  1. More info. I have some good news and some bad news. Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane confirmed and locked in. Definitely happening. Perth may not. Live Nation needs maximum yield per show to turn a profit and it's doubtful that they can fly the whole thing over to the West Coast just for a couple of shows at a mid-sized arena and still make money, considering the transport costs and how much $$$ Madonna and her team require. So it's likely now that Perth will be scrapped and the tour restricted to the East Coast, with Perth replaced by an East Coast winery show or shows. To me, this is absolutely crazy - I just can't imagine Madonna doing a f*cking winery show, it's the kind of thing a 'heritage act' does in their twilight years - but apparently some big artists have done it and wineries are increasingly becoming a major vector in the Australian concert market. Also, winery shows can easily host 10,000+ - in some cases over 20,000 - so the capacity is akin to an arena or even a small stadium. I'm still shocked at the idea though.

    The other thing I can reveal is that the tour is ending in Australia, which is pretty cool IMO. There aren't many Asian dates and there will be no South American dates.

    So it will be Japan only? :1251:

  2. OK, so big news. Lots has changed since my last post an agreement has been reached and she'll now be giving us a proper tour. She will now be visiting four cities - Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth - and will be in Australia for almost a month. At this stage, the tour dates will be announced on Tuesday, June 9. *Maybe* earlier but definitely no later than that. It's happening! :)

    O M G!!!! :shock:

  3. My thoughts exactly, haters have always said this Dance chart is the shittiest of all BB charts and that it means zero...

    And yet they claimed the Top ringtone chart is one of the most relevant chart when their fav made it to #1. :manson:

  4. Did your career change at that point? Were you suddenly getting a million phone calls from everyone saying "We need to work with you. Can you produce my record?" Was it sort of an overnight thing for you?

    No. I was really, really busy up until that point anyway

    I didn't mean to insinuate that you weren't. [Laughs.]

    No, no, no the only thing that did change was everybody, of course, was like, "Can you make it sound like 'Vogue?'" [Laughs.] And I wasn't in the habit of repeating myself. I mean there's a certain groove to it that I carried into some of the Janet Jackson remixes and a couple others. But never recreated it. I'm sure you're aware of how record companies want everything to sound like your best last thing.

    So Janet was inspired by M.

    OK. :rosey:

  5. I think at that point they were going to [make it a] b-side for Keep It Together, but once executives heard the track, The attitude was like, This isn't gonna be a b-side. How can we get this out there? It found a home on Madonnas Dick Tracy-inspired Im Breathless album, and became the sets lead single -- and her eighth Hot 100 No. 1.

    Proven IB is not a soundtrack!

    Thank you Shep!
