    Madonna
    So I'm seeing these posts where fans are spreading this 'Greatest Hits Tour'  what I've learned over the years is that when Madonna is gonna tour you can't listen to fan sites. If she hasn't officially announced the tour, then there isn't a tour. All these people are getting excited from internet gossip with no official announcement,  come on people. If it's not on madonna.com then it's not real. These fan pages on Facebook are not reliable.

    I'm really excited, I got confirmation for the Madame X Tour at the Wiltern for November 14. I've been a Madonna fan all my life. I've been reading members posts on the forum and some of the posts are kind of sad. For instance, fans who were members back in the day when u had to pay for membership but when things changed on the website and became free. People now have different statuses.  I'm glad im a legacy member, but for long time fans who aren't given legacy status due to dates when they joined the website. That sux. I've seen M for The Reinvention Tour, Coachella, Confessions, Sticky and Sweet,  Mdna (awful behind the stage seats) and the Rebel Heart tour. So I know the excitement and anxiety of getting tickets. Madame X tickets are different than any other show. So it's been a new kind of anxiety to get tickets. Good luck and energy to all my fellow Madonna fans.

    So as of right now, I'm the only user online. There isn't much activity by fans on here these days. I guess everyone is on some damn social media site. There is something strange going on with ig, it says my account was compromised or some bullshit. I wish that i wasn't going to the celebrations tour by myself. I've been to concerts by myself and its not fun. I saw madonna at cochella by myself. i got lost in the parking lots, and searched for my car all night. it sucked.

    Life
    Well today is the first day of summer and my birthday is on Saturday, my birthday is always a depressing day for me. Something that is strange is the weather, June is almost over and I live in the desert and usually the weather has already started getting hot and temperatures are up to 100 at least. Even in the night time it will be pretty hot still, but there hasn't even been one hot day in June yet and right now it's 61 degrees. I've always believed in climate change but this is the first June that I've lived in the desert where it's not already getting hot. In my backyard I have mulberry trees and the mulberry fruit usually start to ripen in the middle of summer, they have already ripened and fallen off. The last few years it's been earlier and earlier that they have ripened, this is the earliest ever and the coldest june ever. I did see some news report that was saying this summer was going to be really hot. Humans have really screwed up the entire world. On a different note, it is wonderful seeing donald dump being indicted. That schmuck should have never even been allowed to be the president of the united states. The United States and Americans these days get alot of shit said about them and I agree. There was a time when I was proud to be an american, these days not so much. All of these idiots in this country who love guns so much and always talking about the 2nd amendment. You know what, the 2nd amendment is a bunch of bullshit. When that amendment was made there weren't AK47s and all this other crazy guns, and also. America was stolen from the indigenous peoples, so that the white man came up with laws and amendments for a land that was stolen. For America to truly be a good country it needs to admit it's sins and the land was stolen and the native people were murdererd. White man brought guns to a land that had no guns and people were already living here. So with that said, the 2 nd amendment is bogus and for people who start going on and on about their 2nd amendment rights I wish they would just shut the F up. Not all americans are gun loving idiots!

    If u look through my pictures, you will see him. You will also see a little chihuahua. His name is ian and that is his dog wilma aka miss little. He's my true love, we called eachother husband, i had practiced proposing to him many times. I gave him lots of rings. He was my best friend and the coolest guy ever. We lived together until  my drug addict brother turned everything upside down  and he moved to oregon and began to isolate himself and . I'm in California. Now we're not together and I'm all alone. I loved being alone and it didn't bother me. I could smoke weed all alone no problem at all. Now i just feel sad. I hate it .

    First I'm gonna say the last tour for Madame X,  I'm a legacy member and I got 2 tickets and I got them for 55 bucks. On Wednesday I heard about the tour and that the pre-sale was already happening.  So I went to check them out. I was only allowed one ticket, if I selected 2  it said I had to change it because tickets aren't available. So I wasn't excited about that. I'm not rich so I was going to use the option to buy now pay later. Well that offer was no longer being showed so I selected PayPal to continue because I've used that option on PayPal. Well when I clicked it that purchased the ticket. The tickets started at 120 for nosebleed seats, the ticket I got was almost 200 bucks and it's a nosebleed seat as well.  So I'm confused on why the tickets for the intimate theater tour were cheaper and I was able to get two. So the big arena tour costs way more and only let me get one ticket. I've seen madonna alone before so I'm aware I would still have fun. But who's gonna share the excitement on the drive to and from the venue, who is gonna share the excitement of the upcoming tour, just me. 230 bucks may not be alot of money but I have 5 cats to feed and the pay later would have been nice. But Ticketmaster has been ***CENSORED*** people in the ass for years so I shouldn't be surprised.  Does madonna realize that announcing a tour and pre-sales beginning that same day with no advance notice gives us poor people 0 time to plan or save money. Lots of people live paycheck to paycheck and not everyone has big savings. So I will say this. My excitement for this tour is lukewarm.

