Madonna Madness at MSG
It’s concert week for me!
I just got back from seeing Madonna at the Garden. Personally, I’m not a huge fan of hers (although her new album is fun), but my friend had free tickets in the skybox, so I agreed to go along. Plus, I knew it was going to be a big party. They served champagne instead of popcorn and beer, the crowd was mostly men… the fun gay kind, and everyone danced like mad and sang the entire time.
I have to admit it was actually a well done show. There were some problems with the sound for a few songs, but she is definitely entertaining. She opened the show by coming out a GIANT disco ball wearing some fun S&M gear – the same gear she wore for the photo shoot with W Magazine. The rest of the show was filled with acrobatics, crazy flexible back-up dancers, her infamous crucifix act, some political “stuff”, and lots of 70’s flashbacks.
For those interested in the song list, here it is:
Future Lover
I Feel Love
Get Together
Like a Virgin
Jump
Live to Tell
Forbidden Love
Isaac
Sorry
Like it or Not
I Love New York
Ray of Light
Let it Will Be
Substitute for Love
Paradise

La Isla Bonita
Lucky Star
Hung Up
Tomorrow, I’m off to Hudson River Park to see Si*Se.

Can you imagine singing the same songs for twenty five years? She must be sick of La Isla Bonita! I’ve only heard it ten times or so and I’m sick of it.
Do your “friends” read the blog?
sorry that was meant for the atm friend post.
Anna – I was VERY surprised when she started singing La Isla Bonita. I never realized it was ever all that popular. Oh well, what do I know.
