Confessions of a Madonna Whore part 37
MJagger called me this morning to talk about her experience at last night's Madonna Concert. Yes, that's two nights in a row for her. Believe me, I would have loved to have been there, too. You can never see too much Madonna. I don't know how she was even out of bed this early in the morning, but she was. (I was so excited for her that I had trouble falling asleep last night. I also must confess that I spent an hour on eBay yesterday looking at tickets for the concert. I found some affordable ones but then decided I was too tired and crusty to drag my sorry ass to the event. I'll check out Sunday and Monday tickets, tho...it's like an addiction, like getting one tattoo leads to wanting more tattoos...)

(By the way, I saw the coolest Madonna tattoo on the belly of this lady with metallic silver hair at Wednesday's concert. We struck up a conversation about the tattoo--people with tattoos are kind of like being related. She had this tattoo for 11 years, so she's a true blue fan.) 

MJagger was accompanied by her sister Bon Jovi for Thursday night's festivities. What a lucky sister! This time, MJagger was much smarter and wore dancing shoes instead of non-supportive flip-flops. They had kick-ass seats...and, since MJagger is the jedi of seat-hopping, they ended up being in just about the best seats on earth--only three rows from the catwalk. She said there was no traffic during this trip to Chi-town and that they had plenty of time to chow on pizza and suck down some beer. Knowing what was coming sounds like it was delightful--MJagger knew that Madge would pop out of the disco ball, would get the crowd boogie-ing during "Music," etc. Sounds like she could barely contain herself. She and Bon Jovi started out in the "wrong" (read: unassigned) seats before the concert and didn't get booted out until during the first song. (What is wrong with these people? Why would they be late? For pete sake, they missed Madonna pop out of the disco ball!) They moved to their assigned seats, albeit only for a few songs. Then, it was off on a mission to move up in the world. You gotta love these two. MJagger found herself a sweet spot next to some dancing queen, who was so happy she was there because she was dancing and he couldn't get anyone to dance with him. He did "the bump" with her and everything--there can't be many better things in life than bumping with a gay guy at a Madonna concert. (MJagger's husband has nothing to worry about--that's pretty safe.) She indicates the crowd was "better" Thursday night than they had been Wednesday, so that's groovy. Neither of us have tickets for the next Chicago shows....but there's still time.....
