But it's true that people think Madonna has 'over saturated' herself with some places that you know she's going to go to like Toronto, New York etc but that's always her biggest shows so it's obligatory. I think the routing of the 2008 and onwards was smart. She's going to a lot of places she's never hit in 30 years. Speaking of her Canadian market it was only Toronto and/or Montreal but not she's expanded out West and for the MDNA Tour she did Ottawa which is the middle of Montreal and Toronto and also the Capital here so there's lots of money to be made.

You know, I DID want to amend myself yesterday and say that she chose to perform in some secondary markets recently, rather than center her shows around the dozen-or-so major cities in North America.

If you only want to listen to her music from 2000 onward, I'd say Confessions is an excellent place to start. I feel it's her best album of the 00s so far, personally.
However, I would recommend giving the 80s and 90s a chance, as that material helped to make her who she is today, and great pop songs never age. The production may be of its time, but the songs are timeless. The Immaculate Collection and GHV2 would be decent samplers if you're ever inclined.
lemme unstan you.
I would not mind an album of Love Profusions from this one.
He knows it's nothing but love
