Getting close to Madonna
Fans wanting to get as close as physically possible to Madonna may get their chance this summer. MTV is reporting that Madge is booking small, intimate venues for her summer 2006 tour, with the majority of the set list focusing on tracks from her recent mega-hit, "Confessions on a Dance Floor."

That's cool. I saw Stevie at House of Blues (a very small venue) during the Millenium shows and it was fantastic!

I saw Madonna during her Blonde Ambition tour. She's worth seeing, but $250??

That's a lot, and it IS downright rude as mentioned above.

I bet the tickets will be outrageous to make up for the lack of seats. If she does this, I don't know if I'll go. She's not one I really care to see in an intimate setting.

Oh yeah! I could see $300 or higher.

Me too, yes it was, me too, yes she is, you're right it's too much money, and I don't know if it's rude, but it's an obscene amount of money.

I think that responds to everything!

Yeah, don't care about that either. She's perfect for an arena-sized show.

Now that you bring up the millenium shows, I was at the new years eve one in Vegas, and I have an interesting comparison for you. My ticket cost $175, but for a measly $1,325 more, I couldve seen Barbara Streisand across the street at the MGM. I think I got the better deal there.

and don't you think her show and the songs would work better in an arena? I mean, I get the whole "dancefloor" vibe she's going for but I don't think it's gonna translate. And can you imagine the security issues? eek.

Exactly, not to mention that she lip syncs a lot of her songs so it will be pretty apparent in an intimate setting. I think people expect a big "show" from Madonna and you're right, it won't translate very well.

Edit: Stevie, on the other hand, is perfect for an intimate setting.

I heard that this morning. It's very unusual - that combo. I think this will be her "out of town tryouts".

That really surprises me that shes doing that.

After seeing her Grammy performance it kind of makes sense - she's putting herself alongside the "electronica" bunch!
I don't think it will be a "tryout" as much as a diversion - she'll be reaching a completely different group.

but isn't this festival more for indie music? it doesn't seem like an electronica/dance show from Madonna would really fit in with a crowd that's not interested in necessarily commercial music.

I'm not totally familiar with the festival, so I could be wrong.

I can just see them throwing soggy veggies at her.

Oh I could too.
