Line check at the 2 Harry Styles pop-up merch shops

Harry Styles fans have two places to stock up on merch in the East Village. 

The main "Together, Together" pop-up is at 22 E. Second St. between Second Avenue and the Bowery. A second location — reportedly the express version — is on Great Jones Street between the Bowery and Lafayette Street. 

We happened to walk by both shops yesterday and found blocks-long waits. The Second Street location had two separate lines — one going up Second Avenue to Fourth Street... and another around and down the Bowery to First Street.
Despite the wait, the line-dwellers we spoke with were cheerful and excited... 

The pop-ups coincide with Styles' 30-night "Together, Together" residency at Madison Square Garden, which continues through Oct. 31.
Seems as if the merch also requires a residency...

  2. Par for the course for the neighborhood I guess... turning into a playground for basic rich white girls like the West Village.

  6. Lines for shoes, bagels, cookies, cronuts, , iPhones, "merch", and whatever is the latest "got to have to be photograph for my Instagram account" items. Yet none of them is in scare supply. Why?
