Taylor Swift fans who have been attending her “Eras Tour” may have missed some hidden Easter eggs that the singer-songwriter has revealed in her recently released “Eras Tour Book.” The 256-page hardcover book, priced at $39.99, contains previously unknown tidbits about the record-breaking concert run that has spanned five continents over 21 months. The book was exclusively available at Target stores and is part of Swift’s efforts to monetize her music beyond concerts and recordings.
Some interesting revelations from the book include the fact that Swift’s performances involve intricate details such as a crew member operating a platform she spins on during a song, dancers moving in a sequence that mimics a chessboard for a song called “Mastermind,” and Swift comfortably sitting inside a janitor’s cart for a short journey backstage. The book also reveals that the tour is meticulously planned and runs with military-like precision, always starting on time and featuring nearly four dozen songs in an average of three hours and 15 minutes.
Swift’s “Eras Tour” features songs from albums such as “Lover,” “Fearless,” “Red,” “Speak Now,” “reputation,” “folklore,” “evermore,” “1989,” “Midnights” and “The Tortured Poets Department.” The book concludes with Swift thanking her fans and hinting at more to come in the future, signing off with “See you next era.” The book is part of Swift’s larger efforts to engage with her fans and provide them with an inside look at her creative process and performances.
