The Eras Tour began in March of this year, and has become something of a cultural phenomenon. Millions fearlessly survived “the great war” to get tickets for  their local show. The concert spans all ten of Swift’s albums, seamlessly transitioning from one “era” into the next.

   I, thankfully, was able to secure tickets to Taylor’s Mother’s Day show at the Linc in Philly, but not all were the lucky one. Whether it was because of Ticketmaster’s inability, or concerts being an unsafe and uncomfortable environment for you, many Swifties were unable to experience the festivities of The Eras Tour.

   Because of this, Swift made the brilliant decision to partner with AMC Theatres and create Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, a concert film that allows audiences to sing, dance, and enjoy the Eras Tour in a safe space. I saw the Eras Tour film this weekend with my mother and cousin Grace, and am excited to speak now about it in my debut article about my favorite artist like, ever.

   The music in The Eras Tour is phenomenal. Even though some of my favorite songs, like “Long Live”, “Wildest Dreams”, and “Cardigan” were cut for time, I was still very happy with the discography and song choices for each era. I loved that Taylor chose “Our Song” and “You’re On Your Own Kid” for the acoustic set of surprise songs. They showcase Swift’s range and evolution as an artist from the beginning of her career to now.

   My favorite part of the film was being able to see the intricate detail of The Eras Tour. In person, I was not able to see the fact that the Lover microphone was pastel pink and blue, or the facial expressions of Taylor and the backup dancers. The sets, the shots of the crowd, the choreography, the visuals on the giant screens—everything was incredibly well-organized and a pleasure to watch.

   I adored The Eras Tour concert film. It was everything I hoped it would be and more. I laughed, cried, sang, and danced in Theatre 13 with Grace and my mother (who fell asleep during the ten minute version of  “All Too Well”), and had as wonderful of a time in the theater as I did in the stadium. This article is me following Taylor’s advice to “capture it, remember it”, and I will remember this moment.
