I don't like him either, he was periscoping and always stopped at the best part of the opening night.

haha no he wasn't my fave person in the world to begin with trust me but I was happy he was periscoping during opening night (though as someone else mentioned kept cutting off at the best parts!!) and I thought he might be able to get me to like him a tad bit more with this but alas what did I expect from him...he's never been too reliable.

The premiere was a really great concert! I'm still recovering from listening to the bootlegs from each night. Nevertheless, I have several thoughts about them.  

The show is still rather low-tempo, quite heavy actually and a little bit sad. We all know the circumstances but there could be more positive vibe.

They said they're gonna bring back more Celine's hits and ok they brought IS, I, ATW, TFTEISYF, ANDHC, TTWII and IA. But why have they included so many covers? I mean I'd be ok even with the covers provided that her original songs aren't shortened. And actually not only are the new songs shortened (especially the acoustic medley), but also so are the old show songs (WDMHBN, TPOL, BYLM, LCMM, RDMH, IACBTMN). So almost each Celine song is shortened while the covers are sung in full, I don't get it.

From the covers, I really like If I Can Dream and new arrangements of The Show Must Go On. But I'd really be able to live without them. But those 2 are really outstanding. Others are really too much. Prince medley, regardless how well she sounds and how she nails it, is just too much. The ending is not Celinish at all. I mean we have only MHWGO at the end!

I'm so so SO sick of Barnev segments, I'm ok with him when he sings with Celine but to have 2 individual segments of his is just too much. All the singers when they change costumes use THEIR songs as well, so why not Celine? Why does it have to always be a cover?

As for LMBTL album, I'm really disappointed. I know why they kept Incredible and it could be there if more songs are included, but no other? so counted on SLS

Now going song by song:

IS - I'm happy that IS is back though I'm not sure whether it should be the opener or not. It's somehow heavy and very powerful but maybe too serious for the beginning. I mean OA was quite light, positive attitude and fresh. And now we go from IDAN to a very serious song. Very dramatic to start a show. I’d put it in place of ABM. But, of course, the performance is breathtaking! And I love the fact that she does it differently each night! I was surprised that we had IS during AND and now even more, so Rene must like it somehow and I’m glad:)

WDMHBN/BYLM/IACBTMN/TPOL – Nothing special, they could have mix it a little bit more, or do this part differently musically/vocally etc. Her voice is stunning of course.

Interlude – I’m so tired of weird interludes

Mr Paganini / Quand ça balance – I like the way she plays with the song but I still think it should have been dropped, it doesn’t fit the show. It was nice before but now they should really keep to the original songs. Of course it goes well with the French song because they are both jazz songs.  But the French song is just so weird. Doesn't fit the show at all. She has so many better songs. And if she wanted to pay tribute to Eddy she could have chosen her song written by him, as she said he wrote her tons of songs! This section : out!

TFTEISYF – Nice to have it back! And the footage is so touching!

BATB – hmm she sings it differently, that’s nice

Interlude – Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawful, yeah Spinning wheel is no longer here, but now we’ve got a new awful wheel, too much Barnev

Immortality – Looooooooooooooooooooooooooooove it   , a big surprise, so happy that she walks through the audience, she sounds flawlessly, it’s just heaven, the long note awwwwwwww That’s why they should bring back MORE HER SONGS. This is why we love her! There is only one thing that I don’t really like, when she speaks after the song that it’s the first time she’s done a duet with herself, she HAS done one already...

ATW – I expected that, it’s always nice but didn’t surprise me

IICD – I loved it when she did for the first time on American Idol and it’s really outstanding during the show. Although, I’d rather she did more of her songs because I could live without IICC but I’m glad that she chose that rather than another random cover.

ANDHC/TTWII/IA – Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!! I still find the show very heavy and low-tempo even though they said they would go with more up-tempo. Acoustic medley is the only uptempo part which is the best thing they've done for the show (I don't count LCMM/RDMH). It's so uplifting, so magical. I'm in love with it. But why is it SO SO SO short? They deserve to be sung in full. And you how much fun people are having? It's definitely the highlight of the show! The best addition they've done. This should be the uptempo part of the show not LCMM/RDMH old story… I can't stop listening to it. All day long since Friday!   Got addicted what can I say

Incredible – I think they should really work on it more, it does sound flat but it has its potential. I think there is something wrong with the arrangements/rhythm. If not, choose another LMBTL song!

Unison – What a surprise!!!! What a bigger surprise that she doesn’t do it Why bother then? Why bring it and not sing it? I mean all of the interludes should include her songs but if they don’t and they bring such on old song, she should really do it and move LCMM as an interlude.

