Sportpaleis Antwerpen (Antwerp Sports Palace)

Location:

Antwerp, Flanders, Belgium

Notes:

Very late start: doors open 18.30 and show didn't start until 21.45. technical problems. public transport had to be delayed, so last trams would go at 00.50. I arrived at my hotel just about quarter past midnight, having left at the Billie Jean & Like a Virgin medley, which was almost at end. She sounded better than 36 years ago during Who's That Girl world tour. More like theatre show than concert some nice touches, but didn't care for interludes like the long "Vogue" section with Madonna and Lourdes? Giving marks to voguers including one of young twin daughters of Madonna. Loved the version of "Burning up" as a rock song, with Madge playing guitar. Some songs "Open Your Heart" for example were very different almost unrecognisable.
