Taylor Swift - Aviva Stadium June 2024

Can none of you hear or see the band performing the songs on the tour? They’re to the left and right of the stage. They’re hardly playing instruments with no sound for 3.5 hours for fun? I was at Rep tour, it’s 100% live on the night. Not sure how anyone could make the case that this is ‘lip syncing’ with a backing track…

For the tour movie, corrective technology was used I think to make her voice more in tune and perfect sounding as I’ve watched tons of her livestreams and prefer the raw live sound. Maybe you’re referring to the bad blood chorus. Black space is definitely live too - you can hear the breathing.

Cannot wait for Dublin.

Im not sure you understand what a backing track is or what it does.

Nobody is claiming the band isn't playing or that she doesn't sing. She sings a lot during the show, the backing track supports her. Every act like her does, it's not an insult. It makes for a better show.

In that second clip, its pretty obvious which bits she is singing.

She is singing live the bits where she is stationary or walking slowly, any of the bits she is dancing and walking with the dancers is backing track vocals and her mic is off.

Concerts should be mostly live, if people like Springsteen at the age of 74 can do 3 hour plus shows and sing every word then people half his age should be able to.

Modern touring is all about maximising revenue though, and it would be too demanding for acts to actually sing for 3 hours plus 4 nights in a row like Taylor is without a lot of backing tracks and trickery going on.

Shania Twain an artist who lost her voice many years ago, and had throat surgery recently completed a Uk and Ireland tour.

8 shows in 11 days, you think she is singing all the show lol.

Springstein puts on far less of a show than TS. Ones a production and an experience where it's impractical to sing every word live. Comparing the two is comparing apples and oranges. Yeah, they're both fruit but very bloody different.

Do you know how a backing track works? They pre record it with a live band, prob during rehearsals, so her breathing will be picked up too. No one is saying it’s studio vocals. She is not singing most of Karma. It’s not an issue for me but saying she is singing 100% is not true.

Most pop artists do it, especially those who dance a lot.

Wrongway1985 · 30-04-2024 02:26PM

Does she sing live of course but to suggest all her vocals are 100% live is wickedly gullible seems to be a trend with the "Swiftie".

Man Vs ManUre · 30-04-2024 02:31PM

She sings Enchanted and All too well fully live, and you won’t hear anyone sing them better. But my favourite is probably Long Live and she fully sings that too.

Man Vs ManUre · 02-05-2024 07:49AM

I wonder will Taylor sing ‘You’ll never walk alone’ at the anfield show?? That would be awesome if she closes the night with that. She can even wear the new Lpool home shirt when singing it.

Capone222 · 05-05-2024 07:25PM

Does anyone know/remember what sections the €150 seats were? Are they nosebleeds?

No they were lower level, good seats.

Nosebleeds were ~ 85 euro I think.

Some upper stand tickets were €120 each also.

Keggers74 · 08-05-2024 03:37PM

Anyone know if you need a code to be able to see/buy resale tickets for the Dublin shows on ticketmaster? I registered last year at the time of the original ticket sale and ended up on the wait list, but didn't end up with a code. I've checked and refreshed ticketmaster for resale tickets countless times over the last 6 months and never seen a single resale ticket listed, but wondering now if they aren't showing up for me because I haven't entered a code.

Resale tickets can be listed so I’d say it’s just that tickets go quite fast when they do pop up. There should be plenty of tickets floating round over the next 2 months

CruelSummer · 08-05-2024 05:53PM

Does anyone know when the tickets become transferable or when you can give them to someone else?

Man Vs ManUre · 10-05-2024 08:50AM

How dare she drop Long Live from the set list!! Only 1 song from Speak now is just wrong. I would have Sparks fly, Back to December, Speak now, Enchanted, Long Live and I can see you on it. Taylor need to do 4hr concerts ffs.

Man Vs ManUre · 10-05-2024 09:05AM

I am going to insist that Disney+ update my Eras tour with the live TTPD songs from Paris. And they need to do this asap.

crl84 · 10-05-2024 11:10AM

Much more annoyed about The Archer being dropped.

CruelSummer · 10-05-2024 04:29PM

For me Tolerate it was an amazing performance and song. Loved her acoustic LOML last night.

I didn’t see it but I’d prefer if she dropped the acoustic set, it’s too dull compared to the rest. Agree tolerate it was great live, so was tlgad and ttds from folklore/evermore and shudnt be dropped. Its hard to say what she shud drop as all her songs are so great.

Man Vs ManUre · 10-05-2024 06:44PM

She need to do mbobhft’s and guilty as sin also.

Man Vs ManUre · 11-05-2024 12:44PM

She needs to add ttpd and the bolter to the setlist also. I wud drop down bad and fortnight.

Man Vs ManUre · 11-05-2024 02:46PM

She needs to add the black dog to the set list for sure.

How does one get a code?

You needed to have applied last July for the verified fan thing.

Extra codes will probably be sent out to people waitlisted, thats whats happening in other countries.

So I'm late to the party then?

sarachryan · 13-05-2024 10:32AM

Is there any real possibility of of getting genuine tickets for any of the shows?

Zardoz · 13-05-2024 10:47AM

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/122124468#Comment_122124468

Yes

Oh yes, for paris they released extra tickets a week before gigs, but you needed a code. Plus a lot of people wanted to sell/transfer just days before the gig.

Man Vs ManUre · 15-05-2024 01:00PM

She needs to do full version of the black dog. Could it be time to drop the 10mins all too well or go back to its original?? She could have headlined Glastonbury and just did a totally different setlist/staging to the eras tour.

How do you get a code?
