Wow the timing and mixing is terrible. Why is her mic volume at about 20% compared to the studio vocals?

I noticed that too, think that's why they had to reset the show. After the show got back it got a lot better.

Thats my only criticism of this show from the bits ive seen, she's barely audible much across the show.

I simply loved it. 

At the end of the day, I agree.  It wasn't perfect, but it was the first show, but it isn't your typical Greatest Hits show even though a lot of people will still be happy with what she performed.

You see, it´s all about blow jobs!

To be fair, we are relying on a lot of fan footage, so it's really hard to tell how much live singing she did, but even with the write up that Stuart talked about, we know they went back to original studio recordings and used them as backing tracks.  While I prefer her to just do a straight live show, it's pretty typical of what high profiled artists are doing these days.

So.. how are we feeling? 

Wait so what were the other songs in the segment w/Music that were cut?

@maxijazz Thanks for sharing your HQ videos! 

Did you happen to film Live To Tell? 

I reall need to see Live To Tell in HQ.
Awesome performance what you can tell from the snippets on Twitter!

[DiegoLCL 5,056]

I'm not trying to tear anyone down to lift Madonna up, but remember that NO OTHER POP BITCH will be giving this high level of artistry, commitment, motivation, drive, fire and love 40 years into a career and at 65 years old.

BE THANKFUL MOTHERFUCKERS, we stan the best pop artist ever and we still have her.

Another visual perspective of the opening and Nothing Really Matters:

And with images like this, I think we can just bow down to her and close this amazing comeback night!!!

[Roy 7,613]

Given that this is the opening night, it is given that there are messy bits happening but once it keeps going, no doubt the Celebration Tour will be a reminder of what Madonna can still do. :D

No sorry, I still got this shorty but goody

Still gagging over that Cher bit 🤣🤣🤣

[scion 3,123]

The audience singing the original lyrics to Into The Groove really tickles me. This is brilliant.

From DrownedMadonna :

"Unfortunately Hold Tight, Sorry and Oh Father, as we hinted on our previous videos, were cut from the opening night, but it is possible they were omitted due to a technical problem at the O2; we surely hope to hear some of those very soon!"

I guess we'll see what happens tomorrow, but I don't buy this one bit.  It was a rather long show as it is, so I can't imagine this was really cut. Thanks for the info though.

Why’s the crowd so dead? I mean they’re just standing with their phones up, they don’t even dance! 🙄 

[shane54 710]

And where are the HQ pictures from the opening night?

Mike Roda (Lighthouse Mike) used to always share amazing press pictures.

Bad Girl and Bedtine Srory are so exciting to me.  As is Rain.  Love that EROTICA is three songs in on this tour.  That is pretty exciting.

Really? I thought many people were having the time of their lives. But I guess at the same time, we can say everyone was in "awe" of her performance.

Then again, these days, people are so engaged with capturing everything on their phone, it's hard for some to actually look like they are enjoy themselves.

Anyone have a full HQ video of Rain??
