Just got back from Opening Night… Wow! What a show!!!

I never thought she could top ReInvention, but she has…

Future Lovers was an amazing opening… on par with the Beast Within/Vogue number from RIT.

I was in tears during the “confessions” interlude before Live to Tell…

And, about Live to Tell… I’m not Christian, and I’m not particularly offended by her on the cross, but I didn’t understand it at all… it was just a weird element that took away from my enjoying Live to Tell…

Forbidden Love was beautiful, with the male dancers interlocking hands and Madonna eventually joining them.

During Let It Will Be, she was at the end of the catwalk… she slammed down the microphone after singing “Just watch me burn!!!” and then she started flailing around on the stage… she accidentally kicked the microphone off the stage!!!

She went to reach it to sing the next line, she couldn’t find it, and she had this look of “oh fuck, what do I do now?” on her face… finally, someone (either a fan or a cameraman) in front of the catwalk handed it to her, as it had flown into the seats in front of the catwalk… she just picked up where she left off in the song… it was actually quite funny… she’s missing lines cause she doesn’t have a microphone!!!! (You better believe there will be a stage hand there from now on with a backup microphone.)

Paradise (Not for Me) went beyond my expectations… this was my favorite Madonna song for several years, so to hear it live, with the beautiful video backdrop of falling petals… I was mesmerized and in tears…

Erotica was very fun… loved the use of the You Thrill Me lyrics…

Music Inferno was also fun… she looked like she was really enjoying herself.

Ray of Light was just like Coachella, except the dancers are in black outfits with white ties… very cool…

Oh… and elements of Everybody were mixed into the interlude leading up to Music Inferno… so obviously, they found a way to include the lyrics from the song that was scrapped…

That’s all for now…”
