Aside from Madge's own instagram, have you guys seen any ads/info/whatever about the Showtime premiere because I've seen nada.

No offense to M, but, I don't think she really knows the complete difference between DVD, Blu-Ray, digital, streaming etc

LOL. (Sorry. Hope this was meant to be funny.)

thanks!

I've said this before but I think it would be great if we had 3 different versions (which I know would never happen): 1) super-edited movie version a la MDNA 2) a head-on static shot of the stage as if you were in the front row and the camera never cuts away and 3) a choose-your-own adventure version where you can pick 1 of 10 strategically placed different camera angles and you can switch to whatever angle you want when you want.

These video are amazing. Thank you! Side note: I don't think we may see the straight hairstyle too often -- it looked like it kept getting in her face and was annoyed by it :/

I cannot imagine what I would do if this happened to me. So sorry for everyone in Manchester! If she wanted to play the part of hero, she should do another night for free for people who were there tonight (if the arena is available). But, she probably doesn't give a sh!t.

As long as we're putting in requests, I'd like to see all the different songs she's done (Ghosttown, Like A Prayer, Secret etc)

That's really great! Is this a hobby or do you stage design for work?

I would kill for a Blu-Ray that had 5 or 6 static shots of the concert and we could choose to view what angle we could watch the whole show from from the main menu, or switch back and forth to different angles as we see fit. It's impossible I know with all the edits needed, but still a dream.

I have a dumb question -- what's all this talk of queueing up early for European shows? Is it general admission on the floor or are you assigned seats?

Oh, I don't care. As long as she continues to put on a hell of a show and be The Queen, I'm there

Agreed. Definitely seems like she was lip-synching and/or backing vocal is way louder to compensate. You can clearly she doesn't have the mic up close enough and she's not singing when the vocals start.

This song/performance is cursed... sort of :( I've watched a few different performances across The RHT of this song... has anyone else noticed she gives a very subtle nod to the two dancers to let them know it's OK to tug the cape down?

The Show Must Go On! I'm thinking of hopping in the car if tickets are available!

Does anyone know of HQ... hell, even LQ... audio for the whole Barclay's show?

Went to MSG Thursday and off to Barclays tonight (solo tonight ) Still can't wait!

I am just utterly shocked (and depressed) that Ghosttown didn't make the cut, especially after she has said that it's her favorite song from RH. My initial impressions: It seems like odd placing in the setlist for BIM --I think the song has taken on a life of it's own and would have more of a big moment to go with it, if that makes sense. Maybe be the first song in the section or opening number? It seems to have gotten lost in the shuffle along with LFL. The number of "oldies but goodies" was amazing! Do we think she will bring a real fan up on stage every night in the place where Diplo came up? Honestly? I wasn't blown away while watching on Periscope. But, then again, I was watching on Periscope. I think once I see it for real in person next week I will have a completely different and positive opinion. Looking forward to my bitch, Madonna at MSG & Barclays!

I loved the MDNA Tour -- it has always been a dream of mine to see M in a stadium and basically I died twice at Yankee Stadium: one (bad) floor seat and lucky enough to be a Triangle Bitch the 2nd time. Not going to lie: I am a little afraid of what time she is going to actually take the stage and I know a few people who aren't buying tickets or waiting to buy tickets to see what the start time is because she came on so late for MDN. A lot of the time, people DO have to go to work in the AM or get home to their kids, etc. I also noticed a visible lack of enthusiasm and audible grumblings from the people around me when I saw MDNA at MSG from the upper bowl in NYC because she went on so late. I hope it doesn't happen this time around :(

Sorry - As someone who hails from Detroit originally and still goes back many times a year to visit family, I can assure you that one of the reasons it's not selling out is because "it's a dangerous city to be out in at night." The "high crime rate and muggings" doesn't stop the arena from filling to capacity for Detroit Red Wings hockey games and the numerous other touring acts the arena hosts. The arena and the surrounding area is actually quite safe. First and foremost, she pissed people off in her home state by calling them basic, like you said, coupled with the high cost of tickets and that's a recipe for disaster.

What's with all the intermissions?

Messiah is by far (for me, at least) the best song on RH and I believe a real gem in general. I also felt the same way about Falling Free and we all know how that ended for the MDNA Tour :(

Where is she rehearsing in NYC/Brooklyn? Looks like a full-sized arena of some sort behind her.

I would die for Take A Bow. I would die twice if Bedtime Story was included
