Guest Rachelle of London Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I have a feeling m will be on her BEST behaviour for London shows. 9:30 sharp starts. I can't wait for the banter about the o2 arena and the infamous fall at the Brits.
Barney Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I think she will be on time, she must know by now what a twat the tube can be.
Mmmmm Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I have a feeling m will be on her BEST behaviour for London shows. 9:30 sharp starts. I can't wait for the banter about the o2 arena and the infamous fall at the Brits. Can't wait for LFL! The crowd are gonna go wild when she takes off the cape
Apples388 Posted November 29, 2015 Author Posted November 29, 2015 I have a feeling m will be on her BEST behaviour for London shows. 9:30 sharp starts. She certainly was for S&S Oh Nine. And MDNA. In fact it's getting boring the way some people keep going on about the S&S Oh Eight fiasco...
Dr Lecter Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I am gonna lose my shit to Living for Love While I'm on this, are those drum beats live? You see the percussion guy banging his PSB Chris Lowe like system to the beat. Imagine Omar on this tour Poor Monte looks lost half the time as well

Imagine Omar on this tour Poor Monte looks lost half the time as well The emphasis is not so much on the live band this time. Think RIT.
Dr Lecter Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 09 was my first Madonna show! From that I thought she always came onstage on time I was in the bar and someone said It was about to start. I was agog.
Dr Lecter Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 The emphasis is not so much on the live band this time. Think RIT. Well at least from what I've seen its less "sponsored by Casio keyboard demo" sounding than RIT Suede what time will you be at the venue Weds?
Apples388 Posted November 29, 2015 Author Posted November 29, 2015 Well at least from what I've seen its less "sponsored by Casio keyboard demo" sounding than RIT Suede what time will you be at the venue Weds? I should be there around 7:30-8:00, don't think I could get there any earlier!
Guest Rachelle of London Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I've entered that tattoo competition that Guys doing on Thursday.
Dr Lecter Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 Ugh stupid bus replacement on railways on journey back. Good luck Chelle!!
Mmmmm Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I've entered that tattoo competition that Guys doing on Thursday. You have Tattoo?
Confessit Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 Let's face it the LDN shows will restore her status with UK concert goers and for the 2018 tour she'll back to stadiums. TRUST. Madonna wouldn't be able to sell out a stadium here in the UK at the moment.....these UK shows prove that. Whether that changes next album....who knows.
Dr Lecter Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 Well she won't if she starts late but as said I don't think will be that bad and I think these shows will be the sleeper hit Well I hope the crowd are alive . I fucking will be
Confessit Posted November 29, 2015 Posted November 29, 2015 I think there are 2 reasons the UK shows havnt sold very well and why prices are getting slashed everywhere.... The album sank without a trace (very little promo) The prices are ridiculously high coming off the back of no hit single/album. I admire her/her teams tenacity at keeping prices "the Madonna standard" but times have changed.....and this proves it.... I don't think there's ever been a tour where so many tickets have been slashed ahead of a show.....not here in UK anyways.

I don't think there's ever been a tour where so many tickets have been slashed ahead of a show.....not here in UK anyways. Youre kidding. Please dont say things like that. Its one of mine and chelles inside jokes. Take That have been half price the weeks before for YEARS!!!. Please look into it. We laughed that Olly Murrs ended up cheaper than the parking. I enjoy your posts so dont take offence but its been a funny chat thats gone oh here for a year or so, M is doing better than any of them. Its only been Prince & coldplay not even U2. The price drops havent happened to. Its part and parcel now. Look it up. Its old news. Just because you havent heard of it before M. Thats not your fault. Its completely incorrect though babe. Some big acts go on groupon 2 for 1! Gaga was 2 for 1 and was empty then and had to cancel the whole thing. People cant afford to put on 'productions' anymore. Our wages havent risen enough. You REALLY have to want to go, not just think it might be good. Cant afford to. So either keep the standard up and do less dates or tone down fill up the arenas but maybe leave them underwhelmed as it wasnt the same as it used to be. She has tried a hint of that this time. But with the stupid VIP packages which im sure she knew nothing about got so redic in London the promoters are now 'oh lord, that mustve been a bad business meeting'
Mmmmm Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Thank you Barney ^^ Let's stop the negative, show is on tomorrow! Let's get excited please!! Im already having nightmares of arriving late!!!!
Guest Rachelle of London Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Everyone goes on about concerts being the best thing for artists these days but with YouTube and periscope etc I think the touring market is over saturated now especially in Europe. Take That, Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, Usher, Olly Murs all were selling £20 tickets the weeks before their shows after coming off of very successful albums (singles) Madonna isn't doing too bad however I think they cocked up with all those VIP tickets and high pricing for level 4. By reserving so many tickets they made it look like everything was sold out for months when it hadn't so people stopped looking.
Butter9 Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 I can't believe it's London already ! Doesn't time fly ??!!! Am sure it's going to be fantastic and special ! Pics and vdos please ! Have fun everyone !
qans1990 Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Have a great time everyone!! Wonder if Guy R will be there? in keeping with the ghosts of lovers past theme throughout this tour... I don't think he'd take the ex-hubby jokes as well as Sean Penn apparently did...

I just wish her team would bring in line the huge price scales!!! No negativity from me around the show just the logistics of pricing that's frustrating! I have a ticket to Birmingham and can't wait, the clips I've seen are her best get in my opinion.
Guest Rachelle of London Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 The second night still has some great seats available if anyone wants to nab some last minute tickets
Barney Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 OK, just a quickie (it has to be). Ive not looked at train times but been told I can get a good ticket. I could try for the second night unless the trains are redic. Is any body in a hotel close, ill pay for half the room. Illl look up rooms now for on my own but just asking. x Train is doable (if I fiddle the times) £41 first class rtn.
markm Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Looks like a lot of tickets have been sold today. I just had a look and there only a few blocks where you can get 6 seats together. The price reductions have definitely helped
Guest Rachelle of London Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 I've told everyone and their mother about tickets. Even the facilities guy at work is going
Dr Lecter Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Haha me too! Anyone who will listen I'm telling. Again most people are all "she's on tour? I bet she's amazing " Ugh I'm staying tmoro night now just in case
Barney Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 They are selling 'stool seats' in the vip boxes for £80. thats what ive been offered (with connections). own bar and nibbles. Im so tempted but as I was just told the atmosphere might be crap. I dunno? If there are other corporates in it talking I dont want to be shouting 'shut up' for 2 hours.
