much as i brick on taylor for being a boring artist, giving Basic a bad name, and occasionally being a self-obsessed capitalist miasma (esp in court eww), she earns her keep as an entertainer

Tbf to this discourse Taylor absolutely has a history of bilking the shit out of her fans

44 songs is insane. I'm not entirely sure why she doesn't just cut her setlist in half for preservation reasons. Yknow to save herself since she is human after all. Leave her alone sure but God damn. Even Nine Inch Nails' "final show" before that 2009 hiatus was shorter.

Fair enough but still holy crap I couldn't imagine going out there with a setlist longer than like. 15 at best. Gotta leave time for an opening act but even without that, 15 is usually over an hour which is a good place to end it imo

Yeah I've played 30 song setlists before and they're uh a little backbreaking even without any kind of stage show or dancing, that's that Nashville grindset ig

I saw NIN and JA on the "NIN/JA" tour and my brother got a shirt with a naked lady on it from the merch table and my mom was like you have to BURN that

Yeah I can understand trying to preserve yourself with a set that long. But that begs the question why make the set that long to begin with?

Speak for yourself. I'd happily jam the entire Psycho Synner discog on repeat until the day I die ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

“ Yknow to save herself since she is human after all”

You can be sarcastic all you want, Venin. But you say you’ve had a hard history of being dehumanised and treated poorly by people who want to force you into a particular box, so it seems hypocritical to be so easily and harshly assumptive of others in the same way you lament others having treated you. A caution: be careful not to be what you hate, lest you criticise yourself in others without realising, endlessly

There's no sarcasm in that comment. I mean if she's supposedly lip-syncing and holding back, perhaps the excessive length of the set isn't helping.

44 songs, if we assume 4 minutes per song with no breaks is around a 3 hour set. Possibly much longer if certain songs cross the 10 minute mark which some Taylor songs do. That doesn't really help if she's attempting to preserve her energy and give her fans the best show they can get. That's a length that should be for big special shows, I couldn't imagine doing that NIGHT AFTER NIGHT + jet-lag of touring from state to state.

I understand why that's supposedly happening, and I feel like the solution to it is to retool the tour so she doesn't have to be singing constantly for 3 hours. That comment wasn't sarcastic, I genuinely feel like she shouldn't have to spread herself so thin every night.

Alright, then my apologies for the misunderstanding. I misread that and that is my fault.
