don't they have a show today?
i seen a post on tumblr a couple weeks back showing what days they have shows and what they have off.. it was like a calendar format with the show dates highlighted in red, does anyone know of it?
Thanks @honeybee
Here's an updated version that includes the two additional dates they added (in yellow), and the three TBC dates announced so far (in purple) incase it's useful @ratlad - (*still TBC - Brazil, Mexico, Montreal)
Speaking of nerdy charts lol...I was curious yesterday about the numbers of insta stories they've posted in this first month. So incase anyone else is interested -
Average per day = 4.72 (Dan 2.5, Phil 2.22).
Most in a day = 9 (Dan 5, Phil 6).
Fewest in a day = 1 (Dan 0, Phil 0).
19 May, giving us a beautiful visual representation of them complimenting one another, a professional hug if you like. (yes, i know it's really just Dan obsessing over a bath bomb and Phil having a day off )
24 May, hopefully an indication of a heavy filming day at home.
I don't really have any conclusion to offer on this, was just personally curious to see if they were falling into some kind of pattern, and I also like to challenge my own perceptions of how I think things are which doesn't always match with reality. (Is anyone analysing their stories more in depth? e.g. types of posts, topics of posts, show days vs no show days etc. - could be an interesting analysis by the end of tour...y'know to find out the important things such as what percentage of Phil's stories are about pancakes )
Still no trailer? I agree with whoever mentioned earlier that it's already beginning to feel a little far into the the tour to release a trailer, of course still worthwhile as lots of tickets to sell, but I thought they'd have been keen to push that out as soon as they had the live action (I've been super slow in picking up that Mark also has a video production company, everything makes so much more sense now...and it makes the "making things with the footage" comment only more intriguing).

Jeez seeing it like this really makes me wonder how they're gonna survive, July looks like a nightmare and I'm stressed on their behalf
Ok apparently idb really wants me t@susan2 dammit
Will probably never be over the BONCAS and the beauty of Phil Lester.
If you're having the issue with it wanting you to tag a specific person, just reply without quoting the post you're responding to. It's inconvenient, but it's a glitch that shows up once in a while using the mention function that the extension developers haven't managed to fix yet.

This is pretty random, but I'm hoping you guys can help!
I'm watching the oldest of Phil's liveshows, and I'm finding that I'm often curious about things he refers to that are going on at the time, but that I have no way of knowing more about because it's 2012 and IDB wasn't there having discussions about things yet. Like, Dan just got back from Scotland! Cool, why was Dan in Scotland? They see themselves on cable TV for the first time! Cool, did that ever make it onto YouTube?
I'm wondering if there's something like the Phan Timeline but for... Dan and Phil's careers or public lives in general. A timeline of Dan and Phil relevant events. Is that a thing that exists?
also the chat keeps asking them to sneeze and I'm confused but charmed by our forefans
The only TV thing from 2012 that I remember was a segment on Channel 4 about vloggers, but since that was from October of that year that might be too late in the timeline depending on what you mean with 'oldest' liveshow. Here is that thing though (tw: Sam Pepper) :

Thank you so much for this, I love nerdy charts It’s interesting to see the dates spread out like that, looks like they have a week off at the end of June, probably to prepare themselves for the craziness that is the US dates, they really don’t have much time off during it.
Also, the insta stories seeing them charted like that makes me realise we probably got more content than I originally gave them credit for.
Talking of insta stories, the guy in Dans video is this fans Dad! Haha so funny
Are they still going to release a trailer at this point? The tour has started and has been going a month. Seems pretty pointless now.

My guess is that the trailer is geared toward selling US date tickets, since a lot of the European shows either sold really well or are totally sold out.
Oh, that ig story’s cute. Well done, dad! They look like they’re in a zoo all safe behind glass. It’s good to see every month other than July is spread out more so they’ve only got one hectic one to get through. I’m sure they’re staying hydrated and doing whatever else you can do to keep your energy and stamina up (I wouldn’t know, this humidity is wiping me out some days lately).

I wonder how they’ll spend their time in late June when they have more than a week off before the USA leg of the tour? Lester Family Vacation in Florida... or perhaps Dan will upload that June video and watch the internet implode?
i’m speechless... they are genuinely so beautiful and attractive. And what i love the most is the whole feeling of confidence that i get from them both in this picture?!?
edit : i have to say it again : THEY ARE SO BEAUTIFUL AND CONFIDENT
