Saw Taylor Swift in concert for the 2011 Speak Now tour.
The show was absolutely incredible. Highlights:
Fearless (Acoustic). Superb rendition and done in a style I had never seen/heard before…blown away by her talent.
Haunted. By far the most visually impressive and a great performance. The song begins with three huge bells rising from below the stage, played to create an incredible build-up to the start of the song, and when the refrain hits, performers drop from inside the bells from elastic rope…could not believe how awesome this was.
Long Live: very well done, and the stage fireworks put a perfect touch to an already great song (which is even better live)
Our Song, Fifteen: these pair of songs impressed me just because they were performed so well. Amazing.
Overall, probably the best concert that I've ever been to thus far. Visually pleasing and she is such an amazing singer and performer. "The Agency" is at the same high caliber as she is, and I had an amazing time…wanted her to keep playing and playing. Setlist: (for future reference):

Openers were Hunter Hayes and NeedToBreathe…Hayes is pretty talented and I enjoyed listening to him…NeedToBreathe was good, but didn't really catch me. I had not heard of either artist before attending.