LCMM/RDMH – I know that we will never say goodbye to LCMM and that’s ok, but RDMH should be cut immediately!!!

ABM – the same goes for ABM, it’s totally out of place after uptempo medley and costume change, it’s boring, no matter how well it’s sung. But I have a decent suggestion what could be sung here…

TSMGO – I’m not happy about the covers at all but besides IICD this one was greatly prepared. It’s something different though old. And it fits the circumstances. But it should be the last song before MHWGO

Interlude – Another pointless interlude, some of you said finally something modern? but does it really fit here? why does she even has to change for two more songs? and more Barnev. I’m ok when he sings in the duets. But it’s just too much.

Prince Medley – Yes, it is jaw-dropping how she sings but I don’t get why it is included at all. It’s very random and people could have fun with Celine’s original songs as well.  In my opinion since TSMGO we have too many covers (take into consideration that they included several songs in the interlude) and it’s like we’re no longer on Celine Dion’s concert. And then to come back only with MHWGO? I really miss Celine at the end.

MHWGO – as far as the old catalogue and the old show are concerned, this is the biggest surprise and the most magical moment (besides acoustic medley). Nobody expected THAT! Totally in love with it again .The premiere performance is just her best performance ever. I love how she plays with it, finally gives emotions to it and it’s just above the perfection. It’s been brought to the whole new level.

SOTR – It’s touching but it’s so depressing. Just as Darren said, I’m surprised that TCOML didn’t make the list. It could have been perfect for the encore. I think they should do more positive songs during this show. The ending is amazing but extremely sad.

Some improvements I'd make... That would be a real come back to the originals with realistic choice of her songs. And before anyone says that TPOL is a cover too. There is a difference between TPOL and Kiss, right? No more comments about that.

01. Introduction (I Drove All Night)
02. I Surrender or The Greatest Reward or Let’s Talk About Love
03. Where Does My Heart Beat Now
04. Because You Loved Me
05. Classics Medley (It's All Coming Back To Me Now/The Power Of Love)
06. Jazz Medley (Mr Paganini/Quand ça balance) On Ne Change Pas
interlude ONCP fading and some other French instrumentals?
07. Immortality
08. The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face
09.Beauty And The Beast
10. All The Way
11. If I Can Dream Medley Falling Into You/Let’s Talk About Love (if not at the beginning)/To Love You More
12. Alone
13. Incredible Somebody Loves Somebody
14. Interlude (Unison) LCMM
15. Glitter Medley (LCMM/RDMH) LCMM/Unison
16. A New Day Has Come Full (still acoustic, why not? Love the idea )
17. That's The Way It Is Full
18. I’m Alive Full
I Surrender interlude! or Breakaway interlude or LMBTL interlude
19. All By Myself  I Surrender (/or if IS was supposed to open, then Breakaway or more realistically LMBTL)
20. The Show Must Go On
18. Interlude (By The band) bleee
19. Prince Medley (Kiss/Purple Rain)
21. My Heart Will Go On
22. Somewhere Over The Rainbow The Colour Of My Love

THAT would be a concert!

I am so agree!!!

RC can sure look sharp when he wants to. It's amazing how grown up he looks when he's not in a baseball cap and shorts. Put a suit on him, slick his hair back and he looks like a 20 year old man. LOL. Also nice facial hair there RC! What will he look like next. Seriously. I can't handle him growing up, it's making me feel old.

Glad to read that Rene reacted well to the treatments in Boston and that he was well enough to keep sending notes right up to the start of the show last Thurs. Apparently he's due back in Boston in mid-Sept, so I guess good news is they haven't given up on treating him.  Fingers crossed.

I'll agree. It really is a hassle free process. I have android and used the default voice recorder app. Put your phone on airplane mode, put it in the cup holder with the mic facing up and press play. That's it until you get to the room. Take your no phone  and its charger cord, hook to the computer and it will open up all your files, drag the sound file to desktop and then from there that file needs uploaded on media fire or another site..... the whole process just takes a few minutes.

Wonder if Celine will be able to be there with him? Glad Rene is responding to the new treatments. Let's hope it continues 💕

I've just looked and Celine's last show is 12th sept and then back on 29th September.
Yep,wishing them all the luck in the world. Hoping it'll be a good two weeks for them, that all goes well.

Thank you for the upload!

Celine should probably consider removing ABM from the setlist permanently. I mean it's very obvious from her rather uninspired and lazy performances of the song that she no longer enjoys singing it. So why bother, right? The show can stand without it anyway.
