Taylor Swift performs her first-ever headlining stadium concert at LSU

As unlikely as it seems, Taylor Swift had never headlined a concert at a football stadium until tonight, when she performed a LSU’s Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The twenty year old country pop singer has been a sales chart phenomenon over the past couple of years but had previously been limited to arenas. Tiger Stadium has an official football game capacity of 92,400 people; that number could be higher could be higher or lower for a concert depending on field capacity and the number of obstructed view seats not made available. For her part, Swift remarked that before the show, she and her bandmates “could be found taking pictures on the stage like tourists.” She went on to sum it up with “It was just.. Wow.”

Taylor Swift is in the midst of an extended U.S. tour which will next see her in Washington, DC on June 1st and 2nd for a pair shows at the Verizon Center (perhaps ironic, as Swift herself is known to be an iPhone user and therefore AT&T customer), ahead of another stadium show in Foxboro, Massachusetts at Gilette Stadium, home of the New England Patriots. She’s also doing a charity gig in her hometown Nashville, Tennessee, on June 22nd in aid of flooding victims, a cause to which she’s already donated half a million dollars.
