You can't beat going to watch someone live. It is one of those experiences that you can
00:06
make an event of it. You can go for a weekend to a city away, you can go for a meal before,
00:11
you can make it a family occasion, a friend's occasion, just meet new friends. I mean, I
00:15
went to one of Taylor Swift's concerts by myself and made a great group of friends.
00:21
So yeah, it is one of those ones where, I mean, a concert is for everyone and music
00:25
is also for everyone. It's a great way to just socialise.
00:28
As Taylor Swift's record-breaking Eras Tour swept through the UK in 2024, with fans scrambling
00:34
for tickets, Manchester and London emerged as the top cities for her fanbase, followed
00:39
closely by Nottingham. The 12-time Grammy winner outsold music legends like Bruce Springsteen
00:44
and the Foo Fighters.
00:45
We found that a lot of tickets were actually sold just a month before and others, a quarter
00:50
of the tickets were actually sold just the week before. I was lucky enough to get tickets
00:55
for Taylor Swift the week before. I just didn't have the time to sit in the queue for
00:58
hours when the tickets first went on sale. So it's really incredible that I could get
01:03
tickets at the last minute and had the opportunity to be flexible.
01:08
And you can really see the influence as well, can't you? Obviously, Sabrina Carpenter joining
01:11
Taylor Swift on her tour in the US. And then you can see the influences in the Short and
01:16
Sweet tour with the different outfit reveals and what outfit she's going to do tonight,
01:20
that kind of thing. I do think, you know, with Taylor's record-breaking tour, you have
01:26
to be living under a rock not to hear about the Eras tour. What do you think sets Taylor
01:31
Swift apart from other global artists in captivating audiences?
01:34
I just think her sort of music, the songwriting she's done, I don't know, there's something
01:39
about it that really connects to everyone, whether you just like singing along, they're
01:43
catchy. I mean, I think that's why Sabrina Carpenter's done so well, because her music
01:47
is catchy. Everyone's sort of singing along in their head. Even if you don't want to,
01:50
you're like, oh, it's in my head now, which I think is what everyone wants. It's just
01:55
like a catchy, feel-good song. Some people can relate to them.
