    Never went to the concert, but had a great time watching it.

    I first discovered Madonna music on Youtube, I did not really know Madonna, I heard she was just a famous pop star, and wasn't so special. But, when I heard that her first concert was something impressive...

    It was top quality, guitar solos, dancing moves, enthusiasm. The atmosphere seems to be so gigantically great, frenetic and crazy. And even by watching the concert on the DVD: Dress you up, get into the groove, holidays.

    I just can't imagine what it was like for people to see her performing this date. It must have been terrific. No,,, really, it must have been terrific,I just have goose bumps only by thinking about it. IT is a life time experience

    The Virgin Tour......Where it all began!

    I was 14 when I first seen this concert and I was captivated from the very first song, 'Dress You Up', I'd never seen anything like this before. Madonna bumps and grinds through every number, I was glued to the screen, her energy and sex appeal was just overpowering, She belts out every song with such force and ease, engaging the audience at every turn. Her voice was strong and you know she was in charge of every line she sang. Midway through was a bit of a change and a highlight for me 'Gambler' where she dawns the dark glasses and writhes around a pole for this pumping hard rock edged tune. You can tell she is proud to be back home in Detroit, where she grew up, the crowd go wild for every song and break in to a frenzy when she screams , wearing the infamous white wedding dress....'Will you marry me'? as she struts her stuff for 'Like A Virgin' The whole concert is charged with her demanding sexuality and its impossible not to be taken with every step she makes. Its fascinating to see how far this remarkable woman has come and how with each live concert she makes another huge leap forward.This is a glimpse into a Legend in the Making! A must see for any music fan.10/10

    Madonna Live: The Virgin Tour (1985 video)

    It's interesting to look back at this show and see how far concerts have come before large sets and video screens were introduced you just had to concentrate on the dancing and the singing. This is the show where Madonna had two men as backup singers. I guess it would have been exciting and scary for Madonna at the time to perform for her first tour. You can see all the Madonna wannabes in the crowd it's a rare sight these days to see fans dressing up like their favourite idol. Strange ending of the show with Madonna laughing in the background I don't know what that means. Also, at the beginning of the show she tells her viewers what her dreams are, and how she's made them come true not an easy feat in the real world.

      The performances of "Angel", "Borderline" and "Burning Up" were removed from the track list of the video, as Kleinman believed that Madonna's performance was not her best in them.
    • Quotes

      Madonna: "I went to New York. I had a dream. I wanted to be a big star, I didn't know anybody, I wanted to dance, I wanted to sing, I wanted to do all those things, I wanted to make people happy, I wanted to be famous, I wanted everybody to love me. I wanted to be a star. I worked really hard, and my dream came true."
