Taylor Swift posted some of her thoughts about the final night of her recent Nashville shows, which was delayed due to lightning and an intense rain storm. Because of this, the crowd had been kept inside the stadium as part of a shelter-in-place order. Still, Swift didn’t cancel and instead took the stage — playing until around 1 a.m. in the weather, once it was deemed safe to do so.
While the openers might not have gone on, Swift also treated the crowd to a guest appearance from Aaron Dessner, as the two performed the Midnights track “Would’ve Could’ve Should’ve” during the surprise section.
“WELL,” Swift wrote on social media. “We had our first rain show of The Eras Tour. And it was SO MUCH FUN. The dancers, band, crowd and I all pretty much turned into little kids joyfully jumping in puddles all night. I wanted to thank the crowd again for waiting for the weather to clear. And my amazing crew for keeping the stage, lighting and equipment all dry and working so we could play. That was a late, great night I won’t forget.”
