Madonna has decided to tour again this year! Hopefully she’ll play more venues so I can finally get some tix! Not a big fan of her songs, but she can certainly set up a mindblowing live show.

Israel?
What is it with big bands and artists that they wanna do the frekiest places for their concerts?
I bet she’s gonna go to Spain, Italy, Germany, France and the UK for Europe. Sweden would be an ultimate dream come true - - let alone our poor Finland...

She won’t do Canada, either... she’s had something against us since we tried to have her arrested for lewd conduct in Toronto (-: C’mon, Madonna, we’re *sorry*, it won’t happen again, you could give free lapdances if you want to and nobody will complain! (-: Really wish she’d do at least one Canadian date, though... )-:

Obviously in need of money? I highly doubt it. And I don’t think she ever said her last tour would be her last one ever. I think that’s just what many fans thought since it took her 8 years to tour again.
I’m glad she’s touring again. With ’American Life’ getting no more attention whatsoever, I’m surprised she decided to tour now. I would like to go see her.
Vixzter said on March 10, 2004 06:41:
I can remember her clearly stating that her last tour would be her last.
Vixzter said on March 10, 2004 06:46:
I also remember te tickets being a ridiculous price, hence the reason why I didn’t go...... £80 for a cheap seat?..... I don’t call that cheap.

absolutemadonna.com news quote:
“Montreal and Toronto are on the itinerary, but deals are still being worked out. She’s confirmed for Toronto, San Francisco, Scotland, Israel and Italy. That’s all I know. “

Montreal :D can’t wait
and now we can also expect Annie Lennox and Sting together this summer ;)
no need to travel to Sweden for some good concerts!

yeah the prices in 2001 were high, but well, once in a life time.. (or twice :P)
I don’t remember hearing that was her last tour though, well, if she did say that, good she changed her mind :)
Roxlander said on March 10, 2004 17:54:
Only in my dreams I will see Madonna in concert :-( I’d pay any price, but Costa Rica is one of the last places she would think to be.
Vixzter said on March 10, 2004 18:19:
@Judith: she’s good....but personaly I don’t think anyone is worth paying £80 for.
Jud (moderator) said on March 10, 2004 19:13:
well I didn’t pay that much.. Barcelona was cheaper :) I think I payed 60€, bout 41 pounds?
Actually the prices here in Austria are C R A Z Y... concerts start with 40-45€ if you are lucky.. Kylie costed over 70, the Corrs concert in summer costs 60€.. i mean?????
When I moved here I thought “hm nice, then i won’t have to drive about 160km to barcelona + back to see an artist” yeah - right! Concerts that in spain cost 30-35€, here cost 20€ more :(
I think the only person I would have payed that much money for would have been Frank Sinatra.
Vixzter said on March 10, 2004 20:16:
I’d still like to see Madge though, think she’d be great live just hope tix are less this time ;)
Kylie tix weren’t so bad here its just they sold out in about 10 mins and then you had to pay ebay prices ;)
Shania Twain has sold out here aswell and tickets for her shows on ebay are just stupid

@animalkingdom: Hey, thanks for the info! Hope it ends up that way... stupid me, I moved to Vancouver just in time for Madonna to play Toronto (-:

StillFar said on March 23, 2004 14:37:
guys: help needed!!! Is anyone member of the Madonna Icon Fan Club????
animalkingdom said on March 24, 2004 13:49:
Expected numbers at the shows:
1 Bedtime Story
2 Skin
3 Justify My Love
4 Hollywood
5 Live to Tell
6 Nothing Really Matters
7 Borderline
8 Vogue
9 Crazy For You
10 Material Girl
11 Nobody Knows Me
12 Take A Bow
13 Die Another Day (instrumental)
So there’s plenty of room for other songs too... But if I were her I would perform at least American Life, Love Profusion and Nothing Fails from the current album. Also, a little bit of “Erotica” would do good! :)
animalkingdom said on March 24, 2004 18:24:
@ Markuz
Well, she intends to play plain album tracks such as Skin and minor hits like Bedtime Story so I guess your hope is not lost! Besides, I’ll Remember was a success (selling gold and peaking at 2 in the US and spending two weeks at 1 in Japan). A hit like that would go along with Vogue and Material Girl that are being rehearsed.
StillFar said on March 24, 2004 19:32:
@Judith: how did you get your tickets last time. It seems almost impossible to get hold of tickets, if you don’t want to end up paying 500 - 600 $ on ebay :(
btw, more dates will be added to the list. So there are chances she’ll tour Austria ;)
animalkingdom said on April 3, 2004 17:00:
More songs possibly to be included in the set:
- Bad Girl (wooooohooooo!!!!!)
- American Life
- X-static Process
- Ray Of Light
- Deeper And Deeper (wooooohooooo!!!!!)
- Like A Prayer
Lyrics to Vogue are apparently altered: she’s changed Grace Kelly and Fred Astaire to Britney Spears and Kylie Minogue...
Vixzter said on March 9, 2004 17:55:
Obviously in need of money ;) as the last tour was supposed to be her last world tour ;P
