I live in Pioneer Square, which is walking distance to Lumen field, and I can confirm the two Taylor Swift events were the loudest events I’ve heard from the stadium. Louder than any other concert, sporting event, and even louder than the monster trucks. The crowd was awesome. It was cool to hear and the energy of everyone throughout the day was infectious.
Yes, but have they ever caused structural damage to a building, like Streetlight Manifesto fans once did?!
Could you give some links or pointers (which city/building/year)? I know of the band but not that story.
Record-breaking for human/technology-generated activity. Earth still rocks harder than Taylor.
I like the commentary from the interviewee that science happens everyday and comes from empirical observations; that it’s not reserved for people in labs with white coats.
Isn't there a story like this for every major concert or sporting event, and then a day later they print a retraction that no, it wasn't an earthquake or anything like it? Happened in Philly for both the World Series and NFL playoffs.
Part of this comes from the fact that Seattle's SODO area is built upon slews placed over glacial rock so the reverberations from the Stadiums basically bounces down and is reflected back.
I'm trying to find where I heard the whole description of this, I believe it was from `hugefloods` youtube channel.
I believe it was this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuK2kGeV15Q But I don't have time again to search through it, so this is pretty lazy proof, sorry.

The correct spelling is "sloughs".

I guess either Taylor Swift or CNN has financial difficulties so they need crap like this to stay afloat.
Yes. It seems quite likely that Taylor Swift is having financial difficulties.
Difficulty spending it all haha. I'm really happy for her.
There's this one party somewhere down in Zion that could've greatly benefited from a Swift performance.
