Tuesday 18 November - Ford Field, Detroit
From Jennifer:
Madonna appeared on stage in Detroit at about 9:40pm. She had a huge smile on her face as she took the stage at Ford Field. In metro Detroit, Madge normally plays the nearby Palace of Auburn Hills....but tonight she played the massive football stadium.
The crowd at Ford Field about 40,000. Several times during the night she talked about how happy she was to be home. She said 'Detroit Rock City, give it up for your hometown girl' and 'I need to tell you it's good to be home. There's no place like home'. She also mentioned her father was in the crowd.
The request song was Material Girl. The fans first requested Causing a Commotion, but Madonna said she would not sing that song.
She looked great, the crowd was wild and the show was amazing. A great homecoming in Detroit for Madonna.
From Shaun:
I was at the Detroit show on Tuesday night. Madonna was having a great time. I also saw the Chicago show a couple weeks ago and it was incredible, but there was something special about her being in her home town.
The show started over two hours late, but that just got the crowd more excited for the Queen to come out on her throne. She mentioned several times throughout the show how happy she was to be in Detroit.
Material Girl was a great request song because the entire stadium was singing along. After she was done singing she laughed and said that she can't believe that she became known for that song, she then said, 'I am so not a material girl!'
