14 Years later and Wow
Rsd26 here and I have to say Wow!
First time I saw Madonna live was back on Sunday May 27 1990, I had a chance to buy a ticket even borrowed $50 from my mother back then, I had a nosebleed seat at the Skydome (sec 230 LVL 7 Seat 103) and went alone to the show with not even a dime in my pocket.
But it was one of the most rememberable nights of my life.since I was a instant fan when I first heard her music with yet no face to place with it.
Here it is 14 years later and Wow. Keeping up to date with madonna the tour was announced the wonderful man I’m dating announces he’d like to get me tickets for the show as a early birthday gift.
March 27 2004 with cash in hand and my mother and my 9 year old son at my side get in the car and head to the nearest ticketmaster.
The morning was cold but as we stood there I take a moment and think wow my mother (who would yell at me turn off my music (Madonna) while I was living at home is now willing to get me a number for that chance of getting that ticket. And my baby my son who knows the words to most of Madonna’s music is at my side (telling people in line) My mom really wants tickets can anyone help.
LOL we in line laugh at his attempt to help his mom.
Well after the long wait I get the number 14 my mother got 43 my son got 9. the number called was 20. so we had a wait but a chance.
My mother and son went to stay warm in the car.
Three people away and the voice heard (Show sold out) I was in shock so I stood there not moving thinking no way. So I stayed there saying she won’t let us down she will set a new date.
And 10 minutes go by and she does I get 2 tickets for July 19 sec 104 row 32 seats 3 and 4.
I took my baby sister who’s now 20 with me (bf didn’t want to go) my sister who became a fan while I was singing in my room when she was a baby lol.
We get to the show my god can this be true our seats are great sure not ground or pit but we see all.
As I watch the show I think wow 14 years since last time and I am in heaven she was amazing.
The hole night I was taken back and forth between songs and the times in my life , remembering things when a song came on and knowing here it all came around again to seeing her live.
No matter what life has tossed my way here I was with the one true person I have depend on for so long, Madonna‘s music has been with me through the good and very bad times and here for one night once again I see the magic she gives to her fans.
I will never forget last night it was more than I could have asked for. And for this show I had money this time and came home with a bag of things. Mug, 3 t-shirts, boytoy necklace. And thanks to all the people who help me get there they made my dream come true.
It was a night to forget the troubles and just live in the moment and remember the times what and where we were when the songs first came out.
I for one will always remember the magic of Madonna on that stage and Thank her for making it here to Canada.
This was a story I had to share.
Thanks for letting me share this.
