where did you see this poster?
The Nov. 28 show at Solaire Resort and Casino isn't confirmed yet. And if it is going to happen, the rumor is that it's strictly by invitation only.

This is a neat poster!

Quite disappointed too that more than half of the VIP (the entire front half) had been sold/blocked out before tickets were opened to the public.

Anyhow, at least we still managed to get VIP seats.

I didn't think the 27K was worth it for VIP seats from the 16th row onwards and I also didn't think that the closest patron seats available were worth the price. I ended up settling for a lower box seat, which at the price I paid for, would get me front row seats at Celine's show at the Caesar's Palace. Now, if I was confident the show was going to be 100% live with absolutely no playbacks, that's a different story

I actually wrote a tweet about this issue and tagged the organizers to confirm whether extensive pre-selling has indeed happened but I doubt I'll get any replies.

Hmm I don't think it's fair enough to compare the front seats price of her vegas show with Manila's VIP price. Take note that she's going out of her comfort zone. Travelling and stuff.

Also, manila's patron price wouldn't get you to the front seats of her vegas show. Your airfare going to the United States, your hotel accomodation and stuff, it may actually cost more than the VIP price. That's just my take.

Oh Definitely! If you consider that I will be travelling from Philippines to Las Vegas, just the airfare would trump the current VIP ticket price. I was just speaking in a hypothetical situation of which I was already in Las Vegas to do more things than just to see her show. However, I do admit you have a valid point about her going out of her comfort zone, traveling, and stuff. You have to factor in transporting all of their staff and equipment. But even so, it just seems a bit too expensive. The best tickets at Japan sell for less than half as they sell here considering the disparity in standard of living. People in Japan could spend 26,000 yen (the cost for front row seats) much more easily than we can spend the same amount in our own currency, yet the prices here are much steeper. I will go a step further and speculate that the bidding between the organizers was extremely competitive leading to an overall higher price for the contract. To tell you the truth, I wouldn't be complaining so much about the ticket prices if they gave us better seat choices by not pre-selling half of the arena to God knows who.......

With ticket prices being as insanely high as they are, you guys BETTER get a TRULY UNIQUE SETLIST!  If your show ends up being TCWT or her Vegas show with a few LMBTL and/or Sa songs thrown in, I'll feel really bad for those who spent a ton of money to see her.

I'll definitely take note of each and every single song she performs so that I could post the setlist here for you to judge. I know it's tempting to look at what she would be doing in Japan before she goes here but I wouldn't spoil it for myself.

I am also thinking about the steep price, it is Celine s first time here in our country, compared to Japan where she has already performed so many times. Regardless of the price, I believe we are still thankful she considered our country as one of her destinations and making it as the culminating part of her Asian tour. =)

I do agree with you about the unavailable seats prior to the public selling. Perhaps perhaps, that is the cause of the postponement of the original date, July 30. Hmm. I am just giving them the benefit of the doubt. We will know 3 months later who are these very VIP people. =)

[jeremyv]

I don't even know that much celebrities and politicians to reach 7,000 but I'll definitely be asking the people over at section 217 (I'm seated at the very edge of 218) where, when, and how they got their tickets, and how much they paid for it

[rhaps]

nice idea jeremyv. i was really disappointed when i saw that all upperbox seats near the stage were already sold out/blocked. no choice, have to deal with the next available seat. Im at box 419, adjacent to your area. hope to see you there.

bornzey i think i know you...by the way, nasa VIP u?

[jeremyv]

I dont' know what compelled me to do this but...


I might update this on a weekly basis

Celine is estimated to make $476,000 per show on her Las Vegas residency.

I wouldn't feel bad at all if I went to see her and it was the same setlist. Yes, I'd love to see her singing an unique setlist, of course, but just seeing her sing anything, in my country, would put me on cloud 9.

[powerofamor17]

I think itll pretty much be the same except for a few more LMBTL songs and TLYM. Thats pretty damn UNIQUE to me considering she dont usually do these songs. Also itll be her first Asia tour in a long time so I think theyll be more than happy for this setlist. I think its unique when she changes like one song for a more gruesome song, (TLYM IS A MUST. )

checked it now bronze, the upper box (Php5870/USD134) is already sold out. patron (PHp17490/USD398) has 1 seat left. mostly the lower box remaining seats were almost sold out like lower box 218, 2 seats left. i think, tickets sales were pretty good

Thank you. It is good actually. Knowing that there's no promo for this tour yet here in the Philippines so other Celine fans do not know she's coming here or the tickets are now on sale. Also, there are Celine fans out there who doesn't have the money yet and will probably buy the tickets on their payday. I am one of them. I'll get 2 tickets probably on the 15th or 30th of August.
