakdown of the performance, please do so!sweetmm wrote:emma it seems made a few changes for the US TATINOF. I'll be looking forward to your Big Apple review
Spoilers about the UK tour performance:
I had a GG thread meetup for the UK tour. And ahem will be going to New York (ahem, and Boston) with people I met on GG who are now really good friends of mine lol. Of course, meet up safely etc I'm pretty sure we all got drunk the first time we met up haha oops so we are not good role models. Don't do that!
Looking forward to an excuse to take a quick break in Europe after the US tour also.

re: spoilers: is there anything? I know that a lot of people are spoiler-phobic around here, but boy do I love my spoilers - I'll absolutely see the show if they come anywhere near me either way, but I tend to have far better experiences when I'm ready for stuff. (short story: autistic spectrum -> easily overwhelmed -> brain tends to shut down.)
I've googled for them before & found a few shorter things on sites that shan't-be-named, but anything from videos to just your basic A-Z rundown would be amazing for me.

Okay, I managed to save my reviews of the show from GG so I'll post them here. That way you'll get an idea of the show layout. There are spoilers so only read on if you want to know the set up.

Oh and also, I'll put the things I took with me for the audience participation. I know they said they aren't accepting gifts at the m&g because of their tour bus but if you're creative definitely do something because it's nice to have it shown on stage.
Ah I was wondering when someone would start this thread.
I'm going to the Detroit show, so I'm not sure I'm going to find anyone BUT would love to meet up with someone from here. I am 26 and going alone so if any older fans (older meaning like 21+) want to meet up beforehand, let me know

I have a question for those of you who had vip tickets, what was the m&g like? bc i've heard meeting famous people is always like "hi how are you, hug them, take the selfie, thanks for coming bye"
[offtopic]reading this thread makes me so sad i'm never going to see the show live [/offtopic]

I'm super excited for it, I'm going to the May 17th date in Charlotte with Kinz and another friend. I didn't get VIP tickets, but I did get some tickets on the balcony area at the very front part where the railing is and I think I'll get a really good view.

Anyone going to either of the Toronto shows? I'm still debating about going because I know I'll be having cringe attacks @_@
I really wasn't planning on it originally but the closer it gets to the dates, the more tempted I am to maybe go.

I had VIP at the Leeds show in the UK. It's ok, it's of course enjoyable to have a few minutes to say hi and whatever else. In terms of the conversation, worth bearing in mind they're both full of nervous energy for the show so it is a little bit of "wow, your hair is nice" or "love your shirt!" (which is good training lol they generally pick something unique and special about everyone and compliment you on it to get conversation going) and some girls were happy just to hug them, have a picture, tell them they love them and move on. So bear in mind you might not get too much of a personal experience, they meet a lot of people and will not remember you (probably, unless you've been to many VIP's or are Anahita).fancy_nancy wrote:I have a question for those of you who had vip tickets, what was the m&g like? bc i've heard meeting famous people is always like "hi how are you, hug them, take the selfie, thanks for coming bye"

At my VIP, I started out saying "well, I just wanted to say that as a viewer a bit older than you, I was fully expecting to cringe at your book but it was actually really well done and enjoyable, you obviously worked hard" and lol they seemed to really appreciate a slightly different conversation and I chatted to them both for a good few minutes about my thoughts on the book. It was nice. Phil will engage with you more but Dan gets a bit shy when you engage them in conversation imo and he generally talks a bit but faffs with the things to be signed and snatches your phone out of your hand so he can take the selfie in the pose which is most flattering to him hahah (I say this with love, I'm the same with selfies!) - they're both adorable and so sweet, so kind, very genuine. But just don't expect anything earth shattering, I think if you go in not expecting much then you won't be nervous and things will be more relaxed. I felt pretty relaxed and I felt they, Phil especially, relaxed when they saw I wasn't shaking and freaking out because that freaks them out too.
Would I do it again? Not sure. Maybe once more if I had something I wanted to say to them. But it's worth doing once just for one of Phil's hugs tbh. I'm not a big hugger and was fully expecting to just wander up and talk, since I'm a bit older than them, but no Phil reached out for me and I caved. And I wasn't sure how to approach Dan but he lunged at me first so lol. Actually quite a nice Dan hug, if you're a bit taller (I'm 5'6" or so) then you're more likely to get a cuddly Dan hug and I liked it muchley. I was all, oh go on then. Lovely hugs. Phil is very squishy and rocks you a bit, I was happy to pay for just that tbh lol because beforehand I'd had a terrible 10 months or so and a hug or two was most welcome.

If they have tickets then you must go, honestly, you'll really regret not going if they are coming close by and you don't buy a ticket.blueapple_x wrote:Anyone going to either of the Toronto shows? I'm still debating about going because I know I'll be having cringe attacks @_@

When the bour was first announced I will gladly admit I was one of the people who was like "WHAT ON EARTH IS THIS, WHAT ARE THEY DOING" and then I ended up seeing the show 5 times in the UK and I'm travelling to NYC to see it. It's not that cringe at all, it's actually a very well put together show

Oh it's not the show I'm worried about cringing over, it's the screaming crowd and the fact that I'll probably be one of the older ones there.missemma wrote:If they have tickets then you must go, honestly, you'll really regret not going if they are coming close by and you don't buy a ticket.blueapple_x wrote:Anyone going to either of the Toronto shows?

But I know what you mean! I know I'll regret it if I don't go. Did you go by yourself to some of the UK shows? If so, how was that experience for you???

Oh, I was one of the older ones there (as in a fan, not a parent) and I went by myself to one of them. I was really worried about going on my own, as I never do anything alone (I always prefer the company of others). But it was fine and I was sitting next to a girl who was also an older fan (she was 25) and on her own. Tbh, once the show starts then it doesn't matter if you're by yourself as you don't get a chance to talk to anyone. After I had been once, I knew roughly what time they were going to be on and stayed in the bar until then, it was a good way to avoid the screams when they played the very cringey playlist before the show started.blueapple_x wrote: Oh it's not the show I'm worried about cringing over, it's the screaming crowd and the fact that I'll probably be one of the older ones there.

I am actually really interested to see how the fans will react in New York compared to the UK. Me, Human & Mazza are all going together, but unfortunately we aren't sitting together as the ticket release was an actual farce (& I know Dan said over and over it went to fans, but getting the tickets was sooooo hard, we were very lucky in the end that the lovely Dizzy helped us out, otherwise we wouldn't even be going).

Ah I see! Approximately how long is the wait time until the show starts (from the time they tell you to arrive at the venue to the time the show actually begins)? I know they have a song playlist but do they actually play every song on that list before it starts? Also, do ushers direct you to your seats or do they just open the doors and let people find their own way and trust them enough to go to the right seats?missemma wrote:Oh, I was one of the older ones there (as in a fan, not a parent) and I went by myself to one of them.

Hmm I can't remember exactly how long the wait was, maybe about 45 minutes from doors opening! The times I went I never went for exactly as the doors opened as the queue to get in was long and that takes up vital pub time
The playlist was the same but finished at different times for different venues, depends if there was a curfew or if the show time was a bit later/earlier.
In the UK they don't show you to your seats, you have a seat number and it's pretty easy to find. I dunno how it'll be in America/Canada though, sorry
Really hope you decide to go!

People always think I'm a teenager anyway so I'd probably blend in. But I'm still tempted to wear a disguise.

Fire away with the questions. I'd rather answer them and you buy a ticket and not miss out
Whatever you do, just don't draw cat whiskers on your face as a disguise as everyone will be doing that!
if you do buy a ticket I'm fully expecting a review of the show after
