We didn’t mention that Vienna was in the news all over the world for all the wrong reasons. But what reached us was the beauty, unity and kindness of all the fans of Taylor Swift. So we feel — of course, Taylor is in the States, she’s not here — but we’re here, so we have to do the best we can. So I don’t want to let anyone think that we don’t care about the Swifties in our band.
