Madonna in Nice


The Material Girl paid a visit to Nice this week and as you can see she certainly wowed the crowds. 49,000 people turned up to see what was touted as the first "proper" concert of this tour..though I'm not sure what that made the first concert in Cardiff.
According to our local radio station she looked like an 18 year old, was toned and lovely. My son took one look at that photo and said, "She shouldn't be wearing clothes like that at her age" I won't bore you with the details of the debate that followed...but, oh the intolerance of youth.
Did I go? The queues for the car park alone would have put me off. But I do regret missing Eric Clapton who played at the Sporting Club in Monaco at the weekend.

PS Just to add that the queue thing didn't apply to Clapton and, yes, I would have queued for the guitar god. He played at the Sporting Club in Monaco, a sort of very swish night club where you're entertained while eating dinner. They have some class acts there in a fairly intimate setting, seats about 400 I believe. Any chance of a photo, Jilly?
