Backstage at the Red Tour · PNC Arena · Raleigh, NC · September 13, 2013
"Meeting Taylor Swift was a full-circle moment — from spinning her records to standing right next to her." — Spyder Stevens
Taylor Swift's Red Tour hit Raleigh's PNC Arena on September 13, 2013, and DJ Spyder Stevens was right there in the middle of it. From the meet-and-greet to front-row energy, this was one for the vault. Taylor brought the full production — pyro, costume changes, surprise guests — and Spyder brought the camera. The result? A night that still gets talked about years later.
