Man, "Music" was HUGE.

PLEASE GOD NO MUSIC OR HUNG UP OR RAY OF SHIT.

I think Madonna will release a pop/ballad album next and it will do much better. Her image this time was too gimicky for people to latch onto. Nobody thinks Madonna is a hardcore hip-hop slut. Nobody wants her to be that, either.
-
this will be filmed in b&w.
-
Oh, you already changed it. Nevermind.
-
how did someone change my post? that's a little invase, I think.
-
we all have to make sacrifices if we want to see Madonna. well, I don't, because I have money, but some people do. and if skipping a few meals gets them there, they should be okay with that. it's only 1 concert.
-
will everyone PLEASE stop complaining about ticket prices?? madonna can charge whatever she wants. those who can't afford it are just shit out of luck. get a job or something! those who can afford it, like me, are just cool and will have a good time. that's all there is to it. now go lag off.

I totally understand if someone can't afford the tickets and need to save their money for other things.
But that's no different from lots of other things. Lots of people can't afford designer clothes by Prada or an apartment in a certain neighborhood. That doesn't mean the people who make those clothes or build those apartments are somehow ripping people off. That's just life, and life isn't fair.
From what I see, the top price is the same. She hasn't gone up on the prices even though costs have gone up in those two years.
The only way I could see that she could make more affordable tickets is if she scaled down her show. One day it would be cool for her to sing with a band with less going on.
Sorry, I know it's an expensive, elaborate show, but rest assured, she has adjusted pricing so that she will still make a HUGE profit.

the first ever Madonna tour to not sell out. PERIOD. And the first ever to tank tank tank like a skank skank skank.

Well, obviously the tickets are not cheap. This is Madonna. And for some of us, there is more involved than just the ticket prices. I live in Maine, and you can bet Madonna will never play here, at least not until she's 60 or older. So I have to go to Boston or New York or wherever. But that's part of the fun, for me personally. It's going to be an event. Yes, I might have to make some adjustments to afford the concert, plane tickets, etc., but it's worth it for me as a fan.
I don't understand all the complaining re: concert prices and music in general. Singers need to make a living somehow. All of you people who don't buy music, download albums illegally, etc., this is partially to blame for high concert prices. It's also to blame, in part, for artists falling down the charts so quickly. People don't pay for music. I get laughed at for buying CDs. People don't seem to think they should have to pay for the work put out by recording artists.
I just think it's funny how, in America at least, people will put themselves in debt to buy a certain car, or spend one hundred dollars for a certain pair of jeans, yet you're going to bitch about the cost of a MADONNA CONCERT?! People drive their new vehicles and wear their trendy clothes like they are a badge, with no bitching about the cost. In fact, a lot of people are PROUD to announce how much they paid for a certain article of clothing. Then you're going to bitch about tickets to see the most important female artist in the history of the world? Just, no.
I agree to an extent with some of this, such as the reason why the ticket prices are increasing, but 1) Madonna doesn't need more money and 2) She would still make plenty of money if she charged $100/ticket instead of $400! She's a damn greedball who doesn't give a shit about her fans, and that's all it boils down to. Even in her speech at the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame, she went on and on for like 5 minutes about each person she was thanking and told stories, gushed over them, etc. Then, when it came time to thank her fans, she says "Thank you to all of my fans who have stuck by me through thick and thin (how many times has she said that?) and there sure has been a lot of thick!" or something like that. And that was it! She should have devoted the entire 20 minutes to US because without US, she would be NOBODY. All of those people who came and went in her career helped, but WE are the only reason she is still here today. But it's our fault, because she continues to treat us like shit and we keep coming back for more. Sorry for the rant...

says who?
it's all the rage

Disappointing ticket sales forces Madonna to reconsider world tour later this year.

Madonna's career is officially over.

Today she said "My career is officially over."

i just better not see any track pants on stage or I'll throw an Everlasting Gobstopper at her...one of the big ones, too.
-
I'd love if she did another Drowned World type tour...focus more on the Ray Of Light, Bedtime Stories Albums....and do a few Music Cuts...Like I Deserve It and WIFLFAG.....would like to see Amazing Live....just stick with the New and out with the old.....but I do love the reinvented versions of her eighties era songs.
and PLEASE DO BORDERLINE and CHERISH for crying out loud.
and show IM SO STUPID some love this time around.....Justify My Love?!?
sounds like a nightmarish snorefest to me, except for Borderline and Cherish.
I'd list all of your picks for songs you'd like to hear as songs I DON'T want to hear, but I'd also add "Candy Shop", "The Devil Wouldn't Recognize You", "Voices", "Hung Up", "Die Another Day", "and Voices that Care.

Can someone give me a quick recap of what's going on here and what's causing this uproar without having to go through 21 pages of comments?
-
Just like with every tour, she is going to add many more shows at those venues. Look at all the time between London and Paris. She'll probably do like 6 shows in London again like last time.
Thank God she's coming to Philly! She always does
Wonder how much tickets will be this time? Can we expect to pay upwards of $400 for the best seats?
-
what a horrible market. i could probably release an album tomorrow, send my mom out to buy it, and make the Top 200.

#1 for 3 weeks, first week 762,000

I try.Honestly, I don't hate Mariah, but I must admit I do get angry when I read posts from the Lambs at PULSE and UKMIX - exaggerating her record sales and what not. I think she is probably the "most-commercially-successful-yet-most-creatively-irrelevant singer" I've ever heard.
I won't lie though. I do like "Migrate" quite a bit.
That's because the general public is too stupid to appreciate creativity. They want catchy, safe, and dumbed-down. That's why Mariah is popular.

way to go, maddy
