Taylor Swift joked that she may have finally broken her flower-painted piano during the acoustic section of night two in Milan, Italy.
"So the acoustic section is the part of the show that I look forward to every single night because it's always different," Swift said starting with her guitar song selection. As she noodled some chords at the end of the Eras Tour catwalk, she said, "It's also an opportunity for me to hang out with you wild people back here."
Swift then dove into a mashup of "Mr. Perfectly Fine" from "Fearless (Taylor's Version)" and the title track from "Red (Taylor's Version)." The light-up wristbands coated the San Siro Stadium in bright cherry red.
"That's why he's spinning round in my head, comes back to me burning red and you're Mr. Perfectly Fine," Swift ended fervently strumming the final few notes of the mixed songs.

She exchanged her six-stringed instrument with 88 keys.
"If you're liking the song selection from tonight, you can thank the crowd from last night," she said at the piano. "You've been so generous to us. You've made us feel so at home here. It's really been an unforgettable experience and so … I really just wanted to figure out songs to play that you'd want to hear the most."
Swift played "Getaway Car" from "Reputation" and the crowd roared. One line in, she paused after a chord sounded incorrect. A production hand came on stage as the wristbands turned bright green to assist. He opened the top of the piano which wouldn't close. Swift said she didn't need it to close and when he left, she quipped, "We have finally broken this thing."
"This is all completely..." she started to say while pushing on the piano top and it closed. She went back into the "Reputation" track and Swifties in the audience loved it.
After the first chorus, she asked, "Did I choose correctly?"
The Italian crowd roared. She blended in "Out of the Woods" from "1989 (Taylor's Version)."
So far in the Eras Tour, Swift hasn't played 17 songs from her 11 studio albums. Her next concert city is Gelsenkirchen, Germany.
