Lucas B. 945 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 I really hope she adds a few more dates and bring the tour to Brazil, I need to see her live (as I was underage by the time of Sticky and MDNA I wasn't able to go to the shows since my parents thought it was a waste of money). I was thinking of seeing her in Lisbon or some other place, but that's seems very unlikely due to work and I'm almost sure they wouldn't give me 3 days off (especially due to the fact i'm the only one on the night shift) Madvox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretender1978 997 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 I'm happy to have "spoiled" myself with watching the show. In anticipation one always speculates how it is going to be, and quite frankly I start designing the show in my head. Of course the real thing is nothing like it and it takes a while to accept what isn't there. But looking at it this morning it seems like a wonderful show. I could see the interludes making more sense in underpinning the narrative but that's me. It all seems very sophisticated and I love the screens throuout the venue. Only real headscratcher for me is LAV/BJ I just don't get it. Maybe because I loathe MJ, always have, I just don't see the appeal. But also in that montage his dance moves are so signature Michael and then there is a girl next to him not being like Madonna at all, non of the power or signature moves. There is so much they could have done with LAV and we get a mediocre MTV kind of tribute. The gag of having the "cake" stage and then not use it for that song is making me laugh so loud. But let's not dwell on that. The deep cuts on this show are amazing, as well as her defiance to simply play her biggest hits but play the ones she feels tell her story the best is daing and impressive. Now I just have to figure out what is the best place to be in the GA floor.

sara94 2,307 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Even the german version of Daily Mail, the BILD praised her show. Not 1 negative word. And these mf'er are usually so mean.

EgoRod 5,506 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 It will be interesting do a dissection and analysis per segments and see how many references and what eras were involved. Frozen is not there but the video and costume is when she does rain, and those are pretty symbolic. Like the massive disco-ball (Confessions Tour / Girlie Show) the boxing in Erotica like in Girlie Show but also Hard Candy cover . The avian bottle. A reference of Express Yourself might be missing but her feminist message is present. She never did Material Girl seriously so I can see why she skip it. It's like True Blue, it might be symbolic from an era but they age apart from her career somehow.

cake 322 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Madonna looks great without that big booty (which almost killed her i think it's pretty clear now). I would prefer hits performed in original form with live band but if M wants to make things relevant with Beyonce Sam Smith tokisha etc she can do whatever she wants. She's the Queen!

Ayham 5,525 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 I watched it live! It’s awesome and she looked amazing!!! But I didn’t like Hung Up and the ending was a bit a mess. I’m super happy she did Erotica/Bad Girl/Bedtime Stories! Those were my favorites!!! 😍😍😍 also I Will Survive was a highlight! Interesting how she added this song after what happened last June!

johncba 15 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Putting aside our different opinions, I think we should all celebrate today. I'm sure Madonna means a lot to each one of us and the fact that she's still with us and still inspiring us is pretty great. I won't lie, I was initially nervous of how she would perform, but I was glad to watch videos of her performing once more. Also, I know this is supposed to be a celebratory show, but in a way it feels kind of bittersweet to me too. In some form it feels like a reckoning with mortality and the passing of time.

Some Madonna fans have come down quite harshly on other Madonna fans who believe in Jackson’s innocence, but obviously, she hasn't cancelled him. Madonna, Prince and Michael Jackson formed a pop royalty trinity in the 80s. Glad it is acknowledged. That medley, esp. w/ the inclusion of "Angel," is nice nod to The Virgin Tour. Maybe next time Like a Virgin will be revisited again. Kae-Leah Williamson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steady75 9,630 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 Was it just me or when the pictures of her husbands and lovers came on the screen there was a picture of Ingrid on the right screen laying back in a suit? I can’t see it clearly enough. If so this is the first time she has openly admitted this. Honey Little 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adriabs 264 Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 I cried and screamed so much watching that livestream, I still can't believe she's given us THIS much, this is a career show for the FANS. Sure I missed EY and Frozen, but Live to Tell, Bad Girl, Rain and Mother and Father feel like a fever dream, so surreal, too good to be true.
