    I’d gladly see my favorite bands play 3 hour sets.

    The longest set I’ve seen was Punchline playing 37 songs. Would love it more bands did extended sets.

    I think a 2-2:15 hour set is the sweet spot for me personally. I’ve been to a few 3 hour shows and they’ve tested my patience a little bit. Even Eras was a little laborious in spots, as much as I loved it.

    Even my fave shows I've seen I'm def checking the time so idk how id hold up for 3 hours. It also seems stressful to plan which songs I'd have to leave and use the restroom for real quick. I'm not opposed to it tho especially if the ticket is expensive and it gets your money's worth.

    I was fully dissociating by the time Taylor got to Midnights

    Same, but mostly because it's the only thing my wife has listened to since it came out

    I skip So Long, London every time. To me, that song is so bad.

    I saw it's cheaper to fly over there to see the show than some US dates. Have yet to see this be true, but I do want to see Eras before it ends. Probably not gonna happen unfortunately.

    I cashed in United skymiles, so my flights and floor tickets for Hamburg were cheaper than my lower bowl in Nashville and Detroit.

    That's amazing. I joined the Swift train a little late, only started listening earlier this year. Would loved to have gotten tickets, crazy you got 3 shows.

    I actually missed out on my presale code by about ten minutes, too. A friend of mine got Nashville simultaneously as I missed out on Atlanta, @Craig Manning got Detroit and went to Pittsburgh instead, and my friend in Germany messaged me after being surprised at how cheap they were and how available. It’s been a fun ride.

    What's a lower level ticket go for? Resale in states is thousands.

    I haven’t been able to stop listening to this. In the minority here, but this falls in my top 5 of hers.

    I think I've hit the Taylor Swift saturation point for a little while, because while I really like this album, I have had zero desire to listen to it in the past three weeks.

    I listened to Lover and Midnights today for the first time in a bit. Both have much higher highs and lower lows than anything found on here, but I rarely feel the desire to listen to more than 5-6 songs at a time on Poets whereas I put those on and just jammed on through.

    Has anyone else seen this? The Swifties are really mad at her for not speaking out, I am seeing a lot of angry posts on X and Reddit from them.

    Are you saying they are telling her to...speak now?

    is it the same for you? Prestigious

    We're finally at the point in history where we see if the Swifties can channel their energy into finding a solution for peace in the Middle East. Didn't think we'd actually get here.

    my assumption is that if she ends up saying something (which she might if multiple of her tour mates have now said something, putting a little more pressure on her), it'll be short, state what's already known about the situation and how bad it is, include a link to some relief efforts that fans can donate to, and include a sizable (yet small compared to her net worth) donation from her. some will praise her, some will criticize her, some will say she's not doing enough, and that'll be the one and only time she says anything, moving on with touring.
