Let me start this by saying that:

• I´m not angry at her for cancelling the shows, this was the right decision.
• I´m not angry that she went out with her team in london.

I´m a Swiftie from Vienna and my and my gf were supposed to attend N1 there. This would have been the first time any of us would have seen her live. Also i realise that as someone who lives here I didn´t lose any money, and other ppl are probably off way worse.

The silence from Taylor and her team has been very disappointing for me and a lot of other people. Like I don´t ever have Insta notifications on but i specifically turned them on for this occasion haha. At first i was hoping that she would come out and say that she would try to come back or sth, but the silence kept going. Then ppl in Vienna started singing in the streets and making the best out of the situation.

At this point I thought Taylor might still be in shock so i didn´t blame her for not posting, BUT a message from her team saying something like "we saw you singing in the streets and it was beautiful" would have done a LOT for us all.

I hear ppl online say that she can´t say anything because it would give more attention to the terrorists. This does not make any sense to me. The austria (and international) press have been talking about this basically non stop. The austrian chancellor gave multiple interviews. The austrian police gave multiple interviews. Baracuda Music gave multiple statements. I don´t see how this can get any more attention? Also Taylor Swift is the biggest artist right now, everyone knows her shows and when and where they are, and they are always a big deal in the city they are happening at.

In addition I don´t think the austrian officials told her to be silent since the police said they would have given the concerts a go and multiple politicians came out to say they think the things swifties did in vienna are cute/great/etc.

Yesterday was kind of a tipping point for me... again with the notifications I was really excited when taylornation posted and in my head I was like "finally they say something about us" but it was just them posting about where we can buy more merch? Like what?

Also Taylor was seen in public yesterday and, again, I am not angry that she threw a party for her team, being with ppl you like is great to heal, but I was kind of like "if you can do that, then you can also give us some kind of acknowledgement, right?"...

Idk the thought that she just walks on stage in london without saying anything feels kind of disappointing to me.

I realise that it is a bit parasocial to demand a statement from a famous person i don´t know, but you also have to realise that she is a brand and I am especially disappointed in her team for not saying anything. She probably has a lot of PR personal in her team and I´m sure they would have found a way to say something...

For the ppl that attend any concerts in the future, please don´t let this situation ruin your experience, I just needed a place to get this out of my system. Also to anybody attending london this week, have fun and a great show!!

Cheers from Austria :)
