The Rebel Heart Tour 2015-2016


Recommended Posts

I can't wait to hear Rebel Heart/Whole Lotta Love. Her tour versions that add a twist always leave a great impression on me. Like A Virgin (Confessions Tour Version) is my favourite Madonna song of all time.

I don't think RH/WLL is going to happen. I mean, those songs do not fit at all, not even in a mashup.

I thought the same thing.  I'm a huge Led Zep fan so this whole Madonna doing Led Zeppelin thing has me wet in the panties.

 

Maybe Ramble On or Over The Hills & Far Away?  I also thought D'Yer Maker would fit well with Unapologetic Bitch as they're both reggae.

 

 

As far as Rebel Heart the song goes, I've been thinking a mash up of that & Tracy Chapman's Fast Car would be amazing as they sound so similar.

THE EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW MADONNA ON RYTHME FM
Attached to New York, Madonna was speaking about the inspiration behind his new show Rebel Heart, to be presented on all continents.

 

This new show will bring together several of the great successes of the singer and many songs from his latest album, Rebel Heart, in addition to feature twenty dancers, with whom Madonna repeats in New York for a while now.

This is the third interview with Geneviève Borne of the famous singer. The first meeting took place in November 1994, to mark the release of the album Bedtime Stories, and the second was conducted in March 1998 as part of the launch of Ray of Light.

 

The host was very enthusiastic about this third interview with Madonna, who is known to grant only very few interviews. "Madonna is an artist I admire a lot and I am career since the beginning. She is a great inspiration and I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to talk to him! "Expresses the facilitator.

Good news is that the Live Pass gifts are shipping in September (I assume everyone knows this already)I think it's weird that I got one as a Lifetime Legacy member which I assume they just sent to everyone anyways. I was a Live Pass member for the MDNA Tour, did it explicitly say that Lifetime members would get their own item or was that announced later?

In Madonna's Rebel Heart Tour, Expect the Unexpected
Posted: 08/21/2015
 
Where were you when you first heard Madonna?
 
It's a question that pop fans who devoured the offerings put forth by MTV and top-40 radio during the Eighties and Nineties can probably answer without thinking. Mine: "Borderline," off her self-titled debut and an MTV staple thanks to its video, which mixed high art and graffiti and hopscotch. The song's wounded, yet bubbly production made me dance; Madonna's effortless cool gave me a glimpse at what bohemian adulthood might be like.
 
The songs of hers that I probably remember best, though, are the ones on her 1986 album True Blue, which served as the official warm-up album for a dance class I took during sixth grade; any mention of the pugilistic actor Jimmy Cagney, to whom Madonna dedicated that album's feisty "White Heat," flashes me back to the afternoons of leotards and stretching at the barre.
 
No matter what era of Madonna one remembers most fondly -- the crumpled white dress of the "Like A Virgin" era, the negligee-and-brown-hair "Like A Prayer" period, the glossier, wiser Madge that emerged after she discovered EDM -- quite a few Madonna memories will be conjured by the "Rebel Heart" tour, which kicks off in Montreal on September 9.
 
But don't expect memories of past chart-toppers like "Dress You Up," "Holiday," and "Who's That Girl" to match themselves exactly to what'll happen on stage.
 
"I realize that people want to hear my older stuff, so for me it's always a tricky balance trying to keep some continuity, not only with sound, sonically, but also thematically," Madonna told Bravo head honcho Andy Cohen in a recent Entertainment Weekly interview. "That's why a lot of times I have to take the songs and turn them inside out and make them more ironic than straightforward so that they work for me."
 
Madonna' s 10th worldwide tour is being promoted with a poster of the chameleonic singer with a sword plunged into her chest, a direct reference to the title of her most recent album, Rebel Heart, the cover of which depicts her face bound in black wires. Her playing with provocative imagery will continue on tour -- a teaser for the tour released last month offers a glimpse of someone sporting a nun's habit while dancing on a stripper pole. The image isn't surprising given Madonna's past, from "Like A Virgin" on.
 
Rebel Heart, the album to which Madonna is pegging this tour, is a fairly solid effort. Always one to be hyperaware of what's trending around the pop world, Madonna collaborated with the EDM titan Avicii and the globe-trotting producer Diplo, as well as next-generation pop auteurs like Ariel Rechtshaid and Natalia Kills. It's a move into the 21st century's second decade that, while not perfect, often has moments of bliss -- on the sumptuous "Joan Of Arc," a worthy successor to other downtempo tracks like "La Isla Bonita," Madonna sings over a delicately plucked acoustic guitar, while she sighs over a gently bouncing beat on "Body Shop," a playful dude-as-car metaphor. Then there's the brash "Bitch I'm Madonna," in which the Material Girl reminds everyone of her formidable legacy.
 
