[Belle Céline]

just wanted to update I added some more to my blog and wanted to post it,I'm sure some of you will appreciate my spazzing in some of it lol

well as you are probably aware my best friend and I for my birthday(which was september 29th) went to see Céline Dion in concert on monday night.We left monday morning to go to Columbus,Ohio.I was up at the dawn probably because I was so excited.,I know I was up super early because I was ready to go,we took a Greyhound bus since it was alot cheaper than gas to drive all the way out there.It was seventy round trip and would have cost Miranda and I atleast three hundred dollars to drive her truck out.Neither of us could afford that needless to say,anyway it took about 4 hours give or take a few minutes to arrive in Columbus,the bus ride wasn't that bad,we had music,a dvd player,no food which was a bad thing I  barely ate at all that day,I was starving by the time we got to my sisters and I could barely eat dinner because I was so anxious to leave for the concert.It took my sister a few minutes extra to come pick us up.We got to my sisters hung out for a bit,Miranda drooled over the kitten my sister has then we got ready for the show which I was practically bouncing around the house after I got ready bugging Miranda to hurry up so we could leave,I was driving everyone nuts pretty much,we had dinner and left.Well we ended up leaving a half hour before the show and got stuck in miles and miles and miles of traffic which was going to the show.Yes I was starting to panic the closer the clock got to eight pm,I was ready to jump out of the freaking car and run down the interstate to the place if I had to,I WAS NOT missing this concerT!And I know people have gotten stuck in traffic jams and missed the entire TWO hour show!!

After another half hour around eight or a little after we made it to the place where the concert was,Scott dropped us off in the parking lot we ran for a shuttle to take us to the front of the building and after quickly buying a t-shirt,tourbook and some decorative pins(yes I had to get the pins they were only ten bucks lol a bit to much but I wanted em.) we made literally a mad dash,well sprint rather around the building trying to find our seats which were pretty much nosebleed section.Well instead of running around like shoesless idiots(yes I had no shoes on it was to hard to run in heels for me especially since they were to big) we asked where to go and another guy who works at the venue came up with two tickets and asked if we were the only two in the three hundred section and we said yeah.Well the guy asked if we wanted to be upgraded,he hands up two nearly FRONT ROW tickets!!!We were five rows from the front!!!


Miranda and I were literally two feet away from Céline Dion!! I'm seriously happy for the rest of my ENTIRE life!I couldn't have ask for a better day!!The side section of the stage came right into our section and we got some pretty decent pics with our phones since we were told they search bags and you can't take a camera,well they were wrong they peeked in my bag and told me to go!!ughh wish I'd had the camera,anyway it doesn't matter.We were so close we don't need great pics to remember it!I'll post pictures I get a chance to eventually.But anyway the show starts Céline comes up from under the stage on this lift and the lights come(starting to go nuts and bashing Miranda on the arm at this point and then....) Miranda and I burst out screaming as loud as we can and are on the edge of our seats!

At one point just before this I was so hot because of all the lights and it was sweltering  hot in the place I seriously thought I was going to pass out.I was feeling dizzy and waaaay to hot,I started fanning myself with the tourbook to cool down and considered getting a drink but I didnt want to miss a second of the show in case it started before I could get the drink.Although the heat didnt bother me so much once the lights went down and she started singing I was to focused on watching  Céline (and singing every word to the songs to be hot)we were going totally beserk!the people beside us are probably deaf which I don't care at this point,the guy beside me was so rude!he complained he couldn't see when we stood up when Céline came to the side section and sang.Well to bad for him,it was my first show and I wasn't letting some old guy tell me I couldn't stand up,we did anyway!I was thinking dude okay Céline freaking Dion told us to stand up and sing and dance,you wanna tell her no be my guest but I'm not!

