Here’s another re-Invention review by Martin.

“Hey Madonnatribe!
Madonna rocked my world three ways from Sunday last night. It was my first ever Madge concert and it was everything I could have ever hoped it to be and more! She looked stunning and sounded beyond amazing. I had floor seats, section 5, row G, which means that when the catwalk came down I directly to her right, about 10 people away – I had a perfect view.

The moment “The Beast Within” came on I got chills and goosebumps all over my body. I was so nervous and so into it I had had to step away to go to restroom like four times before showtime. Then “Vogue” started and the crowd went wild. She sand it beautifully. “Frozen” almost broke my heart. I liked “Nobody Knows Me” more than I thought I would, and it was probably one of my favorites.
I was determined not to sit down at all, which I didn’t, and even told my friend that if he sat down he’d be walking home. I was trying to spread that energy around because even though the crowd was overall better than the previous night (she didn’t have to ask us to get the f*ck up!), I knew at some point the low-energy girls and their pestered-into-going-boy toys would eventually poop out and take a seat.
I adored the military section because Madonna was rocking it! Again, she sounds so good, and she’s gotten so much better at her guitar-playing. It dawned on me that “Burning Up” came out right around the time I was coming out of my mother, and it surprised me that I knew all the words. She didn’t forget the lyrics to “Material Girl” and totally rocked it.
I wish she would’ve performed “Hollywood” but the dancers, belly dancer and skateboarder kept me up and going.
“Hanky Panky” was playful, “Deeper and Deeper” gorgeous – I loved it as a ballad. During “Lament” people sat down, urgh…and then “Die Another Day” with the tango – it was awesome.
The video for “Bedtime Story” is absolutely gorgeous. For “Nothing Fails” she came to the right side of the stage, and since the dorks in front of me sat down I had a clear view of Madonna, which game me more goosebumps because I love that song. “Don’t Tell Me” with the “Bittersweet Symphony” sample was so good I almost cried. And then…the no-sitting-song…”Like a Prayer.” I almost had a heart attack. She sang, I sang, everybody sang, it was off the freaking hook!!! Then “Mother and Father” for which again some sat down even though she’s up there pouring her heart and soul. For “Imagine” people lit up and she did tremendous justice to that beautiful song – the crowd cheered when Lennon’s face came on.
“Into The Groove” with Missy on the M-I-C via video was the kind of song that made jump as high as I possibly could, or at least more than before. She put on her Kabbalists Do It Better (Yeah, we do!) T-shirt and had a blast spinning around with the back up singers and dancers. Then she did “Crazy For You” for which I hope the crowd would be more into it, and then “Music” and “Holiday” for which the catwalk came down again – loved it! Unfortunately they left me wanting more!!! So I’m going to the Miami concerts!
It was an amazing show – I give it on a scale from 0 to 10, 10 being the top, a solid 46!
