Band members

Should the touring members be included under band members?

It seems that only Ezra Koenig, Chris Thomson and Chris Baio are official members with Rostam being a former member. Elhinp (talk) 20:38, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Fan Culture

Should the evolution of fan culture have its own section? Koenig often engages online with homemade merch, inside jokes, and art that fans have made. He even collects fan bootlegs himself. Audience requests and interactions have become a distinctly prominent presence on their Father of the Bride tour. The culture is often compared to that of Deadheads, and they have several sections dedicated to their impact at Grateful Dead shows, why does this article have zero? — Preceding unsigned comment added by BeKinderRewinder (talk • contribs)

If there are a couple of good WP:SECONDARY sources discussing this aspect, then something can be added. Certainly the Deadheads have a lot of published material written about them, a lot more than Vampire Weekend's fan base. But a few good sources would allow some description.
