Cherish Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I'll be pissed off if all she's doing is more European shows in 2009. We Aussie fans have been waiting since 1993, I think we're owed a tour from Madge! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markm Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I think her show is too expensive to take to Australia. She charges about 2 million per show. It would be really difficult for promoters to make a profit. Besides she can make more dollar touring Europe. It a business decision if she decides not to go to Australia.

Mad_On_Her Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I doubt Madonna will tour Australia. This keeps coming up with every tour Madonna does and it never transpires. Constantly "Madonna will tour Australia next time" type of thing. I think most Aussie fans have given up hope of a Madonna tour. Too bad for Madonna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Danny86 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I guess the whole second part of S&ST was planned in advance, but the Australian dates fell out as we heard in the press a month ago, so round 2 of the tour got relegated to Europe...

Guest Coked Up Baby Boy Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I'm sure if Lola has to change her undies Madonna will want to be there for that, so i doubt she'll come. Hope so though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mmmm... interesting. Perhaps you're right. As in she cleared her schedule to tour Australia this summer but the economy meant she's substituted the shows for Europe.

Nightshade Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I am praying on behalf of Australian fans that she goes there. I really don't understand her problem with Australia. She may claim economic crisis this time but what about Confessions, Reinvention or Drowned World? She should just come out and say, "You're too far away and my private jet isn't comfortable enough for me to put in the 20 hours it takes to get there. Sorry, douche bags."

Guest Danny86 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 This is from a Madonna Tribe webmaster, I think it answers the question: well Tribe always said it was a 2008-2009 tour, they never announced the 2009 leg until now, but we know she was planning to visit Japan and they had deals almost done to tour Australia the latter did not materialize, and this is for sure a smaller amount of money than they planned plus, Madonna it is not only "signed" at a record label now, she is in partnership with Live Nation If Live Nation goes down financially, so does Madonna last thing is, is they announce the itinerary this week it is likely that they will have the biggest income in their pockets (i.e., the sale of the O2 shows, if she does any) as soon as the next week this is better than any remortgage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carta Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I guess the whole second part of S&ST was planned in advance, but the Australian dates fell out as we heard in the press a month ago, so round 2 of the tour got relegated to Europe... That makes sense. Australian dates were confirmed for January and the contracts were about to be signed but it all fell apart. It makes sense that she'd shift the second leg to Europe during the summer. The September dates for Australia do look feasible, though! Maybe we'll be lucky this time! P!nk will have finished her record-breaking tour here by that stage (43 shows and counting) - it will be time for Madonna to reclaim her attendance record .

Carta Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Oz would be too cold for her to tour during this period of time. It's spring - lots of people get married in that exact two week period because the weather is so nice. It can be cold in the southern states, yes, but generally, you'd be looking at temps in the low 20s right across the country at that time of the year.

Guest Danny86 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Hey, it seems Australia might be happening after all: http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,2...65-2902,00.html Madonna, Britney Spears set to tour Australia in 2009 PEOPLE power - and a large cheque - have reportedly lured Madonna Down Under after she dodged Australia on her previous three tours. And pop fans could also see Britney Spears for the first time. A Madonna show at Telstra Dome has been pencilled in for September 29 and is tipped to be confirmed this week. The Telstra Dome date - a Tuesday - would not clash with the venue's AFL commitments. Fans may have to shell out $150 for the cheapest seats, given the falling Australian dollar and Madonna's high production costs. Seats closest to the stage could sell for as much as $400. The itinerary was posted on her promoter's website, Live Nation, yesterday. It listed shows in Brisbane, Sydney and Perth, as well as Europe and Japan, before being swiftly removed. Madonna will extend her 2008 Sticky and Sweet tour - which became one of the highest-grossing tours in history, making $420 million - to visit places she missed last year. Fan forums are already suggesting the diva should ditch many of the songs from the flop Hard Candy album for a greatest hits set. Her Australian promoter Michael Coppel yesterday refused to comment. Madonna's last Australian tour was in 1993. Several Australian promoters are negotiating to bring Britney Spears to Australia for the first time, also in September. Dates have been tentatively discussed for indoor shows in Melbourne and Sydney, as well as New Zealand. Insiders say Spears' Circus tour will be one of the biggest productions to play indoor venues in Australia. Britney's world tour begins in New Orleans in March. Ticket sales for the tour have already reached 600,000. AC/DC are also tipped to perform at Telstra Dome at the end of 2009. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cherish Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 I'll believe it when I see something official from either Madonna's people or the promoter. Right now it sounds to me like another unfounded rumour. And if she DID tour Australia, you really think Madge would dump the HARD CANDY songs from the set list?

