Popping culture: No Madonna in Moncton?

It’s time to play nice.

Although I kind of slagged on Madonna’s recent video in a previous blog post, there is no denying that Madonna knows how to entertain the masses. Criticisms aside, the material one did indeed put on a visually interesting and entertaining halftime show during this year’s Super Bowl. Madonna is currently on a media blitz, including doing commercials with Jay Leno. If there is one thing she knows how to do, it’s sell her own brand.

Admittedly, I have never seen her perform live (although I will admit to having watched the Blond Ambition Tour on video ad nauseum as a teenager) and was curious when I heard a few months ago that she might be coming to Moncton, New Brunswick. I would even possibly pay the high ticket price to see her strut her stuff on stage. But the tour dates were announced last night, and it looks like Moncton isn’t on the list. There is, however, a three-day space between Quebec City and Boston, so who knows.

Maybe one day I could hear her sing this:
