  1. But that's the thing, and Bluejean hit it on the head... there's nothing wrong with doing the 'good girl gone bad' shtick. Fine. Just put together a performance that is actually good, well choreographed and staged, etc.

    I feel like so many seem to think that we're criticizing Miley for wanting to shed her past image. No, we're not. She wants to grow up and get rid of that...fine!

    Just put together a better performance. Because the other night, it was a fucking mess...and no where near the level of what M or Brit have done in the past.

    And if people think it's all the same thing, than my my how the bar has fallen.

  2. Who the fuck would want that? We can just buy it on iTunes and burn it ourselves

    I know, it's sounds kind of ridiculous. I could be a bit wrong on exactly what it is and how they do it, but I remember looking for a hard to find disc that I thought might be out of print, and Amazon had it...but only through this CD-R program thing. So I read up a bit on what it was, and thought, hmmmm, that's kind of weird.

    I guess it makes sense for out-of-print things though.

  3. So is the CD going to be released in the US after all?

    http://www.amazon.com/MDNA-World-Tour-Madonna/dp/B00E3D7WGU/ref=sr_1_9?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1377303844&sr=1-9&keywords=mdna+tour

    And that the fuck does this mean?

    "This product is manufactured on demand using CD-R recordable media."

    Amazon has a somewhat new program where certain music items are not sold as manufactured by the record company. They give Amazon essentially the digital files (or something like that), and Amazon burns it to a CD-R for you (if you order that particular item that way). I know, sounds ridiculous right...thing is, the CD-R thing Amazon is doing is usually for very rare, or out-of-print music items. I have yet to see it offered for a new release like this, particularly something that is already getting a professional physical cd release overseas.

    Weird.

  4. Yes, a lot less of fake screaming audience.

    You can find it on madonnachile (I don't know the policy about posting torrent links for yet-to-be-commercially-released-material here)

    Interesting. Do they have a link to just the audio...or is it only video?

    I highly doubt different markets are going to get different versions. That would just be...weird.

  5. A live concert mastered for a CD is different for a live concert mastered for a dvd. Audio rip from dvds are usually shitty no matter how loud the music is.

    That is usually true. But I've noticed with several "live cds" I have of fairly recent concerts, the sound seems no different than the mixing for the Blu-Ray/DVD. Like the engineer or record company was just lazy and just ripped it from the film. I think some artists get lazy and do that.

  6. It's an unpopular opinion, but I love the song. It grew on me. Now I can't stop playing it.

    Is it one of her better more recent singles? Hell no. But if you take it as it is...a fun, frivolous pop song...it's just, fun. Far worse pop crap all over the radio anyway...and if a younger artist had done it, it probably would have been a decent hit with some radio play.

    The tour version is amazing. And it was a great opener for the show. I remember playing it in the car one day, and my mother was like "who is this...is this Madonna?" I was expecting her to not like it...but she was like "hey, burn me a copy of this!" LOL!!!!!!!

    Now the video... that was perfection.

  7. Clearly a more up to date one than you, because as far as I'm aware, the last time GRILLZ were fashionable, 50 cent ruled the charts and everyone wanted a Furby for Christmas.

    :semifunny:

    Well, you were the one acting like you didn't know what they were. So, no, you're not more up to date than me. And I never said I liked them either.

    I couldn't give a fuck about the grillz. I have no real opinion about them either way. It's her downtime, she can do whatever she wants. She's having fun. Big deal. Get over it.

    :madgemanson:

  8. What actually is with the DISGUSTING gum shield thing? I hadn't commented because I thought it was just some nuts thing she did for Instagram one time, but WEARING IT in PUBLIC? I don't get it, is that a trend? Have we gone back in time 10 years and found ourselves in the Kelis 'Bossy' video? Sort yourself out woman.

    Boy, what era are you living in?

  9. Just shows the difference between the generations ( I'm assuming you are a young'en :) and part of a throw away society. I actually feel sorry for you guys never really knowing the rush one gets when they come home with a record or cd or even with us oldies, cassettes ( look it up:) ripping the packaging off and putting it in the player and pressing pla.

    You know what they say when you "assume"......

    I am not a "young'en" or part of any "throw away society." I don't need to "look up" anything...I grew up buying all the music I loved on cassette, cd, box sets, etc, collecting all my favorites...but more so starting with vinyl that me and my father use to go and get at the smelly, dusty old music store...waiting in lines... feeling the anticipation... and peeling back the wrapper as I sat in the car salivating over what was inside...the smell of a fresh album...the artwork on the sleeves...knowing how to use a record player all by myself at barely a few years old. I may have been very young then but I LIVED during that era...and I LIVED for it. I miss those days.

    I just also happen to be someone that enjoys technology and moving forward, and embraces digital as well.

    Yes, it's nice to have both digital and physical formats, but I still stand by my original statement. If digital is all that was available, and I still want to support the artist (particularly if it's one of my favorites), it takes now no more than a few minutes (not even) to click a button and buy an album. "One less sale" simply because it's 'digital only' reeks of a whiny kid having a tantrum.
