Did anyone enjoy Taylor but felt at 3.5 hours it…. dragged a little?

[Fromthenotorious]

I admit that i’m not her biggest fan and it was a bit of a fluke that i got a ticket to go with friends.

I enjoy her music and think she’s amazing but a dedicated Swiftie… I am not!

I just felt that it could have been at least thirty mins shorter and would have been more enjoyable. Even amongst the hardened Swifties around us, I sensed a little restlessness.

Anyone else agree?

How nasty
This is a discussion thread. Just because someone didn't sacrifice their first-born in eternal gratitude for being able to attend a song and dance act by a woman with a carbon footprint the size of a small moon, you call them gloaty and ungrategul?
That is some extra level of bitchy shit

Well the Edinburgh gig was enjoyed to the last moment by everyone around us

But I grew up with Springsteen so guess I am used to a longer gig

She didn't slag it off. 'think of what you've just witnessed?' It was TS not the second coming! 😂

At least you're getting plenty bang for your buck with Taylor Swift. DD went to one of the Edinburgh shows and said it was amazing with loads of energy, costume changes, a real spectacle. Unlike other stars who charge just as much and give you 90 minutes at the most.

😁 stay sharp lovely.

I got into the Wedding Present in my twenties, stupidly got rid of most of my CDs on a clear out but still have some and of course Spotify. They have some cracking tunes.

Nope, Bruce Springsteen in Hyde Park last year was 3 solid hours in stage. No leaving the stage for a costume change or anything. He was in full view singing or talking for 3 whole hours. He's mid 70s now.

eek
someone didn’t manage to get tix!

gloating that i got a little restless at the end of over 3 hours? ok

So, someone not worshipping TS makes them a troll now??
🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢

Oh the irony 😂😂

i didn’t spend hundreds

i spent £75

I must admit I would rather listen to artists just sing rather than keep changing their clothes.

I can see that's what she wants us to think. I'm not 100% convinced she is that.

Yep, inspiring a whole generation of girls to parade about in ridiculous outfits getting laughed at...

I agree OP...a fantastic night, but we left 3 songs before the end to beat the rush (along with lots of others) - I felt I'd had my money's worth by that point and was ready for my bed!

I was just about to say that.

I think for the price some people have paid, it's a generous performance time.

I always thought she had really shit taste in men, although that may not be a recent thing I suppose

We shouldn't be laughing at girls/women based on what they wear, much as I don't like TS, expressive and creative clothing is fab! Of course there are also other better sources of inspiration than TS.

Goodness. The posters who think they have superior music tastes are out in force

What do you get out of sneering at other people's music preferences?

I quite like Taylor Swift, but I'm not a particular fan. I could listen to Bruce Soringsteen, Fleetwood Mac and Dire Straits all day and love classical music, but I don't look down my nose at other acts and display faux naivety at why other people might prefer TS.

lol sorry newbie here and posted my question on your thread!!

I guess if you were a dedicated swiftie then it wouldn’t be too long. I couldn’t sit through an hour let alone 3 but with a band I liked I definitely could.

OMG don't tell them that they'll want to kill you!

I was listening to the charts in the car recently when TS had just released her latest 500 songs and the were all completely meh to my ear. I do like some of her big songs but this was like she was just spamming the charts. Do less but better would be my advice - I guess some would say the same about the gig.

'Think what you have just witnessed' - it wasn't the second coming for Christ's sake.
