Sticky & Sweet Tour: Werchter Fan Report

Here is another fan report from Madonna's one and only show in Belgium last night - these pictures and report were submitted by madonnalicious reader Tom: Just woke up from a fuzzy dream, but in fact....it was real.
With the golden circle tickets we went frontstage like never before. The whole crew was soundchecking, the Queen was right in front of us. 'This is the real f*cking show' she said and indeed it was.
We got a soundcheck of 'Ray Of Light', 'Frozen' and 'Miles Away'. She was in a extremely good mood. We were thrilled, this was truly truly way amazing. Dancers enjoyed themselves and made jokes with the early frontstagers.

It started raining but as we were where actually under the stage and could enjoy fully without getting wet. The stage had to take preparations for the rain which is probably why Madonna started at 22:15. God, she was beautiful as ever and was in a good mood like she enjoyed being in Belgium. The crowd went out of its mind.
La Isla Bonita, You Must Love Me were the absolute crowdpleasers. I saw the show in Cardiff last year, but this was bigger. 'Vogue' only was already worth to see the show again. The Queen was relaxed and happy. We had the night of our lives. Madonna, we love you!

'Hello Belgium will you sing with me?'

madonnalicious reader Stef sent in these pictures and report from Madonna's show in Werchter, Belgium yesterday evening. Yesterday I got up at 6:00am too nervous to sleep, Madonna was coming to Belgium, Werchter, for the very first time. Round 9:30am we gathered our stuff and drove to the venue.
We arrived at parking at 11:00am and sat down before the entrance just minutes later cheering and having fun. There was so much love in the air.
Britney performed there the night before and everybody was complaining she was lipsynching and saying she still got a long way to go as a pop princess, nothing like our Queen Madonna.
The weather gods fooled around with us giving rain, sunshine, rain and more rain. At 4:00pm the first doors opened and we went for our golden circle wrist band (THANK YOU MADONNA FANCLUB FOR THE PRESALES). We ran for a minute to find ourselves again before a gate. Standing there we could hear Madonna doing here soundcheck but black plastic kept her out of sight. Finally round 6:00pm we were able to enter the festival grounds. I ran and I ran shouting 'Where’s the golden cirle entrance?'
We placed ourselves right in front of the main stage next to the catwalk and who was on stage talking to the sound and light crew, wearing a beautiful purple outfit....MADONNA. I just couldn’t believe it, we all cried out to her and she heard us because she took her guitar and got on the runway.
'Hello Belgium will you sing with me?' Yeahhhhhhhhh!
'Sing after me. Rain, Rain go away. Rain, Rain go away'
Then she performed two songs including Frozen (a song she wasn’t really allowed to sing in Belgium due to a court case of a writer who claimed she stole the tune from him).

At 8:00pm Paul Oakenfold started his performance and I soon found out I took the right spot to watch the show as I was standing under the ceiling as it started to pour with rain.
The crew did their best to dry the stage and check if all was okay for Madonna. Her prayers were heard because it stopped raining for the entire show.
Then lights went out, visuals on the screen and there she was smiling and sitting on her throne as the Queen she is.
During the dancing she almost slipped on a wet spot and fell over some tapestry, immediately repaired by her professional crew.
In front of me was an Italian guy who won the Icon contest and went behind the scenes. Madonna paid extra attention to him, he even got to sing along with Into The Groove. As I was standing right behind him, I sang along as loud as I could.
The show was perfect even better then the last one. Dress You Up was a real sing along for all the older fans, Like A Prayer just rocked, Frozen was amazing, I was almost in tears with You Must Love Me and her tribute to Michael was so sweet.
With Ray Of Light she addressed the audience asking if they were having a good time and asking them to jump and sing along. I did miss Hung Up, I liked that rock version but no worries she didn’t gave me the time to miss it with all the other hits.
I could go on and on about the show but I don’t want to ruin the fun for all of you who still need to go.
After Give It 2 Me the game was over and we headed out.
Standing in front of the stage had one disadvantage.....it took us 3 and a half hours to get out of the parking on to the highway . It was 5:00am when I finally got home. Was it worth it? Would you do it again? My boyfriend asked me. Yes, Yes, Yes!
See you next time Madonna, love you.

Thank you RoseMary! I agree with all of you about the "Celebration" single, I love it too. I heard there are going to be 34 songs on her new cd? I wonder what the song list will be. There was a rumor a while back that she is recording this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIJnkZP7Hq8
I hope she does do this song, she would sound great on it.
