Dan & Phil Part 60: Lady Door Tour

[animad]

If anyone lives in a quieter area and are panicking about tickets two shows nearest me still have 40+ tickets left at both and they went on sale over 4 hours ago, both venues have a capacity of less than 2000 each

The Toronto theatre just changed their policy from "everyone under 14 needs to be accompanied by an adult" to this:

Which is really cool. It won't affect me because I want to go with my kids but it should mean that there are a few extra tickets available.
(edit: can't get the image to embed but they're saying there will be free lobby-only tickets available for parents of 11 & 12 year olds)

See that's a theatre getting it.

Just FYI, I had a look at the London site for tickets (3,632) and there are 15 individually dotted around ones. Man I knew they were popular but wow.
Then again apparently they did the Palladium four times (2,286) last time.

This definitely feels like the calm between storms before US tickets start going on sale.

"Calm", she says, as if we're not all screaming internally.

Seriously. I had an appointment this morning where I was asked to rate my current anxiety level and I didn’t know how to respond. I’m super keyed up, but it’s a whole lot more positive than my usual anxiety At the end I was told to “go get those tickets” and I guess I beamed because she said smiling looked good on me.

I did a thorough test drive of my venue’s ticket purchasing process and I’m feel pretty confident.

DeadlyNova I would open a tab in your browser for both venues.

One hour to go and it's really hard to concentrate on work. I keep checking to make sure I'm still signed into Ticketmaster.

I have this mental picture of Phil looking at all the tweets telling him they got tickets, nodding his head along, mentally putting another brick down as he silently thanks us all for contributing to their forever home.

Good luck to all U.S. people!!!

I had a moment of hesitation when they said the show might not be appropriate for 9 year olds, but honestly the first videos my son and I watched together were baking, and his favorite series is Golf, so the damage is already done. All the innuendos go right over his head and the “don’t repeat anything that comes out of Dan Howell’s mouth” rule has worked well so far. There may come a day that he understands all of their references and is horrified that we watched them together, but today is not that day.

This is so belated but I just reread the last few pages to hype myself up for buying my own tickets here in a few hours.
This is such a cute situation, my heart can't take it. Just. Ow, my heart! The innocence I imagine D&P implementing a similar rule of their own one day. (Someone write that domestic family fic for me, pls) :number1:

eta: I'm frickin nervous you guys omg. This is my karma for being bitter and saying tours "aren't my thing". Does anyone know what the largest venue has been so far that's sold out?

Hahaha. I love this.

Miracles can happen guys. I didn't think I was gonna get the tickets for awhile and then when I did, like forty five minutes after tickets had started selling, I found out the site had crashed for an hour so I was pretty much bang on time for getting good seats Sososo excited!

Was that for Brighton? Their website was useless haha, it kept crashing and the link to buy tickets didn't appear until about 45 minutes after they officially went on sale!

Good luck to everyone who is left to buy tickets!

Yeah, that's what I've been doing, although it's still super stressful trying to decide which one to try first!

I'll probably try the one that looks like it has less buttons for me to click to try to get VIP. We'll see how it goes.

Good luck to everyone! I am terrified!

[rebeccarayne]

First post here but I've stalked y'all for ages so here we go...

I was in a phone meeting at work and totally missed 4pm, I got back in the office and it was 5!!! But lucky me I snagged a VIP for Brighton!!! I wasn't going to, but it was there, so... I just held my breath and paid haha. Considering getting a cheaper ticket for the matinee too.... Not sure how that would work if I have to be there so early for VIP?

[eel]

Good luck to anyone buying tickets. I won't be able to attend, but I look forward to hearing about everything.

If you end up with a really shitty seat here is a tip. I was in the last row at TATINOF. I was able to hear the show very well, but it was hard to see deppy. However I brought binoculars and could see them pretty well with them.

Hope everyone gets their tickets.

Yay congrats! I’m also going to Brighton vip and I’m super nervous about being there alone so hopefully we can be buddies.

