Taylor Swift‘s goodbye to The Eras Tour was a short and sweet one on social media following a trio of performances in Vancouver last weekend, the final three dates of a 149-show tour that grossed more than $2 billion in 2023-2024.

The “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” hitmaker uploaded a series of live concert photos — 17, to be exact, all of which appear to be from her three-day takeover of the Canadian city’s BC Place from Dec. 6-8 — on Wednesday (Dec. 11), three days after the very last Eras date. A brief message from Swift accompanied the pictures.

“It was rare. I was there. I remember it,” read the caption on Swift’s post. The words, pulled from her Red opus “All Too Well,” were crowned with a classic red heart emoji — instead of the white heart that’s often been attached to posts about her most recent release, the Billboard 200 chart-topping album The Tortured Poets Department and its expanded Anthology.

Swift’s pictures show group bows and hugs, a backstage shot with her band and dancers, triumphant performance shots, those last “August” twirls, her duet with opener Gracie Abrams and more.

There were no end-of-tour hijinks on the final weekend of The Eras Tour, at least none publicly displayed on the stage for the 60,000-per-night crowd to see. The culmination of this tour celebrated a fine-tuned level of showmanship, with all three nights professionally filmed for an unannounced project. The shows featured surprise song highlights like “Never Grow Up”/”The Best Day” (her parents were in attendance), “The Tortured Poets Department”/”Maroon” (this one presumably goes out to a Tortured Poets muse), and “Long Live”/”New Year’s Day”/”The Manuscript” (a closing night mashup of post-Eras reflection).

Billboard editors were on site to review all three shows. Find our thoughts on night one (written by me), night two (written by Danielle Pascual) and night three (written by Jason Lipshutz).

David Lynch, Iconic Filmmaker Behind ‘Twin Peaks’ & ‘Mulholland Drive,’ Dies at 78

His projects made appearances on the Billboard charts throughout the years, and he directed several music videos for artists including Nine Inch Nails and Moby.

David Lynch, the beloved filmmaker and director known for his dark, surrealist vision in the television classic Twin Peaks, as well as films including Mulholland Drive and Blue Velvet, has died. He was 78 years old.

Lynch’s family announced the news of his passing via a Facebook post on Thursday (Jan. 16). “It is with deep regret that we, his family, announce the passing of the man and the artist, David Lynch,” the statement reads alongside a photo of the artist playing a guitar. “We would appreciate some privacy at this time. There’s a big hole in the world now that he’s no longer with us. But, as he would say, ‘Keep your eye on the donut and not on the hole.’ It’s a beautiful day with golden sunshine and blue skies all the way.”
