The Eras Tour, which began on March 17 in Glendale, Arizona, has been an exciting experience for Taylor Swift fans.
After a hiatus from touring since 2018, Taylor dedicated months to prepare for this tour, aiming to deliver an unforgettable experience to her fans. The anticipation surrounding the setlist was immense, as Taylor had released four albums and re-recorded two of her previous albums since her last tour.
On the opening night, Taylor set the tone for the tour by taking the audience on a journey through her entire catalog of music. She started with songs from the Lover era and continued to perform a total of 44 songs throughout the evening. Adding an element of surprise, Taylor announced that two songs in the setlist would change each night, ensuring a unique experience for every show. However, if she made a mistake performing one of those songs, she would revisit it in a later performance.
While Taylor initially kept the show's details secret, some songs she planned to perform were leaked by fans outside the stadium. Nevertheless, the full setlist, along with Taylor's diverse outfits representing each era, was revealed on the first night. The setlist included hits like "Love Story," "You Belong With Me," and "Shake It Off," as well as tracks from her recent albums, such as "Willow" and "Cardigan."
Additionally, Taylor surprised fans with extended versions of songs like "All Too Well," which won a Grammy award and gained popularity as the 10-minute version.
Throughout the tour, Taylor made some alterations to the setlist beyond the two secret songs. During the third weekend of the tour on March 31, she replaced "Invisible String" from the Folklore era with "The 1" from the same album. Taylor playfully addressed the unpredictable nature of the Eras Tour, emphasizing that she enjoys surprising her fans and keeping them on their toes.
With a vast discography of hundreds of songs and ten albums, Taylor had a plethora of options to curate the setlist. Since her previous tour, she released the albums Lover, Folklore, Evermore, and Midnights, in addition to re-recordings of Fearless and Red. These re-recordings included new songs that were not included in the original releases. Notably, "All Too Well (10 Minute Version)" made it onto the setlist in its entirety, receiving critical acclaim and earning Taylor a Grammy award.
Overall, the Eras Tour has been an exciting and nostalgic journey for Taylor Swift and her fans, showcasing her evolution as an artist while celebrating her extensive discography. The tour's setlist and surprises have kept fans engaged and thrilled at each show, making it a memorable experience for all in attendance.