Mad_On_Her Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Don't get your hopes up guys. Touring at that time of year isn't the best either, September in Sydney and Melbourne is still quite cold for outdoor concerts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOUR2008 Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Madonna and Britney Spears both touring Australia this year By Kathy McCabe The Daily Telegraph January 29, 2009 12:01am Text size + - Print Email Share Add to MySpace Add to Digg Add to del.icio.us Add to Fark Post to Facebook Add to Kwoff What are these? Superstars ... Madonna and Britney Spears are both expected to play Australian dates in September Madonna, Britney Aussie tour dates leaked Material girl last played Australia in 1993 Pictures: Madonna at 50 IT'S back on again: Madonna is expected to tour Australia in September. Now the dust has settled on her divorce, her Madgesty confirmed on her website yesterday she was extending the Sticky And Sweet world tour, The Daily Telegraph reports. While the official statement confirms she is "looking forward to an amazing summer in Europe", prospective concert dates in Japan and Australia were leaked on her international promoter's site before being quickly pulled. But not before they were sighted by eagle-eyed fans, who posted the dates on fan blogs. The leaked itinerary featured four Australian concerts with Madonna scheduled to perform at Sydney's ANZ Stadium on September 26. A Madonna show at Melbourne's Telstra Dome has been pencilled in for September 29 and is tipped to be confirmed this week. Related Coverage That outfit's a shocker!

Kylie sooooo puts on a better live show then both of them.. (Read More) Shaun of Melbourne The Telstra Dome date - a Tuesday - would not clash with the venue's AFL commitments. Fans may have to shell out $150 for the cheapest seats, given the falling Australian dollar and Madonna's high production costs. Seats closest to the stage could sell for as much as $400. The website also listed shows in Brisbane and Perth, as well as Europe and Japan, before being swiftly removed. The last time Madonna performed in Australia was for the 1993 Girlie Show tour at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Also leaked and then removed from the same Live Nation website were details of the next leg of Britney Spears' world tour - and it looks like the comeback pop princess and Madonna will both be in Australia in September. Spears was slated to perform three concerts at Sydney's Acer Arena - right next door to the ANZ Stadium where Madonna is booked. While their proximity would fuel a frenzy of speculation about cameos at each other's shows, it is unlikely Madonna or Spears' jam-packed schedules would allow for an Australian duet. Local fans and promoters have been willing the dollar to improve to safeguard Australia as a must-do destination on the international touring circuit for the huge stadium acts. With sales of more than 400,000 tickets for more than 40 shows, Pink has singlehandedly demonstrated that music fans here are determined to be entertained despite hard economic times. Rock fans remain optimistic that AC/DC, Bruce Springsteen, Metallica and U2 also add Australian legs onto their international tours this year. - With the Herald Sun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Coked Up Baby Boy Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 The Aussie media is taking this all a bit too excitedly i think, nothing has OFFICIALLY been announced yet, so i think we should all wait till Live Nation actually says it themselves. Going off a so called "list" that appeared on the site which people saw [and magically didn;t take a screen cap of] isn't enough to go gaga over.................not yet. We'll find out soon enough though. With Britney and Midge here over the course of a week during the same month, Australia will be in pop star madness! i won;t know what to do with myself! i will simply run around in circles screaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carta Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Cameron Adams clearly doesn't read forums or take much notice of worldwide sales. Yes, forum members have suggested dropping a couple of HC tracks (most notably Spanish Lesson), but it's hardly as though they've been suggesting that she drop most of the tracks! As for HC being a flop, how can one of the highest selling albums of the year across the entire planet be considered a flop? If S&S makes it to Australia in September, its current tracklist would be a massive crowd pleaser. Lots of Australian #1 singles (Vogue, LAP, 4M, HU, ITG), lots of Top 20 singles (Borderline, YMLM, LIB, ROL, HN, DADay) and a show that's just downright good fun. This show would be a bigger hit with Australian audiences than CT would have been. Fingers crossed!!! The rumoured dates in September coincide perfectly with my holidays.....which would be amazing!!!
