It's 92 degrees outside. (33 Celsius) and I'm wearing dark skinny jeans, black tshirt, and chuck taylors. If it gets above 110 (43 C) I might wear shorts (black, of course). If it gets below 50F (10 C) I will probably wear a hoodie.

That it was an architecture tour makes my non-teenage-relatable-Dan-and-Phil-interests-loving heart thump so fondly.

i loved her even before that tbh, her tweets are the only interesting and entertaining thing about this tour
:gg:
She's a little bit rude, isn't she. I've gotten the vibe off of her tweets that she doesn't like them for some reason. I think that's a piece of why I find the merch crew situation weird.
oh..no. i think she is really sweet and funny. She doesnt know much about them but i wouldnt say he doesnt like them

I'm really enjoying Photographer!Phil Iately. His compositions are nice. Would love to see more from his, um, personal portfolio. And that tweet seemed a bit more emotional than usual. Those two with their romantic boat tours...

They're off to even prettier places now, though. Can't wait for them to get out west. I'm especially excited for them to see Texas, Arizona, Colorado...and, yes, hope we see more of photographer Phil 'cause

Some of us take it to forever.
My friends and I had a big party in the park yesterday. Around 50 of us and it was in the high 70s. Here's a photo of some of the attendees.

wow, haha :lol:

but at least one person is wearing a sleeveless top and shorts (which is all I want from them! Dan could technically stick to black clothing)! But man...I couldn't do that. I live in a part of the US that is relatively mild, but the middle of summer still pushes my ability to occupy physical form

I'm surprised that there are still queries on why is not hanging out with the merch crew, it has been established awhile back from the merch girl that they run on different schedule.

Moreover hanging out in the public with will zap out all the fun the group will have as viewers will keep on turning up asking for photos etc. In the end the group will leave them be to enjoy themselves, so beats the purpose of hanging out together.

When I was accompanying a celebrity shopping, I made sure we made an appointment with the boutique/shop owner and went there when the shopping crowd has yet to start. If not done that way, a half hour ordeal will take us hours due to fan encounters and the celeb just can't say no or there will be backlash.

Yes, i agree. Plus i doubt deps would like to hangout with strangers as well. The merch crew seems to be majorly Martin and Cornelia's American friends, who deps probably don't even met before this tour. I wouldn't expect they all get chummy in three weeks. We all know what deps are like.

And they are the big bosses on this tour, there's just no reason to hang out with subordinates all the time, it just over complicate things, make management a lot harder. Keeping a boundary between boss and employee is kinda important.

Most probably they'll have a wrap-up party hosted by for all the support team.

I do admire how professional Martyn & Cornelia are, they are family but when it comes to work they don't mix it. I also feel M&C are great at keeping the staff morale high at least the merch team, and it would not surprise me might "sponsor" their fun trips.

I don't see why you wouldn't hang out with your own crew sometimes unless you were a complete diva, which probably aren't. Like someone said in the last thread, even big celebrities on tour do things with their crew. As for not being photographed, again, why would they be so weird about not being photographed unless they were trying to be sneaky about something. Also, sneaking off to go sightseeing alone together comes across as a couple-y thing to do.
I think the crew spends a lot of time both before and after the show at the venues setting up and striking the set, equipment, and merch tables. Probably more convenient for them to stay in Milwaukee than rushing back to Chi-town. Perhap D&P split back to Chicago to spend their day off (no offense Milwaukee, but I'd rather be in Chicago too.) Jfc, D&P certainly don't know how to dress incognito: their sheer size and semi-unique style would make it easy to spot them, particularly when they are out and about together.

I doubt it, to me it seems deps just leave everything merch related completely for martynelia to decide, and give them a bunch of freedoms. But i don't think they will go as far as sponsoring their trips.

On the other hand we don't hear from stage crew much, maybe deps hang out with them sometimes?

Idk i just think overall they are not the kind of people that likes to hang out with others, unlike most celebrities, they rather stay indoor and play 3ds for 5 hours.

Re: the architectural boat tour: Phil allegedly likes to watch home makeover / DIY type TV shows, so it makes sense. Personally, I can relate: I'm addicted to HGTV.

It would be a shame to lose that welcoming feeling here - it's what encourages people to de-lurk after all, as they feel safe to do so without being judged.

I often lurk as by the time I've read the thread my views have been voiced, often much more eloquently, by someone else. But it's still nice to feel that you can join the conversation if you wish.

It's also not exactly hard to find out pretty much anything you want if you dig deep enough (v day vid, old tweets etc.) so I'm not really sure what 'the greater phandom' is?

Please keep being lovely, welcoming and open IDB we love you for it
this is so sweet!! my thoughts exactly
