For those who were in Miami...did she really threaten to dock someone's pay? =)

Did she really say she was going to dock someone's pay?! Which clip is that? A few observations: If it took the crew a couple minutes to get someone to turn off the AC, you'd have to imagine it could take >15 minutes for Madiva to truly be able to feel it on-stage after she barked about it. She prob expected immediate results. I would assume what happened was that since the arena only filled up toward the end, they may have had to turn on the AC late in the game to compensate. For all we know, fans in the arena may have complained to management to turn ON the AC, which made it cooler than Madiva had requested. Either way, I'm not sure why this was such a horrible crisis. It's not like there was a security incident or something. Do you remember the infamous un-edited interview clip from the American Life days where she is yelling at Caresse to turn on the air conditioning? She was either going through hot flashes (not making a joke) or is overall extremely sensitive to temperature.

I guess it's all relative, varying performance to performance, but she didn't seem to be giving it her all last night. I watched some of Open Your Heart, and she appears to not sing a few words, for example. What time did the show start last night? I only realized yesterday that she arrives to each venue more than 5 hours before each show starts. I didn't realize it was this far in advance.

When I heard that N&D were going to be there on Monday night, I was close to buying a last-minute ticket, but luckily none were offered at face value. Had I paid the money only to see N&D not invited on stage nor even acknowledged by Madonna, I would have been fuming. I wonder if Madonna decided not to bring them on-stage because she was afraid that they might get too warm a reception (i.e., if the crowd went wild, would Madonna feel like she had made a mistake in not featuring them in her tour?). Three minutes given to Michael Jackson, with whom she was photographed possibly 5 times, and zero given to N&D. Hmmm.

What is the latest from MSG, anyone know? Twitter seems a bit useless the past 15 mins or so.

Madonna needs to go do a costume break and let Niki and Donna do "Rain"

If only she had cut this filler out and had N&D on stage instead =(((( I hope the crowd goes absolutely bananas for them; I think that would send a message to Madonna.

It would be a bit of a slap in the face if Madonna just has them as guest Vogue judges. It's not a mystery why no big celebrity has agreed to it just yet. I think Madonna has done enough to seemingly "erase" these two from memory; I really hope they join her on-stage to do a number. Most people think it will be for Rain, but I think E.Y. would be more enjoyable.

I wish this forum would focus on the tour. I hope someone was able to benefit from the last-minute supreme tickets that became available for the DC show(s).

Is anyone at the show tonight? Has the opening act gone on yet?

Do people really not think she's going onstage until 10pm, or is this just a guess? (If not a guess, can I ask where this is coming from? :))
