Thursday 25 September - Jaz Beach, Budva

From Marta:
That day I went with my sister and a friend on Jaz beach. When we were there a lot of people were standing there on gates. We were standing and waiting there for about three hours. When the gates are opened that big croud starts to run to the second gates where the security dictated who is going where (depending on what ticket you have). Us three were waiting for about more an hour until we ger to our place next to the stage.
Perfomance of Robyn was nothing special and nothing impressive. Audience was very cold although someone recognized a few songs. For me the perfomance of Robyn was not very interesting, and she was standing just in one place and her songs were very similar.
Madonna should start at 9:00PM but she was late and started at 10:00PM. When I heard the intro for Candy Shop all emotions and feelings explode in me, and the video on big screen was great. When I finally saw her sitting on her trone surrounded by her dancers I started to cry because it was my first time to see her performing live and it was my first show. I am her fan for 14 years and I couldn't believe that someone could cry like that when they are so happy. Great choreography, similar to the promo tour but without mistake....excellent!
Beat Goes On - She sang without Pharell, but he appeared on huge screans, in special video created just for tour. Madge danced better than all dancers, but the best part was when she drove a beautiful white car just in front of us, and in the end she got out of it and danced the last steps.
Human Nature - This perfomance I remember perfectly, because Madonna was so close. She sang it much better than on the Drowned World tour.
Vogue - I have heard that in Vienna because of cold response Madonna wasn't into dancing this song and she made a lot of mistakes, but the people in Budva didn't give her a reason to be disappointed and so she danced it perfectly till the end. I was amazed by choreography and Madge's body. She danced without stoping and sang better than ever.
Die Another Day - It was just a video in which Madonna was a boxer. That is my favourite video, and on the stage there were two dancers dressed up like boxers and a ring in which they were 'fighting' and everything looked like mix of dancing and fighting moves.
Into The Groove and Heartbeat - She looked like a little girl, she was singing, dancing, screaming to us 'make some noise all the time'. There was sexy choreography and jumping, she was danceing also on strip pull and on DJ moving stage.
Borderline - One of her old songs, but I was shocked that not many people around me were singing, even when she perfomed it wonderfully, but she really showed the world how she sings during You Must Love Me, Miles Away, Devil Wouldn't Recognize You songs. But I didn't expect that she would sing it so good and beautiful. Public was amazed and she was also very happy and she was smiling all the time, probably because she was happy with how public react to her songs.
Devil Wouldn't Recognice You - Some people say that this perfomance was boring. I think it was good, but she didn't dance, everything was very mystic and she was singing under the huge screen which was dark.
Miles Away - Sounded much better than on her promo tour.
She's Not me, Music - With the dancers dressed like Madonna in her famous videos, she was dancing around them and I noticed that she kissed one of them at the end. But the point was that no copy can be better than her. Music started with Madge's rolling on the floor and she had beautiful wig and later with the choreography all the people were dancing together. It was wonderful atmosphere.
Get Stupid - This was also a wonderful video who showed about global warming, mass destruction, and Madge who gave a message to all to save our planet from the hate and war.
La Isla Bonita, Ray Of Light - Public was probably bored because they heard it many times on other tours, but I for me it was great because I have heard it first time live. And it is obvious that she loves La Isla Bonita because she was dancing with joy here and on every tour.
Doli Doli - Gypsy song, but the public was amazed when Madonna drank two glasses of liquoir and keep dancing like nothing happened.
In that last part of the show I remember 4 Minutes, Like A Prayer, Hung Up and Give It 2 Me. I think that between Like A Prayer and Hung Up she sing just for us (she said that) one of the old songs Express Yourself, and at the end of this song she told the crowd they were the second best of this tour. Weeee! And she had the best costume, choreography was the best, I even cryied when she was perfoming Like A Prayer because it is one of my favourite songs, and I was so happy that I was there.
Give It 2 Me - Was so great perfomance and choreography and because of her great ending part GAME OVER which signalled the end of the show. Minutes after the show ended she got into a helicopter and went back to Hotel Splendid. The rest is a legend, the media who said all the worst about organization, and no one mentions the great concert and how much it mean to her fans.

From Valio:
I saw Sticky & Sweet in Dusseldorf for the first time. But in Budva the experience was much greater.
I was the first line at the right of the catwalk, where the main stage begins. I could see the whole show.
Madonna was delayed by about an hour, because there was a problem with people entering the show. Security was confused about something.
Everything went well and the place was filled. Indeed there were many people. The audience was great. The show started.
There was a problem with the rotating screen at the beginning and green rays which shine on Madonna, when she performed 'Vogue'.
Madonna was in very good mood and constantly smiled.
Somthing that didn't happen in Dusseldorf was that while she prepare us for the 'Express Yourself' sing-along she made say after every sentence 'Whoo Whoo'. It was great. All were entertained.
The Gypsy group sung 'Romale', a traditional gypsy song before they started 'Doli Doli'. Budva went crazy.
For me it was my best show. Thank You, Madonna.
