Millions of Madonna fans – 3.5 million at 85 shows in 32 countries, to be exact – were lucky enough to witness the pop megastar’s record-breaking
“Sticky & Sweet Tour” live before it wrapped in September. But there are still millions more who never saw the show, which until now, hasn’t been broadcast for fans in US. So there is no doubt that we are proud to present this exclusive video of “Into the Groove” from her Buenos Aires show before its world premiere on EPIX.
See more, hear more, feel everything… Sky1 presents Madonna in stunning high definition!
On the 4th of July, Sky1 and Sky1HD will play host to a unique, sexy, and incredible event: the exclusive premiere of Madonna: Sticky and Sweet, a very special live concert recorded in December 2008 at the River Plate Stadium in in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Madonna: Sticky and Sweet features the iconic star’s greatest hits and songs from her latest studio album, Hard Candy. The controversial, record-breaking tour features four sections: ‘Pimp,’ ‘Old School,’ ‘Gypsy’ and ‘Rave’ and has won universal praise with The Times remarking, “In the premiere league of song-and-dance spectaculars, the queen of pop remains unrivalled and undefeated.” Madonna: Sticky and Sweet was directed by Nathan Rissman (Madonna’s “I Am Because We Are”) and is a Live Nation Production.
Stuart Murphy, Director of Programming, Sky1, 2 and 3, commented: “Spend a fantastic night with one of the world’s biggest music stars live in your living room…in high definition. HD will make audiences feel like they’re literally there with her. It’s fantastic, event television that only Sky1 can offer and the show is sure to set temperatures soaring this summer.”
DJ Enferno – known to his friends and family as Eric Jao – is from Fairfax and grew up in Northern Virginia. He’ll be spinning at Ultra Bar on Saturday night. He spent eight months touring with Madonna last year, but he’s stopped home for a bit of a break before going on her European summer tour.
So what’s it like being on the road with Madonna?
“She has so much knowledge– she’s been in the business for so long, she’s got so many good ideas, and she’s really witty,” he said during an interview with FOX 5. “That was one surprising thing that I found out about her. She’s really sharp and she’ll kind of bust your chops a little bit.”
DJ Enferno says he landed his gig with Madonna after the music director for the tour saw him perform in Orlando.
