Pickler started off with her single, which is co-written by Taylor Swift, "Best Days of Your Life".
She played about a 30 minute set including the hit singles, "Things That Never Cross a Mans Mind," "Don't You Know Your Beautiful," and finally finishing with her original debut single "Red High Heels."
Swift came on stage about 30 minutes later. She opened up in a band uniform, as with the rest of the band, and performed "You Belong With Me."
She then immediately transitioned into "Our Song," appearing in a silver dress.
"I have wanted to say this for a really, really long time," said Swift. "Welcome to The Fearless Tour 2009!?
Swift then played "Tell Me Why." This would pretty much be the last song of the night and would be followed hereafter by award show style performances.
Fearless, which was similar to the end of a normal concert, featured all the band members coming out to the catwalk and singing before running backstage.
Swift then appeared on the screens being interviewed about boys. The host was asking who would date her after calling out so many boys in songs.
Swift appeared at the end of the film on stage. She was wearing a red dress now and performed "Forever and Always" with a very Joe Jonas looking figure sitting opposite her in the same chairs featured in the aforementioned interview.
While the band was nowhere to be found, a movie came across the screen, Amos Heller, Swift's bassist, narrated a documentary about the boys Taylor writes about. The short piece included, Drew, aka Tyler Hilton, Stephen Liles and Tim McGraw.
Swift then appeared in a purple dress to sing "Hey Stephen" in the aisle in the back of the venue. She then made her way down to a small second stage that rose up in the sound booth area to finish the song.
She then sang "Best Day" to her mother, Andrea Swift, who was located below her in the sound booth. Andrea cried during the song while the screens played childhood videos of Taylor and Andrea together.
The performance of "Tim McGraw" has never changed. Taylor hasn't changed her performance of that song from previous tours.
