Madonna swept her fans off their feet at Jean-Paul Bustier Arena May 18. The concert tickets were sold out. As soon as Madonna emerged onto the stage underneath purple lightning, the hugely enthusiastic crowd began to holler her name. Pandemonium ensued. A real bonanza was in store.
Madonna stepped out into the heat of the lighting, into full view of her fans. The music came on and the crowd swayed side to side to the rhythm of the song “Dress You Up.” Madonna shimmered in a green sweater paired with purple leggings and a skirt. She walked towards the microphone and wrapped her hands over it. She hit the first note. The crowd went wild.
Madonna’s back up dancers were so sharp on every move, never missing a beat. Madonna kept the crowd rumbling throughout her concert. She left no doubt as to why she has been ranked to be the best female artist in the 20th century.
Throughout the concert Madonna constantly reinvented herself by changing her appearance and outfit. Not only was her appearance a constant chameleon show, but the audience also never knew where she’d be coming out on stage next. Sometimes she came from the side. Then from below. You had to wonder if she’d drop down from a wire next time. The scene-stealer, though, was when she sang “Vogue, ” wearing sparkling and shimmering blue dress. Her hair was blonde it was clipped together with two curls hanging in the front of her face. Madonna bent down to do her moves so when she got up she stared into the distance above the audience heads. The performance was mesmerizing.
Leaving aside Vogue, overall the music that Madonna presented seemed all the same and it did not bring any excitement. Her music was too mellow even when she hit the high pitch notes. Her energy almost seemed low. Madonna seemed to be a bit to comfortable when presenting her sexual content.
