Default Yowsas, Madge!!!

One hell of a set from Madonna's Confessions Tour Rehearsals from MadonnaTribe.com...La Isla Bonita...Erotica!!!

Ok today the show was rehearsed as a whole. This is what I can tell you.


1-I Feel Love

Images from the W Magazine shoot are shown as a video interlude.
Madonna is not on the stage. There are no vocals in this song just the original bass line is used. It goes right into Future Lovers.

2- Future Lovers

Madonna doesnt appear until Connect to the sky.... part. She comes from the roof on a disco ball that is HUGE and covered with diamonds. The choreography is reminiscent of her 90s dance. This number is the most choreographed number in the set.Kind of like Keep It Together from BAT.

3-Get Together

Madonna is joined by two dancers. Her dancing is freestyle. I mean there are not really moves that are choreographed.Kind of like Music from the Mtv europe music awards.

4- Like a Virgin

This is one of the performances you should get excited for. The remix is very loyal to the original but still adds something extra. The strings are very effectively used and the sound is more rockier than the original with a lot of guitars used. She sings the song on a cockhorse doing some reaaly sexy dance moves. At the end of the song there is an instrumental 1 min part where she dances really provacatively.

5-Jump

Uses an extended version.She is joined by all of her dancers. Again a very energetic version.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

6-Live To Tell

Its a ballad but that doesnt mean shes not gonna dance. She does a very theatrical dance in front of a shiny cross.

7-Isaac

She is joined by Yitzhwak on stage. The 2 of them sing Isaac. Hebrew imagery is used.

8-Forbidden Love

She sings the song as she dances with a male dancer- Mihran- Their moves symbolize a forbidden love between them. Th cross behind them is again lighted and shinnig.

9-Sorry

This is the 2nd best performance on the set. A cage is lifted and she dancers in it. She is alone in it but there are some dancers outside the cage. She gets out of her trousers in the middle and a leotard is revealed.She does krumping in the cage. The way she dances on this number is very sexy.

15-Music- This is probably the best version of the song she has ever done. Its so explosive almost feels like an encore. It lasts about 6 minutes.

16-La isla Bonita- Is very loyal to the original but much faster and a different beat to fit the disco theme. It fits very well after Music.

17-Erotica- Its THE BEST PERFORMANCE. She dances with two male dancers. .There is an instrumental breakdown in the middle when the lights go up and down up and down and the dance there is very sexy.As the lights go up again she sings What are you gonna do. Talk to me tell me your dreams are you scared then she breaks down into Erotic erotic erotic Just close your eyes. The lights go down and the song is over. The versio is faster. The same beat as the album version but edgier I can say. Some parts from You Thrill Me is sung in the middle.



ENCORE< Lucky Star/ Hung Up


Madonna is alone in the stage in Lucky Star like in NKM For RIT. She dances in a mixture of Lucky Star from wtg and nkm from rit. But im just saying that for you to imagine. its not a rehash at all. Then when she sings the chorus for the last time the Hung Up sample starts to build up slowly. All of her dancers appear and a repeat of the MTV performance is done with the classic Hung Up moves but the breakdown in the middle is abou 2-3 minutes and really sexy almost like an orgy. but not as obvious as the one in girlie show. The ending is also longer. And in the end the disco ball at the beginning is lowered from the ceiling and she sits on it and the ball again goes up to the roof with madonna on it and thats how she leaves the stage.


As a result I can tell you Future Lovers. Like a Virgin. The entire 2nd and the last section is spectacular and M at her best. nothing less than Blond ambition really. The only performances that repeat the acoustic- rock feeling in rit and dwt are like it or not and the 3rd section but that doesnt mean they are bad. its just nothing different and something you havent seen.

Thanks for the detailed info and commentary! I think the setlist sounds great. Love the disco ball, too.
