Several rumours have been circulating recently about the chance that the stage of Madonna’s re-Invention tour will have a special shape to include two “vip pits” areas.

MadonnaTribe sources are now able to confirm the rumour, but – not to bust everybody’s excitement – we understand that the only way to get in the pits will be through promotional giveaways.

Well, another quite expensive way to “get into the pit” actually exist, and as far it is really expensive, the good thing is that the proceeds are going to charity.

Sweet Relief Musicians Fund, the same who produced the 1996 compilation that features the Madonna & Joe Henry duet “Guilty by Association”, is indeed currently auctioning on ebay a pair of tickets in the VIP pit at Madonna’s show on Thursday, June 24, 2004 at New York’s Madison Square Garden. Here’s what they say about it:

“As if being at the front of Madison Square Garden for one of Madonna’s shows isn’t enough winners will also get a signed photo of Madonna. Madonna has always been a wonderful supporter of Sweet Relief and now is your chance to help her help struggling musicians. Bid now and help Madonna support artists in need. This charity auction was sanctioned by Madonna.”
