What crew can and cannot see

The Crew role is intentionally scoped to day-of information. Here's what you see and what you don't.

What you CAN see​

  • Show schedule — dates, times, venues, cities
  • Day-of details — load-in, soundcheck, set times
  • Travel info — drive times, lodging, parking
  • Contacts — venue day-of contact, TM, bandmates
  • Private notes from TM (tour-specific)
  • Gear / rider info — what's provided, what to bring
  • Public notes — shared across band and crew

What you CANNOT see​

  • Guarantees (per-show payment)
  • Door splits / versus deals
  • Budget (tour total costs, projected P&L)
  • Settlement math (post-show actuals)
  • Venue booker contact (you see day-of contact, not the booker who negotiates deals)
  • Inquiry threads (venue deal negotiations)
  • Other crew members' pay / per-diem arrangements

Why this split​

  • Respects performer privacy. Bands often have different pay arrangements — some members salaried, some paid per-show, some on spec. Surfacing all of it would create friction.
  • Protects negotiation leverage. If every crew member sees that the venue is paying $2k guarantee while hiring a $600 sound tech, it changes dynamics in ways that don't help the band.
  • Keeps the focus on the job. Your job on tour is to execute shows, not track P&L.

Exceptions (Owner's choice)​

Owner can grant Crew view-access to specific items:

  • Budget visibility — on a per-tour basis, Owner can toggle "Crew can see budget" in Team settings.
  • Profit-share tours — some bands transparently split; Owner enables full financial visibility.
  • Per-member overrides — Owner can elevate a specific crew member (e.g., your FOH engineer) to Tour Manager-lite if they need to see deal terms.

Ask the Owner if you think you need elevated access.

How to request more access​

If you genuinely need visibility a Crew role doesn't have:

  1. Message the Owner directly (Mintoor message, not complaint).
  2. Explain the use case: "I'm doing merch settlement post-show and need to see the door-cut expense line to reconcile."
  3. Owner can elevate, toggle budget visibility, or explain why they prefer to keep it private.

Most Owners are reasonable. If not, it's a band-level conversation, not a Mintoor-level fix.

Still stuck?​

  • Think you should see something but can't. Check your role in the band switcher — you may be Guest when you should be Crew.
  • Something visible that shouldn't be. Rare. Email us — we'll audit.
