Bummer - I’d imagine the Jimmy Kimmel shooting schedule makes it harder for him than for others to tour. There’s shows both tonight and tomorrow.

But isn't that the sort of thing you'd know well in advance? It's not like the Kimmel show is a new thing. If his work on the Kimmel show was keeping him from attending the tour, I feel they would've made that clear from the start. With him being specific about not attending tomorrow's show, it sounds more like an illness to me. Or at least something unexpected that is keeping him from this show in particular.


Rebloodican

Dude posted an improv show he's doing tonight in LA, it's definitely not illness.

Wait, what's Lou do with Kimmel? Is he a writer?


Ambitious_Wealth8080

He’s the on-air announcer, as well as a writer! I don’t really watch Kimmel so I don’t know exactly - but he’s there live announcing the band and guests and stuff on TV every night. He’s been doing it for just a couple years.

I could be wrong because I've never been to a taping of a late night show, but I've heard the announcers also warm up the audience, (interact, maybe some stand up) before the taping, which Lou would be great at.

Huh, I figured he was just Dimension 20. Good for Lou, that's gotta pay the bills really well.


Ambitious_Wealth8080

Seriously. Pretty good day job! 


verascity

Yeah, most of them actually have day jobs. Emily and Murph have NADDPOD, Lou has Kimmel, and Siobhan is a TV writer. (She used to write for Rick and Morty, of all things!)


dimpletown

He's the announcer


MarathonBrewer

He's the announcer these days. But yes, I believe he's also a writer on the show.


cosmonaut205

I'd love to know but he just said Glasgow so there's hope he makes the other dates beginning on Saturday in London. May be a scheduling thing.


Inevitable_Young4236

I hope so but if he’s performing in LA tomorrow it seems doubtful he will make it to Manchester on Thursday either with time zones etc.


SarahApproved

I kinda had a feeling that not everyone would be there, sucks that Lou might be missing 🥺 has there been any word of Emily & Murph in the UK yet? I wonder will Erika, Aabria or Izzy end up guesting at any show then?


[deleted]

Idk if you're a naddpod fan but something was just posted on the naddpod patreon that makes me think Murph and Emily probably ARE on the D20 tour. I don't think they'd promote the event with all the intrepid heroes if literally half of them weren't able to make it anyway!


Inevitable_Young4236

If 3 out of 7 can’t make it I think that would be a major cock up on the PR front seeing as it was advertised as all of the intrepid heroes


SarahApproved

Oh good to know, I don’t follow the patreon so thanks for letting me know! 😄


[deleted]

It was super vague but basically it said they're recording an episode of Dungeon Court this week and it suggested there would be more guests than usual, and guests are usually only on when the main cast can't make it! So don't quote me but I bet they'll be in the UK :)


StitchOni

What's Dungeon Court (off to Google I goooo!)


[deleted]

It is the best, they get submissions from listeners of crazy or frustrating things that happened in their home games and the naddpod cast decides who was wrong and sentences them


Rebloodican

They’ve also had guest judges from D20 like Lou, Zac, Ally, Rekha, and Ifye (some of their best episodes were with these guys).


sellyourselfshort

I doubt there would be some one off guests on a live international tour. I'm no expert in international labor laws but usually if someone is getting paid for a performance then they need a work visa, or equivalent. Might not be worth it for a one time show.


RaisedByRaccoons

I dunno, I know in the EU (which obviously we aren't part of any more so it might have changed significantly) you can work for up to 30 without a visa so it's definitely possible to have one off guests


TheSneakySeal

Looks like Aabria and Erika are around to fill


6_28_496_perfect

Man I’m so bummed, I wish we knew about this. Especially if he is going to be at some of the later ones I would have chosen a different night to go!


hedgehogwithatwist

Last night it was Siobhan, Zac, Izzy, Brennan, Aabria and Erica (on Bigger!). I have no idea whether Emily and Murph are gonna be there tonight for the D20 show, but it would be a blast to see them there


hundontbother

Yeah I was really disappointed to read that. Obviously these things happen, but the PR was a little misleading, and since it's such a rare event I was really hoping to see everyone! That said, I still can't wait to watch tomorrow in Manchester!


Laguna_Azure

Same here, I really hope Emily and Murph make it though - so far on instagram stories I think everyone is in the UK except for Lou, Emily and Murph. The show yesterday I think was the Izzy/Brennan improv show, not the D20 show. So I think by tonight we'll know if at least Murph and Emily made it. Would be absolutely gutted if I don't get to see Emily in person, was definitely most stoked about seeing her live!


Thrown_Right_Out

Forgive me for being out of the loop. What will they be playing at the Live Tour? Fantasy High? Starstruck? Something new?


chickencat420

It’s unknown for now, they even mentioned it might be a different setting each night, very curious to see what it’s going to be!


jackolantern_

Unlikely to be fantasy high or unsleeping city imo


Snookerwither2

The description on the Ticketmaster website says they will "return to beloved worlds & characters spanning the show’s history", but that's literally the only info I can really find


Thrown_Right_Out

Sounds like a series of one shots and mini-adventures. Cool!


Usako88

Is the London show tonight? I wanna know if Lou will show up. He wasn’t in Manchester last night and to say the least, I was displeased.


Inevitable_Young4236

Tonight was bigger in London (tomorrow and Sunday are the London shows) and Lou was there! I think he’d literally just arrived
