I heard a bit of it when I phoned my friend, who was at the concert, and she was singing Papa Don't Preach.

RIGHT

The whole visual elements were STUNNING. Looking back this is quite surprising because this tour certainly wasn't about the Theatrics (like the last one). It was about the songs and a celebration of her career. But the backdrop screens had some great sequences, at times better than the original videos!! :o

Her image in the Bedtime Stores visual was BREATHTAKING. I've rarely seen her look so beautiful and she looked barely 30. The opening sequence was beautifully crafted and really built the atmosphere.

There was a lot of expressing views going on (the war, religion etc) which the cynical amongst us would probably take issue with but I just think - who gives a shit? She's an artist, and is expressing, as she puts it, "her extreme point of view". She's entitled to her opinion and I don't think she's out there to try and convert the world into Kabbalism, just to be who you are and respect what others are etc.

Her voice is better than I've ever heard, particularly during Frozen.

Only glaring omissions from the set were Ray Of Light, Erotica, Like A Virgin, Love Profusion, Beautiful Stranger, Borderline :evil: , Lucky Star and La Isla Bonita.

Still no sign of my 4 faves Take A Bow, I Want You, Rain or Power Of Goodbye :(

But she can't exactly sing EVERYTHING and she did sing practically everything else

Was surprised to hear Papa Don't Preach, Burning Up, Material Girl and Crazy For You!

Biggest reaction was for Like A Prayer

Nothing Fails sounds incredible live

She performed at least one song from every studio album

I loved the yoga/Vogue connection

I actually quite liked her version of Imagine. John Lennon on the screen got a big cheer

The final set with the Scottish pipes and drummers leading into the final medley was inspired and the highland dancing sequences were fantastic. Can't wait to see them close up on the DVD.

That's it!

Oh and there was a huge furore going on just before the start, obviously celebrities making their way in...

...found out later it was Kylie Minogue, Dannii, Stella McCartney, Donatella Versace and David Bowie!! :o

Oh I know but her voice has improved since then

I want to hear her make amends. It's her best ever song! :(

Where did you get that from?

I liked the way she had fans in the stage, a la MTV Awards. Looked great.

I was casual, I went straight from work. Jeans and long sleeved tee

There weren't many people dressed up and it was a much older crowd than I expected.

But the prices were astranomical

My cousin said most 16 year olds think of Madonna as some old woman from the 80s

I said correct but keep your voice down or we'll get lynched
