Today, Team Madonna responded.
“The shows premiered in North America at Barclays in Brooklyn as planned, with the exception of a technical issue on December 13 during sound check,” Live Nation touring company and Madonna’s management said in a statement. “This caused a delay that was well documented in press reports at the time. “We intend to defend this case vigorously.”
