Taylor Swift's Bandmate Pens Emotional Message About End of Eras Tour

Swifties aren’t the only people who are getting emotional after the record-breaking Eras Tour came to a close.

Taylor Swift’s international tour, which began in March 2023 and wrapped up on Dec. 8 in Vancouver, was seen by over 10 million people, and while Swift has made many emotional admissions about how much the tour meant to her, she’s not the only person on that stage to feel that way.

One of Swift’s band members, bass player Amos Heller, took to social media on Dec. 9 to write a sweet message to fans after the close of the tour.

“I don’t know how I feel yet. You’re the best fans in the world. In the world. Thank you for your effort, your planning, your kindness. Miss you already. Thank you. See you soon,” he wrote alongside a photo of his wrist covered in friendship bracelets.

Swift’s fans are familiar with Heller, who has worked with the “Cruel Summer” singer since 2007, according to his IMDB page.

Last August, a moment of friendship and trust between the two was put on display when, in the middle of a performance of “Love Story,” her in-ears that help her keep track of the beat stopped working.

As Swift signaled to a sound technician that something was awry, she found Heller and kept her eyes on his instrument to see the beat of the song. Heller immediately understood what was happening and nodded his head in time with the music to prompt Swift on when she should begin singing again.

Swift speaks openly about how much she appreciates her band and crew, but a recent report gave a monetary value to her gratitude. People reports that the 14-time Grammy winner gave out $197 million in bonuses to her tour staff, from musicians to dancers to technicians and more, over the past two years of touring.

As the news broke, Swift’s fans were quick to point out that her generosity is nothing new, unearthing an interview from early in her career where she shared that her “biggest extravagance” in her then-new success was trying to “take care of my band and crew.”

In the interview, Swift said “that’s the most fun thing in the world, rather than buying a Lamborghini I just make sure everyone feels like they’re in the right place. I make sure that everybody feels that they’re really taken care of, and paying them well, bonusing them well.”
