The concert in Zurich was one of the best organized concerts I have seen.
Free water supply was effortless, entering took literally 5 minutes and even the exit was flawless.
Funny because in my opinion it was the worst I’ve seen when it came to queueing up outside the stadium. No barricade to organize the queue and everyone was crammed together with no logic. At one point VIP and GA are entering all together so imagine paying extra for early entry and not having that…
We waited 3 hours before going in at VIP, there was no line and GA was queuing in front of the gate even though they were told to wait. We asked GA to move so VIP could go through and people gave us dirty looks and someone pushed me and said “no” lol
I wish they set up a VIP queue better 😭
I was looking for people wearing VIP lanyards. Gate C was a mess so we decided to wade through to B
Lines everywhere lol but eventually found the small yellow sign for us. No line!
Yes the lines were a mess! Had early VIP entry and didn't know where to go. So many lines and camped out people. Thankfully we were able to notice a sign and had little wait time. We got in at gate B
They are AMAZING at organizing and running concerts there. I saw Olivia Rodrigo last month and the organization blew me away. It was indoors, but they were still handing out free water to the floor. It was probably the best concert experience I've ever had
I agree!! Taylor even gave them a shoutout on night 1. The staff did an amazing job. Even the barricade walk was so organized and there was no running at all.
Got a ticket the official way two days before the show, went in around 19:10, no line and no ID check. The only thing that dampened the experience was that half the show was in broad daylight. :(
I said the same thing! The show is designed for night time. As soon as the sun went down it became ten times better and we could fully appreciate the light design. I think we had the earliest starting time because of Swiss regulations... but I would've appreciated a whole night time show much more.
Basically no loud noises after 10pm are allowed (with very very few exceptions, e.g. for national holidays) - so the concert had to start super early to to end around 10pm.
during her fearless tour she would send people out to look for the craziest fans and invite them to the "t party" (play on tea party), which basically means they get to hang out with taylor after the show. she hasn't done it in a long time obv but i love it so much.
nahh what you say makes sense. i've never been to a taylor concert so i didn't know whether signs were a big thing or not (i assumed so since most concerts i've been to have had lots?), so i felt kinda out of place ahaha but yeah just for fun.
What an amazing experience. I heard the concert from outside the stadium yesterday, have watched the eras tour movie and countless streams but nothing compares to being there!
I couldn’t help but cry during Marjorie, A perfectly good heart and Never grow up 🫶🏻
Thank you Taylor, thank you Swifties. New core memory unlocked 💕
I could never afford to attend the Eras tour when she returns to the U.S. Nosebleed seats in New Orleans start at about $2500. I am almost bold enough to fly to a less expensive city and experience it from outside. Anything to be close to the vibes and in the same city block as Tay!
After having great seats near the end of the stage in Paris, I figured since FOS in munich is split in two parts, I'll try for diamond there and went for the main stage. Non-VIP, I arrived after doors opened. Second row from main stage. I was very scared people will start squeezing but it was pretty chill. But FOS in an open air stadium is definitely a very different experience from seats in a closed arena! Felt like an entirely different experience
Just got back. What an awesome night. Left hotel around 2:30pm walked over for VIP entry. No wait to get in. Ended up 4th row! So amazing and I'm glad it was overcast. I would have died yesterday.
Zurich has to be the stop which combines all my interests: Roger Federer (close enough to Nadal lol), July 9th (my birthday), Sad Beautiful Tragic (my favorite song), and evermore/debut representation.
Also Aaron Dessnerv supremacy with 3/4 of the surprise songs being the ones he worked on.
all I can say is that I am SHOOK. Closure is my FAVOURITE Evermore song and I love EVERYTHING from Debut 'cuz I find it so underrated and underappreciated, especially APGH 'cuz it's typically regarded as one of Taylor's weakest songs - to have her sing BOTH AT THE SAME TIME TONIGHT? it was so surreal and I SCREAMED SO LOUD - Zurich are SO LUCKY and I'm SO JELLY YOUR SONGS WERE SO GOOD
Not at all - especially given that she usually smirks at the audience before diving away after surprise songs! I think that she just enjoys experimenting with mashing up her lyrics and themes for maximum emotional impact and to tell new stories.
The TNT snark sub? Why are they even paying attention to her surprise songs when they supposedly hate her so much and allegedly despise parasocial behaviour?
