Raleigh 9/13 Part 2!

That “Mama Swift” Experience…
When I got to my seat I had another freak out… I was 2 FEET AWAY from the sound booth where Mama Swift would be sitting. I was also 5 FEET AWAY from B Stage. Another amazing thing was, I was seat #4, and in my row there was no seat #1-3… So I had an aisle seat and an amazing amount of freaking out and spastic dancing space. How does that even happen? Miracles. Miracles were starting to happen. A few minutes later, yet another request for a group picture. Loved it.
Woooooonderstruck!...
After my freak out and mini photo session, I ran into Wonderstruck guy! I saw him the day before and he recognized me. He stood with me and talked with me for a few minutes and I told him how much I was freaking out right now. We talked about Club Red and he said I had an amazing view of B Stage and Mama Swift. I told him I was scared she wasn’t going to have a club red because she had one the night before in Greensboro and she had to be in Virginia the next night. We talked and talked and he said he wished he could stay back there with me. He asked me if I thought the lady behind me wanted a pit pass. I was like, “UH yeah probably! If someone offered me a pit pass I would flip!” Wonderstruck guy ended up trading his PIT PASS with the lady behind me so that he could hang out with me because he said I was awesome! So cool.
American Woman…
It was fan cam time and I was having a blast dancing around like a crazy person. I had some pretty bizarre dance moves, I have to admit. “I crashed my car into a bridge. I DON’T CAREEE, I LOVE ITTTT.” Like what the heck is that song? I didn’t know any words to that song until these concerts. Now I have it down packed. I tried to make the final decisions on what lights I was going to have on and blinking, and how I was going to wear my littler heart sign. I wanted to wear it but it was super bright, and I loved how my homemade t-shirt looked with the lights under it, so I didn’t want to cover that up! I asked Wonderstruck guy what his opinion was and he said I should go all out and wear it. So we came up with the idea to wear it around my waist. So I untied the ribbon and retied it around my waist so the it hung in front of me. So smart.
“American Woman” came on and yet again…. Freaking out time. I saw Mama Swift walking to her seat but I was too busy freaking out because Taylor Alison Swift was about to be on stage!
I couldn’t breatheee when the song ended. I started jumping up and down and freaking out and screaming. I was so excited. The opening for State of Grace started just as if had the night before. Again, I got chills! The Taylor silhouette… OMG. What is air?
Captivated by you baby, like a fireworks show!...
When the red curtain lifted I screamed so loudly. I cried even harder than I did the first night. Too much perfection in one week. I can’t. Taylor was flawless as usual. I kept my eyes glued to her the entire concert. Song after song I took in every single detail. This was my last night of the red tour, ever. I had to remember it perfectly.
I Don’t Know About You…
When Taylor made her way to the B-stage during 22, it felt unreal. She was walking up the stairs and it was like I could almost reach out and touch her; less than 10 feet away! It was so amazing. I was bawling my eyes out and screaming “OMG” and “I love you, Taylor!” every chance that I could. I sang my heart out exactly as I had the entire night and even the night before. I still couldn’t believe how close I was to B-stage. Having my full attention on Tay and her performance, I wasn’t paying much attention to who was watching me, making fun of me, laughing, or whose toes I was stepping on!
Taylor had just been unhooked as she made her way to the main stage. I heard someone say behind me, “Is this the one?” But my wide eyes were still fixed on Taylor. Not even a few seconds later, I was startled by a tap on my right shoulder...
Are You REaDy?...
