IF YOU FOLLOW many young people on Twitter, you may have noticed that a lot of them are very excitable this morning.
That’s because the Janoskians, an improv comedy group with an insanely large and youthful Twitter following, are playing in Dublin and Belfast. Tickets went on sale this morning.

Collectively, they have upwards of 6million Twitter followers and 1.5million YouTube subscribers.

Earlier this week, the Janoskians announced dates in Belfast and Dublin on August 31 and September 1, as part of their Got Cake Tour. There was hysteria.
The tickets went on sale at 8am today, but not everyone could get one:
