    I’m just seeing all the negative news about her coming on stage at 12:30am ? Wtf !! Does she even apologise on stage fir being so late ? If not then I have no sympathy for her - if she isn’t well she needs to cancel the show - this shows real disrespect to her fans who have paid a lot of money to see her ?

    It was a little after 12. She made a comment during the Fado section that a queen is never late. So you can imagine how that went over. She also said that something about Vegas never sleeping and that she was a saint and doing this for us, which alludes back to the Polaroid moment.

    Off topic, but when leople actually leave the show before she starts or after the first song or two, do they get refunds or not? I’ve been seeing so many people reporting since the start of the tour that some people leave each date, but the question is do they get refunded and how are those carried on? Only those who just bought tickets at the box office or from Ticketmaster or stubhub? 

    I think it would be a hard case since yes she started late but she still have a full show, Ticketmaster doesn’t care about us and will probably give a generic statement that things happen beyond control. Someone like Lauryn Hill who is also notoriously late will perform like 3 songs and then leave. I’ve looked it up before with Lauryn but I’ve never found evidence that people actually get refunded.

    So this is what I wrote on Tribe:

    Ok wow......That was a rough show. 12 am start time lead to a LOT of people leaving and lots of heckling throughout the show. She sounded like she had the sniffles so flu is still in effect.

    The Polaroid moment was all over the place. The first bid was $1,800, the second was $3,000 but the original bidder said it wasn’t all there. The third bid was ‘$5-6 thousand’, to which Madonna replied ‘You don’t know?’, someone offered their watch and then someone tried to give her all $1’s. The guy who offered $5-6 thousand was a pizza guy named Anthony who she referenced a few more times. The beer moment was at the stairs again.

    Honestly, it wasn't a great show for me in the sense I'm still jetlagged coming from Toronto, so it felt like 3 am when the show started so I was a little tired and unfocused and sitting near people who I knew would want to sit through the show and tell me to sit but has no problem during Medellin 'Maluma' repeatedly and saying 'Where's Maluma? I'm going to fuck him in the ass!!'. The best part for me was the person I ended up chatting with who was in town for business and then extended a day to see the show and it was also his first Madonna show! He knew about 3 Madame X songs, so he said it was good he got to take in the lyrics live for the others. And with so many leaving, prior to the show we went to the ushers to ask if we could bump our spot somewhere and they let us in the front section of where standing since it was completely empty aside from one person so one section over from our original tickets. So we moved up 13 rows from M to A and then during the Fado section when I was going to the bathroom someone handed me his tickets so moved up a few more rows in the 103 section. It was interesting to take in the show from there. Seeing and hearing different sounds was really cool.

    To cap off the night we ended up going back to our original spot in 203 and we both got to touch her!! She exits from 102-103 to 202-203.

    Overall the show was enjoyable, the heckling was pretty common as I heard in Chicago, after Batuka when she's explaining her journey to Portugal people yelling 'Sing!', so nothing was out of the ordinary (as I say this is ordinary).

    Ha!  I love that.

    This is why I think it's more of a set up.  We've heard some fans overhearing some of her team coming out asking in advance who has money to buy the Polaroid.  But yeah, who carries that sort of cash on them these days, especially when we have debit/credit cards that can be practically be used anywhere on big priced items?

    Not entirely, as the shows went on I think people caught onto the idea and have found the person who's 'in charge' of it. Notice how there's no longer a bidding war? I know from the 21st show in Chicago, Detox was right behind me and it was halfway during the song prior to the Polaroid bid a woman came to find her and get her set up. 

    Also its probably good that the person who had the second highest bid is now known as the person who had x thousand in their wallet leaving the theatre.

    Yikes. From MadonnaTribe:


    Opening night in Francisco didn’t go too well - the crowd was seated for much of the show including many in the front row which clearly upset madonna . During god control most of the crowd remained seated until mid way through when they finally woke up, woke up, woke up woke up...

    One fan who I know has seen Madonna 100+ times around the world including most of the NY and Chicago shows said “this was the worst crowd at any Madonna show I’ve ever seen”. Eek. Try harder San Francisco!!

    A couple in the front row left during Human Nature - Madonna asked “why?” And called them “trash” who were probably wearing Banana Republic!!

    Adding to the problems is that the stage is 12feet from the front row. Madonnas management were asking fans in the front row to fill the gap but venue security kept sending them backward. 

    There were no serious bidders for the Polaroid. Someone offered $400 and was told by a playful madonna to fuck off, so a friend of Madonna’s bid $10k and promised to pay later.

    The Beer Bitch moment looks to continue to be over for now at least, and was Madonna sat on the stairs having a group chat with the audience, although one fan was chosen to hand her the beer before the group chat began. 

    She excited on the beer bitch side as there was no centre aisle.

    Hopefully the next night in San Francisco will Come Alive!

    I’m going to the show in la and this might sound like a strange request but could someone going to one of the first shows let me know if it is really hot in the theatre? I’m worried because I don’t tolerate closed spaces and heat really well lol..thank you!

    I didn’t notice it in my first show in Chicago which is odd since I wore that jacket to show off all night ? but the second show where I was much closer it was so hot even before she began and about 5 songs in she said ‘It’s cold in here’ and it got so much warmer. Genius move I saw a few rows in front of me was a paper fan.

    $450 is what the sign said I believe. I could be wrong haha. 

    I do believe at both the album launch and NYC pop up before the tour it was $450. And then the Mae Couture paintings were $2,500 and the signed Madame X vinyl was $2,000.

    Ticketmaster has made me ill. I've wound up with 3 extra tickets CC orchestra (I'm in the pit). Tried to resell the tickets but TM is forcing them to be listed at TWICE the current retail value... This is after over 2 hours of delays before they were posted. Unless someone REALLY needs a ticket I'm out 2100 USD. Show begins in 3 hours. 

    How did you end up with so many. ? if they’re gonna go to waste maybe make someone’s day in the balcony and give them the others?

    I will be in the front road tonight. Out of nowhere I found a single seat a couple of days ago for face value. Words cannot even express my excitement. I may have to audio record this on my phone while it's locked away :)

    Doooo it!! Also, it's gonna be an awesome crowd. Last show and as of a few mins ago, there was 9 tickets on Ticketmaster, so it's gonna be a packed house.
