The audience of celebs and die-hard fans who actually made it through the doors in time for her 10 p.m. set (which was broadcast on the Web via MSN and to mobile customers of Verizon Wireless) seemed more awed than ready to groove when Madonna hit the stage in the city where she first made her name, spending time texting and taking photos to prove the experience had really happened rather than dancing.

Eventually the tracks faded, making way for the sound of Madonna singing the chorus from Hard Candy opener "Candy Shop," at which point the lights dropped and the nights main attraction emerged on a throne swinging a cane. Giant projection screens flanking the stage displayed mesmerizing animations of spinning candy as Madonna strutted around the stage in tall lace-up boots and a lacey black top with six dancers in tow.After greeting the Rosetta Stone German crowd with, "All right, New York City!" she was handed a black acoustic guitar with a sparkly silver strap and immediately launched into the new albums lush but wistful "Miles Away," assisted by a small band consisting of a drummer, two keyboardists, the DJ and the guitarist who played her past three tours, Monte Pittman. After stepping up to the front of the stage to strum the last bars of the song as images of airplanes landing and plane tickets flashed on the screens behind her, Madonna retreated only to re-emerge a moment later, after Hard Candys first single "4 Minutes" kicked off with a brief fanfare.
