Waiting for Madonna
While we are all waiting for Madonna to play her amazing Live Earth ending set here are a few tidbits.
Madonna arrived at Wembley half an hour ago to prepare herself for the performance, Yesterday we asked our friend Nicky Richards, who will be performing with Madonna on stage tonight, if she was ready to rock. “That’s right Baby, you KNOW I’m ready to get all the way down“, she jokingly told us. We also learned from one of the dancers that it wasn’t so easy to choose the three Madonna songs that are part of the set list in addition to the “Hey You” opening number.
They flew in London last week’s Thursday , and started dance rehearsals on the Friday, while the band had rehearsed 8 to 10 songs. They later have narrowed it down to the final three + “Hey You”.
Presenters of the BBC channel were earlier commenting Madonna’s performance confirming the Gypsy music to be included in her performance. As our readers remember M-Tribe exclusively reported earlier this week the Gogol Bordello band will be adding their unique touch to the “Confessions Tour” version of the classic song “La Isla Bonita”.
