HolidayGuy Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I will have to come back to this- some are obvious ones for me, but others, it's tougher, because she wasn't as elaborate as she started to be starting in 1990. So, do we keep that in mind and not "penalize" them for their lesser ambition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, do we keep that in mind and not "penalize" them for their lesser ambition? I suppose you can if you want to. At the end of the day, it's your call. I wasn't as 'harsh' on the pre-Blond Ambition ones as I could have been because, as you said, it's a little unfair to do that. By the same token, however, I was perhaps harsher on some of the post-BAT tours (Re-Invention, I'm looking at you ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

material_boy Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Favourite Madonna tour of all time: Drowned World Least Favourite Madonna tour: Virgin Best tour DVD/Blu-Ray: Sticky and Sweet Worst tour DVD/Blu-Ray: Confessions * I've awarded this to Confessions for its outrageous editing and special effects, which made the show look more like a music video than a live recording. But I'd like to take this moment to offer Dishonorable Mentions to Blond Ambition and Reinvention for not even being released. Best tour live vocals: Girlie Show Worst tour live vocals: Sticky and Sweet Best costumes: Blond Ambition Worst costumes: Reinvention Best choreography: Blond Ambition Worst choreography: Virgin Best live band: Girlie Show Worst live band: Confessions Best setlist: Drowned World Tour Worst setlist: MDNA Best stage design & art direction: MDNA Worst stage design & art direction: Reinvention Best dancers: Girlie Show Worst dancers: Who's that Girl Best hair & make-up: Blond Ambition Worst hair & make-up: MDNA Your overall favourite segment within all of her tours: Blond Ambition church segment (including "Like a Virgin" intro) Your overall least favourite segment within all of her tours: MDNA opening segment * I understand this will be an unpopular opinion here. I'm sorry to all those who disagree. Which tour do you wish you had been to see live (if you haven't been to all of them)? Girlie Show If you could change one thing about the way Madonna puts on a live show, what would that be? The band. Her bands have become so disconnected from the show that they're feeling a bit mechanical. I'd love to see her disengage from the high tech and highly-choreographed spectacles she's done with Sticky and MDNA and do something more funky and organic. I'm not sure the music she's made in the past 15 years would allow her to go full-on funk the way she did in the Girlie Show, but I think she strike a balance between a tightly-choreographed spectacle and an organic give-and-take with the band.

Sloane Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Favourite Madonna tour of all time: don't have one; love 'em all Least Favourite Madonna tour: Confessions w/ exception of Future Lovers Best tour DVD/Blu-Ray: Worst tour DVD/Blu-Ray: Best tour live vocals: BAT Worst tour live vocals: Sticky & Sweet Best costumes: BAT Worst costumes: Girlie Show Best choreography: can't say, each has brilliance and not so brilliant Worst choreography: Confessions w/ exception of Future Lovers Best live band: Who's That Girl Worst live band: idk, don't pay attention to that stuff quite frankly Best setlist: Drowned World Worst setlist: Who's That Girl Best stage design & art direction: BAT Worst stage design & art direction: idk Best dancers: MDNA Worst dancers: Who's That Girl Best hair & make-up: Sticky & Sweet Worst hair & make-up: Girlie Show Your overall favourite segment within all of her tours: Express Yourself, BAT Your overall least favourite segment within all of her tours: Dick Tracy, BAT Which tour do you wish you had been to see live (if you haven't been to all of them)? Virgin Tour If you could change one thing about the way Madonna puts on a live show, what would that be? Spastic dancing trying to pass itself off as choreography, such as breathing heavy, crawling on stage, being overly dramatic while doing this. Future Lovers from Confessions is an EXCELLENT example of well thought out choreo that wasn't overly energetic for the sake of appearing youthful. It was just complex and beautiful to look at. I'd like to see more of that Madonna rather than "watch my booty get down" Sticky and Sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
