IslandBreeze Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 So, I liked her songs but never paid much attention to her until a live broadcast of BAT. With MDNA premiering soon I suspect new fans will convert. Were any of you converted after a tour broadcast or live show? If so, please reminisce.

Kurt420 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I wouldn't say a tour turned me into a loon, but I will say that during each tour my loondom goes through the roof!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apples388 Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 WHO'S THAT GIRL TOUR of course! I was already a fan and my sister was an early Madonna wannabe and we used to watch The Virgin Tour home video and she'd be in her rubber bracelets and everything ( ) but it was Who's That Girl World Tour 1987 that turned me into a proper loon!

Nonoka Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I became a fan midway through the Confessions era, shortly before the tour started. However, I spent my time starting to collect her CDs and going through her catalogue rather than actively following the tour. It wasn't til the DVD release I realized how amazing the tour really was and how much I missed. After that I started collecting her other tour DVDs as well. It is a bit stupid that I got a M fan while a new, glorious era and tour was going on right at that time, but didn't actually focus on it. But well, in the end it doesn't matter, at least I got a fan in the first place! By the way, my 1000th post woohoo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IsaacHarris Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Drowned World on HBO peaked my interest. Confessions Tour on BravoTV made me a fan. November 24th 2008 Sticky & Sweet Tour Live @ the Phillips Arena in ATL Georgia made me a full blown loon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I thought I was a loon, but MDNA made me loonier For me it was watching BA on TV...as a young catholic girl I was offended...then realised I wasn't offended but fucking loved everything about it...then I was hers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I actually watched the S&S tour broadcast a few years after its original release and since then I've pretty much been a loon. I looked into her music after I heard Miles Away (I know, oh dear) and I loved it. I actually don't think it deserves some of the hate it gets, one of the best on Hard Candy. Fortunately, I discovered more of her "better" music. I went to MDNA in Hyde Park and it was amazing! Actually looking and thinking "that's Madonna" is so weird, still even now.

IslandBreeze Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 It seems to me that so far, RIT and GS did not convert many fans on Madonnanation. I remember watching the VHS recording of the BAT show in Barcelona over and over and over and over. Then after that I recorded her Oscar performance of Sooner of Later.... then a friend of mine got a pirated version of Truth or Dare. That was the most exciting time to be her fan, definitely it was her peak (though she's had other lesser peaks since then). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijah Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 I loved her dearly since True Blue (my first memory is watching Like A Virgin video on a video when I was like 5 and thinking she is the most beautiful woman on earth) but it wasnt before BAT when I was convinced she was a god. It made me love her more and acknowledge that she does the greatest show on earth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashtangi74 Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 i knew who she was (off course) and liked her music, but when i saw the wtg tour shown live from italy on my television i was sold. what a show, what an energy, what an attitude, what a dancer, performer.....i loved her!

ULIZOS Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 I've fell in love with the Queen when I was like 5 back during the LAP days, and Bedtime Stories, ROL and Music were MY FUCKING ALBUMS but I didn't actually become the loon I am today until I saw the DWT on HBO. I've been hooked ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikki Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 RIT cuz I saw her for the first time live.. but from seeing it on MTV weekends.. i'd say BAT. with her it's like watching a popstar with the personality of a rockstar but at the same time she's also classic hollywood and diva like. I can't really "place" her. I love the contradictions about this woman! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the most exciting time to be her fan, definitely it was her peak (though she's had other lesser peaks since then). Nope, not quite. The Girlie Show did it for me. Blond Ambition was amazing, and who at the time could ignore it. She was everywhere...and everything. But TGS did it for me. I was in awe. At first, I couldn't even quite understand what I liked, or what was even going on (I was so young), but I just couldn't turn away. It was like watching porn...something a good Catholic/Christian boy was certainly not supposed to do, but of course, you just couldn't help yourself (and it was the Erotica era. LOL)!!! Madonna was very much the same way. Loved the singles during BS era. For me, it's been a gradual thing that has grown since then...paying attention to some things at certain times more than others. The AL era totally solidified it for me. That's when I started to really go back and study her work, interviews, everything...and I'm still always learning new things...

pasqual Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Tours are Ms biggest thing I was obsessed with DWT, so all my friends who visited me must watch it so i could show them how great this woman is. Even some of them hate her songs they agreed she is cool so it was enough for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gemini1313 Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 my neightbour was a DJ back in the day. I was like 12 or 13,,,,and he just returned from NYC with a 12 inch vinyl or everybody. he told me " this Italian gina girl can sing like a black girl.." he played the funky track and my ears fell in love. been a fan ever since. as soon as the MADONNA MADONNA album came out I bought it right away and played it non stop. I still remember that time when no one had even heard of her. can u imagine? " huh ? Madonna who ? " Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
