Cairi: Hey, Newsround, I'm Cairi and I'm about to watch Taylor Swift! I live in Edinburgh, and it's the first time that Taylor Swift has played a show here.
Children: Hi, Newsround!
Cairi: I'm so excited. But first, let's rewind. Hey, come in! To prepare for tonight, I've been camping outside Murrayfield Stadium, listening to her albums all day, trading bracelets with people. These are my favourite bracelets because this one's 'Fearless', and my favourite album's 'Fearless'. And this one, I love this one so much cos of all the beads, and this one's 'Folklore'. Anyway, it's nearly showtime and I need to make sure I'm ready for it. But before we head in, I'm speaking to another Swiftie who's already been lucky enough to see the Eras tour.
Cairi: Hey, Nina, can you describe the Eras tour in three words?
Nina: Incredible, magical and loud.
Cairi: What was your favourite memory from the Eras tour?
Nina: Probably, I'd say, the very beginning when Tay got revealed from this, like, platform in the middle of the stage. It was just great.
Cairi: Let's hear what everyone else thought of the show. Did you have a good time?
Fan one: Yeah, it was amazing, I loved it.
Fan two: Ah!
Cairi: What was your favourite bit in the Eras tour?
Fan three: Definitely when she started to, like, sing, 'Tortured Poets Department'. That's my favourite album.
Fan four: I really loved 'Reputation'.
Fan two: When Taylor played piano. I like piano, because I also play piano.
Cairi: Could you tell us a bit more about your bracelet?
Fan four: Yeah, so actually I've made quite a lot for tonight and I've made some, lots, for care homes too. So I went to a couple this week and I'm going to some more next week.
Cairi: That's so cool! Would you like to trade bracelets?
Fan four: Of course! 'Fearless'.
Cairi: Thank you so much. 'Fearless' is my favourite album.
