It's great that 'I Knew You Were Trouble' is getting some boost. It's because of year-end countdowns and undoubtedly it was one of the biggest of 2013. I hope the album which is currently at #102 also gains some boost but I don't think Big Machine has any more plans. It seems like they have already moved on to plan the next era. The last thing which could give 'Red' is a boost is Grammys.
I am so happy that this era ended so well. Let's make a list of the good things that happened with this era (Notice: it's not in order):
1. We go another #1 album
2. 'Red' debuted with 1M+ sales in the first week.
3. 'Red' is on track of selling 4 million like its predecessors very soon.
4. 'Red' produced two biggest hits: 'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together' and 'I Knew You Were Trouble'.
5. Taylor got 5 Grammy Nominations in total including Album of The Year for Red, Record Of The Year for We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, Best Country Album for Red, Best Country Song for Begin Again and Best Country Duo/Group Performance for 'Highway Don't Care'.
6. Taylor got her second VMA.
7. Taylor was named most Charitable Person Of The Year.
8. Taylor was named 'Tennessean Of The Year'
9. Taylor got her first #1 Hot 100 hit with 'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together'.
10. 'Sweeter Than Fiction' got a Golden Globe nomination.
11. Taylor got her first #1 Album in UK.
12. Taylor got her highest single certification ever with 'I Knew You Were Trouble' going 6x Platinum in Australia.
13. Taylor got Pinnacle Award.
14. Taylor got multiple awards at AMAs and BMAs including 'Artist Of The Year' award.
15. Taylor got her first ACA award with 'Highway Don't Care'.
16. On December 4, 2013, Taylor performed to an at capacity crowd of over 40,900 fans at the Allianz Stadium: Sydney, Australia; becoming the first female artist in history to sell out the stadium since opening in 1988.
17. On August 13, 2012, Taylor's "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" was the Fastest Selling Single in digital History, the song reached the top position on the iTunes singles chart in 50 minutes, hence breaking the previous record held by Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" with a record of an hour.
18. On October 14, 2012, Taylor Swift's "I Knew You Were Trouble" sales 416,000 because of that Taylor Swift became the first artist in digital history to have two songs that debuted with sales of 400,000 or more copies.

24. On August 20, 2013, Taylor Swift was honored by Staples Center Senior Vice President and General Manager Lee Zeidman and officials from Red tour promoter the Messina Group for breaking their record of the most sold-out shows for a solo artist. Her four sold out shows occurring on August 19–20 & 23-24 began a wave of record breaking shows. On Monday August 19 she surpassed Madonna and Justin Timberlake, who each have logged seven sellouts, Tuesday August 20 she topped Britney Spears' previous record of eight sellouts. Following her Friday August 23 & Saturday August 24th shows she will become the #1 Solo Artist and tied with Latin Pop Group Mana for most overall sellouts. with 11.

Have to go back to work, didn't finish Red (Deluxe Edition), but WOW the drum tracks on SacRED are so good, they improved so much. I think she learned much more from Shellback, I look forward to further collaboration. Do you remember she mentioned improving drum tracks many times. So excited! LP5 will definitely be a stadium album.

When you put it like that, the RED era looks like a huge success, so why doesn't it feel like one?

Firstly, good to see a familiar poster from UKMix!
I would have added, Taylor sang with Prince William and Bon Jovi at the Winter Whites Gala charity fundraiser for Centrepoint. That's a moment that Taylor will look back upon and remember with great affection.
Taylor won a Billboard Touring Award for the Red Tour. Taylor now has 3 headlining tours and each of them have won a Billboard Touring Award, showing the impact of her tours relative to other tours. Also Taylor has been getting rave reviews for her Red Tour performances. The Red Tour has seen Taylor really improve her level of performance. Performing used to be her weak points but she has really worked on it and it is now a strong point of hers.
The Red Tour also had 17 stadium dates, all sold out. This shows that Taylor is a genuine touring powerhouse, as only a select few artists can sell out stadiums.

I don't understand why there are only a few European dates tho... And what about the Asian & South American legs !? She's a megastar there. This is really awkward.
Even in the US, the Red Tour could've been way bigger, the demand is huge.
She came to Paris with the SNWT, and not with the Red Tour. Akont.

I still don't understand why she didn't play MSG. New Yorkers had to go all the way to Foxborough to see her and thats like a 3 1/2 hour drive. She could've sold out atleast 3 show possibly.

I think Ed told her about the plans on his first solo show on MSG, so she choose other arena to please Ed to selling out MSG on his own

Maybe Taylor will play the last show of the RED Tour on MSG? That would be great, imo.