[LadyLackless]

I got row J (10) centre in London!!! I’m excited and nervous about explaining to my husband.... good luck to those in US for the ticket scramble

I saw your post in the London thread, I'm glad you decided to get a ticket!

Thank you!! I took the plunge, I’ve got 6 months to make tour buddies Did you get everything you wanted in the end?

Yes! I wanted to go to London and Brighton and I’ve got tickets for both (and VIP for Brighton) so I’m a happy bunny. I’ll def be your tour buddy I’m super nervous about going alone I’ve never gone to anything alone before!!

[sarmstr2]

OMG - just got row F - the most expensive non-VIP for Clearwater. Child did not want VIP because she didn't want to hang out with "the fans" LOL. The preshow dinner I just had to pay for better be good.

[alittledizzy]

Eastern timezone Americans, are you guys still trying? Who got through?

[nigel ratburn]

I got tickets! The ticketmaster website wouldn't display them for a minute for me, so I was nervous, but I have a seat that's way off to the right but pretty close-up (Section 2, Row L if anyone else is going to Greensboro, which I think is the third row back excepting the VIP section, which I didn't even get to see tickets for, lol)

I'm so excited!

[rizzo]

Providence VIP: achieved.

[ahoymultiships]

I got VIP for Detroit (4th row whoop whoop !)

Surprisingly got it on my phone than my browser. (For people on Central and West Coast peeps: the timer on the Ticketmaster app has less time compared to the browser. So, I caught the ticket before the browser even refreshed.

[Kimship]

OMG, Ticketmaster, why are you like this? It was about $22 of fees and such added onto the ticket. It's ridiculous.

But, I have a seat! I'm just crying over my bank balance.

[BSV]

Yay for everyone getting tickets! My son obviously had a school trip today and finished later than normal (3.45pm) so i was panicking about getting tickets for Cardiff (haven't heard anyone else talk about that show yet?) and so we popped into the nearest place (as it was tipping down) just so happened to be a pub and waited for 4pm (yeah i know pub at 4pm ah well priorities! ) got some crappy cheap tickets right at the back on the highest balcony (£17.50 i think each), i just couldnt justify £45 or £60 something each for me and son £35 is a luxury spend! Turns out my sister got tickets for her and her girlfriend in the row in front haha so all excited!

[bluntedclaws]

Aahhhh, I can breathe again. Two Toronto tickets in the 8th row, centre section. **Loooooong exhale**

[Lyan]

Oh my god I'm so happy I bought to tickets to the Stockholm show!!!!!! I thought I'd never see them in real life (Tatinof was just impossible with the european venues they had) and I'm kind of freaking out, I'm so so happy.................. it's not even VIP tickets, just the really cheap ones, but we'll be in the same room and somehow that feels like enough. And I'll get to see Sweden! I've never been there .

I really wanted them to come to Spain but I guess it was not meant to be... Tho I'm really glad for all of you who'll be able to go see them in your own country!!

I'm so hyped and June is so many months away rip

[loonyradish]

It just occured to me that I'm actually gonna see them live, like, maybe 20 meters away from me. Without a screen in between. They are real people.
Somehow this is really freaking me out rn
I saw Starkid (does anyone here know them?) at a convention a few months ago, and whenever they walked past me I got this feeling of "nah, this is not happening. this can't be them. we don't exist in the same universe".
I guess that's exactly what's gonna happen in June
Also I'm actually not sad not to have a M&G, I would feel super awkward after all the fanfiction I've read..

i saw starkid live years ago (i went to spacetour, god, that was so long ago) and i had the exact same feeling! that was the last time i was that close to someone i was a really big fan of, so i don't know how i'm going to react this time around, but i'm excited to see what they have in store for us

Ahh that's awesome! Saw some snippets of the show online, wish I could have been there! (this year's show was pretty good too, tho )


Back to all the excitement around the ladydoordnp tour, I'm happy that (as it seems) everyone managed to get themself and their family/friends some tickets! Lots of positive vibes here after all the stress, makes me even more excited for everything
