It is really hard to read through this post due to all the bickering...

Anyway, back on subject...

Portland, OR is being sold through ComcastTIX.com (and not Ticketmaster)... and they go on sale 11/9/7 @ 10:00AM. (This is the same for Philadelphia, I believe).

Jennifer, are you sure? I checked out the website but it didn't pull Celine's name up. Can you please send me the link?

Ohh, never mind. I found it and for right now it is only TC tix and i already used my limit. Man, this whole "limit" thing is PISSING ME OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I haven't bought tickets for this tour yet and it gives me the same error: "Sorry: This Passcode is either incorrect or has already been used."

Vic, are you coming to Montreal?

80% yes, the other 20% depends on the price. I hope it isn't going to be $520 like the other ticket (which one is it?) :wacko:

On TM it says that Montreal is whatever to $1,100!!!!!!!!!! That is insane!

November 9, 2007 at 01:08 AM

I hope the price is a mistake! it's like my only opportunity to see a French concert. :confused:

Is it just me or did they update the ticket prices for Montreal? CA $65.00 - CA $1,100.00 :blink:

Wait.. so could you tell me where you found those tickets? I'm looking for the Philadelphia ones.

November 9, 2007 at 01:10 AM

It WAS $195 last night... and this afternoon it suddenly went to $1,100.. I don't get that.

November 9, 2007 at 01:11 AM

I just logged into TeamCeline, found that concert list, clicked on "tickets" and apparently they're doing Philadephia & Portland via ComcastTIX instead of Ticketmaster. :glare:

No, I saw that too. This afternoon it changed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They jacked up the price!!

OMG! That's a huge gap, where in the world are those CA $1,100.00 seats on Celine's lap?!? LOL

November 9, 2007 at 01:13 AM

Alright. I know that you Vic asked people to stop talking about it... but I want to say some words here.

- I think some people are going to far here. Of course I do not agree with the attitude of some people who instead of sharing their disappointed they got angry and decided to insult others.

- I think also that some people didn't understand the point of view of some members here. Stacy, nobody said here bad things about US fans. Some people - including myself - at least this is what I meant --- is that US fans got the privilege of having Celine for 5 years in Vegas - which was also good for me - and you guys also got the most cities she will perform. So, I think you guys were lucky and for that, as you said - the tour is only for a year --- I don't think the US fans can complain about the tour. Just that, I think we have to be grateful for the things we get.

- I also want to say that all my friend and I did, we tried to explain the reasons why the concerts in Portugal and Spain were 'canceled'.

- And also about Brazil - Some brazilian fans just want to explain how hard it for for us to go to another country to see Celine. That is not as "easy" for a fan from Europe who can take a train, etc for a cheap price and go to see Celine.

- I just would like that people could understand how frustrating it is to see that your dream is not available for you, once again. I'm not talking about myself, because thank God I'm lucky enough to be able to see Celine many times in Vegas etc. and etc. and etc. But I'm talking for many other fans who won't be able to see their idol.

- I just would like that people could understand the feelings of those people. I'm not saying that insulting is a right thing to do, of course it's not. But I think some members just want to share their sadness. Of course, I can't stand this subject anymore, I'm tired of hearing people only complaining and saying absurd things about Celine, Rene etc. and etc and etc. Of course I know that it is not their fault about not having a date in Brazil, there are many reasons etc. and etc and etc. I guess I never said that.

- Okay, I think I talked too much about this subject ---- maybe because I wanted to -in a way - comfort people who got upset etc maybe because I knew how sad they would be (or were), maybe because I try not only thinking about myself.

- I just want to make it clear. I just would like that people could be have more compaction. I don't know the right word now. Sorry.

- And once again, never it was my intention to offend anyone and I don't think I did.

Thank you very much!!!!!

That was my only opportunity to see her concert in French, and it was hard enough already trying to figure out where the money would come from. :cry:

November 9, 2007 at 02:23 AM

Does anyone know how the presale will work? I just signed up for TeamCeline and it says there is no delay before purchasing tickets. However, when I go to the tickets page I just see a list of dates and links. When I click the link for Philadelphia, I'm prompted for a passcode. I'm tried entering my membership number but that doesn't seem to work.

Thanks in advance!

Well, I usually know how presales work, but unfortunately for me and you (Philadelphia & Portland) they're using ComcasTIX instead of Ticketmaster... and I'm not familiar with ComcasTIX. I've been a TeamCeline member for years, and when I put my passcode into the form on ComcasTIX I get an error too.

November 9, 2007 at 03:17 AM

this was in an e-mail I got:

Once you have joined TeamCeline, login to www.teamceline.com and head to the Concert Dates page. Click on the concert that you want to purchase tickets for. A special code will be automatically given to you that you will simply copy and paste into the appropriate box during the purchase process. You will be automatically re-directed to Ticketmaster.com to enter this code and complete the ticket purchase. Join Now to make sure you have immediate access to all TeamCeline ticket presales as soon as they begin!!

So maybe you'll get the code right as the presale starts???

Otherwise I'm not sure...for the venues where TM is used, I wonder why we can't just do it like we did for AND and used our membership number???

November 9, 2007 at 03:23 AM

I don't think $1100 for Montreal is the price for a normal ticket. Maybe it's some package like the soundcheck one in Euro.

November 9, 2007 at 04:07 AM

Yeah, it's gotta be for something in addition to just the seat...otherwise it doesn't make any sense!

Yeah, the only problem is that when you book a package it just says that you will get a premium seat. It doesn't say which seat. that is not fair.
