Taylor Swift - The Eras Tour

[RainOnFire]

Yeah this is fan service at the absolute highest level. I'm genuinely in awe, I mean three hours is basically unheard of for a pop concert right? And what's crazier is, as mentioned previously, she didn't have to do all of this because she got everyone's coins regardless. I have so much respect for her, truly.

Now for the setlist... there are a few chops, but I also get why they're there (namely her Lover choices). But surely no one would miss 22? Red's title track was maybe not as big a hit but could've been in 22's spot to represent the album better (but that's something she didn't seem to understand even in 2012). Either that, State of Grace, or Message In a Bottle would've been my picks.

Including Vigilante Shit in a show meant to highlight the very best of her 15-year-spanning catalogue is so unserious nn she just can't help herself. One of the 3 AM tracks could've taken its spot.

I would've included Mr. Perfectly Fine to give Fearless TV representation (and in turn, taken out one of the Folklore songs), and obviously Sparks Fly and Back to December should've been there. But either way, the fact that I'm editing a setlist that currently has 44 songs is legitimately insane and the stuff of stan dreams.

The way she gave Vigilante Shit a highlight performance with that chairography thought. Hate her. Also seeing the pre-show music and realizing she's not doing False God (but playing it before show like ddd?) and Maroon got me feeling a little "whew" but... it is 3 hours long. No way to complain about songs not making the cut.

 

[NoSignOfLife]

The way she emotionally damages the audience by including the saddest songs during the folklore/evermore sections. How is she allowed to get away with this?

The way I never would have guessed the girl singing Tim McGraw in 2006 would be this absolute pop titan in 2023. Good for her.

[ChrisKostakis]

The fact she's playing a song like tolerate it in a stadium to 60k+ people is fucking wild. Never would I have imagined in the middle of the pandy we'd get such a strong stadium show outing for folklore and evermore.

To think that 1989, in hindsight, wasn't her apex imperial phase is kinda nuts.

 

[HairBodyFace]

So looks so beautiful. All the outfits are on point actually for their eras.

I was just about to say, I got Gaga Superbowl x Dua Lipa 2021 Grammys teas so I'm not surprised it's Versace. She looks great!

 

[HairBodyFace]

Let’s start a rumor about Speak Now next so she’s forced to perform more songs from it

 

[Truce]

Not me sobbing watching her do the 10 min All Too Well on night 2 as if I didn’t watch this whole thing literally 24 hours ago

 

[Babyface]

New outfit for the folklore section tonight.

 

[Florencia.]

She is singing This is Me Trying tonight on the guitar, and State of Grace on the piano

 

[VICTORsaurio]

Poor debut.

 

[Florencia.]

I didn't watch the full Livestream today, but from what I saw, Taylor was way more relaxed and talkative, she seemed to be having so much fun, she sounded better, everything seemed to flow better. And the audience seemed more alive than yesterday's. Even the end felt less rushed than last night.

 

[drewsky]

I have to laugh at her killing the first album after opening night.

 

[MrJames]

Aww I think she should have kept in Tim McGraw for the neatness of all ten albums being included.

 

[ChrisKostakis]

She's so ruthless, I'm surprised she hasn't released an "album" of the setlist with Taylor's Versions of all the songs that haven't been released yet.

 

[enjoy]

I love that the surprise song is Mirrorball. Like, the taste jumped out.

 

[bryan89]

Such a weird choice to cut the debut. How is this a journey through all the eras? Hm?

But I fully expect her to throw out an album for this at some point. It's a great tour to push a Best of / Greatest Hits.

Get more coin queen.

 

[Violet Chemistry]

I am a bit gutted Tim McGraw was a ‘surprise’ song rather than in the setlist.

She really said let me show them evermore isn’t my least favourite… debut is!

 

[aux]

Dare I jinx it, but I don’t think this tour will get cut down when it comes here summer next year. I know the UK has bizarre laws around curfews, but artists circumvent that by starting way earlier. I’ve seen countless rock bands start their sets at 6:30 PM to play more than three hour long sets.

 

[Vasilios]

Yeah it's basically 1,5 support acts + main act timewise.
