Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has taken the UK by storm, however one woman who managed to bag tickets has claimed the show was ‘too long’ – meaning even hardcore Swifties were ‘restless’
It’s no surprise that Taylor Swift has been playing to sold out stadiums across the UK on her Eras Tour.
From Edinburgh to Liverpool and London, she’s been wowing Swifties with her performances – and you can barely log on to any social media platform without being inundated with clips of her performances.
While most people would do anything to see their favourite artist perform for three-and-a-half hours, some have felt as though Taylor’s show was excessively long, claiming that even “hardened Swifties” were getting a little bored.
Taking to Mumsnet this morning (Monday, June 24), one woman wrote: “Did anyone enjoy Taylor but felt at 3.5 hours it…dragged a little?” She went on to explain she is not Taylor’s “biggest fan”, and it was a “fluke” that she managed to bag tickets to go with her pals.
“I enjoy her music and think she’s amazing but a dedicated Swiftie…I am not,” she wrote, going on to share that she thought the show should’ve been “30 minutes shorter” as it would’ve made it “more enjoyable”.
“Even amongst the hardened Swifties around us, I sensed a little restlessness,” she claimed, asking whether others felt the same. Others disagreed though, saying that they loved the show and suggesting it was better than being at a concert where the artist does “40 minutes then buggers off”.
One wrote: “We were there last night. Couldn’t see anyone flagging and there was enough energy to make Wembley shake with the surprise songs. Only Taylor Swift can pull off a 3-hour show like that.” Another pointed out: “Springsteen used to do five-hour gigs.”
Someone else was fuming at the woman complaining. They said: “Stop gloating on here and think of what you’ve just witnessed. So many people were desperate to see her and have your experience and you sound thoroughly ungrateful.” Another Taylor fan defended the show, sharing: “Nope. There was no flagging around us and definitely a sense of wishing it would go on longer.”
