When there is one show per city that people have heard and got tickets for 6 months prior, they will be able to make time for that opportunity, also with the right promo, the tour could’ve been way bigger. No, they couldn't. There's no way they could sell this tour to even a half-arena crowd, especially starting at post-11pm vs. 9:30pm on the RHT. A lot of her sales are to fans going to multiple nights. Even as a big fan, I can admit the setlist isn't going to draw anyone who doesn't either want to go to an intimate show to say they've gone or isn't already a big fan to begin with. The GP doesn't care at all about Madame X the album or watching a 2 hour political statement (the people around me said she's preaching to the choir, which is totally true). The setlist and stage setup wouldn't work in an arena or have the same impact. That said, the theater experience is a once in a lifetime privilege with M. I'm glad I went.

Well it wasn't just a change of venue that I suggested doing. I also mentioned her appearing quite late among other things. If this was an arena tour, it could've involved more songs, a bigger stage, add 2-3 more tracks, replace some underwhelming stuff like the two covers and the lengthy talks with old hits and some forgotten gems, bring in some great production and you've got yourself a great show that everyone cares to see. It didn't need to be a 2 hour political statement. I appreciate her creating an album with a message, but that doesn't mean she should forget about the music and replace it with just statements. I wouldn't want this stage anywhere, not in a theater or an arena. It's simplistic, it's ugly and it's like it belongs to a show from the 80s or Kate Bush. Not someone like Madonna who brought the largest screens and the best tech and latest dance techniques of the year, for each tour. She already did the politics and chit chat thing in Tears of a Clown and that should've been it. Hell, the 7 songs version of MDNA at Olympia was a hell of a lot better than this. digitalfreaknyc and bedtimestory 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ashley Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I've said this before. If M had hired a broadway or musical theatre production team who went through her entire music catalogue and selected songs which compliment the MX manifesto theme and selected the strongest songs from the MX album, then wrote a solid script which told the MX story and designed top notch sets and theatrics she could have pulled something magical off. It's obvious this show was put together fast and on the cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been debating between a few things. I'm a bit broke until I get to LA so it won't be much, but I have made a homemade Madame X eyepatch to wear at least. I had a few outfits I was looking at, but I just am not sure if I'll have time to get everything beforehand.

Synchrone 535 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 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.
