Taylor Swift brings 'Mine' back to Maine


From Maine-

Taylor Swift rocked the Kennebunks for three days last week, filming scenes for a Country Music Television special, enjoying time out at local restaurants with her family and crew, and finally premiering the video for her new single Friday night at St. Ann's Episcopal Church on Ocean Avenue.

The premiere, which aired as a half-hour live special on CMT, was followed by a mini-concert for more than 800 fans who gathered to hear one of country music's biggest stars.

Among the concert-goers were York Police Chief Doug Bracy and his wife, Brenda, an administrator with the town's Parks and Recreation Department.

"It was awesome," Brenda Bracy said Tuesday of Swift's outdoor show. "It was quite an experience. It was a once-in-a-lifetime thing ... I couldn't believe how many people were there."

Both Brenda and Doug said they are huge country music fans who were delighted to have the chance to see Swift on a summer's evening.

The couple was about 20 feet away from the star during the show, according to Doug, who was struck by Swift's poise and her graciousness toward the people of Maine.

"She hasn't lost her compass," he said. "She gave her all, in a sense, for her fans. It was just a perfect night."
