I went with my friend whose been to 5 previous Madonna tours and she said Madonna keeps the arena warm for her voice. It's purposely warm per her request.

Wow! You sound like you need to get out more. Go to the arena all the time, have never felt unsafe.

After attending Eras where the sound quality was impeccable (at least in Philly) with no feedback or scratchy speaker sounds whatsoever, I have to agree that Madonna’s sound quality last night was kind of meh. At times it sounded like she was shouting into the mic and other times the base was so loud that it overpowered her voice. Was kind of surprised that someone of her caliber doesn’t have a more a sophisticated sound system, but again, I now compare everything to Eras and TS has basically ruined all concerts for me moving forward bc nothing can top that.
+1
I heard the same!

The lights were mostly strobing and I had to keep my eyes closed. I had to plug my ears because the bass was way too loud. She didn't dance. Her guitar skills are elementary at best. Her voice was off key several times. I just don't get it. The show is sensory overload. all this stuff gets thrown at you, but none of it is very well done. It started more than two hours late. It was a health hazard with the high temperatures- massive germ incubator. I went becuase I had a free ticket, but wow it was pretty bad.
She is an old bag. Give her a break.

Does she not get that transportation has a curfew in this city? This screws everyone who didn't Uber.
Transportation is ideal in DC. It cannot be improved.
Lol.
Plus two hours late?
When her best songs were her first album?
No thanks. Save your money.

She did go on late and was unapologetic about it as is typical with Madonna, but she's worth the wait. She did not disappoint. We left at 1am just before the show ended so we wouldn't get stuck getting out of the garage, but honestly don' t love the last two songs so I don't think you're missing much if you go and sneak out a few minutes early.
Ray of Light hands down was one of the most mesmerizing concert productions I have seen outside of Eras. If you love Madonna then go! She is not slowing down and was on point the entire night.
We’d love to see it but it looks like we are still maybe 6 songs away from it based on the set list and we’re going to have to get back to the car by 12:30. ☹️

Madonna said that she goes to bed every night at 4am. I guess she sleeps all morning.
Interesting routine. Some people are night owls.
I have something in common with Madonna! I tend to sleep from 4 or 5 AM to about 3 PM.
