    But this would happen anyway. Keep in mind that with such a large number of people, to be close to the stage you would probably have to go there the day before. And I don't think someone who is just curious to see her because it's free would go a day early. The hardcore fans will go.

    That's true. But what I meant was that the pits and front sections could require a wrist band, so lining up wouldn't get you in there. You'd have to be given it from her team/event organisers etc.

    Wondering if they will have a section for Icon members? Any news on this?

    They're using the same stage so I think we can probably expect they'll fill the pits and front area with hardcore fans and VIP's. Maybe Icon members, competitions through the media, the whatsapp texts on the night etc. Since its being filmed they'll want the most enthusiastic people up front, not big fat men with dirty looks on their faces.

    Hear me out. While the show might not have many changes... except this little new gem.

    Last show.

    She says thank you, goodnight.... bang. Encore song. 

    What is it.

    Music . Imagine she leaves the stage and the crowd chants for more. Then we hear the beat of Music kick in. The dancers come out , then Madonna.

    In the climax of the song sparks shoot up from the stage and streamers explode all over the audience as Madonna jumps up and down thanking all her fans for 40 incredible years.

    It will also be interesting to see how they will do for all the screens that unfold. I noticed that they were already moving in the arena with the air conditioning so on a beach, it will be complicated to stabilize them with the sea air :thinker:

    Actually the side screens are sort of useless anyway with this setup because there will be no seats to the side. Maybe giant screens on the side of the stage like the older tour instead? They can also put screens all along the beach so the entire audience can watch something no matter how far back the are.

    The indoor arenas use the actual arena infrastructure to suspend rigging for whatever show is being presented, as in the picture above. Yes, all arenas are different, but they're made for rigging up whatever a production may need.

    For stadium or outdoor shows, since there is no roofing (and said infrastructure) to house/hang a production, they have to actually build it (that's what I meant by "custom engineer" it). Like the Sticky & Sweet stage below -

    Madonna_-_Sticky_and_Sweet_Tour_7.jpg

    What I meant was they'll have to build something like this if they're going to present the full, original production as she's touring it now - as major parts of the production require rigging (hanging) far out into audience, over the multiple catwalks.  I don't think it's impossible...I think some of us are just unsure considering all shows so far have been indoors.

    (Sorry, I'm trying to explain it as best I can (based on what I've learned about touring productions). I apologize if I'm not clear... :luv:)

    That's ok, I understand what you mean. It is hard to really know how feasible it is but to me going by these images it seems pretty straight forward. It is just a matter of adding another structure to hold it all up as they've done with Sticky. Considering they lease the stages and everything and that the components are recycled I would assume adding that wouldn't be anymore difficult than building a bridge from the hotel to the stage. Keeping in mind I know absolutely nothing about this type of thing. I don't believe the fans saying it's logistically impossible (not you) work on big arena/stadium shows designing or setting up staging equipment either. Unless they do, I'm not sure how they would really know what is and isn't possible? There are a number here who insist the show won't be the same but I don't know how they've determined that? The image above shows that it's very possible, it would just have to be a bigger version of that. I also feel, knowing what we know about Madonna, the idea of her doing a half missing version of her show and then broadcasting it to millions seems unlikely. But I guess we'll see.

    The only time they design and erect custom housing for the rigging system (depending on the design of the show) is when artists do outdoor stadium gigs (hence no roof). They can design a housing that will support it though, but it has to be custom engineered for it (like the extended rigging housing the circular screens that came down over the circular stage b for Sticky & Sweet). I doubt they would do all that for one, single show though...unless she worked that out as part of her deal?

    Why does it have to be custom engineered? None of the venues it suspends from are custom designed and they are all different. So it must be fairly flexible to what it can be attached to. It is even possible that when they designed the show they planned for the possibility of taking it to stadiums/outdoor venues. There are really just too many unknowns for us to jump to the assumption that the show won’t be the same.

    Also all the images that come down from the ceiling will not be there anyway so make of that what you will. 

    Logistics peeps. 

    People keep saying this but I don’t see why they can’t bring in an additional structure to suspend everything from. These kinds of things are done all the time, it’s just a question of budget. And im pretty certain, with the amount being paid and the fact it’s being broadcast she will feel it necessary. I mean, The Rolling Stones had an entire bridge built for them and additional lighting set up to light up the entire audience. I don’t imagine it’s that difficult to have some extra bells and whistles for Madonna.

    Why include a question about the dancers? Who do you think we are? Who actually knows each one?

    The only name who i could put a face to was Kupono Aweau. He was giving such parTy n play energy, and i love that.

    Nobody knows each one but most of us have at least one fave.

    I guess you spent too much time doing lines off Andy Cohens cock?

    That's rich.

    And fr @Robertthenurse I had the same thought. What if it downpours that day :dead: Outdoors is so temperamental. But I'm optimistic hearing from @karlafalves that the wet season is not typically inclusive of May.

    I wonder if she’d go ahead with the show in bad weather. Or if she’d cancel? She’d probably still get the money on insurance :laughing:
