Taylor Swift

Back in the fall, I waited almost 6 hours in a (virtual) line to get tickets to see Tay. Megan was very excited that I was successful. The weekend of June 30 - July 2, Cincinnati turned into a Tay wonderland. David drove us downtown; we checked out the Banks, then headed to the stadium. It was insane. Once we managed to get inside the stadium, we made our way to the other side of the stadium and found our seats. They were pretty good: only 18 rows from the floor, and straight-on. My favorite part was watching others in our area sit down, look around, and say an excited "NOT BAD!" We sat down at 6:20p, and the opening act (Muna). She only sang 5 songs, because Taylor wanted to come on early because of imminent weather. Then, only 3-4 minutes after she was done, a clock appeared with a countdown to Taylor. As soon as those 2:40 were done, there she was. The energy in the place was insane, absolutely insane. Hopefully that is apparent from some of the videos. It was impressive how the entire crowd was so calm in trying to get in to the stadium, or waiting in line for merch. Probably because it was approximately 90% women. Here are the videos I took.

Line for Taylor Swift merchandise on Thursday:
