Who Opened for Taylor Swift in Houston? A Tale of Two Openers
So, you're wondering who had the honour (or maybe just the gigantic pressure) of warming up the crowd for Taylor Swift in Houston? Well, buckle up, Swifties, because this is a story of two very different acts.
Beabadoobee: The Indie Rock Darling
First up, we have the delightful Beabadoobee. This indie rock gem brought her dreamy, lo-fi vibes to the Houston crowd. If you were there, you probably left the show humming along to "Cologne" or "The Perfect Pair." Imagine going from singing about heartbreak and bad coffee to screaming your lungs out for "Shake It Off." Talk about a rollercoaster of emotions!
Beabadoobee might have seemed like an odd choice to some, but her music is actually pretty relatable. Plus, she's got that cool, effortlessly cool factor that's hard to resist. So, props to Taylor for giving her a platform to shine.
Gracie Abrams: The Rising Star
Then there's Gracie Abrams, the daughter of that Abrams (you know, the one who directed Star Wars). She's got some serious pipes on her, and her songs are like diary entries set to music. If you're into raw emotion and vulnerable lyrics, Gracie's your girl.
Now, imagine going from Gracie's intimate, stripped-down performances to Taylor's full-on, stadium-shaking spectacle. That's quite a jump! But hey, it's all part of the experience, right?
So, who stole the show?
Well, that's a tough one. Beabadoobee brought the indie rock energy, while Gracie delivered heart-wrenching ballads. It's like comparing apples and oranges, or Taylor Swift and, well, anyone else. Both acts brought something unique to the table, and ultimately, they were just the warm-up for the main event.
How to Survive a Taylor Swift Concert with Your Sanity Intact
- How to manage your expectations: Remember, you're not actually going to meet Taylor Swift. No matter how hard you scream.
- How to dress for the occasion: Glitter, sequins, and anything sparkly is encouraged. But comfortable shoes are a must.
- How to sing along without losing your voice: Practice your favorite lyrics beforehand, and maybe bring a water bottle.
- How to survive the merch line: Patience is a virtue, Swifties. And maybe bring a good book.
- How to recover after the concert: Lots of sleep, hydration, and probably some retail therapy.
