I know i've said this a million times but I wish somehow someway someone could ask Rene if they're even thinking of doing a dvd at the end of all this.

[CSCfan]

Of course they will! It's just a matter of time/when...

[Dylan Callender]

Just been to the show last night (march 13). Her voice was incredible and in top form, it's been 2 years since I saw her last at the opening night and she was amazing.

Open arms - great opening song and changed so much since the premiere.

Mr.Paganini - she's having so much fun singing this, she's relaxed and funny at the same time. She does a few more scatting in the song now with a few nice high notes. One of my faveourite.

Lullaby - so pure and lovely, especially watching the videos of her boys on screen, they've grown up so much.

All by myself - as always a great performance and always great to hear the big notes, especially the last note.

Rolling in the deep - this has now been celinefide!!! She has made it her own and the orchestra makes it interesting.

Ne me quitte pas - the emotio she puts into this songs send chills down our spine. Sounded better than the studio version, her voice flows better live than the studio version. She cried so much during the song she was still wiping her ters during ABM. The best song of the night and a standing ovation.

Love can move mountains/RDMH - the HIGH notes of LCMM were incredible, I'm sure the notes at the beginning and end were close to the Bb5 mark. Everyone on their feet clapping and dancing and she has so much fun.

All in all the show was yet again amazing! Her voice is seriously sounding better than ever.

"Like"

RITD- you call it "celinefide" I call it "Dionized" LOL either way, she's getting it! The crowd loves it!

Mr. Paganini- I agree with you 100%. She loves this song and it was the highlight for me when I was there!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Just an opinion based in what I have seen cause I haven't already watch it life. But for what I have hear and see... Just make clear something that I miss so much from this show... the REAL ORCHESTRAL VERSIONS....
A perfect example of and original song and a real orquestral arrangements:

Florence & The Machine:
"You got the love"


And the performance with a orquestral arrangements:


And I hope they release a dvd  of Celine just to hear the audio in better quality...

Sadly have to agree. They had so many tickets unsold for Tuesday and Wednesday shows that they were selling them to the employees of I guess Caesars and maybe sister properties for $30 (at least this is what I gathered from standing in line trying to pick up my tickets). And although the employee tickets sold out (mainly upper sections), there were many empty seats in the ORCH seats, both front and rear (read: empty seats CC, DD, HH in ORCH 4).
Also, if you notice they have lowered the prices in ORCH 2 and 6 and split the seats into 2 categories, the $250 and $175 ones, for some shows. Also some side seats in 1 Mezz are going for $95 2nd mezz price, and some side rear orch is going for $140, which is a 1st mezz price level. A bunch of people in line basically want to see Celine upclose and are only willing to pay $55 for a seat. Naive peeps

Did you enjoy it? How was it?

[takeachance]

Hey guys, I was at the show last night, was too tired to write a review last night. But ill write a few bits now Stalked around the colleseum entrance out the back for a small time before the show, so I saw Mego , he was limping and on the phone, seemed to be waiting for something, so I didn't ask for a photo as he looked pre occupied, Saw some other members of the orchestra etc, So headed in about 7 2o to our seats , we were sitting in Orch 3 at the edge of our seats so Celine would pass us by during the duet with herself. There have been a few little changes here and there, for example the video during Lullaby now has pictures of the twins crawling/ walking and those shots of them with Celine on the beach, they are so cute and it shows them kissing each other!!! To me as usual she is singing most stuff live, I could hear lots of changes in the songs all the time (and I know changes as i'm a fan for 20 years!!) Especially during the French song, entirely live, And All by myself, she was saying "come on" and "alright" so definitely not lipping, it was actually as if she was proving a lot of the time that she wasn't lipping, she was saying little things at different times. Her legs looked incredible as usual, I seriously have to get on to finding out what workout I could do to get my legs like that with thigh muscles etc!! And she knows it too , she showed them off loads tonight!!! Am, what else? oh the joke with Mego lasts a little longer, you know the stoked with every note part, he keeps going on and on, and she says , that's enough darling and the light goes away from him cause he being so crazy. I found that Funny!!! The audience were ok , they didn't give that many standing ovations at all, which was annoying, I stood whenever with some other big fans!!! So I almost died when she passed me during the duet with herself, I actually felt really weird, my heart was pounding like crazy !! I was just like "oh my godddddddddddd""" So she was concentrating on singing when she was actually passing me so I couldn't put out my hand as I would have tripped her or something, There was a woman freaking out on the other side and another woman crying!!! I just had my hand over my heart and Celine glanced at me before she turned around to walk further on, I was dying a small death!!!! So she shook hands then with some guy in the front row.. He was pretty happy!!! As usual I loved Mr Pagamini (sorry cant spell), She loves this song herself and is playing away with her voice during it, its really fun and just shows how unbelievable her voice is, That's all I can think of for now, But the best part was I met RENE for the second time in my life, when we were leaving we spotted him around the VIP seats , he was having his photo taken with some VIP people, there was a few people including myself looking on over at Rene. I knew he was going to have to pass me by to get backstage so I stayed there hoping id get a photo with him, His body guard was being a little strict though telling people to stay at the right side, so then Rene walked by with his body guard guy, no random fan was doing anything, but Rene had glanced at me a few seconds ago, maybe expecting some of the people to want a photo. So I took the plunge and as he passed me by , I tipped his shoulder saying Rene, he stopped and smiled , I said "Can i please have a picture with you" He said "Sure you can", So my boyfriend took it, I said thanks so much to him, and he was so nice and friendly and really smiley the whole time, I could have said anything to him and he would have listened, he totally gives you time, but I didn't know what else to say (well I should have said , how can one get a god damn meet and greet with your wife Dude????, but I didn't!!) So that was pretty cool, I think the other fans around were afraid to do anything or ask Rene for a photo with his body guard there, I seemed to be the only one who got one !!! SO I am going again sat night and tues night.......Cant wait, Oh and I have Veronic tonight at Ballys, Hope some people enjoyed this review, sorry about spelling and its abit all over the place, but I need more sleep .

I loved your story so great that you got to meet Rene. He sounds super nice. If I could even make a sentence I'd prob have said 1) What do I have to do to meet your wife?!! Good lord I even sent you guys a letter back when she was pregnant with the twins a super sweet letter with my congrats and everything and got nothing back, thanks alot for that btw *sarcasm* and 2) please tell me your going to tape the show onto dvd cause it's freakin amazing!! But ya no I'm sure I prob wouldn't even be able to form a sentence so no point haha. But like I said so awesome you got to meet him sure he's not Celine but hey it's something!

Is it true they got rid of this background and went back to the old one? Anyone know why? I love this and think it looks amazing.  It's so much better than the boring sunrise over the ocean.  The only reason I would think it is gone is because it might look busy or complicated, but to me it is so striking that it doesn't matter.

It looks like to much, overwhelming only and you takes away from the waterfall. I am going to see her on Sunday and will post about the show, including if they have returned to the original background or if they are still using this one.

Got a question ... did not want to start a topic just for it ... when Celine goes on hiatus after the shows in March 2014 ... when does she usually return with new shows?

Go to the box office which is right next to the theater. You can pick them up whenever. I think they open around 9 or 10. All you need is the credit card you used to purchase them.

They don't usually ask for it but I always bring the ticket confirmation with my confirmation # and seat #s just in case.  they may ask for a photo ID, sometimes they do & sometimes they don't.  Have fun!

[Kristinaz]

I sound like a broken record I really do but I have a silly question with the first run in Vegas how far in advance did we know about the dvd recording. A few days, weeks,months etc??? I'd love to know if they've even begun to think about one for this show.
