That’s kinda like how my mind works. When I hear music now that I listened to in the 70’s and 80’s I see images and memories of people at that time.

but presumably you never suffered from total amnesia regarding the events, right after they occurred, so its not really how your mind works if you get specific. We are not talking drug use here.
Who’s to say what chemicals the concert goers consumed before and during the event?
Over whelmed stimulated senses could “crash” the nervous system and cause a blackout, even without drugs.
Yes it can easily be they are tweaking some frequencies that freezes and overrides the brains own spectrum of frequencies, kind of like “pausing” the brain like those under hypnotization say they feel; If they are told they just cannot remember the number “8” they say they know something is wrong when they are counting, they just cant remember it for their life.
This is why I posted the Em song where they say " there’s a hidden rhyme of the month deep in the beat",suggesting ( to me at least) that there are some 7-8 hertz thing going on underneath the drums and bass, that you pick up unconsciously.
There’s the man who slaughtered his whole family who swore he "just listened to eminems “3am” ( i even believe he said it was around 3am) and he couldn’t remember a thing before it was over.
its easy- the average Taylor Swift fan is a 12 year old girl with her mom accompanying her.
I’ve been overcome at a concert on acid and I fainted, but I never got amnesia. Not sure why you are pushing back so hard on this, its unusual. The reporting is unusual as well.
She’s the top moneymaker in the pop culture industry. Press releases drive sales whether true or not. Got to keep the machine running.

I agree there could be a “sensationalist” element but it’s not a great bet for promotion…and not worth just making up for several reasons -
- Target audience is the most physically fearful generation of kids and mom’s in history, afraid of peanuts, concrete on playgrounds, contacts without masks, etc… Trying to appeal to this fanbase with the idea that a Swift concert is a reckless adventure that could result in a mental aberration is easily a bet that could backfire, esp on social media, very risky and unlikely, and also against the Swift brand
- Because the coverage places blame on the dynamic show elements such as lighting, sound, etc…it could result in calls to change the show - very expensive to do during a tour juggernaut, and not something likely to be promoted.
- Swift ticket sales are in great shape and need no risky promotional strategy with potentially huge negative risks to keep sales going. They know parents want their kids to have a safe concert experience, not a mind bending mental trip.
So I don’t buy this is just a bizarre promotional strategy. Especially as we are not hearing that much about it actually. Some initial reports then … not much.

