VERY DISAPPOINTED, A VIDEO WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER!

Ok, here goes... terrible DJ playing the same song FOR TWO HOURS. She finally started two hours late and didn't even sing (lipped synched) her full songs, just little pieces of her hits. She played most of new stuff but that's not what i wanted to see or hear. She's my age 65 so I can understand why she doesn't dance as much, but I would have like it if she just sat in a chair and sang her biggest hits with dancers all around. That would have been much better then the performance art boring show I saw. I kept waiting for it to get better but NOPE! No one even cared when it ended, no encore needed or wanted. What a complete disappointment!

DISRESPECTFUL BRAT

It was bad enough that it was 80 degrees inside the venue, worse that she was 2 hours late, just because. On top of that, the Moddy Center won't let you go outside so instead you have to sweat and spend $20 on a drink. It was a very odd show that tried to be one part career retrospective and one part edgy and controversial. The sound was off several times, It if weren't for her catalog of hits, this would have been one huge dumpster fire.

SWEAT AND LOW ENERGY

The DJ warmup act started at 8:30 pm and ended at 9:30. Madonna didn't come out until after 10:30. The arena was miserably hot, everyone sweating and complaining - great way to start a show. Madonna simply didn't bring it... she just "phoned it in." She had low energy and didn't appear to be excited or enthused about the show. It felt like she was just going through the motions thinking her legacy would be enough to get her through the show. No band, just a sound track including vocals. She did sing and sounded pretty good at times. But the bass was cranked and distorted and overpowered any vocals. She talked too much, explained her show in too much detail with lots of repetition. Theatrical transitions took way too long breaking the flow of the show. Many of her songs were truncated. Lighting, projections, dancers, etc were great but seemingly wasted on a lackluster musical performance.
