  Madonna's "Virgin Tour" 1985 kicked off at Seattle's Paramount Theatre with the Beastie Boys as her opening act. The KIRO 7 web team dug deep into the treasure trove of archived tape to find a snippet of Madonna's performance from 1985 -- a clip that hasn't been broadcast since the night of April 10, 1985. It shows nearly a minute of "Dress You Up", which was the first song she performed that night.