UPDATE: So today, listening to Daniel on AJ, talking about hidden technology…it occurred to me - Swift concerts on the “Eras” tour could be testing grounds, using the audiences as literal guinea pigs. Testing what? What if they are testing some kind of tech to help them pull off the UFO Op?
I went to the subReddit about this concert tour and was going to cut and paste maybe five or six comments here - one after the other - “yeah I felt the same thing and thought I was insane- didn’t feel like I was there even tho I sang to it for three hours” “I remembered nothing, so glad to hear others say it” “same experience for me, very surreal” and on and on… there are dozens and maybe even a hundred of these comments - just read through Reddit - Dive into anything
I get the feeling that something odd is really going on. I’ve just never heard of this kind of dissociation going on, with people that are not acid dropping hippies at Woodstock, far from it - these are mostly young women and girls, teens and twenties, and their parents and relatives, not some experimental substance taking mind trippers. I was beginning to think its just young overexcited kids without much experience with concerts and live music, but reading through these comments, one after another after another, about how they thought something was weird and are so glad to see it was not just them…it makes me wonder. Is there an experimental “joy beam” that is being put into the venue? A dissociation frequency that’s being tested?
Some of these people, quite a few, say they would not remember a thing after the music started if it weren’t for the photos and video they took to remind them. One of them said it plainly - “I definitely feel like there are some songs or moments where I just blacked out, especially songs from 1989 like Style and Wildest Dreams. I feel like every reel I watch on Instagram I’m slowly putting the pieces back together like ‘hey, yeah I WAS THERE’”
and
“I went to Nashville N3 and I feel sooo guilty for not remembering any of it. Between the 4 hr delay, the mad dash to our seats since we didn’t actually know when the show was starting, and the lightning during the show my brain just shut down. Everyone keeps saying it’s a show that will be remembered forever, and yet I remember practically none of it. Thank you for this post, it makes me feel less insane.”
and
"Ok, so I thought it was just me.
I remember bits and pieces, but I don’t remember whole arse songs she apparently performed. I was def there, but I have zero recollection of most of it."
and
"YESSSS!!!
I even realized it was happening during the concert, like I was living it and felt that it was kind of an out of body experience? And I was forcing myself to be there, breathe in the moment, FEEL IT, and I thought I did but at the same time, did I?? really?"
there’s so many more…the section of the concert for the album “1989” is mentioned by several as a place they specifically couldn’t recall.
Finally, I just had to add this exchange, which i found hilarious and related to so well-
“ME TOO! I went to the Glendale one and I couldn’t remember the first half at all! Still can’t really (although watching all the live streams helps lol) my family thought I was crazy!”
“Don’t get fing drunk or get stoned before the concert! Taylor is noodles to the metal concerts of the 80s and we remember everything including doing acid during a Pink Floyd concert or a GRATEFUL Dead concert!!! Snowflakes 
”
“I wasn’t drunk or stoned sweetie. You can go ahead and crawl back into the hole you crawled out of though!”
LOL i relate to the old rocker so well! I even said above in the thread I passed out on acid at an early 80s concert in Orlando Fl, but didn’t have amnesia about any of it! But its not that they are snowflakes, I am becoming more and more inclined to think - something is being done at this highly expensive concert show to promote an out of body, dissociative experience in the mass spectators, and it is being very pointedly blamed on lights and sounds, but there must be more to it than that.
American Journal weighs in - with some similar take on it, especially that pretending amnesia of a concert is not unusual does not fly. Also there is an adult diaper factor apparently lol
There is also mention of some government experimental work at concerts as far back as Pink Floyd? has anyone heard of this before?

Which government are you asking about?
Are you asking a question? I was describing some of the reporting at the link I had shared. You’d have to watch the entire report at the link I guess to understand, but I’m not sure a particular government was overtly named.
Yes, that was a question.
that is where it is mentioned. If you won’t watch the vid, nothing I can do to answer you.
I did watch that, they didn’t mention any particular government.
Was asking about your question to everyone about if anyone had heard of “governmental experimental work” being done at concerts as far back as Pink Floyd, I haven’t but maybe some other people have.
That’s a British band but Taylor is American, so didn’t know if you were asking about a specific government or not, sounds like you were not so you already answered all I had asked.
Would have been better if I had asked “are you asking about a specific government,” answer: no, unless all governments are just part of a single one world government now.
I think most people assume that the US spook apparatus leads on these type of nefarious, secret, illegal experimental programs, if indeed it existed. It’s a throw away comment, but once raised, given what we know they’ve done already, seems possible to have occurred.
Thanks for unraveling that.

Yeah there are well know things like MK ultra that were U.S. based, I don’t deny those existed.
People being experimented on against their will at a concert I haven’t heard too much about that, other than the music itself being inlayed with subliminal frequencies to manipulate their consciousness I have heard of the music industry doing that. Music producers are supposed to be regulated by legitimate governments to not deceive and manipulate people, but apparently the u.s. government doesn’t do that anymore if they ever did.
The light systems can be used for mind control, then also if people are taking drugs at concerts that can be a factor. So with that this may be people volunteering to take drugs, but possibly not with a concept of how those are being used against them or how they are even manufactured.

Being in a huge venue with thousands of others, is in itself a stressful situation, add in the pounding music vibes, dizzying lighting effects and puff, instant zap to the human nervous system. Those on recreational drugs get a double dose.

I get all that, but when I read their comments, again and again, as I illustrated in my comment above, it looked like something different by enough of a degree that it sounds like this generation either dissociates easier than former generations did, or something is promoting it.
