[@amberbydreamsart5467]

For people nervous about going alone: i have gone to many shows alone, it's legit usually a great time!! Just embrace the comfy solitude if you don't want to talk to anyone, if you do want to talk to people you already have a conversation starter, you know these people also watch dan, so just go with it!

[@cakesyouth]

Thanks, I really needed that. I just bought myself a ticket after hesitating for weeks now. I have friends who would go with me but one of them moved to a different country last year and the other one has exams around that time so she's going to be at uni still.

[@verloren918]

Yes! And especially for a show like this where so many of us are awkward introverts. When I was looking at tickets, there were clearly SEVERAL people who were flying solo besides myself. You definitely won't be the only person going alone. Just enjoy it!
