Last year when I realized she was performing in Paris while I just arrived in Germany, I wondered if I would ever get a chance – concerts happen not often and since I had missed the one just then I had no hopes left. The Paris tickets were going out for about 500 Euros then.
On a sunny summer afternoon, while returning from my mundane grocery shopping I saw the poster. “Sticky and Sweet – Madonna in concert”! I stood spell bound and read the poster several times that it said “September 2009” and that it was happening in Munich!
The next thing I remember doing is looking up how to get a ticket. The tickets to the “Innenraum” – the inner sanctum were sold out and all that was available was the outer standing area. I didn’t even bother to consider the seating tickets that promised a better view. I knew I had to be as close to her as I possibly could get.
Half a day off at work, and a train journey later, I was close to the stage which spelt all the M-oomph of the Diva. She arrived diva-ishly late and then she mesmerized!
Amazing show, great visual treat, unstoppable energy. And I sang on top of my voice. So much that all the videos I shot went shaky and blurred. But hey, I lived my dream!
