Madonna Rare "On The Road" Virgin Tour Pics

Madonna - the Virgin Tour Live

Madonna with dancers and band on the Virgin Tour.

With back up dancer Lyndon B. Johnson.

Before I even read the type, I KNEW this was from TIME Magazine talking to Madonna because in the first paragraph the reporter described Madonna with a kelly green skirt, paisley shirt tied around her midriff and hair piled on top of her head with glasses - an image I never forgot.

Rehearsing with guitarist Paul Pesco.

With Pat Leonard and choreographer Vince Patterson in San Diego.

With Pat and Vince.

With keyboardist Billy Meyers.

Riding horses with Virgin Tour crew.

Beastie Boys - chosen by Madonna as opening band for The Virgin Tour

Madonna money, Live Aid pass, Los Angeles Universal Amphitheater

A huge thank you to my friend Scrapple who is a true asset to the Madonna community. He always uncovers great unseen photos of Madonna. To view these larger - head over to MadonnaScrapbook Tumblr page.
