A largely positive review from Pitchfork

I managed to get very last-minute tickets for last night, and I’m so very glad I did. I just got very lucky with our seats. She came on late but played full set until 11.25pm and so I’m not complaining.

The performance was epic! Strangely intimate, very moving and so much fun. Easily the best tour for me since confessions. I bloody loved it, and was moved to tears at least 3 times. That’s a sign of a great show right?

The clips I’ve seen on YouTube/socials just didn’t do it justice. I’m so so glad I got to see it and her, she was on great form and had a lot of energy last night. Musically, she was on fire, and the highlights for me, were the unexpected ones. Burning Up, Erotica and Bad Girl to name but a few.

Tired, but a very happy fan this morning x

What a great post/review! Really happy for you <3

Reports coming in that Madonna is in talks to headline Glastonbury next year due to the success of this tour! :o

What an amazing headliner she’d be!

 

Does feel very soon for the rumours (when are names usually announced for it?) but I do remember seeing that next year will have two female headliners and she’s pretty much THE ultimate female so what a time to do it and what a show she’d do as well.

 

I’d be so half tempted to try and go if she actually did Glastonbury.

 

On another note lateness aside I am so happy to see some positivity re Madonna in the press and across socials lately. Even non fans are saying that the tour looks great and are being complimentary towards her voice and the performances what are going viral.

 

I hope this translates to when we get another album. Its a pity that the Finally Another Love album didn’t drop as a new release this week as it may have added to her UK #1 tally.

I’m really really hoping the rumours of a stadium tour to coincide with Glastonbury are true! I was at the opening night and need to see it again :cry:

I wonder if this tour will travel into Asia / Australia as well at some point next year as well.

 

I’m not too sure on the Stadium rumours. I think the show could’ve easily sold as a stadium tour and she’d have been able to do fewer shows too but it definitely looks better in a darker setting like an arena.

Omg she has to headline Glastonbury, PLEASE!

This is heart-breaking :cry:

Apparently Causing A Commotion was performed briefly tonight! An acoustic acapella rendition *.*

I went to the first Belgian gig , it was so much better than London!!

 

9/10 !!

Why was it better? Just less issues?

Just the hook sung during a speech by the looks of it. An underrated anthem!

Madonna paid tribute to her brother, Anthony, who died in February this year:

The smiles! :heart: :heart:

So i have seen the show twice now and i have watched an amazing edit on YouTube!

 

The show is really a show! I learn more each time i watch it and i still have two more

shows to see!!!

 

This show is not a party , it is not a greatest hits set, and i do believe you need to see it more than once to really appreciate / understand the concepts!

 

The crowd are not that loud , not dancing much, this is because it is story telling! The setlist and people on phones dont help! The staging means Madonna is not always near you so when she is people take out their phone instead of being in the moment!

 

I am growing to love this show i do however feel it needed a couple more huge hits included to make the crowd liven up!

 

Spoiler Below

 

The flattest moment is Mother and Father , it totally makes sense and i enjoyed it but this really did not go down well when 80% or more of audience didn't know it!
