Madonna - 2012 World Tour

[JadeFan]

If she chooses to put the Express Yourself performance on DVD/CD, then I'm sure the writers and producers can ask for some sort of credit? Isn't that what happened to RCA when they wanted to interpolate Cheryl Lynn's 'Got To Be Real' in 'Come On Over Baby (All I Want Is You)' on the single?

"Make Over" also wasn't included on the Stripped DVD due to it's similarities with "Overload"...

[Karma]

WelI, I suppose if it's an issue than she could just not perform Born This Way on the date that she films...

Have tickets been dispatched yet?

I got my Edinburgh tickets a week ago!

[jk-ennedy]

No, it was due to the dispute - the publishing company for the Overload writers were contesting Linda Perry and fighting for royalties, so Perry's publishing company asked it be pulled from the DVD. I don't think it even went to court, as it was conceded that royalties be split for the song and they were all added as writers on ASCAP, etc.

I would think this great opening with Girl Gone Wild might put the song on the charts or at least drive sales up on the song.

[integrity]

I still can't believe how good the tour opening is with confessional box. The Confessions Tour disco ball was amazing and probably more spectacular but this has more thematic elements behind it and really has a feeling of classic Catholic Madonna. The opening and the Gang Bang set definitely give me Blonde Ambition vibes in terms of it being theatrical.

[nevermind]

I just came back from the show! I was the one who tweeted about people fainting. Haha it's true. It's my first ever Madonna show and fuck how the hell does she do this? It was all pure workout!

Some bullets of what I saw from where I was at the Gold Circle, left side. Please bear in mind that it's MY FIRST EVER MADONNA CONCERT

- Guy Oseary was creepily everywhere. One time I shouted at him "Stop tweeting, Guy!" And he just winked at me. Jerk

- Rocco was sooooo cute, I saw Mercy and David too, I wasn't sure but I thought I saw Lourdes too

- Back to Rocco, he had so many appearances on the concert. And we all think Lola is the next star/Madonna, but hell no, Rocco is

- Her mic slipped her hand during Girl Gone Wild, it became obvious she was lipping. Cute though because she laughed at herself

- The imagery was toooo dark

- The CHEEKS are so obvious for real

- She was so affected by the heat. One time she said "This shit is HOT, This shit is HOT, motherfuckers!" (pointing to her pussy)

- Why was she sooo late? The organizer's sucks huge donkey balls. I was lining up at 5pm, gates opened at 8pm, Benassi played sooo long, Madonna came on at 10:30

- A lot of fights broke out on stage, so much fainting too. And there were a lot of kids WTF!

- Choose your seating carefully, if you're at the Golden Circle, go up the one nearest to the front ramp so you'll have a full view of her

- The entry to the pit in Abu Dhabi came with VIP tix, and some stupid iPad pointing raffle while the fans were queing

- IMO, i think she lipped a lot, but she had awesome voice when she sang live, especially with Masterpiece

- Don't get me wrong, it was the best concert I've ever seen, I cried during Like a Prayer, but I thought she was uncharacteristically stiff. Some in the crowd were commenting that age seems to be already getting to her. She also seemed so tired.

- Still, it was well worth it. Will defo watch her again.

Haha, she's amazing.

[Jayna]

Well, in fairness to her. the heat was unbearable. I know she doesn't like AC. But in this heat even they thought she was crazy not to accept the air-conditioners on stage. Anybody would drop in their energy in her costumes dancing and such. At 53, even in great shape, that's pretty remarkable.

[etienne]

The initial shows usually are a bit wooden. Compare Japan blond ambition show to The France Nice and see the difference!

I can see why Linda wanted to pass Overload off as her own work. I'm sure every other major pop music composer wants to do the same.

[Kirkland]

I've just read what Madonna said about the heat. I'm in tears of laughter. Amazing.

She didn't want any air-condition?? This woman is tough.


Argh, just had to cancel my ticket 'sigh' because of a job offer.
Might be going to Berlin on the 30th instead now because that's a Saturday. Although it's about a 4 hour drive away from me.
But I can't help it, this tour seems too good to miss it.
Someone said there's no golden triangle there. It looked like there was a catwalk instead, is that true?

[Kirkland]

Nothing stops Madonna. She's a force of nature. You only have to watch Truth or Dare to see how she deals with people trying to prevent her tour.

[nevermind]

I remember she once said she doesn't like AC because it's bad for her voice and metabolism.

[Kirkland]

Marine Le Pen and her right-wing posse aren't happy with Madonna. Marine is threatening to sue her if she puts a swastika on her face again when she performs in France. Brave heart, Madonna.

Irrelevantdonna.

[PantoponRose]

She always picks the best people to piss off!

[Kirkland]

Marine is obviously terrified for her political career now The Queen is pissed off with her.

Look what happened to Lady Gaga! One pretentious zealot at a time!
