I love that they are implying everyone who's gone to Vegas since Celine hasn't been able to succeed lol.

Ha ha so true and Babs turn it down because she want to tour (and probably make more money touring ha ha).

And perhaps she realizes that touring is the best way to remain active in the music industry?

I hope it's Celine but according to this article it could also be Neil Diamond

Well it says he's joining Cher and Céline....but Céline hasn't even been officially announced yet..

Could be both of them! They still need someone to fill Bette's (and perhaps Cher's) gap, until March 2011 (and afterwards)..

[ladylindsey]

Celine's Vegas gig  WILL be announced tomorrow on Oprah! So it has to be her! I mean thy heard her say it right out of her own mouth!

Yeah that as well.

I can't even see Barbra doing well in Vegas. i see her doing about as well as Bette. I think Céline has surpassed her idol!

Wow, they asked Barbra to sign a $100 million dollar deal for 3 years and she turned down.

I am not sure Barbra could follow into Célines footsteps

and Barbra isn't touring either.. is she?

Don't think she cares enough to succeed

[ladylindsey]

Doesn't Barbra have stage fright? I read that somewhere. She has terrible stage fright. ?

[Nmj]

How does she have stage fright after all these years?

[ladylindsey]

Here's an ABC news article about it- sorry if I went a bit off topic, but if she has stage fright, I don't see how vegas would be fun for her! Unless she was using it to get over the fright.. dunno.

Hahaha oh god this makes me laugh! Bette Midler failed?? I don't think so!! i'd love to know where they find this crap?? She made $71,815,701 in total and nearly 600,000 people saw the show! I know its nothin to what Celine made, but Celine was there 5 years, Bette was there 2 and in the middle of a recession! She was always top of the ticket ranking, occasionally falling to number two when Cher was on! Barbra would do no better than Bette or Cher, in fact I would say Bette and Cher are more beloved than Barbra, as they seem far more accessible. Just my opinion.

Celine i think should maybe contemplate something else, people will forget about her in Vegas. She needs to claim her stake in pop music again! But whatever she decides I'll go with her

i dont think anyone can ever beat Celine on this. Vegas was Celine's thing, it told the world that Celine doesn't need to go to her fans like others artists but her fans come to her, it shows that Celine has a lot of power! Bette and Cher is great, but they were never one of Vegas' main attractions  

barbra should have took that deal, they are paying her too much, she isn't even that famous. she has 62 albums but how much did she sell? Celine has 23 albums but how much did Celine sell? and dont forget French albums dont sell as well as english. you just can't compare them, and i dont think Celine would be happy if you did.

To joing Team Celine or not , that is the question?  
the website is really un user friendly when you go about trying to join! they ask for address to send out a package or something? weird....you should not have to wait 7 working days to get all the benifits......I d be so mad if i joined today and if the tickets went on sale on friday.....when your travelling across the world and all !!!!ahhhhh!

I just renewed my TC about a month ago and when you purchase the membership, they immediately send you an email with an activation code to register and get into the TC website so you should be able to use the TC "benefits" right away. Then they send a package with your letter and membership card and gift in the mail.

Thanks LadyLindsey, I wonder so if I join like today , I wonder would i be allowed to buy tickets in the presale if there was one  

I'm pretty sure you would be, as all you need to activate your membership is that activation code they send in the email. Let's hope we actually get a pre-sale and that the TC block of seats are better than the regular seats!

I know what u mean, I just purchaced TC acct. not sure whats in store for me, but I 'm NOT going to TChances on not getting bad seats for this one. but I will call TM/Caerars Palace.

It will cost a bomb if i ring ceasers palace from my house in Ireland! but if i need to do that to gaurentee good seats, ill have to think about it .   I remember when i was at Taking chances tour in dublin, I could see all celine fans , like a major flock of them with tour books, hats etcI was almost sure it was team celine stuff they were all wearing, like 100 or more fans all together, but to me they hadnt got good seats at all!!! like i couldnt see celine at all, barely, i could just see her on screens properly, those guys had worse seats than me. Thats my opinion anyway from what i remember,So if they are the kind of seats team celine offer, well it kind of sucks. But anyway, it doesnt look like TC are going to be offering ANY seats from the looks of things, so i dont know.....
The moral of my story is is that i want really good seats and havnt a flying clue how to go about getting them!   i wont be going if i dont get one of the frontish rows  

well you could use a free program called Voipbuster - all it needs is a headset with microphone. You can call to many countries for free!

So the stage is now higher in the front?
I guess they must have taken out a few rows in the front because you would have to bend your neck back.

Yeah

Darren.

There are more rows now, not less.  (Remember the pieces of the stage Ticketmaster is selling?)  CP removed the "raked"/inclined part of the stage and added in more rows to make up the difference.  They also added mini catwalks on the sides of the theatre.  THUS, fans sitting in ORCH2 or ORCH6 can now have a chance to shake hands with Celine if she decides to walk to those mini catwalks.

Great.  Thanks for clearing that up Joe

Well with 31 orchestra members we can be assured that the tix will be expensive.  I've seen AND many times and if you want to save money you can get a good seat in the 1st Mezz.  It allows you to see the entire stage and everything that's going on.  Although I doubt the new show will be as visually appealing as AND.

It is better to sit farther back in one of her shows. During the TC tour I was 3rd row and you didn't see as much as you wanted to but I'm so grateful to have seen her from the 3rd row!!

So we have heard March 15 and 25 of 2011 we will have to see tomorrow but the article is probably right that the date is 25.

Well that's disappointing.

[ashleylovesceline]

Is anyone else a tad concerned that this show won't do as well as A New Day...? I mean, A New Day... was spectacular - no one had ever done anything like it before. And now this new show seems simple (although we know next to nothing about it) like it would pale in comparison. Not even any dancers? No Dragone? Of course, I'd see her no matter what --- but will everyone else?

I really hope they give us some info. soon, and hopefully have reconsidered selling tickets on Friday. At least she'll be there for three years (according to that article) for those of us who won't be ready to buy tickets so soon.
