MADONNA REWATCH PARTY #1: Blond Ambition Tour & Truth or Dare - 10th April (19:00 BST)

[Sheena]

Y'know, this is something the Moopy Twitter should have SAID about. A few RETWEETS and a MARGE HASHTAG would have brought'em in.

Then again, did we WANT Madonna loons?

 

[Sheena]

Someone needs to tell @straightorbroken that he HASN'T HEARD THE RECALL GUN

 

[Lucille]

We're having a period to reflect, because there wasn't enough time in that ENTHRALLING interlude.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

WE ARE STARTING AGAIN AT 20:15

ABSOLUTELY NOT.

 

[Sheena]

I don't understand why she massacred MATERIAL girl

Cause she hated it. She said at the time (and after) she had to reimagine songs like Like A Virgin as she knew people wanted to hear them but she couldn't do them without cringing. Material Girl was worse as it truly was the albatross around her neck- she still gets called it now!

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh no, I thought we were doing poos after the whole show before the docu.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Oh no, I thought we were doing poos after the whole show before the docu.

I think most aren't staying for Truth or Dare but if it's an ABSOLUTE MUST if you ask me..

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Living in a material world

.. and we're back!

 

[Sheena]

And we're OFF

 

[lolly]

I'm off

 

[Sheena]

One thing I don't think I EVER realised was that it was an arena show in the US- this is in an under 20k capacity venue.

 

[Christian]

I'm IN

Time for more BAFFLING comedy

Jewish Jersey housewives were not a reference point for me so I had NO CLUE about this

 

[Cerro de Casa]

What's going on with the camera here?

 

[Sheena]

I always DID hate this performance. It's TERRIBLE.

 

[Penelope]

at this REINTERPRETATION

 

[Penelope]

THIS! IS! DRAG!!!

DAAAAAD it's not like I'm just playing stadiums... it's like arenas and I'm playing back to back shows and it's a really gruelling show and... y'know..

 

[Christian]

She's never bettered the Virgin Live tour version of Material Girl

I don't want MONEY, I want LOVE

 

[straightorbroken]

This is the MAIN EVENT and no they are not ready!

 

[Cerro de Casa]

THIS! IS! DRAG!!!

MADONNA DID EVERYTHING FIRST

 

[Sheena]

I think it's the only point that the "concert as theatre" concept REALLY doesn't work.

 

[Cerro de Casa]

She's never bettered the Virgin Live tour version of Material Girl

I don't want MONEY, I want LOVE

Agreed. The original & the DEFINITIVE.

 

[GNL]

I get the Catholic bits but haven't the Jews been through enough?

 

[Lucille]

She sounds like one of the rugrats.

 

[Penelope]

I don't think I ever computed that. It seems ridiculous this is somewhere smaller than Wembley Arena!

 

[Christian]

FUCKING with the FANZ since TIME IMMEMORIAL

"You like Material Girl? Well FUCK YOU"

 

[Cerro de Casa]

The MG/ITG outfit is not as 'iconic' as the others from this tour but I absolutely ADORE these as well.. the '$$$'s are a lovely touch.

 

[straightorbroken]

Okay, so I got 9 minutes into part 2. I'll resume at 20:24. I put on some MX clips.

 

[Christian]

Japan was stadiums too, hence the MONSOON fucking it all up

 

[Alla]

The camera work is terrible most of the time.

 

[Penelope]

I really wish Gaga would do this sort of thing with her old stuff that she's too embarrassed to even contemplate anymore.

 

[Sheena]

Donna's HAIR is SHIT in this recording too

 

[Cerro de Casa]

Fun fact time: the original 'costume fittings' were done when she still had dark hair. There's pictures of her in the Cherish outfit with short TIC booklet hair and it looks WEIRD...

 

[Sheena]

Was it the Classic Pop retrospective recently that talked about how Cherish gave Madonna the chance to "show off her new found harp playing skills"

TIC booklet hair was a WIG though

 

[Lucille]

Oooooh just what we all wanted, FAGGY MERMAIDS.

 

[Penelope]

Good LORD this is GAYER THAN METH

LOL!
