And boy was I excited.
I looovvveeee Taylor. And I am not afraid to say so. I am way outside her target demographic but whatever. Tickets were pretty expensive, but I had a theory that Kelly Clarkson was going to be her surprise guest and I would never forgive myself if I missed a Kelly Clarkson/Taylor Swift duet. Thus, tickets were purchased and my friend and I were going. End of story.
The show was fantastic. Minus the thirteen year old girl sitting next to me who knocked over all my beer while trying to hurdle the seat. Most of it spilled on her, and I would love to hear the explanation she gave her mom when she came home smelling of alcohol. *sweet justice*
The concert included lots of glitter...
..costume changes...
....acting...
...dancing....
...and of course singing....
She even catered to the crowd by wearing a Dallas Cowboys jersey over her ballgown...
Sadly, Kelly Clarkson was not the surprise guest...
It was B.O.B. However, they did do a pretty great version of Airplanes for the crowd. (Note, I did not shoot these videos)
She also did a great version of Don Henley's "Boys of Summer." (I did not shoot this video either.)
And at the end of the concert, her stage literally blew up.
I couldn't believe that they were able to get those kind of pyrotechnics in the stadium.
All in all it was a great concert - my friend Melanie and I thought it was one of the most entertaining shows we had ever been to. If she's in your town make sure you go!

I am so jealous! Taylor came through St. Louis a few weeks/months ago but I didn't think I could find the cash for the tickets. I also don't know who would go with me to fight the thirteen year olds.
I have similar taste in music. Although I think most of her songs sound the same, I would have went to see her too! Glad you had fun!
I have absolutely no shame in admitting that I am a closet T.Swift fan. I think you always just need to find a buddy who you can unabashedly sing along to her cds with and not be ashamed for knowing all the lyrics :) Never seen her in concert though!
AWESOME! Love me some T Swift! I tried getting tix to her show here, but it was crazy expensive. Next time, definitely.
