And he spent last night issuing a gentle reminder to everyone to please be kind. As in, he quite literally posted a photo of the lights from his recent Colorado show with drones spelling out “please be kind.”

During a recent show in Minneapolis (and ahead of performing “Dear John” for the first time in 11 years), Taylor straight-up asked fans not to come for John Mayer—without mentioning him by name.
“I get to stand on the stage every single night of this tour and watch the most beautiful things happen,” she said. “Like, I watch you guys make friends with each other. I watch you bond. I watch you to give each other friendship bracelets. I see so many beautiful interactions happen and I hear so many stories about friends that were made at these shows and I watch it happen every night. It’s the most unbelievable thing to watch. And so I was hoping to ask you that as we lead up to this album coming out, I would love for that kindness and that gentleness to extend on to our internet activities.”
She went on to add, “I’m 33 years old. I don’t care about anything that happened to me when I was 19 except the songs I wrote and the memories we made together. So what I’m trying to tell you is that I’m not putting this album out so that you could go and, like, feel the need to defend me on the internet against someone you think I might have written a song about 14 billion years ago.”
