mr_boogiewoogie Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 Rome - June 12 That's when things really start to get serious. She's expected to land later tonight. Those first four concerts were just a warm-up, you know.
mr_boogiewoogie Posted June 9, 2012 Author Posted June 9, 2012 She apparently landed a few minutes ago.
XXL Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 Prepare for youtube recordings of mass hysteria and the Tour Book and the videoshoot, next week is THE WEEK. Just watch the Italian media drooling all over her in speechless awe and devotion. Can't wait for the standardized press statements from a certain institution taking offence at some of the contents of the show too
Mat.Guy Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 The dancers have reported that they are already there, shes most likely there already May the Queen be with her Kingdom.
Love Spent Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 To those of you going to Italy, please don't forget about the Tour Book. Anyone know where they're staying?
Guest Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 Oh god I can't wait to see videos from this show. The audience is going to be AMAZING. I was amazed by the audience in Istanbul so I can only imagine how crazy this audience is going to be! ITALIANS DO IT BETTER!
Guest Fukujima Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 wish i was there in Rome like for Confessions...this time i will be in London but i'd love to go to Italy to see M again...there's a special atmosphere and lot of craziness going on lol a collegue of my sister will go to her Florence concert with her boyfriend, can't wait for the report
Louise Oriole Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 I wish Rome wasn't her first show since it's the one that was added last & probably the one that has sold less. The press will blow up if the place doesn't look packed.
dollhouse Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 Oh god I can't wait to see videos from this show. The audience is going to be AMAZING. I was amazed by the audience in Istanbul so I can only imagine how crazy this audience is going to be! ITALIANS DO IT BETTER! Wasn't this the first time she visited Turkey since the Girlie Show? and MDNA was a hit record there. Italy is probably her strongest market with Finland and Spain of course.

The press will blow up if the place doesn't look packed. Uhmmm i doubt it won't be packed! I went to Rome last month and GGW was playing everywhere all the time!
Kurt420 Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 Hopefully all the fan hysteria in Italy will inspire TITDONNA to make another appearance.
Guest Owenkeats Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 Hopefully all the fan hysteria in Italy will inspire TITDONNA to make another appearance. Hahahaha love it!
hyper Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 Hopefully all the fan hysteria in Italy will inspire TITDONNA to make another appearance. Maybe the tit flashing wasn't that spontaneous but a planned routine that she just cut for the first two "sensitive" stops of the tour ..?
mr_boogiewoogie Posted June 10, 2012 Author Posted June 10, 2012 It seems that there won't be any TUTR video shooting taking place in Rome. At least this is what the Italian press is stating today.
Carta Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 I'm sure I read somewhere that they were releasing new tickets for Rome, indicating that they'd reached a level where they'd pretty much exhausted the original issue of tickets.... Italian audiences are INSANE! I'll never forget being in the front row for S&S, surrounded by Italians who were very loudly singing along to EVERY track, even the HC album tracks ("my sugar is RAW!" comes to mind ). It was brilliant!
Love Spent Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 It seems that there won't be any TUTR video shooting taking place in Rome. At least this is what the Italian press is stating today. Sorry I haven't kept up with the TUTR thread but is it confirmed we are just getting a Miles Away treatment for this video or something more?
cosmic_system Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 The Rome show was NEVER sold out, most of the sections were available since the they went on sale. Milan and Florence are not sold out either but I believe they are very close. The Rome show was a stupid idea in the first place, but what can you do. There are tons of contets in Italy with tickets for that show. Sky Italy is giving away hundred of tickets. Anyway, I'll be in Milan and Florence and I can't fucking wait!!!!
mr_boogiewoogie Posted June 10, 2012 Author Posted June 10, 2012 They have sold about 40,000 tickets for the Rome show. I wouldn't call that stupid. More tickets will surely be sold tomorrow and Tuesday.
mr_boogiewoogie Posted June 10, 2012 Author Posted June 10, 2012 The Italian press has been comparing Madonna to Bruce Springsteen highlighting the fact that Springsteen had sold all of his tickets while Madonna hadn't. What they don't highlight is the fact that Springsteen's ticket are much cheaper.
Nikki Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 The Italian press has been comparing Madonna to Bruce Springsteen highlighting the fact that Springsteen had sold all of his tickets while Madonna hadn't. What they don't highlight is the fact that Springsteen's ticket are much cheaper. and that madonna is playing three different stadiums in the same country and the same week. the press has been doing the same here, comparin gaga with madonna (not keeping in mind that gaga is playing an ARENA.) common sense loses when its about superstars
mr_boogiewoogie Posted June 10, 2012 Author Posted June 10, 2012 Springsteen is playing three stadiums in the same week, too. It's just that his tickets are cheaper and he's playing a hundred songs including ALL the hits.

Source? And capacity for Olimpico is 70.000. I don't think they'll sell 30.000 tickets in 2 days. All the sections but prato A (golden circle) are still available.
mr_boogiewoogie Posted June 10, 2012 Author Posted June 10, 2012 Just because you're not attending the Rome there's no need for you to bitch about it. Not even for Confessions did she sell 70,000 tickets. If she ends up selling 50,000 tickets, it'll be a huge success especially considering that she had alreafy sold 40,000 tkts in Florence and more than 45,000 in Milan. Stop the bitching. Start celebrating. PS ...oh and by the way you can still apply for a management position at Live Nation since you're so good.
