Admittedly Madonna has not received the best press for this tour - what with some late starts and an incident involving one of her dancers.
But credit where credit is due. Seriously Madonna is still a major diva.
You cannot say that this woman does not give it her all. Sticky and Sweet may have had its sticky patches for Madge, but the show was sweeeeet!! (I know cheesy!)
The girl can move better than a twenty-something and it is so well planned you can see the professionalism just oozing from her. The sad thing about that is, although you are there in the same room (admittedly a very large room) with the woman herself, you still don't fel quite as close and involved as some shows I have been to. However this is not just a performance - it is a show and every detail is perfected!!
You simply could not go to this concert and come away without singing along to the album and going back to being that 12 year old girl with hair brush in their bedroom!!
Let's face it we all want to be Madonna and once again she has not let us down - she leave you still wanting more - lets hope there are more of her legendary tours to come.
Her tribute on the day of MJ's funeral was dignified absolutely on the money - appreciate people now, not when it is too late - was her message and you can tell that it was heartfelt and sincerely meant.
This was a fabulous show that I will always remember - expensive and I may have had to wait until my shall we say "twenty-somethings" to get to see Madonna live, but it was worth it. Seriously though Madge - why did you want everyone's te-shirts?
