Her piano had other plans for the evening.
Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour has been cheekily referred to as the “Errors Tour,” given the many bloopers the singer has tallied up along the way. On July 14, she had another mishap at her second sold-out concert in Milan, Italy.
At the performance, she treated fans to not one, but two surprise mashups. However, when she began performing a rendition of Reputation’s “Getaway Car” and 1989’s “Out of the Woods,” her piano appeared to malfunction.
As captured in a now-viral TikTok, the Grammy winner lifted the piano’s lid and told the crowd, “We have finally broken this thing.” A crew member then rushed on stage to help. According to a fan-posted video on X (formerly Twitter), Swift later said, “Oh, I did it,” as she closed the lid and continued playing.
Fans quickly praised the singer’s handling of the onstage mishap. “She always handles things like a total pro,” one fan wrote on TikTok. Another commented, “Thank god she fixed the piano in time for the secret songs!”
Meanwhile, one user also joked that she’s “never getting rid of the Errors Tour allegations.”
While performing “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” at her June 30 show in Dublin, Ireland, Swift was standing on a stage riser, which failed to lower back down, leaving her stranded above the main stage. As seen in viral videos, backup dancer Jan Ravnik came to the rescue, lifting her down from the platform.
And on the final night of her Eras Tour stops in Stockholm, Sweden, the singer paused the show to tend to an issue with her blue wrap dress, which had tangled up during the Tortured Poets Department segment. “Talk amongst yourselves,” she told the crowd as a crew member swiftly unraveled the garment to an eruption of cheers.
Some fans have speculated that mistakes have been intentional, like at her June 22 concert in London. During a moment when Swift glared at the camera, a large screen froze with a creepy black-and-white filter. Folks speculated it was a hint that Reputation (Taylor’s Version) might be on the way, describing the glitch as “Reputation era-coded.”
