When I was in 6th grade, I remember bringing out my iPod Touch on the bus ride home from school and digging around for earbuds buried in the small pocket of my backpack. I would listen to the same songs on repeat every day after school, and it almost became a ritual by the end of the year. It was such a simpler time back then, with nothing to worry about and a whole fifteen minutes to put my knees up against the bus seat, look out the window, and listen to some bops before I got home.

By: James McDonald

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.