    Last last Friday my sister and I went to see xtina at the Hollywood Bowl. It was very cool she sounded amazing. There were some assholes in the crowd that were singing along and trying to sing with her it was annoying but xtina was great
    It was the first time we ever took a a park and ride. We went back to carsoj and we were both born in Torrance.
    At the end of the night to get back on the bus we had to walk through and between buses that were on it it was like a death trap it was pretty scary.
    There was this tunnel on the exit and the roof was maybe 6 feet tall end it was I wanted out it was very bad but xtina was great she had the whole Orchestra. And it was so good one thing I didn't understand was the Hollywood sign you see in the background from the Hollywood Bowl however the lights were not lighting it up so you can see it that's stupid why the f*** wasn't the Hollywood Sign lit up.

    I've been an Iconer since the 90s. It has always ruled. It use to be so personal and for die hard fans. Now it seems as if Icon is not what it use to be. The website is not very user friendly and there are issues that do not get addressed. However am i still a fan. DAMN StRAIGHT.
    The Staff is doing mediocre work and it is an insult to Madonna and her fans. There is a rotten apple on the team, or a few.

    I haven't logged on in ages. Due to last year being the worst year of my life, That will be another blog.
     
    I wish Icon wouldn't have changed everything over and over. A few years ago, it was really awesome, u could upload pictures, videos, blogs, and all that jazz. Then after Hard Candy the website was revamped or some jazz. Everything everyone had uploaded, was gone and a blank slate, all friends gone, and nothing was like it use to. Also, i didn't get to ***CENSORED*** about how corrupt ticketmaster is and the problem i had with the tickets to mdna and being a legacy member. When i saw sticky and sweet the seats i had were awesome! There was alot of hype and publicity for the tour. I was so excited about the superbowl as most of the world, It was amazing and i had tears in my eyes, (also I had the flu and felt tainted.)The MDNA tour dates and tickets were announced faster than. I live about 100 miles or so from l.a. I missed the presales for the los angeles shows, So I was going to get tickets for vegas. The day they went on sale being a LEGACY member u get to buy your tickets before ANYONE ELSE an hour before. I was going to buy 4 tickets and I put in the code and searched for tickets. I WAS NOT ABLE TO change the ticket choices, It only would let me select the most expensive tickets, In this economy I was going to have to do my hustle lmao. I tried over and hour and was hoping everything was gonna work out. Well I got f**ked, I tried to contact ticketmaster and there is no livechat help or anything. What kind of business treats their customers like that. Well probably many but that's not my point. I NEEDED 2 tickets. I ended up getting my tickets at stubhub for the staples center (bad place for a concert) I paid over 100.00 for tickets and I was PRACTICALLY BEHIND THE STAGE, I can't even believe that they sell tickets behind the stage, It was also a limited view! The sound system at staples center was bad, the acoustics and all that jazz don't work. When M has been at THE FORUM it was the bomb. I didn't see when MDNA made her grand entrance, i was trying to look at the back of screens to find her. BUT STILL i was going crazy and loving it. The l.a crowd are such deadbeat, unoriginal wannabes. i was one of those people in the back behind the stage dancing and having a blast. Unlike the floor seats and u see people just standing there! bozos. Anyhow, Then THEY RAN OUT OF PROGRAMS! and the staples center staff suck! I'm a bloody legacy member of icon and I was behind the stage with overpriced bad seats. I still luv it and have a whole blog i'll write about the mdna show, my view from behind. lmao,
    Another side note, On stubhub there was ticket packages available that they were selling for vegasshows that were not suppose to be available unless you were an icon member and had a passcode. How does stubhub have tickets for sale even before they were available to icon and icon legacy members. That sounds crooked. I keep mentioning legacy member cuz, that has always been a special deal and got exclusive things. So yeah stubhub sucks.
     
    Luv MDNA!

    So with all social media going crazy over the phone issue. I'm glad that the phones are being banned because all of these bozos with their phones out recording during concerts are annoying. 50 something days till i get to see The Madame X show!

    So today I've had the blues. I've struggled with the blues all my life. But it was the first time listening to ghost town and with the blues impending doom lurking above me. So now that the next song on is the piece of art. Paradise (not for me) I thought let me put my own sad spin of the queens creations. I know rebel heart will be there for me just like madonna has always been there for me.
    I pray that Bobbikris gets better.

    Well first off let me say interscope sux a big one!!!
     