The tour's set list will likely feature some of those songs, but the prospect of her reinventing her back catalog yet again -- not just for younger audiences who might not have been around for their first trips up the charts, but for diehards who have followed her around the world -- is exciting, especially given the way she's turned her songs inside-out in the past.
 
The 1991 documentary Madonna: Truth Or Dare offered a raunchy, sometimes tense glimpse at Madonna's tour life. (Her openness was unsurprising to her then-boyfriend Warren Beatty: "She doesn't want to live off-camera, much less talk... What point is there of existing off-camera?" he asked at one point.) But it also allowed viewers a chance to see how she reinvented her songs top-to-bottom on tour, and didn't simply remake her MTV-saturating videos onstage: Her reworking of "Like A Virgin" into an extended vamp that ended with a simulated masturbation scene was so scandalous to early-'90s audiences, police officers in Toronto threatened to arrest her after the show if it went on -- but it also became an MTV staple thanks to the way it wholly updated a song that was so crucial to the channel's earliest days.
 
The reigning doyenne of the "pop stars who can fill stadia" set, Madonna last went on the road in 2012 to promote her push into EDM MDNA. That 88-date run, which was kicked off by her appearance at Super Bowl XLVI, wound up being the year's highest-grossing tour. It made $305 million and featured a full-on fashion show (and an update of her storied cone bra) during "Vogue":
 
Madonna also turned the empowerment anthem "Express Yourself" into an explosion of majorettes (and nodded at the many similarities between that 1989 jam and Lady Gaga's 2011 ode to self-love, "Born This Way"):
 
These treatments have a .0000001% chance of being repeated this time around, but they do offer a glimpse at how Madonna treats her back catalog as germs for bigger ideas -- sometimes serious, sometimes silly, always with her trademark blend of bravado and sock-it-to-you hooks. While she might not be the most technically gifted singer, live shows allow Madonna to create a fully realized pop world into which she invites her fans -- a place where she not only trades in the kind of titillating shock that defined her earliest days, but where she unearths surprises in the already known.

Madonna's "Rebel Heart" Tour Higher Secondary Ticket Prices Than Previous MDNA Tour
The Queen of Pop is set to hit the road, and may be on track to break tour records yet again as well. Madonna’s “Rebel Heart†tour, a tour in support of her thirteenth studio album, which she released in March, is scheduled to kick off on September 9 in Montreal. The North American leg of the tour will wrap up in October (although several additional dates are scheduled in North America for 2016), and will cover Europe and the U.K. in November and December.
 
In her touring past, Madonna has smashed records on the road. According to the Billboard Boxscore, Madonna’s MDNA tour in 2012 grossed $305 million and moved 2.2 million tickets to 88 shows. That year, it was the highest grossing tour. On that run, the show made a stop at London’s Hyde Park, a stadium with a massive 65,000 capacity. The average ticket price for that show was $250, with a get-in price of $170. In the U.S., Madonna played two shows at Yankee Stadium, a venue with a 49,642 capacity, and the average ticket price was $204.70, with a get-in of just $28. On the second night, the average ticket price was $171.13 with a get-in price of $51. To compare, on her upcoming Rebel Heart tour, the average Madonna ticket is $331 on the secondary market for her US dates.
 
She is set to play two London dates in December at the O2 Arena, a 20,000 capacity arena. For her first show on December 1, the average ticket price to see Madonna  is $366, with get-in ticket prices of $334.  She is slotted to play two dates in New York City in September, one at Madison Square Garden (18,200 capacity), and the other at The Barclays Arena in Brooklyn (18,103 capacity).  The MSG show on September 16 has an average ticket price of $387, with a get-in price of $114, and the Barclays Arena show has an average ticket price of $475, with a get-in price of $77, according to Ticketbis.

Madonna’s 2006 Confessions tour grossed $194 million and had 1.2 million tickets sold to 60 shows. Her most successful run yet, her 2008-2009 Sticky & Sweet tour, grossed $408 million for 3.5 million tickets sold.  It continues to hold the record for the biggest tour ever for a female artist. With her ticket sales already competitive on the secondary market, Madonna may be on track to break more records with Rebel Heart.
