2023 Tour - How the show should start?

[Dj Garrido 1,689]

I imagine the VIDEO INTRO with clips of epic quotes starting with “What do you intend to 1984? - I wanna conquer the world” followed by frases about fame, career, sex, motherhood, ageism... mixed with magazine covers, fottage of concerts and music vídeos, receiveing awards, tv reports.... Something like the Madame X manifest, but slower, giving the audience time to watch, understand/remind how pioneeer she´s always been and cheer each strong sentence she says...

In the background, a new instrumental long intro of the fisrt song: Live to Tell. An epic performance similar to Drowned World in the 2001 DWT.

Dress You Up on guitar…

[Karma 2,818]

If the 2022 Pride performance is anything to go by, I think we will get "I Don't Search I Find" (Intro) + maybe "Vogue" (?) as the opening number and "Celebration" as the encore. This is mere speculation, obviously.

 

[Levon 2,223]

It's not my favorite song, but I think Ray of Light would be a very strong opener, focused on her voice and a not too complex dance routine. If she has problems with the high notes, an opera singer(!) could help over these parts.

On time.

[Andreo 5,305]

The poster expressed a really neat concept, I also can't stop thinking of her recreating somehow the LAV bride look as a nostalgic 80s opening idk

Looked right through us, she was hours away....

 

But really, a nice video interlude followed by "Everybody", "Holiday", "Lucky Star", "Burning Up" or "Borderline" (one of her first huge songs) is the way to go. Praying we do not have to listen to some emcee or narrator as is being rumoured at the moment. "I just wanna see Madonna"- McFarland, M.

Where has a Narrator been rumoured?!

Resurection....... A single point of light floating through the air.  Then.... a center stage light with Madonna's lifeless body.... The light goes out.... some thunder.... the light comes back on....  Madonna still breathless and  is still laying there motionless.  Excerpts of her biggest songs are echoing through the stadium as if she is circling the areana.  3D sound. More thunder... a lightning strike... Lights off and on again... then the swell of the song rain begins, this time from the stage and not the arena....  the single point of light moves closer and closer to her body and begins to multiply.... the light particles surround her and begin to enter her mouth and she breathes... in Rescue Me breathwork fashion.   Dancers come to help her up but the Warrior Goddess declines their help.  She makes her way to her feet and is unsteady for only a bit.  Then she goes straight in to a banger.

EncylopediaMadonnica posted and deleted about M "finding her emcee" after Bob The Drag Queen cancelled the entire Sibling Rivalry Tour. Bob was also seen on IG with Madonna at her home recently. 

If Bob is an opening act, I'm all for it. But I don't want an emcee or narrator during M's show and that's what he specifically mentioned in the now deleted post.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

 

 

Guys, even in  official videos, Bedtime Story still in low quality lol

[sara94 2,008]

Speaking of video intro, i think it would be great if they'd play like a short documentary or complication of her achievements and career right before the concert starts. That would hype up the crowd imo. Then as soon as the video ends, she'll appear on stage singing Vogue or whatever. 

 

[Pootz333 2,682]

It is interesting that "Live To Tell" is many people's top choice for the biopic title. But I haven't seen it mentioned much for the tour title. It would be a nod to one of her best 80's tracks that made a lot of people take her more seriously. And the fact that she has survived. More serious than "Celebration" buy also more poignant I think.

I was thinking more like 2009…

it’s funny to watch that old clip and think how bad we all thought she sounded at the time… if she did it now she would sound like Barry White.

[GregVsMatt 3,695]

Dress You Up would be a cool track to open up with as a nod to her iconic first tour

Even loving Live to Tell just like you, I prefer the tour to be named CELEBRATION. It´s more atractive. I fear that people think that this would be a ballads show if named "Live to Tell"...

I had thought of varying news reports/interviews but in like a reverse order (newer to older) with a medley of hits being played throughout and then use the opening for the Like a Virgin tour VHS with the "I went to New York..." as the band is now playing Everybody and she comes out in full 82/83 gear singing Everybody as the opener

Ugh please no MC's or stuff like that... but given that that is how the Pride show was... I wouldn't be surprised. As long as it's not hideous as the guy from Britney's Onyx Hotel Tour, I guess it's ok.

Pre recorded narration from her over video interludes would be amazing if that's the route they wanna go. And make people hungry for the biopic. 

[Black Mamba 135]

The show should start by her not showing up late, let’s start with that 😂

[thegoldencalf 12,573]

It should start with Frozen Sickick remix mixed in with snippets of iconic visuals from her career and then go into the Calderone remix as she makes her entrance and performs that. And that should transition into a new dance mix of Open Your Heart.

[Danton 618]

Or with Material Girl with the beginning of material gworllll / Material Girl is an Iconic song !
