Taylor Swift to Perform in Raleigh

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

On May 1st  Taylor Swift is performing in Raleigh at the RBC Center, with a guest appearance by Kellie Pickler.  This past year we have all watched Taylor Swift achieve her dreams and rise to the top right in front of our eyes.  She has sustained her position at the top of the charts, and has received more nominations and awards than most of her older competitors.    Her FEARLESS Tour’s concert in Madison Square Garden sold OUT within 60 seconds, not to mention the entire tour within a few minutes. Regardless of all the fame Taylor has recently achieved, she is able to stay strong and remain “fearless” like her current album.

Taylor says, “To me, fearless isn’t not having fears.  It’s not that you’re not afraid of anything.  I think that being fearless is having a lot of fears, but you jump anyway.”

The quote makes perfect sense coming from such a successful young woman, who literally had to jump head first if she wanted to reach all of her goals.  FEARLESS speaks of the realities of life.  It talks about love, family, friendships, and life in general.  She says that her songs are a part of her that she will never hold back on, and everything in her lyrics is real.

Give it up for Taylor Swift and for her “fearlessness” to reach her dreams, and enjoy the amazing performance!
