Taylor Swift And The Eras Tour Rocks Miami
The ErasTour began more than a year ago in March of 2023 with Taylor Swift performing more than 152 shows worldwide.
As the mega tour winds down, it visited Hard Rock Stadium on Oct. 18-20.
A lot has changed since the start of the tour, most notably setlist changes.
During her tour, Taylor released her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department. Seven songs from the album were included in the tour’s second leg, including hits like Fortnight and I Can Do It With A Broken Heart. To accommodate, six songs have been permanently removed.
However, Miami saw a special addition to the setlist: Florida!! from The Tortured Poets Department. Fans speculated it would be a surprise song at one of the three Miami nights, but it was a full performance with new visuals, choreography, and Florence Welch was a special guest.
Miami also saw many new outfits; the most shocking being the new Reputation body suit. Swift wore a custom Roberto Cavalli bodysuit adorned with gold snakes instead of the classic red. The Fearless era also saw a new outfit with an iteration of the silver fringe dress adorned with blue detailing along the front.
The surprise song selection not only saw new outfits but a newly established format.
Typically, Swift has performed two different surprise acoustic songs, one on the guitar and one on the piano. Many fans might have a favorite song that’s not on the setlist, however with the new format their chances of hearing it are higher.
Miami saw a guitar mashup of Tim McGraw and Timeless, and a piano mashup of This Is Me Trying and Daylight on night one, a guitar mashup of Should’ve Said No and I Did Something Bad, and a piano mashup of loml and White Horse on night two, and a guitar mashup of Out of the Woods and All You Had To Do Was Stay, and a piano mashup of Mirrorball and Guilty as Sin? on night three.
So, what can fans expect from the remaining shows of The Eras Tour?
They can definitely expect more mashups, outfits, and if Florence Welch in Miami and Sabrina Carpenter in New Orleans are signs, more surprise guests.
Swift has also been known to announce album releases during her concerts, so there might be an announcement for Reputation (Taylor’s Version) or Taylor Swift (Taylor’s Version) by the end of the tour.
