I’ll add that of course Taylor is in so many many ways better than u2 and no one will ever understand “unless you were there” but at least U2 understood the irony of how what they did was pure show biz and how consumerism was destroying the world at the same time.
You never get that with Taylor the understand that consumerism has a negative effect on the world.

It is not normal! Just as it’s not normal to go attend Wimbledon or the Met Gala.
It’s no different than the Super Bowl or World Series. That’s the level this concert is.
Well no, its not.![]()
Agreed. The demand is higher.
Demand may be higher (fools), but level is much lower.

Not sure what you mean about level, but I also detect some misogyny in this.

Because your daughter can buy the shirt and talk to her friends who have the shirt or the hoodie about how great the show was and then look down on the kids whose parents didn't pay for them to attend
Being in a stadium of 60-70K fans all singing in unison is a pretty cool experience. It’s not all about the shirts.
+1 to this. The opening number of the show, when the crowd's wrist lights (in LA) all come on in unison, the full-throated roar of the 70 thousand strong crowd, the amaziing lighting and props . . . gives you chills, actually. Kind of mind-boggling the power/sway over multitudes this young woman has! Perhaps the Romans gathered in the Coliseum felt the same when the gladiators came out in full regalia.
We were 2nd row on the floor by the diamond in Pittsburgh. It was the most incredible experience seeing her perform and the show atmosphere was like nothing I've ever experienced.
The only downside was that I kept wanting to watch my DDs watch her instead of watching the show myself!
