Taylor Swift has launched the international dates of her tour The Eras Tour and with it the “swiftie” fan phenomenon is strengthened in Europe. The American pop singer kicked off her sixth world tour in March 2023, which is breaking sales records, reaching two million tickets sold in a single day. The tour is focused on reviewing her more than ten years in music, “a journey through the musical eras of (her) her career,” said the American.
Taylor began his career in country music in 2006, although after hits like “Shake it Off”, “Cruel Summer” or “Blank Space” he has established himself as one of the most internationally recognized pop superstars. The singer has been awarded 12 Grammy Awards, 40 American Music Awards and two Golden Globe nominations, among many other awards.
For this reason, it is not surprising that Miss Americana – that is the name of her documentary – moves an exorbitant number of followers, who during this new tour have shown, once again, the crazy things they are willing to do to see her live.
The Taylor Swift fan phenomenon is known to be one of the most loyal fans on the music scene. This is how we knew about the case of Katherine, a young woman who decided to use adult diapers during the three hours of the concert so as not to miss anything.
Argentina is also being one of the victims of the swiftie movement. The author of “Bejeweled” will give several concerts at the Monumental Stadium in River Plate (Buenos Aires) and in the streets around the venue there are already tents with groups of fans eagerly awaiting the moment to see their favorite singer .
Another of the events known to go viral on the networks is the case of Davis Perrigo, a boy who, unable to get tickets for Swift’s tour, decided to work as a security guard at the Nashville concert that the singer herself was offering at that time.
The eras tour, the tour that covers his entire musical career, has generated a demand for tickets never seen before on Ticketmaster. The platform issued a statement of apology, both to the singer and to her fans, as she was not able to deal with the 14 million people who wanted to buy seats and could not. This caused a disproportionate effect on the resale of tickets that reached the figure of 100,000 dollars. Currently, the platform is facing an antitrust investigation as it is the only way to access the purchase of tickets.
Taylor Swift is known for writing love and heartbreak songs based on her own experience, a fact that punishes her with countless criticisms of her compositions, since they are based on her many love relationships. Even so, the singer’s talent has always been recognized when it comes to writing sincere, empathetic and emotional lyrics.
