Taylor Swift suffered a tech glitch onstage when she kicked off the final run of her Eras Tour in Indianapolis, Indiana, on Friday.
In fan footage that has surfaced online, the 34-year-old pop star can be seen having to have her mic pack adjusted in the middle of a number.
Although the exact nature of the technical malfunction was unclear, the issue was serious enough that a crew member had to race onstage to address it.
However Taylor was undeterred, soldiering ahead with her song Lavender Haze as she lifted her sequined smock to let the man work.
After he was done, she sweetly said: ‘Thank you,’ and with the crisis successfully averted, the audience burst into cheers and applause, in a clip posted to X.
The superstar gave an epic performance for her first of three sold-out shows as she geared up to conclude her record-breaking world tour in the United States, before heading up to Canada.
About 69,000 concertgoers gathered at Lucas Oil Stadium to witness Swift perform her eras-spanning discography.
Meanwhile, her NFL star boyfriend Travis Kelce was all smiles during team practice with his Kansas City Chiefs teammates.
She kicked off her three-hour show with her mesmerizing blue-and-gold leotard and striking gold-to-silver ombré boots.
Later on, she changed into her black, silver and gold striped minidress with tassels to perform her first hits.
While performing The Man, she donned a sequin-covered black blazer with a silver pinstriped design.
She sported sparkly black boots and strummed her rhinestone-covered guitar with her lucky number on it.
Taylor was joined by her backup dancers as she sang to the record-breaking crowd at the Indy stadium.
While performing Speak now, she looked ethereal as she slipped into her lavender-colored gown and walked into the mist.
For her 1989 set, she donned a monochromatic pink version of her crop top and miniskirt look.
In the Folklore and Evermore segment of her concert, she looked striking in her scarlet dress with the flowing cape cascading around her.
‘You know, I was told some news before we took the stage tonight,’ she told the audience before performing the 10-minute version of All Too Well.
‘I was told that tonight you went ahead and broke the all-time attendance record for a concert in this stadium.’
For Indy’s surprise songs in the acoustic set on the first night, Swift performed a mashup of The Albatross from The Tortured Poets Department and Holy Ground from Red (Taylor’s Version) on the guitar.
She then performed a mashup of Cold As You and Exile on the piano.
During the acoustic set, she wore the dazzling red-and-blue dress she debuted last month in Miami.
For the Midnights era, she was bejeweled in a sparkly pale-pink shirt dress teamed with her bright purple fuzzy coat.
WNBA star Caitlin Clark and fellow Chiefs WAG Chariah Gordon joined the 69,000 fans at the Bejeweled hitmaker’s show.
Swift will perform her second and third concerts in Indianapolis on Saturday and Sunday with opening act Gracie Abrams.
The three-day run in Indiana will wrap up the 14-time Grammy-winning pop star’s final run in the US for her Eras Tour.
Prior to arriving in Indianapolis, she stopped at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami and Caesars Superdome in New Orleans.
Next up, Swift will be heading to two Canadian stadiums.
She will be performing at the Rogers Centre in Toronto from November 14 through 24, followed by BC Place Stadium in Vancouver — where she will wrap up The Eras Tour from December 6 through 8.
