Guest Moskovit Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Yeh, Vodka, Thank god, Suedehead, you didn't say "Na zdarovye" Because no one in Russia (except foreigners) use this phrase, when they drink vodka. "Na zdorovye" is used in Russian as "Not at all". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kangarooz Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Russian Orthodox Church calls for boycott of Madonna concert (Friday August 04, 2006 05:45 PM) MOSCOW (AFP) - Russia's Orthodox Church accused US superstar Madonna of exploiting Christian symbols for her own ends and called for a boycott of her first-ever concert in Moscow. "The US singer Madonna exploits Christian symbols -- the cross, rosary beads and the crucifix -- and tries to equate human passions, including her own personal passions, with something sacred," the spokesman for the patriarch of Moscow said. "I don't think that Orthodox believers should support this lady by going to her concert," father Vsevolod Chaplin said on Echo of Moscow radio station. She "needs spiritual help because she swings between Christianity and Kabbalah," he said, referring to a branch of Jewish mysticism that the singer follows. Madonna will perform in Russia for the first time on September 11 as part of her "Confessions" world tour. The concert will take place on a specially constructed stage on Sparrow Hills overlooking the city centre, close to Moscow State University. The pop diva will arrive in the Russian capital with 57 trucks and 200 tonnes of equipment in tow, the organisers said. Tickets cost between 1,500 rubles (55 dollars, 45 euros) and a hefty 25,000 rubles (930 dollars, 730 euros). Madonna kicked off the European leg of her world tour in the Welsh city of Cardiff on July 30 where she gyrated on a saddle floating above the stage and sang from a crucifix in a performance involving provocative dance routines. She has often sparked outrage among religious leaders with raunchy video clips, notably when she kissed a black Christ in front of a burning cross in her 1989 hit "Like a Prayer".

Camacho Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 http://en.rian.ru/russia/20060808/52376364.html Madonna fans line up all night for Moscow concert tickets 11:34 | 08/ 08/ 2006 MOSCOW, August 8 (RIA Novosti) - About 300 Madonna fans gathered in central Moscow in the small hours of Tuesday to buy tickets for the pop diva's concert on September 11. The first fan appeared on Monday afternoon and by 7 p.m. (3p.m. GMT) people had started signing up to a long list for their chance to make it to the ticket office. About 2,000 cheapest tickets will be sold for the dance floor Tuesday for 1,500 rubles ($56), well under the European-low of $90, said Mikhail Shurygin, president of St. Petersburg's concert agency NCA organizing the concert. The other 40,000 tickets for the show, part of the controversial Confessions tour, fall into six price categories, from 3,000 rubles ($110) to 25,000 rubles ($935). Organizers of Madonna's tour in Prague, where the pop icon will perform on September 6, said the 36,000 tickets sold out in nine minutes. Shurygin said that free tickets would be provided for disabled people, but the singer's management would set the number available. A total of 200 metric tons of Madonna's stage equipment will arrive in Moscow in 57 trucks. The singer will be accompanied by a staff of 200 and will perform onstage with a team of 27 people. Shurygin said, "The newest security equipment from Europe will be used during Madonna's show in Moscow." He added that the stage, which will be set up in front of the huge Moscow University building on a hill overlooking the capital, would be protected with police cordon and a fence.

Camacho Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Moscow queue panorama. Here's a panoramic photo of the queue to the ticket office. http://www.drownedmadonna.com/images/2006/...ue-panorama.jpg Tickets went on sale yesterday at 10am local time. There are 30,000 general admission tickets + 10,000 seated tickets. There were two goofs, however. Despite the information that general admition tickets can be purchased online, via the phone and in 2 tickets offices, it's not true! The only way is through the single ticket office that is opened 10am-9pm. Fans started to queue at 6pm the previous day - 16 hours before the actual sale begun! Another goof is the price of approx. 44 Euro per ticket - both 27,000 general admission and 3,000 front-stage ones. It's clear that there are so many fans willing to be closer to the stage and therefore to pay more then 44 Euro. Needless to say all those front-stage tickets were sold within minutes. Anyway, fans are cheering and happy. Media reports are very positive and in a big time sensuality. Special thanks to our correspondent Mosdog from Moscow.

Guest northernlad Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 So I'm guessing the stage will be very high at these gigs.. 'cause they'd never give that good a deal to people in the front otherwise.. anyway, if demand holds I wonder if they might not put a limit on ga tix sold? it'd be very surprising to see moscow outdo ny for most attended city on the tour I wish I was going.. I'll be settling into my first exams at that time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
