CONFESSIONS ON A CLUB DANCEFLOOR.........................




well i dont know about down under but i tell you what, london is gripped with madonna fever. this has to be somewhat what it was like when beatlemania swept the planet.

after a tragic outing with "american life" madonna samples abba's "gimme gimme gimme" and claws her back to the top of the charts.

what is the question i have been asked the most in the last week?

"how can i get tickets to madonna?"
"do you know how i can get tickets to madonna?"
"when are the madonn tickets going on sale?"
"can i get a pass for next staurday?"
"where is jeremy?"
"can you tell me how i can get madonna tickets?"


i think you get the picture.

the owner of the club came up with an idea that he would give away vouchers that entitiled people to buy a wristband ( no tickets will be on sale- you get a wristband that you have to put on there and then to prevent scalping)at 10.30 and everybody else will get a chance to buy tickets at 12.

these wristbands can only be purchased the day of the concert.

to get a voucher you have to know jeremy the club owner.

this has been a great marketing ploy as the club has been packed with people hoping to catch a glimpse of him. of course- they all buy drinks while they wait for him to appear.

i personally think he has done this to get even more people sucking up to him than usual, as he is like everyother nightclub owner- typical slimey fourty year old with beautiful 18 year old hanger oners. i think he imagined being come onto by every model and their best friend- but instead he has been basicaly mobbed everytime he walks down the street.

hahaha.

sucked in.

that'll teach you you!

at the club last night they released a heap of balloons from the ceiling to fall over the crowd and inside some of them were the precious vouchers- not tickets to the show, just a voucher to be IN LINE to buy a ticket!- and the crowd went nuts.

these madonna fans are rabid i tell you! they were screaming like teenage girls who you'd think were all were charlie bucket and they just found the golden ticket to willa wonkers chocalate factory.

i decieded to note down everytime i heard a madonna song yesterday and got to 14. that doesnt include the 7, yes SEVEN times i heard "hung up" in just one day.

its boarding on mass hysteria.

a local paper cheekily wrote that jeremy came up with the most complicated ticketing system ever and the only way to get to see the show was to sleep woth one of the bar boys!


but despite all the bullshit, i will admit it is a bit exciting. its hard not to get a bit swept up in it when it is all anyone is talking about.

madonna this and madonna that.

just to let you all know i did like the new song the first time i heard it but it has somewhat lost its novelty after the 400th listen.

:-)


i will send you all pictures of the show.

not long till x-mas now.

i am thinking about volentering at a homeless shelter or something if i cant get down to israel in time.

ias always, hope everyone is well and i miss you all HEAPS.
espeacially my baby alex.
