I don’t think she ever should have agreed to perform somewhere where concert goers couldn’t even have water. I don’t think she’s fully responsible, but I think she was definitely negligent and that accounts for something.
People insist that that water was too expensive and yeah it was expensive. But so is Taylor's concert. If it's that hot buy some water. People were getting burns from the heat, going to the medical tent, and then going BACK to their seats to get burned again. That's cult level behavior.
As someone who has been to music festivals in Texas summers, it's important to have water stations. 60,000 people all need water (in a record heatwave no less) and the best way to do that is to sell it? No, you set up multiple water stations and let people bring their own empty bottles to fill. Or hand bottles at security as they come in.
Not necessarily totally blaming Taylor Swift, but her team should have been more aware of the venue before partnering with them.