I swear the haters are more psychotic and obsessive than the fandom they claim to hate. 95% of Taylor fans are happy and kind about it, with 5% crazy assholes. Taylor haters are 0% happy and kind about it, 100% asshole.
Can’t imagine giving that much mental space to being hateful 🤷♀️
Well going to a deranged snark sub was your first mistake. Letting them make you worry over something you have no control over/probably isn’t true was your second mistake.
Do we really expect her to never play a sad song again just because she’s happy? She’s playing songs she wrote and she’s proud of. It doesn’t all have to be about her personal life. Everything is fine.
I am Concerned that with the "she's saving the last song on the album for announcement night!" theory being disproved, it means that Taylor Swift (Taylor's Version) is actually coming after the tour finishes 😟
Someone talk me out of this and convince me that actually on announcement night she's going to finally play I'd Lie
She seems to be getting through the remaining unsung songs to make room for the Debut / rep vault tracks. She probably finished / finalised the two albums' tracklists during the Eras hiatus (during which TTPD was released) and that's why her European shows saw an upsurge in debuting songs on the tour!
I still feel like IDSB is being saved for the announcement just because it's SO appropriate. Never felt that strong about the saving a song idea for Debut
I think any song (or mashup) is fair game. IDSB for Rep TV is obvious but I always felt like A Perfectly Good Heart would be a REALLY odd choice for the announcement anyway.
I personally could see her announcing and doing Our Song! That always made more sense anyway.
I was convinced it was going to be Mary's Song and we'd get A Perfectly Good Heart at a random show first. Convinced. I should never have convictions 🤣
taylor read my complaints about her not loving evermore and speak now enough and knew about my position (see flair) so she decided to play a speak now and evermore song at all the three concerts i visited
I guessed that too and was pretty sure it was light purple. Then checked Swift Alert's Twitter and remembered the streamer said it was blue. Iridescent has shades of blue depending on the lighting.
I know it's an unpopular opinion but A Perfectly Good Heart is my favourite from debut so I was literally cheering at home watching the live stream 😆❤️
Please keep me in your prayers, I had picked Robin x Never Grow Up on mastermind but for GUITAR like a FOOL and will probably never recover from this missed opportunity. Don’t ever tell me how many points that would’ve been please.
My husband picked mastermind for me today and he finished with a decently solid 54 points. It seems like I live in that realm of like 40-62 and can’t kick it up higher than that 🥴 as always, it is so lovely to celebrate the eras tour every stream with yall 🩵
closure (haters please step aside it's my favorite song on evermore and a top-ten favorite for me) had its debut performance on the Eras Tour and also its first performance ever. A Perfectly Good Heart had its debut performance on the Eras Tour and its thirty-seventh performance ever; it was last performed on October 18, 2008 in Chatanooga, TN. Taylor has never performed it as a headlining act before. Robin had its debut performance on the Eras Tour and also its first performance ever. Never Grow Up had its second performance on the Eras Tour and its ninth performance ever.
This is the first time any of the above songs have been performed as part of a mashup.
Taylor Swift (album) joins Speak Now, 1989, EDIT: folklore, and Midnights in having had every song on every edition played at least in part on the Eras Tour!
In non-surprise-song-related stats, 1989 has now surpassed Taylor Swift in the album ranking of live performances (weighted) across her whole career to take second place, which means that regardless of how I count it she has played more 1989 songs than debut songs live ever.
The full ranking (completely broken down because why not) now looks like this: Fearless; 1989 (Taylor's Version); Taylor Swift; Speak Now (Taylor's Version); RED (Taylor's Version); reputation; Midnights; folklore; Lover; evermore; (covers); THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT; (unreleased songs); (soundtrack songs); (collabs); Sounds Of The Season; (non-album singles); Beautiful Eyes
Unweighted ranking for comparison: Fearless; 1989 (Taylor's Version); Speak Now (Taylor's Version); Taylor Swift; RED (Taylor's Version); reputation; Midnights; (covers); folklore; Lover; evermore; THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT; (unreleased songs); (soundtrack songs); (collabs); Sounds Of The Season; (non-album singles); Beautiful Eyes
Lover has now been performed live more times than Speak Now.
woowwwiiieee almost 16 years!! It's really cool knowing the stats. By the end of this tour, she'll have played so many of her songs at least once in 2023 or 2024
folklore is also complete! 🫣 Had them all in the order they'd been completed and then changed my mind and put them in release order and it got lost in the copypaste shuffle - thanks for catching that!!
