I'm back from Köln!

the concert was the same setlist as ever, with some spontaneous action! She sang a few lines of I think Was bedeute ich ihr. It started with Liebe und freundschaft ... etc etc.

Right before she wanted to start her talk about PQTME a guy wanted to walk to the stage where she stood, but he got held back by the stewards/bodyguards. Then she said to them, "it's ok, let him come here" and he got to give her the flowers, and she signed something for him. Then she lay down on the stage to either give or receive a kiss (don't quite remember ). The she asked her bodyguard if he could hold the flowers for her, "but only if you give them back to me" she said to him repeatedly. Everyone was clapping for the lucky guy who got to give the flowers, it was a great moment.
She also said "now, don't all come up here, if u want me to sing the french song".

And another thing, I noticed where she and the band came from, which was on my side of the stage, though through the left and I was on the right. Since I'm Dutch I took along a Loeki de Leeuw EK stuffed toy, for the european championship and he was dressed in an orange shirt just like our team. During the concert the thought passed my mind to maybe try and get to the place where she leaves and give it to her or someone of her band at the end.
So at the end of MHWGO I made my way to the left side of the arena, but not too close so the stewards should feel like they should send me away. So as the notes faded more people came and they were told to go the other way. But step by step we we're coming a bit closer to the path she would leave over. There was no chance to give it to her dancers or the band because I was too far away, but at the end there were still just 2 or 3 stewards and more and more fans, so I just made it towards the path behind the last seat.
At first I thought Céline would maybe leave another way, because she was taking so long, but ofcourse she was shaking hands etc. And then she came, I could barely see her with all the guards but I managed to stretch my arm and reach my Loeki to her and she took him!
She looked at him and made a cute face, (like "oh, he's so cute") she mouthed a thank you and blew me a kiss    

So Céline will be cheering for the Dutch team with her Loeki de Leeuw (lion) in an orange shirt!!!

I was there as well. The lucky guy, who gave flowers to Celine, was sitting right behind me. He was soooo happy!!! And I was also lucky, because a row in front of me, there were a few chairs empty. So during MHWGO I jumped over chairs and took a place right next to the way Celine and her team was living. So... I hold her hand!!! Yep, I touched her!!! I was waiting for that moment for over 12 years and finally my dream came true

There were sth like 5 sectors empty. But all the cheapest tickets seem to be sold out. Anyway, very nice arena.

[irudzin]

The6thday, where was your place? sector 103? 102?

102 row 7 seat 6  

[pegasus]

I was in 101 btw, row 8, seat 3 and 4. But effectively it was row 5, since there were no row 3 and 4. Sad thing is that in the row in front of me, row 7 there were only 2 people in the entire row...

Well your pics are great and u were at my side of the stage, only I was at your right side.
I'd love to see your videos, but I couldn't play the ones from Frankfurt right yet, they have no sound and are played at slower speed when I open them. Do you have any tips on a player or codecs to get for them?

[irudzin]

(I thought the "guy" was a "girl"   otherwise it was a gay-guy as he hugged another "guy" after he gave celine the flowers)

We have been in 108 row 4 seat 1+2 there was no one in front of us, always a good a clear view on Celine, it was a wonderful show... I hope I will have the time to write a review soon.

[pepillo90]

Thank you for the pics!!

Can't wait for the videos

black with flash makes it transparent heheh it's terrible hehehe

[kathy4]

the pictures were great. was there any new merchandise?

[Dionesque]

I've been in Colonge concert as well and it was great! The moment where the guy gave the flowers to her and received an autograph and a kiss was soooo cute! The whole arena aplauded and I'm sure it was one of the best moments in his life!!! So lucky he was!!!!
I wonder if he's a member here??

I was seated in 3rd row section 108 but actually it was the FRONT row as there were no row 1 and 2 so I was totally happy!!! I was at the corner of the stage where Mego's piano is placed so during some parts of "All By Myself" and "My Love" Celine was standing right in front of me, facing me and she even pointed at me.... Or I just thought it was me she's been pointing at?... LOL! Anyway, I'm almost sure she saw me and recognized me.... I melted totally and couldn't stop crying... I think I haven't get as amotional during any other concert so far... She was SO CLOSE to me, maybe 5 steps away....

After those amazing emotional night I spontanously decided to go to Hamburg on Friday. I have no ticket for that show but I'm sure I can get one before the show as none of German shows is sold out.

It was great to meet irudzin, Viva Las Vegas, DuonganhCDF and Olivier at that concert! And I'm looking forward to meet you again - some of you in Hamburg, the others in Kraków...

Yeah, the show wasn't sold out but the atmosphere was really amazing!!! The crowd was very enthusiastic - just except to 2 other Polish ladies sitting next to me in the front row - they pretended not to be Polish when I talked to them (although I've heard them speaking Polish to each other, LOL) and they were sitting almost the entire concert... Nevermind...

I had an AMAZING time last night!!!! And an audio bootleg will follow soon....

[anewdayhascome]

Dionesque i so envy you! so many concerts!

[Dionesque]

Yeah, call me crazy but I'm just too much in love....
And Hamburg is too close for me to miss on that show, LOL!

[danger]

I knew you will come to Hamburg!!! I've send you pm:D

[Shamrock_1982]

I wonder if anyone at last nights concert managed to film the point where the fan came onstage, it would be great to see, lol.

[Dionesque]

One of my friends here filmed the show in Cologne so you will surely get to see that moment soon.
Anyways, the fan hasn't came ON stage - he just stand at the stage, right next to it. First the camera men showed only Celine but a few second later they placed the camera a bit different so the entire venue got to see the guy too on the screens! What a beautiful moment for him!!

I was seated in 4th row sec. 108 seat 1+2 and I really thought she pointed me during "My Love"...  

[Bruno Dion]

great pictures!!!!!!!! THnak´s so much!

[Dionesque]

Yeah, we'll never know who has she been pointing at exactely...
Sometimes I also have an impression that she "just" points in front of her without thinking of any special person in front of her... She cleans her head and probably don't even look at the people in front of her....
So let me think she pointed at me and you can think she pointed at you and it will be still correct!

[danger]

she is looking at you but she doesn't see you ....Dionesque what's important is that you where looking at her ....in dove in her eyes... pls answere my PM:D

[sean83]

@Dionesque

Let's say... she watched all of us near Mego's Piano in sec. 108   so nobody feels sad... (that's diplomacy   )
