A year ago tonight I saw Madonna’s Celebration Tour in Boston, and it remains a highlight in the Madonna concert canon. In so many ways it was a spectacular greatest-hits show (more-so than Reinvention) and one that felt surprisingly-moving on many levels. It also reminded me of my lifelong love for an entertainer who has never given less than her best, even on her most trying days. That sort of dedication and work ethic seems in short supply these days.
Like all of us, Madonna is getting older, but I have a feeling there are a few more magical music tricks up her sleeves (should she choose to wear any), and maybe a classic return to something as renowned and beloved as her ‘Confessions on a Dance Floor‘ opus. Words has it that she’s working with the person who helmed that seminal work (Stuart Price) for an upcoming album. If anyone can catch lightning twice, it’s Madonna.