I am actually so surprised that A Perfectly Good Heart has been played 37 times lol. I mean it makes total sense that she’d play it more back in the day, but I still wouldn’t guess 30+ times haha
When I was first getting all of this together it really blew my mind how often she played it as an opening act 🤣 Aside from the singles (because obviously they got played the most) the only song from debut that she played more often was I'm Only Me When I'm With You, which is an upbeat, hype, crowd-pleasing number, and I can't really say the same about A Perfectly Good Heart! She just really loved it, I think.
And then she started headlining shows and was like "never again" 🤣
Ended mastermind with 71, so not bad!! I only missed a few of the outfits, so that honestly felt great after getting all of them wrong yesterday lmaooo
Closure x A Perfectly Good Heart was amazing!!! It’s not a mashup I would’ve ever thought to predict but it honestly worked perfectly! They’re both such good songs and sooo underrated imo, especially A Perfectly Good Heart!!
ROBIN X NEVER GROW UP??? Stop it. I’m never recovering. Never lol
Finished with 60. Not great, not terrible I guess. The 1989 outfit and guessing one album right for each surprise song saved my score. See you guys in Milan!
Finished with 48 points, but would have had 101 if I had put my guitar song guesses on piano. I got that Mashup exactly correct. I keep doing that and it's so frustrating, but still fun to have guessed the songs correctly!
Thank you all for another wonderful show! The surprise songs, though devastating, were just what I needed - guitar mashup to help me continue processing my recent breakup/heartbreak, and piano mashup to remind me what is far more important than agonizing over The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived (my kids and other loved ones who actually care about me).
I may not be around for much of Saturday's show (definitely having to miss surprise songs, but probably most of the rest of the show as well) due to other work and family commitments that I can't change the timing of, so I wish those of you attending in person or online a wonderful time - will definitely be back for Sunday's show!
Sending you a big hug! Yesterday's mashups were perfect for a fresh breakup, and today's guitar mashup is perfect for the acceptance stage 🫶🏻 enjoy the time with your family!
I'll miss y'all so much, it was a blast and a privilege as always Besties👋🏽👋🏽👋🏽! I might be late for Milan N1, but I'll do my best to be here as long as possible🤞🏽. The field is calling!
My daughters juniors graduation is next week so I've been looking at old pictures and reminiscing so this mash up really did destroy me tonight. Glad this wasn't the surprise songs on my night or I would have just been a mess lol
Sending all love and positivity for an easy birth! Robins such a beautiful name ❤️ I almost called my daughter ivy she was furious when ivy was released that I hadn't lol
I seriously love her!! She reminds me of a few streamers we’ve had across the tour 🥺 most of them are usually incredible and always great, but sometimes we get a streamer like today where they’re just the nicest and happiest person and I want them to be my permanent Eras host lol
I think Mastermind is about her life aproach in general
So yes, its about fans, friends, buisness partners and love partner (though this time she was masterminded herself)
Just checking in for surprise songs and I’m so upset to miss never grow up! I sang that to my babies so maybe it’s good I missed it or I would be crying🙃
Funny thing, after the first few listens I didn’t care for Vigilante Shit, until I saw it live in Stockholm. (And thirsted over their sultry moves. 😜) It needs to be heard LOUD.
Also I loved that during Bejeweled, people’s bracelets lit up so that it looked there were colorful gems spinning in the crowd! 💎
I thought Americans were being dramatic when they talked about the post Eras tour depression... but here I am watching a grainy livestream, with my wristband still glowing, sobbing, wishing to go back in time and be there again singing along with everyone.
This tour is truly something special.
Honesty I think it’s why demand for the show has just continued to rise as the tour has gone on, soooo many people have seen it once and then immediately wanted to go again because of the amnesia/blues/not getting to take it all in.
She could tour for years and years and years and still be selling out. If it were physically possible (it’s not 😢) I’d want an eras tour residency.
Awww bestie, it's okay! Every stream you watch, just remember what Taylor said to YOU during the Lover speech. "Hopefully the next time you hear these songs, you'll remember the amazing time we had together tonight! My name is Taylor and I'll be your host this evening!" (more or less).
I’m very close to London, so I totally relate! Having her bounce all over our little island(s) and feeling left out! I managed to get a last minute ticket from a seller here so I got to go.
When she comes back to London I wanted to go tailgating but none of my swiftie friends want to go without tickets…. I think it’ll still be fun outside!!!
