Hey everyone!
Tom here. Amidst all of the craziness that Gloriana has been swept up in lately, I found myself standing in front of a diner in Reno, NV last night with the crew physically "smelling" some roses that were growing around the building. It made me stop and think -- everyone needs to stop and smell the roses from time to time -- especially me. Guess what I did this week?

This was a much anticipated weekend on the Fearless tour, as we stopped for shows in Los Angeles and Las Vegas, two of my favorite places! The show in LA was surreal. Playing for a sold out Staples Center was an experience of a lifetime. And to top it off? Taylor personally introduced me to her good friend, John Mayer! He's been a musical inspiration to me for years and it was so cool to actually meet him! I geeked out like a little girl and was completely lost for words! (sorry, John, I'm not creepy, I swear!)

Next stop was a sold out Mandalay Bay in Sin City. It was one of our best sets on the tour so far. The vibe was just "right" and we had a blast on stage. We were joined by a few friends and got to go out in Vegas, which is always fun!

All in all, it was one of the best weekends of my life. Thank you to everyone that made it happen, especially you, Taylor!

Sometimes in life, we all need to just stop and smell the roses. Life is good!

Till next time...
Tom
