Well, I saw the first Toronto performance of Madonna's Sticky and Sweet tour last night. Accompanied by my sister and Parker (who defied all concert etiquette and put his tour T shirt on right away) I spent about 2 hours watching and listening as Madonna went through 23 songs (4 of them video interludes between sets) and hardly broke a sweat in the process.
Verdict?
I liked 2004's Reinvention Tour better.
I'm not going to slam Sticky and Sweet for anything in particular; it's a slick performance, it's loud and rockin the whole way through and doesn't have any of Madonna's ballads on the playlist although things do slow bown a bit for her performance of "You Must Love Me" from Evita. It's just the sheer amount of content from the Hard Candy album that gets on my nerves as I did not really like that one as you might recall.
The crowd was happy though. And Parker loved his first Madonna experience despite having had a bit too much candy and feeling a bit icky by the time we were leaving.
So it's Sunday now. I have so much to do at work tonight it's not funny, and the week ahead is going to be packed with things. I have 3 events to staff and work at this week, which will be fun because I have recruited some of my best to work alongside me; the week will fly by. Next weekend will be my chance to get some rest and try to get back to something akin to normal.
Speaking of back to normal, or maybe the same old same old is more accurate... I was looking at some of the conversations I was having on PlentyOfFish.com and I realized that I was treating it as a replacement for gay.com and hoping it would be different. And it wasn't. Try as I might to do things differently and engage potential suitirs online on different grounds, I was still running into the same sort of players who just wanted to meet for sex, or tried to sell themselves based on attributes I wasn't really keen on (like the sudden surge of men nicknamed "HairyGuy" or "HairyCanuck"). So I deleted my profile before I got in too deep. That leaves me with Facebook and Globalfight, and let me tell you Facebook is on the edge itself just because it's useless. I haven't logged onto it in almost 2 months (not in a dedicated way or anything) so I think I may as well let it go.
Cleaning house can feel so good, even if it could potentially limit my options for meeting anyone new. I may just have to meet them the old fashioned way like going out and going to events and talking to people... *gasp*
That is all.
