Me neither, it defo won't be GMAYL.

I think GGW could be an awesome closer.

I think ggw or I'm addicted may open the show, celebration to close it!
I'm Addicted needs to either open of close it (or at the very least open of close a section) it just CRIES OUT for an extended MDNA intro/outro *.*

I would love Gang Bang to open the show and maybe Celebration or Holiday to end it.
Can't think of what i would call the pit , will want to enter the icon competition

Madonna would love to Play Iran and Syria, says Oseary

 

With her “MDNA” tour set to kick off in Tel Aviv on May 29, manager Guy Oseary tells THR that neither threat of military action nor abhorrent local laws, like St. Petersburg’s anti-gay legislation, would stop the pop star from performing.

Call it unflinching fearlessness or a solo mission of shuttle diplomacy, but when it comes to the Middle East, Madonna knows no borderlines. In fact, she’s willing to entertain all sides during her MDNA tour, which kicks off May 29 in Israel. “We would love to go play Iran,” Madonna’s longtime manager Guy Oseary tells The Hollywood Reporter. “We would love to play Lebanon, Egypt and Syria at some point. … Obviously, it’s just not possible.”

Indeed, Syria is on the brink of civil war, while Iran continues a tense standoff with the U.S. and Israel over its nuclear program. In fact, the looming threat of pre-emptive action was so grim that it prompted some 1,000 Israeli Madonna fans to form a Facebook page whose sole purpose is to plead with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to delay any engagement until after her Tel Aviv dates (she later added a second show, aptly titled the “Concert for Peace”).

But Oseary says it would take something more concrete than the mere threat of imminent war to deter his client of 22 years. “It would have to be really serious, where the lives of people working with us are in danger,” he says. “If we got a letter from the government saying it’s a bad time to go, we would still go. This woman doesn’t cancel anything, she just goes.”

That runs contrary to many foreign acts who call off dates in Israel not only because of potential violence, but as a result of political criticism from their fans (Elvis Costello and Santana, among them — more recently, indie rock darlings Cat Power and Tuneyards canceled shows in Tel Aviv as did Grammy-winning jazz singer Cassandra Wilson, who bowed out of her Holy Land concert two days before the curtain was scheduled to rise).

Madonna applied the same logic to uproar over recently enacted anti-gay legislation in St. Petersburg, Russia, where she’s scheduled to play in August. Says Oseary: “With St. Petersburg, she was, like, ‘Why would I ever give up my podium to stand up for someone?’” (Madonna declared on Facebook that she would “come to St. Petersburg and speak up for the gay community and … give strength and inspiration to anyone who is or feels oppressed,” an action that could get her charged under the new law that prohibits “the propaganda of homosexuality and pedophilia among minors.”)

In the meantime, Madonna will simply have to relish in her latest accomplishment: her eighth No. 1 album, MDNA (and first for Interscope after 30 years at Warner Bros.), which is set to sell more 359,000 copies its first week, according to Nielsen SoundScan, and debut atop the Billboard 200. She’s still one No. 1 shy of Barbra Streisand for the most chart-topping albums by a female artist, but you really can’t compare. After all, Babs not only has 20 more years in the game, she rarely ventured beyond continental Europe.

Possible Spoilers about the show.....

The MDNA Tour opens up with religious chants that lead into Girl Gone Wild. Just like the album version it includes the Act of Contrition intro and also has a new instrumental part featuring whip-sounds and even some Material Girl lyrics. Then comes Revolver featuring Lil Wayne, who will appear in the backdrop video, followed by Gang Bang. The fourth title on the setlist is the first real surprise: an edited version of Papa Don’t Preach!

 

Hung up has completely been reworked to fit the theme of the MDNA tour and next up is guitar-heavy I Don’t Give A featuring Nicki Minaj.

Some of you might have noticed similarities between Best Friend and Heartbeat from the Hard Candy album. You’re not the only ones, because the tour version now includes more Heartbeat references and even some lyrics.

 

Express Yourself has some HUGE surprises that will have everyone talking, but we won’t spoil these for the moment.

After this we go into the Just Blaze remix of Give me all your Luvin’, followed by Turn up the Radio.

 

Another surprise on the setlist is a completely reinvented version of Open Your Heart, which is followed by a track from the MDNA album, Falling Free. The tour version is very similar to the album version, but has a more prominent violin sound.

 

The second part of the show also includes a totally reinvented version of the William Orbit remix of Justify my Love, including new lyrics, and a Nobody Knows Me video.

I'm so excited IF Papa Don't Preach and Justify My Love get used on the tour. I hope she doesn't tone JML down like she did with Erotica on the Confessions Tour.

 

I'm also excited for the MDNA songs: Gang Bang (by far), I Don't Give A and GMAYL (yes I so wanna see that). I hope she does Some Girls.

where did u get this info sweet candy?

 

really suprised with the inclusion of 'I Dont Give A' i thought it would be given the 'Dance Tonight' treatment and would be left off the tour!

this is the link to GMAYL just blaze mix, surely she cant use this version on the tour? (Although this is just a dub, so maybe just blaze have another remix?)

  • Author

Surely not, but she can change the mix to how she wants to perform the song.

So it may not all be bad (I hope).