During the first part of the show Céline came over to us and looked RIGHT AT ME&Miranda!!She talked to us and told us to 'stand up,dance!' and god did we ever!We stood up screaming and reaching our hands out and if the next row hand't been roped off I could have stepped over and touched her hand but I didn't want to get in trouble so I stayed in my row.Looking back I wish I had went over the seats and tried to shake her hand,but knowing me and my spazzyness and how much I wanted to shake her hand I would have passed out and missed the rest of the show!!  Céline's voice is absolutely amazing,it gave me chills espeically when she looked right at me!(I seriously cannot believe she looked at me!I'm still freaking out over it and it's been a month almost since the show!Like I told my dad I'm NEVER going to stop talking about this concert unless I get to go to another one then I'll talk about both of them!)We took alot of video's and pics which I'll post the pics we can't do the video yet because we don't have a USB cord for Miranda's phone.But anyway Céline had several costume changes which were really quick and she would come right back out from under the stage except for one time she used the steps.She sang alot of her new songs and some older ones such as My Heart Will Go On,she closed with that and they brought all the lights down except for some bright lights,she had dozens of candles on the stage lights that would come down and they had these beautiful small dotted lights that went over the crowd.

I think my favorite song of the night besides Fade Away,I Drove All Night and MHWGO was her cover of Queen's song The Show Must Go On.It was amazing!and she sang We Will Rock You!At one point in the show a fan had her in tears that had floor seats,this woman tossed some roses on stage,Céline bent down and picked one up sniffed it,thanked the woman and the crowd was awwing the whole time I definetly had tears in my eyes I so wanted to bust out crying but I pulled myself together haha,well Céline being the sweetheart she is brought the woman to the edge of the stage,hugged her and then said to the crowd  very quiretly" the songs not over..." because she was in the middle of a song when she stopped to get the rose.Well then she said "I forgot what key I was in!" and had to turn to her band and ask.Also at the start of the show after IDAN she talked and said she didn't know what language her son would speak by the end of the year because they've been to five contients!She also said being the baby of fourteen kids she liked to talk because at home when she got to say something she just kept talking because it wasn't often she could get a word in.Finally she said "You know I could talk all night and not sing?" she did stop talking and started into I Drove All Night.

This has been the best birthday ever for me,I never thought I'd actually get to see THE Céline Dion in concert and never in my life did I think I'd be TWO feet from her!! My dream finally came true!I got to see Céline!! Hopefully you enjoyed reading my spaz about the show,I still get chills when I think about her looking right at Miranda and I and talking to us!After the show was over and I bought my tote bag which I plan on carrying for well ever and Miranda bought me a poster which I lurve!We headed outside to call  my brother in law and walked past a group of girls singing MHWGO yes we sang long too as we walked! haha then we went over to the fence where a ton of tour buses were down below and started hoping,well I was hoping to spot  Céline of course that wasn't where she came out at she probably wasn't even done chaning out of her dress from the last song at this point.But still we stood there for a few minutes anyway.Oh yea my brother in law when I called to tell him we were out so he could pick us up I told him about being so close and  Céline looking at us he said and I quote "that is awsome as hell." and this is coming from a man who is a pure metal head,listens to nothing but rock and HE said it was AWESOME how close we were!So ha! to all those  Céline haters it proves people who don't like her can think she's cool!

Here is a set list of what she sang:I Drove All Night/Intro and IDAN remix

It's All Coming Back to Me Now

Can't believe it's been almost a year since I went to this and my dream came true of seeing Celine in concert I still watch my video's on my cellphone constantly and listen to the songs on my ipod. My next dream is to go see Celine in Vegas!!

Two more days, still can't believe its almost a year. I keep listening to the songs and watching the video's on my phone and ipod. I still remember it just like it was yesterday!

[Belle Céline]

anyone else know what happened at just about 8:57pm one year ago tonight?

I do! The intro video for IDAN and had just finished, then the music started and Celine came out from under the stage and started to sing "I drove all night to get to you, I drove all night to get to you, is that alright? Is that alright Columbus!? Let me hear you Columbus!"

[remykyes]

one year today! Wow! How time flies! Hopefully we'll get the DVD soon so I can remember this concert forever!

[Belle Céline]

I'd love the TC dvd to but remember the concert footage for the US tour was filmed in Boston, not Columbus sadly. Though I wish it had been, there were a lot of great fan moments at the show.

[remykyes]

I know that, but we got the same setlist. That's really all I meant. I knew that we'd never get COLUMBUS on DVD, but I'm so glad they got Boston, because "The Show Must Go On" was HOT!

Oh I loved the Columbus TSMGO and WWRY.

[Belle Céline]

did any HQ's ever come up from the Columbus show? I know the local newspaper took pics....but I doubt anyone else did professionally....
