The best seats in the house- Not wear you think!
While In Nashville on Vacation this weekend, I was lucky enough to find out that for Taylor Swift’s Final Dress Rehearsal on Saturday, for her new Speak Now tour, had been opened up to her fans, where all proceeds would go to help tornado victims. I got tickets directly across from the stage, in the back on the fourth row, where you could see the show great but you are so far away you have to look a the big screens to see her face.
At the beginning of the show, my husband pointed out this tree hanging from the ceiling about at the very end of the auditorium, just a little bit in front of us. We figured it has something to do with the show but just brushed it off. About three quarters of the way through the show we see the tree start to come down in front of us. My husband points out a microphone as it’s placed on the ground and secured. Is she going to come back here and sing, he asks? No way! I’ve never heard of a musician walking off the stage to the back of the auditorium to sing to her fans in the back! Then as soon as the song ended, sure enough, Taylor walks down off the stage, surrounded by security, and makes her way though her fans in General Admission, to the back of the auditorium, and up the stairs to the tree, placed 10 feet away from us! She sits down with her guitar and begins to sing! I about died, I had never ever been this close to a celebrity, and I was so close I could see her perfectly with no help from the big screens placed above her stage! We were directly eye level to her!! She serenaded the crowd from the tree through two and half songs before making her way back up to the stage. Amazing!!
So if you are going to be seeing Taylor Swift’s Speak Now Tour, be sure to get your seats in the back of the auditorium, directly across from the stage, and sit with in the first 10 rows! You will not be disappointed!
