Taylor Swift gives a shoutout to Cardiff concert crowd on Instagram

Taylor Swift is currently lighting up the European leg of her Eras tour, and the global superstar took to Instagram on Thursday to express her excitement about the energy of the crowd in Cardiff, Wales.

“Cardiff!! My first time playing in Wales and that was truly out of control in the best way – looking out into that massive, bouncing, dancing sea of people… I’ll never forget it,” she captioned a series of photos from the show, in many of which Swift is seen smiling ear to ear. “I’m absolutely living for these UK crowds. Next up: our weekend at Wembley!! See you tomorrow London!”

During the Cardiff show, Swift surprised her fans with a special song set that included the live debut of The Anthology edition of Tortured Poets‘ “I Hate It Here” paired with a melancholic piano mashup with Folklore bonus track “The Lakes” at Principality Stadium.

Prior to her piano performance, Swift delighted the audience with an acoustic mashup of Lover‘s “I Forgot That You Existed” and Reputation‘s “This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things,” leading to laughter from the crowd as she struggled to sing, “And here’s to you, ’cause forgiveness is a nice thing to do,” finishing it off with, “I can’t even say it with a straight face.” Interestingly, fans noted that Swift’s song choice coincided with June 18, which also happens to be Scooter Braun’s birthday.

The Eras Tour is now gearing up for its next stop at Wembley Stadium in London for three consecutive nights, from June 21-23. Fans in the UK are eagerly anticipating what surprises Swift has in store for them next on this incredible musical journey.
