I could not beleive what hapened last night. I really dont beleive it, I thought that being at the SECRET movie premiere with her was special. this tops every Madonna event I have attended.

I got on the guest list and waited with my friend to get inside the venue, it was POURING RAIN out , I mean litterly the biggest rain storm I Had ever seen. The club decorated the outside awning with disco balls to fit the theme of the night but when the winds picked up and the rain poured, the balls suddenly started crashing down on us! Luckily no one got hurt. The guys at the door knew me and were really nice, I was so happy to get inside before the crush of fans, when we were inside, there was already a TON of people like at least 100 from a previous party that just stuck around and bought tickets to get inside again.

The tickets were advertised as $15 before 12, and then later $25 all night, to when you got there $40! Some kind soul let me borrow their john blair card to get in for $25, as it was a Madonna night, the last thing I cared about was how much it would cost to get in< JUST GET ME INSIDE~! After that we ran to the stage, the front of the stage was taken so we went on the right side where we were actually closer to her and could easily have her touch our hands. I was so xcited, But the waiting felt endless. I decided to sit down for a bit and PETER RAUHOFER was spinning some really hard beats that you could feel your whole entire body shake, I called my friend to have him hear what was happening, I got my other friend to get the extra camera I brought inside to take photos from his side. I was against this railing and the stage was really beautiful, it was ready for a diva to get on stage. IT was confirmed by alot of sources that Madonna would indeed be there, it was not a surprise but what she would do when she took the stage would totally blow us all away.

It starts getting close to 2:00 am and we see madonnas usual suspects walk by including her publicist Liz Rosenberg, her body guards and STUART PRICE. Once he took to the dj booth you knew it was only a matter of minutes some securtiy starting setting up and standing on different sides, press was there video taping the excitement of the crowds and taking alot of photos. Its 2:10 am and all of a sudden she just walks on in the must beautiful flowing purple dress very reminicent of the COADF cover album except with a mesh skirt. YOu could totally see thru it and how she wore those tight black knee length fishnets. I was in totally denial, this is MADONNA shes her, OMG!!!!

wow
she takes a mic and wants to start talking but it doesnt work right away and we coudl hear her say things likes, 'turn that bass off', cause the music was lower in the background it was so funny. She had alot of her friends behind her at this point, like the bergs and her assistants etc. She then talks to us and says that she has a long history with the roxy and something about NYC, it was hard to remember it was just surreal, then she says that shes gonna 'dance with us' She then tells all of her friends that were on the side of the stage to join her and they did, they all start dancing on the stage with her, and she had on the most beautiful high healed shoes, I was amazed at how effortlessy she could dance in them. Then she starts to come near the crowds and working the audience with her very like playfulness and she comes to my side and I start mouthing to her "I LOVE YOU" and she is at this moment totally focused on me and my hands are reaching out to touch her hand and she comes really close, looking at me and grabs my hand and like HOLDS IT, not just a pat but a real grip , I WAS SO HAPPY you couldnt beleieve, the first one to touch her that night and she was just so sweet to her fans reaching out to them as much as she could even though it wasnt easy for her in the front side since the stage was much further away.

Then some really huge balloons started flying over her on the stage and one of them popped and she picked up the part that fell on the stage and through it at me! I caught it, yet another memory I will never forget!!

I was in HEAVEN, this is all happening while a really cool remix of HUNG UP is playing, and she is dancing her ass off to it and mouthing the lyrics, I couldnt really hear the lyrics so well but after that song I could have sworn they did a second song or a mix of 2. It was a really long peformance. She was in the greatest mood, you could tell. Then at one point she picks a guy out of the crowd to dance with her.>>let me tell you , she knows how to pick them, he was a totally hot and talented he knew how to shake his groove thang, and then she asked him if he had a friend so they get him on stage as well, after they were done, madonna started looking for more dancers, the crowds as you can imagine now are really PUSHING HARD to get her attention to try to get on the stage, for a moment i thought would she pick a girl to dance up w/ her? I said probably not but you never know, She then proceeded to take another guy and they started dancing and then asked about his friend and he came up as well, I had never in my life witnessed this before! Madonna inviting her fans to dance with her on the stage!! IT just showed you how mellowed out shes become and more down to earth, she would never have done that 10 years ago.

When you were there, you could feel like she was totally connecting with you like everyone of us was a star with her dancing to her new song, Its hard for me to explain into words but if you could describe it without sounding corny it felt like MAGIC and She totally put us under he spell!!!!. IT was SO HOT, you coulnt really breath when she wa son stage, but WE couldn't get enough, she started to get water from her assistant and someone else would constantly pat her face down to dry her sweat. The girl actually dropped it on the floor and then handed me a peice of it! It was my night , what can I say?? It was totally like a boxing match, you know? where madonna gets back to her corner for a breather, it was hysterical.
After that song was over she blew a kiss to us and then started to leave but one of her friends grabbed her again, dancing with her and holding a cup with one hand splashing it on the floor, I was worried she would slip, thank god she didnt . The guy was dancing really close to her at one point and madonna was really showing off her dance moves. She was doing everything you name it. I was just blown away after that, she then started leaving , the song ended and we were desperate for more but she walked back to her lounge and we were all trying to peel ourselves off one another, everyone was sweating and just crushed ontop of one another.

I hope to get my photos on my site very soon, make sure to check back for that!!