     
    I ordered the MDNA dvd from amazon. I was so excited when I got it in the mail, HOWEVER! When I put the dvd on; I was in for a rude awakening. So the monks are coming out and ringing the bell.....THE PICTURE FREEZES UP!!!! I was PISSED! I fast forwarded to see if it was messed up it kept freezing and the sound still was playing! I put it in another dvd player, IT kept freezing up over and over again! I was getting more pissed! So then after being really disappointed after MONTHS of anticipation it was a real BUZZ KILL! So I go to amazon to get another copy of the DVD, Well when it came in the mail I put it in the Xbox to play and the MOTHERF*CKER FROZE IN THE SAME PLACE, The exact same place as the other one. So now i'm pretty frustrated. So I went to amazon and it says the dvd was out of stock and I would get a refund. HUHHHHHHH!
    So then I was reading alot of people were having problems with the blu ray and it was RECALLED!!!! What the hell! Interscope sux!!! Since M has left warner bros, the icon site has been out of wack! On all her other tours there was always alot of notice ahead of all the details. When the MDNA tour was announced it was right after the Superbowl and on Icon we didn't really hear jack about the tour when the tickets were on sale, etc. Now Interscope puts out Madonna's record breaking tour with a botched dvd/blue ray that doesn't work and gets recalled! We all know this has never happened in the history of MADONNA! She worked really hard on the project and interscope gets a manufacturer that SUX and does a shitty job of incompetence. How does this happen these days. Madonna is the queen of pop, a legend and the most successful artist, I would expect this from a hannah montana dvd or something else that sux! Another note, when Icon put the links out to buy the dvd, they were another country!!! Also I noticed that there was no live cd with the dvd, you have to buy it separately! What is up with that! With this economy I would have to do my hustle to get both! I had already paid an arm and a leg for 2 tix to the l.a. show and i was PRACTICALLY BEHIND THE STAGE! Horrible seats!!!!! So you can understand another reason i was excited to see the dvd and watch the way it was meant to be!
    Anyhow, I'm gonna go out and smoke some grass! Guess what i'm going to do in a moment......
    I'm going to attempt to buy the dvd again and pray it's not A BOTCHED poorly made disc!
     
    Rant over! I feel like Casey Kasem!!!

    So I'm blasting I'll Remember, I'm feeling the excitement and anticipation! It's like gonna be the bomb! I'm so excited to see her perform at the Wiltern, it's a beautiful theater.  Right now, all these bozos on social media.
     
    PAUSE,
    I'm having a meltdown.  will post later on this .

    So it's Friday March 13 2015. Madonna's new album came out Tuesday and it still hasn't been shipped yet. I'm dumbfounded. I read on instagram that some countries have ran out. I don't understand how or why? So far interscope has done nothing that's positive. The Last Madonna Disc They Put Out Was A Botched bluray/dvd. There was never an official statement about it being botched. All I heard was people had the audio setting wrong. Well that really doesn't explain why 2 separate dvds froze up at the same spot I might add. So wtf? While I'm ranting. I'll also throw out the fact that when madonna was with warner. The tour dvd came with a live disc. On interscope they sold them separately. Really. I wonder if the cd was botched too. #interscopesux

    Warning this might be hard to follow.
     
    So yeah, i finally figured out how to post a new blog entry. Am i the only one has a hard time finding out how icon works now. There is way 2 many steps. I mean really I thought Dishnetwork was not user friendly. I've been trying to change my username and it says it's been changed but it doesn't change. The Madonna app that is wack and I've actually tweeted madonna and guy oseary to #fixtheapp
    When I post something it doesn't show up and when i leave a comment it force closes and crashes. I even uninstalled it and downloaded it again. Cuz imma be real with u. I've been all into #unaplogeticbitch and it's like i can't express how much i love madonna and how excited and all the other things that u can share on social media. The users of the app that are able to post pictures and comments, the pics they upload the same reductive sh*t. Really. A really poor quality picture that isn't even clear. Really. Really The Queen of Pop is going to have an app but's not working correctly and i've sent dozens of reports to the sender when it crashes. This is the One and Only Madonna.Then I have these amazeballs creations and pictures and ideas and all stuff mdna related and the app crashes and I can't show my luv. Really Not a good look. I don't think it's acceptable. Also with all these leaks of unreleased photos and music that is out. First off I've been buying Madonna music since I was 10 years old and I bought the True Blue cassette. Also, I've never listened to leaks. I always wait until the day the album is released and buy it. Yes buy it. Since Like a Prayer i've always waited with such anticipation and excitement. I've been an Icon Member before it was free to register. So yeah I use to pay the annual fee to be in the exclusive Icon. I guess I'll call it Old School. I'm never thinking she needs to put something out right now. These fans these days are like New music new music new music, it's taking her so long. Really, I'm the real deal, not a novice fan. I'm a #diehardmdnafan I will not listen to it until the day that Madonna gives us some sonic sounds to luv.
    I just realized, this is almost like a rant! Not exactly a rant, but alot of shittalking going on. but hey. I keep it real.
    the new album. I'm so excited. It's sad that Icon has become a ghosttown. I think interscope sux, In all the years of me buying mdna merchandise i never had a botched and defective disc, not once but twice. Then the order was cancelled by amazon. WTF So yeah, I think the staff needs a serious meeting. This is Madonna and I don't think she'd be happy knowing that people who actually buy stuff are getting screwed. So yeah interscope sux
     
    It might sound like i'm an unapologetic ***CENSORED***
    But sometime you know I gotta call it like it is
     
    sonic pressure

    So Here's a quick update on the madonna app. It still crashes and does not work. I looked up mobileroadie instagram page, and remind you, they are in charge of the madonna app. I believe it has 6 posts, 36 followers and is following 4. Really, Well I'm not surprised, but come on now.
