23-5-2023 (Massachusetts) At Taylor Swift’s concert held at Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts on Sunday, an unexpected twist occurred when her piano seemed to have a mind of its own. Following a heavy downpour the previous night, the instrument started malfunctioning as Taylor sat down to perform one of the evening’s surprise song selections. Eerily, it began producing low notes without Taylor even touching the keys.
In a fan-captured video from the stage, Taylor explained the situation, saying, “Here’s what happened. So, it rained a lot last night—like a monsoon. To be exact, it rained for three and a half hours straight, and it just kept getting more and more rain. Literally, it was like a water park under the stage. You have no idea.”

Taylor further revealed that the prolonged exposure to water had caused her keyboard to break down, stating, “This has clearly broken my keyboard, ’cause it was like literally underwater. I didn’t know how any of the instruments were working last night. So, this is broken. I’m just gonna get the guitar. It’s gonna be fine.”
Amidst the unusual piano malfunction, an opportunistic fan who attended the waterlogged Saturday show apparently sought to profit from the experience. Reports suggest that the fan attempted to sell rain droplets collected from the concert on Facebook Marketplace for a staggering $250.
