Great Girlie Show Shyt! 18 Years Ago Today

Fabulous

Head over to The Beats Within to read Peter's interview with cinematographer Toby Phillips. After that, go over to Jamesy's Madonna-TV.com to see great video reports. Get your fill of one of Madonna's greatest live shows, The Girlie Show!

  4. One of my most 'treasured' memories..opening night 'wembley', remember all the 'shitty' press had been saying her career was over?? yer right!! well that night she couldn't stop smiling. 75,000 fans..it was a fantastic atmosphere. the crowd noise was incredible, at one point she stopped & stood at the end of the runway looking out & said "i just wanna stop & enjoy this for a minute" the crowd went nuts. <3

  5. i love this tour. the band/musicality was brilliant and the sets stunning. and that body. the show was fun but not without depth and sophistication. she seemed really comfortable on stage during the recording and totally charming everytime she spoke. who doesn't love that moment the blind-fold comes off and she smiles and winks at us?

    cue tony bitching about it ;)

  6. Thanks for the L.U.V. Nick! The plot thickens...... check out this article by Rick O'Neil from Turtlerock Mastering, who worked on the Live Down Under edit:

    Then head over to MNation, as Jamesy from Madonna-TV has posted some more interesting info which disputes some of Rick's account - that Vogue was edited in from the "Hong Kong" show.

  7. Sucks I didn't get to go to this brilliant show. Her voice was a bit off at times, but the production, scenery and energy was beyond. Love some GS!

  8. Such a bad tour. Very few highlights for me. Bleck. Still a notch above the DWT, though.
