Indeed. If this were 1986, this story would be news.

Glad you two won't get in my way of getting tickets. Madonna's amazing. She constantly reinvents herself and continues to blow up the charts. I've seen her tours on HBO shows, and I know this will be an incredible performance. I can't wait.

Don't be too kind, I think she's turning 50 this year. And she is built like a horse!!

Yeah, no problem Jennie--get those tix! And smith, good point. Maybe Madonna and Sarah Jessica Parker could team up and go on tour together. They could call it the Girls Who Look Like A Foot Tour - 2008.

Wow, two for the price of one here: ageism AND sexism!

I thought she was boycotting our state since the early 1990's.
What happened?

Well, hello NCB. Did you get my response to you on a thread from yesterday? I didn't see a response. It's good to see you're still around, and still your usual self.
You know, for someone who's tremendously homophobic, you sure are showing me a lot of attention. I hate to break this to you, but I'm not into guys. I'm straight, but not narrow. You should have been able to figure that out by my shunning of Madonna's latest round of concerts. But if you ask real nice, I bet Jennie would let you go with her.
Keep smiling. It makes you look fabulous!

The reason this is entertainment news (like this even needs to be explained) is because she's never played here before, is still huge in the music scene, and puts on a great show.
Say all the mean, rude, unnecessary comments you want to, I personally am looking forward to seeing someone whose music was a huge part of my twenties, thirties, and now forties.
And the beauty of the world we live in is if you don't enjoy her music, guess what? YOU don't have to go! Isn't that great!

I didn't know she was still performing. I thought she was just adopting other people's kids.

Tickets are scheduled to go on sale May 31, with prices ranging from $55 to $350.
Might be time for me to sell that Penthouse I have with her in it. You may be my lucky star...

Hey, if you guys want to spend $300 to watch a 50 year old sing "Like A Virgin," knock yourselves out.

Another political refuge from the U.S. She sure likes our money though. Her and Johnny Depp can stay in France with the rest of the Frogs. Oh, and take Barbara Streistand, and Angelina with you...(Bunch of ungrateful A-HOE's.)

I see you had a chance to read my first post before you or some other thin skinned person who hates the truth had it removed.
If you aren't one you that'll be a real surprise. Your so Finicky, Persnickety and those hissy fits of yours. I'd bet you would be also good at arranging flowers and have an eye for antiques. Again you could just be your run of the mill pantywaist.
Don't flatter yourself, the attention you are getting is to set you on the "straight" and "narrow" and have fun doing it. People with open mind like yours usually have their brains dripping out of their ears and all over the place. Such a waste of your education to be without any common sense. You obviously don't have any shame either supporting the vile things that you do.
I'd figure Madonna who is one of the queens of immorality would be a must see for a perv. mistfit like you. What's the matter isn't she immoral and twisted enough for you? No you're being a hypocrite and intolerant.
Now show me how you pretend the truth doesn't bother you.
It's a sad thing to see but amusing at the same time.

Pardon my type-o's MajorOriffice you little English Major also.
I forgot to mention your fruit like pettiness for the trivial things.

Well? What have you got to say for yourself? Maybe you can think up something other than criticizing my grammar and spelling(The petty stuff)in the future.
Can't wait on that warped mind of yours to kick in all afternoon.
Smell Ya Later!

Aw, did you get censored NCB? Rest assured I would never flag you. I think your entries need to stick around in these blogs, if for nothing else for my sole entertainment. And I'm sure a lot of other people get a chuckle from reading your sophmoric, vulgar posts. Even if I were to disagree with all of my being (and I usually do) I wouldn't ask for them to be gone. That's not how I operate. I will commend you for your efforts to finally learn the English language. I think it will help you communicate better on these blogs and in real life! Good for you.
As far as Madonna, I listened to her in the 80s because my girlfriends listened to her in the 80s. I tolerated her then. I choose not to now. Mind you, this is just a personal opinion. But I do get a kickout of seeing 80s bands come around again--it's a riot to see bands like Def Leppard and Duran Duran back out on the road. I did see Jane's Addiction a few years back at DU, and they were pretty darned good--still. What about you, NCB, what are your tastes in music?

And NCB, check me if I'm wrong--and I'm sure you will regardless--but I don't take too many shots at your bad grammar. I'm too busy responding to your outrageous thoughts in general to take notice of grammar issues. But make no mistake, it's good to see you around!

I heard on the radio last night that tickets are $200-$400 after fees for this show?! That just crazy! I grew up in the 80's listening to her but is she really that popular still to charge that kind of money for tickets in a venue where the cheap seats at $200 will get you an echo while staring at dancing dots?!

NCB, did you forget your pill this AM?

this thread is sad.
the woman, like it or not, is a music legend who has NEVER PERFORMED in denver.
over the length of her expansive career, this is the FIRST time she is here. that is good entertainment news.
i, for one, am looking forward to getting a chance to see an icon like this live on stage -- even if it isn't my cup-o-tea musically.
this and stevie wonder are two shows i'm really looking forward to seeing. we don't get big shows like this much anymore, and it sure beats the run-of-the-mill red rocks bands we see year after year after year.
