- <p> "Hi, Tokyo, genki desuka?" (How are you, Tokyo?) shouted
- Madonna to thousands of drenched Japanese fans. A cold rain
- fell for the opening of her Blond Ambition world tour (which
- comes to the U.S. May 4), just as it had when she last played
- Japan in 1987. In between hasty mop-ups of the wet stage, she
- strutted her stuff in a silver corselet, pretended to strum a
- harp and, when the rains came, pulled on a black slicker. What
- better attire for someone the Japanese call ame onna, the rain
- woman?
