On Monday I said there were no cool concerts coming to town. Scratch that. Madonna will make her first ever Vancouver appearance this year.
The closest Madonna has ever come to playing a concert in Vancouver was a jaunt to Seattle in 1988 on the Who’s that Girl Tour. Since then, we’ve seen U2, The Rolling Stones, The Police, Janet Jackson, Pavarotti, Bob Dylan, Prince , Backstreet Boys, NSYNC, Britney, and everyone else in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame.
But not Madonna. NEVER have we seen Madonna.
This year, that changes.
Today Madonna, the Mother of all Pop Icons, unveiled the itinerary for her Sticky and Sweet Tour. Scroll down fellow members of the 604, cause only one date matters. Finally, we are worthy.

WOOHOO you definitely made my morning!
I was hoping she would come to Vancouver, considering her last 2 tours were in Toronto and Montreal.

You can bet she will add another show in Vancouver.
