Such an incredible show. This is when I became a fan and I always wished it visited Australia.
I was so excited seeing the doco for the first time too.

2024 marks TWENTY years since The Re-Invention Tour.  I know many fans loved this tour.  I know I did!  I attended three shows with my very best friend @Voguerista  We had a BLAST!!  I recall one show we were approached by the venue for better seats near the stage.  We jumped at the chance. I still remember how I felt when Madonna was performing "Don't Tell Me" and she was staring and pointing right at me.  Of course, she could have been pointing at anyone in my section, but I still felt like I locked eyes with Madonna.  What a moment to have!  So let's share our favorite moments from this tour and feel free to take the poll I provided here, sharing your favorite segment from the tour.  Feel free to share other fun tidbits of your memories from this tour. There were FIVE acts, so which was your favorite.  Feel free to share your experience with this tour. Love to hear your stories.  And react with a HEART if you think this tour needs a full official release beyond the documentary "I'm Going Tell You A Secret"!

Yes at Wembley Arena for the confessions tour my mate and where right next to the runway and got high fived by Madonna... as I jumped up my little finger got caught under her kabbalah string!! She chuckled! At the same concert we were sat next to William Orbit. It was also around the time we had heard liquid love. We said to him we had heard it and thought it was great! He said share it , get it out there , get it heard! As we were leaving he said Madonna had really fed off our energy! He then said he was off to go meet her! Unfortunately he couldn't take us lol!  Totally great night!

"Like A Prayer" FUCKING MERGED!
Watch all the ones criticizing us for demanding the minimum and the basics to celebrate this fact in 1, 2...

They merged LAP album/celebration/Deadpool EP
Now let's wait for the rest of the catalog #soon

Her current Spotify Top 10 already reflects the "Like A Prayer" merging, meaning the album version becomes the main "LAP" version highlighted, instead of the "Celebration" version:

Which feels just RIGHT.

The cherry on top would be a better master from the audio (and not that compressed piece of shit from FELL)

Would be awesome!! 

That’s incredibly important. If they remaster the EP to sound like OYH did on FEL, it would be like having nothing. OYH was probably the song most destroyed by the remastering on FEL.

'I swear its all I can think about'
So we know a couple of big ones are on their way; Causing A Commotion and True Blue. The main important ones we don't have any info on are Dress You Up and Open Your Heart, both would give us something new especially if they include the remix edits.
Then would also be cool to have Holiday, Like A Virgin, Crazy For You and Live To Tell mainly for 7" edits; don't know if they'll ever update the Borderline 7" mix though.
 

Love love LOVE this track!!!!

Except for "Voices" (and that's an artistic choice really), "Hard Candy" is immaculately produced (talking about production and sound, not the actual songs). In that regard it s**ts over every other studio album she has released after.

March 26, 2025 is my guess?  Next year's anniversary of the single release date.  Or never if the eventual single release only includes the album version.  
Maybe also on a True Blue expanded edition, which is also likely never .  (kidding)

Looks like Apple Music is giving us above CD quality on some Madonna releases then 🙏🏼

Did Erotica really didn't meet the expectations or people actually were outarged by SEX and Body of Evidence that preceded Erotica, which resulted in boycotting the album? I mean Erotica itslef without SEX book background is just an album named Erotica. Some lyrics might be perceived as dirty but finally in lyrics wise they're just wordplay.

Same I looove Erotica the song, but as a single, I much prefer the remixes!

16bit/44.1kHZ is CD quality industry standard. It would probably be slightly noticeable at 24bit/48 kHZ that's usually what most sessions would be done at and then bounced to CD, LP, digital. 24bit/44.1kHZ is arbitrary, I'm not sure the average listener's ears are that good. 
However it is very clear that Spotify need to at least improve their sound quality, its pretty poor still if Apple can give us CD quality at least.

MDNA was made for Susan Thomas, not Madonna. This is my bet.

Some albums, (LAP, HC, Confessions, etc.) appear to have most songs updated to 24bit/44.1kHZ as opposed to 16bit/44.1kHZ  previously on Apple Music. Are you guys seeing that too? Do they actually sound better(er)? Do you see EY and 4 minutes still only in 16bit/44.1 in their related albums?

MDNA is a good album, particularly the main 12 tracks. Production choices just let it down, but still enjoyable if you just take it for what it was at the time. 2012 was challenging sonically in general haha. I still enjoy it though

I wouldn't want it any other way.  It's just another time stamp in her life.  The tour that followed was spectacular (not so much the film concert release).

Good goin', stranger!
