FolkLover1989 Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 The backlash for not including SEA is insane everywhere. I saw so many Indian reels feeling sad. People are particularly sad because of Philippines, India and China exclusion. Those are her country. We love her so much
ATRL Moderator Azulito Posted June 21, 2023 ATRL Moderator Posted June 21, 2023 The Southeast Asian snub makes no sense. If you’re gonna go through the effort of taking the stage to Singapore, why not take it to Kuala Lumpur or Jakarta as well? Bangkok and Manila are a little farther, but still very possible. She has a gap after Singapore so maybe she’ll announce more cities later.
Life Savers Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 Taylor is a businesswoman. I'm a stan but keep it real, she's not going to do a concert just because of "loyalty" Not to mention there were likely cities/countries in Asia that could have happened but didn't because negotiations fell through, like in Chile. 2 1
FolkLover1989 Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 Taylor is definitely generating more revenue per year from India and PH than Japan atp but here we are Does she know how expensive it is to travel to Japan? She has many young fans , we can't afford this rn. This is insane Eras Tour is once in a generation tour , sometime Taycapitalist need to go

But she paid us dust.
FolkLover1989 Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 The funniest thing is , She didn't even consider India. Like what's the problem with India? We could have filled 6 dates by ourselves and that too with 100k capacity each. She would have made enough profit

It’s 9k nominal. And it what it matters since this money would be taken out of the country
iam1925 Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 I hate this puta. Why is she paying dust her biggest supporters (Southeast asian fans) since her Fearless days? When she's not yet a global pop superstar and just a mere country singer, these fans are already onboard with her. Why is she ignoring the rest of Asia, Singapore and Japan are not enough! Isn't she aware without the Midnights streams from the Philippines (2nd biggest after the US) and the rest of the SEA countries she will not be able to break Spotify's streaming record? Many Asian fans are disappointed! 1
Prismee Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 it sucks for us Asians but honestly there’s an explanation for most of them Malaysia and Indonesia - Vigilante **** and YNTCD performances would be banned and i guess she didn’t want to compromise Philippines - no stadium China - politics so i guess the biggest snubs would be Thailand and India, those could’ve happened in theory. South Korea doesn’t really use her but i guess with her demand she could still sell out a stadium. but yeah that’s it.

She would have made enough profit Unfortunately, its the reason why India gets skipped by basically every Western artist. There isn't enough confidence that the tickets would sell for enough to cover the cost of shipping all of Taylor's production and setting it up. India is in a bad place since the promoters there don't really have experience or connection with the promoters big western artists uses. They don't have the expertise even to set up Taylor's stage and production (local riggers set up Taylor's stage in each spot, she doesn't bring them with her). Basically, stadium tours require a full pre-existing infrastructure that doesn't exist in India. Its not something Taylor can create herself and have concert dates that would break even.

Go speak about it on twitter, make noise on newspaper, music promotors etc. Also if she were to tour there, then you would be complaining about the high cost of the tickets. 8 minutes ago, MardinBeksloy said: Her latest show in these two countries which is Red show: Jakarta: $1,481,473 / 8,130 - 182$ average Berlin: $755,006 / 10,350 - 72.9$ average What do you say now???

India can be the capital of technology of the world at this point. Of course they have the expertise to build the “stage”.

From insiders, she was negotiating for dates in Indonesia and Thailand but the negotiations failed. Same thing happened in Chile. But basically, the main issue, is that SEA she needs to ship her stuff between dates which really increases costs. In Europe, since she can transport stuff easily on train and truck, she can afford to play dates that gross less since the transportation is cheaper and quicker.
Taylor fanboy Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 It’s obviously her touring team’s fault. She got lucky with Ticketmaster US fiasco but this one is all on AEG.
Bosque Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 Is it confirmed that more Asia dates won’t be added? There is a 2 month break after Singapore

Even I am going to register They said Singapore is only stop in SEA, so they will alow us for sure

Robert Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 I get that some countries like Indonesia and Malaysia would be difficult because of religion but she definitely could have done Thailand or China or Taiwan. She could do a US size tour in China and it would sell out and they have amazing infrastructure.
nasa Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 What in the world would make you think she's coming to India Was never happening in a million years. And apparently the Philippines don't even have a stadium? WHAT were y'all expecting 1
