Hey everyone,

so the long awaited, long discussed Celine-Munich-Concert is over.

All in all, it was great.
There were truly magical moments.

Before I get into details, I have to say that "My love" only was worth the ticket price. Unbelievable. So tender, so much feeling...stunning.

And that leads into the stuff I have to critizise a bit. I think she performed a view songs too often and that showed. She is a true professional, so it was never that obvious that she was not so into the stuff like "To love you more" or other songs she performed day by day in Las Vegas. But for a die-hard fan it showed a bit. She had much more passion about the new stuff like "My love" (oh my god) and "Taking chances" (great live version).
Also the stuff they re-arranged like "I´m alive" was great fun to her and to the people.

The stadium was fairly empty - 20,000 people, say the papers - not that great for a stadium that can host 65,000 people. They did a great job in moving the stage, so it looked ok.

An absolut dull moment was "We will rock you" - that just does not fit. Strange to hear that from her.
"The show must go on" was amazing though. That would have been enough to pay tribute to Queen - if she wants to do that, for whatever reason.
"Shadow of love" also did not work that well for me live.

And the thing I was concerned about the most - the stage - did it´s job. Don´t get me wrong, it was nothing great at all, but all in all it was ok.
Kinda strange to see Celine walking to her dressing tent on stage before the intro movie startet - that took the "wow"-effect away completely. The people around me were like "what the hell is that...??"
Also, everytime she changed her dress you could see her walking out of her tent towards the back of the stage to "appear" in the back. Weired.
The light show was fairly good though.
All in all, the stage was not as bad as I thought it would be, but it was far away from being great. Not suiting a star like Celine. Not at all. Not that she needs much - I know she is great - but it was a pretty dull thing.

Highlights were "All by myself", "Pour que tu maimes..", "I´m alive", surprisingly "Eyes on me", "The show must go on" and of course "My love".

The concert was great, she was great, "The power of love" was definitely live, by the way, which was great (the only playback stuff was "i drove all night", "it´s all coming back" , "to love you more" and "my heart will go on" - was very obvious, you could tell a difference in how the voice sounded) but I think Celine and hear team should have taken a break after Las Vegas and go on the road with a production that is smoother, more innovating with new arrangements for the songs and a better stage.

But - I would pay the same price again just to hear that amazing "My love".

[Nikosn17]

Thank you everybody for the reviews especially Julian. I'm excited to hear ''Man's World'' . It's always the highlight of her concerts. Everytime she performs it sounds different and that's what I like about it.

[Teodora]

Nobody cares that "Celine" and "hot-pants" were used in the same sentence?    Looking forward to seeing all your pics and videos.

It wasn't included at any show with end-stage. So she hasn't performed "Fade Away" in Berlin, in Frankfurt and in Munich. Other German dates included the song.

great reviews guys

[I Surrender]

Julian ur review is killing me. Cant wait for all the goodies

[freakyali]

God, I'm just arrived home and I still can't believe at what I saw yesterday night!
It's been unbelieveable for me.
I was in the front row, section A3 place 15, well exactly in the middle!!!
She was amazing, too beautiful, extremely powerfull!!!
She looked at me so many times, we also laughted together ...
During "Love Can Move Mountains" we all jumped under the stage, we can say "under her feet", she was in front of me, there was just one meter between us!

I saw her for the first time in Amsterdam on the 2nd June and it was great, but yesterday night it has been unique!!!
I was so close to her ...
And she also caught our peluche this me! In Amsterdam even if she tried to take it, it didn't arrive on the stage ... yesterday she took the frog!!!   (if anyone has a pic of it ... please let me know)

I have some pictures, they are not so great but I'll post them here as soon as I can!!!

@Julien: I'm the girl that was in front of you in the first row!
I'm sorry the security dind't let us do what you thought for "Pour que tu m'aimes encore", the idea was great and Céline saw it, she winked at us!

Ooo, I'm curious to know what you guys wanted to do.

[OlivierAllemagne]

What a great show it was, the best one of all those I ve seen. In a way I think the non-central stage is more intimate. it was so cool that there was a few seats free thank to which I sat right in front of Celine row 4 instead or row 21.

At the end of LCMM as we stood in front of Céline, security guys wanted all of us to go back to our seats !!! I tried to explain this was permitted to stay there from LCMM until the end (as Vincent, one of Céline's guard had confirmed us before the show).

Even at the begining of LCMM they aasked us to go back to the seats and Vincent told them that it was ok.

Suddenly, two security guards litterally "took" me with their arms and "put" me out of the stadium during RDMH, they pulled me over for about 2 minutes in front of everybody and prevented me from coming back !!!
During that time of course all others had stayed standing in front of Céline.  

I had not been violent or nothing but just tried to explain that we can stay standing in front of the stage from LCMM and until the end... Can you imagine two security guys took me as if I was a dangerous hooligan, while all other could stay... Vincent (one of Céline's bodyguards with whom we had talked before the show saw what happened and he said sorry to me for the bad behavior of those security guys. Eventually I ve been able to go back in front of Céline standing, by the end of RDMH... But was really shocked.

Anyway appart from that the show was FAB, and we saw Céline at the auirport she signed for us. we also saw Miguel and Aaron after the show. and they signed again for us (Aaron has signed for us in Franfort, Stuttgart and Munich lol)

Thank you julian and kristin for those wonderful adventures, I m already nostalgic :-( Next concert for me is on Geneva

[freakyali]

Some of the pictures that I did ...
"Eyes On Me"

[MartinMunich]

i know people here will hate for that, but now that some hours went by and the excitement is gone a bit i have to say that all in all the show was not very good.

i was looking forward to seeing celine sooo much - i love her and i still think she is wonderfull.

but if you compare the 99-ltal-concert with yesterdays concert there are worlds between (and not only a 45,000 people crowd difference).

back in 99 the show had a flow - musically. it was fitting together.
yesterday, everything was thrown in - dance, rock, "we will rock you" (which every school rock band plays) followed by "it´s a mans world" - a set list like a karaoke show.

celine was always known for deliviering highest standards of quality - even her haters had to admit that.
yesterday, the sound was terrible.
plus, anybody could tell the differnce between her singing live and the playback stuff.

the stage was nothing but a joke. a cheap joke.

people saw her walking on stage even BEFORE the intro video started - they did not even bother to cover that walk somehow.
there was absolutely no effect to support the show. a few lamps. thats all.

and - as a newspaper from berlin wrote - you can tell that she was sometimes bored by the same old songs she is doing in the same old version over and over, day by day for years now. the passion was so acted - except for the new songs, it felled completely different when she did those. she was into that.

i am a bit afraid of the fact that this tour could be her swan song.
the show was rushed together, old arrangements, dull stage - but still a wonderful woman.
i think she needs an artistic refreshment so urgently.

My heart was beating as hell when the playback during "It's All Coming Back To Me" now stopped and the big LED screen switched off for a couple of seconds    She was sooo lucky that she did the right thing by continuing to lip... if she had stopped for only some seconds it would have been a mess when the playback started again!! But she was soooo nervous and shocked after this and always looked to the sound engineer.. you could really see that she was breathing really fast because of her nervosity that it could happen again during "To Love You More"

So what did she do then?

Right thing: she continued to lip.
Viva las Vegas explained it clearly enough, right?

So I don't understand it...
The playback stopped and she countinued to lip?! Isn't that strange?!?
Why did she lip as there were no vocals played in the background..?
