MY TAYLOR SWIFT EXPERIENCE



SO GUYS I WENT TO THE 1989 WORLD TOUR AND I CANT EVEN BELIEVE IT MYSELF. You guys should know by now im a huge t-swizzle fan and if you didnt you must be new... Anyway, i did get the opportunity to go to her recent tour concerts in columbus!

So let start from the beginning..
My mom bought my sister and i tickets for the friday show in december of 2014. So ive been waiting for over 7 months and then months later its a week before the concert when my aunt tells my mom she has something to give me... ITS HER TAYLOR SWIFT TICKETS FOR THE THURSDAY SHOW!! I couldnt believe it i get two nights of taylor and my seats are to die for.
first night tickets
FAST FORWARD TO CONCERT NIGHTS:
So for the thursday show i brought my mom and we went to Dicks Last Resort which is right by nationwide for dinner and it was so much fun. Even though our waiter didnt give us hats and mock us it was still delicious. Then my friend anna was actually going the same night so i waited for her to arrive so we could take some pics together before the show!
 

Then my mom went into the venue to find our seats and when we did i think i peed because WE WERE SO CLOSE! I mean the stage was literally right there in front of my eyeballs.

So once we arrived at our seats we kind of just relaxed because we were in there about 45 minutes early before the show actually started. Most of the time we were watching the screen and what taylor was playing or on our phones telling everyone about our amazing seats. I literally could not fathom the fact that we were so close, we had seats where you didnt have to watch the screens to see the artist up close you just see them. It was truly insane and im so thankful to my aunt and uncle for their tickets! Oh and by the way THEE andrea swift ended up being 10 ft from me and waved to me and i think my hear exploded.

Then finally 7;30 hit and her opening act Vance Joy came out! I know a couple of songs by him, but he only played one song i knew. Now dont get me wrong that doesnt mean i didnt enjoy his set because i definitely did. Vance has such a good vibe to him and his sound of music. Its very calming and nice to listen to.



Once Riptide came on though i was jamming hard core. My plan for the night was to record things i wanted to. I had such good seats i couldnt help myself and plus i had another night to relive it and remember it without a video camera.

My favorite performance from vance was probably the song where he had everyone hold a light up in the arena. It made everything so much brighter and it made it beautiful. It made the song a lot more connected too. I believe he performed Georgia during it and im now in love with that song.

After Vance left the stage it was about 8:00 and taylor came on in like 30 minutes. Now im sure you can imagine how i felt at this point and that i could not contain myself. MY IDOL WAS COMING ON A STAGE 20 FT FROM ME IN LESS THAN AN HOUR I WAS NOT OKAY. I couldn't believe how lucky i was to even be at the concert because it was sold out and thats 15000 people.

It was honestly the longest 30 minutes of my life waiting for her, but it was worth it. When finally the lights went out and the crowd was on their feet and the only thing you could hear were screams, time was no longer relevant. The opening scene was a clip of New York and the stage was set in that type of scene and finally the lights brighten, the dancers come out, and then i see a little ball of sunshine appear and i scream so loud i think i made my mom deaf. Then she began to sing Welcome to New York and i sang every single word.


That is not a zoomed picture and now you can really tell how good our seats were. And at one point during welcome to new york she came towards our side and i could see her sweat and she looked my way. I MELTED AND DIED. I couldnt believe what i was seeing and the night had only just begun!!

The rest of the concert was just as great with so many great speeches, performances, costumes, and vocals. If i went into detail we would be here all night so youll just have to trust me.




  


All the wristbands lit up red while she sang an acoustic version of RED
Taylor day 1 is just as successful as i assumed it would be. At the end when she sings shake it off confetti canons and fireworks went off and you know after the show i stole me some confetti and brought it home. Its memories guys its not creepy.

Anyway, after the concert was over i couldnt believe how time flew by. I really didnt want it to be over but i knew id be back tomorrow! It made me even more excited for the friday show just to see her again!


I did end up buying a concert shirt. It is just a black t shirt that has 'Taylor Swift' written in neon looking signs on the front then it has her tour dates on the back. How basic i know but i wanted it so whatcha gonna do.



NOW ITS TIME FOR DAY 2 ARE YOU GUYS PREPARED?!?!?!

I WASNT



Day 2 began with my sister coming home from her apartment and then we got our hair done and my hair was finally redyed and cut short again! I love it and s/o to stephaine she is the bomb. After we got our hair done we went to pick up our friends Kristina and Carolynn because they also had tickets so we decided to hang with them before the concert! So we decided to eat some subs then head down the nationwide were we had a huge photoshoot!










After our photo shoot we took an adventure down town because Carolynns and i's older sisters wanted some gum so we headed to the convention center to find a convenience store for there stinky breath problems.

Once we eventually found one we all noticed that kristinas outfit was inside out the whole time and that was so funny but she got it fixed dont fret.

After our adventures we headed back to nationwide and i bought another shirt this time a cutoff with her face on it. Also jess bought a mug and we bought our mom a calendar. Then we headed inside and we had to split off because we had lower bowl seats and they had upper bowl.

Once we arrived in our seats we got super excited and didnt have to wait as long for vance to come on and sing his songs. Jess really enjoyed his slow and calm vibe as well as i did.

Now when Taylor came on we freaked out. I didnt take as much photos or videos because i was to busy living in the moment and screaming the lyrics. Her setlist and dances happened to be the same but that didnt bother me one single bit. I loved it just as much, if not more! My sister and i ended up losing our voices and couldnt speak at all after the concert ended.

In conclusion, if you have a chance to see her in concert i suggest you do because she is amazing live and she is the best. She has amazing musicality and a perfect voice. I dont have a favorite because everything was equally amazing.

And here are some final pictures for you to enjoy. Thanks for reading my taylor swift experience and if you want more heres a video for it:
