I wouldn't see Taylor live again either. On one level I'd like too, but her audiences, IMO, are awful. I've been to many concerts with passionate fanbases... Bruce Springsteen, Britney, Gaga, etc. Taylor's show was the only one where I struggled to hear her because her fans were excessively loud. Even on clips I've heard of her live albums they're too loud. That fanbase lacks self-awareness. Do her fans want to hear Taylor play or are they paying to sing at the top of their lungs for 2-3 hours in the same room as Taylor?
For Britney fans it can be a bit painful to see peer artists who had what Britney wasn't allowed to have... the privilege of not being human trafficked, more consistent creative control, better management, not be abused to the point of losing most or all interest in performing. From 'Glory' we know that what Britney is capable of is still excellent, but her life circumstances were particularly gruesome. We don't know if Britney will ever release another album again, whereas we know artists like Taylor and Beyoncé will release more albums that the fans will be happy with. It's sad how it played out.
