I dont think Celine would do las vegas again, what for? she was there for 5 years , no need to come back this soon. She will go to diferent cities not las vegas .

[celinesounds]

and PQTME in french coutries

[Clio]

The show in Nice is not on a round stage so I guess it's not a mandatory.

I hope she'll do at least one more non-middle-stage show in Europe - I'd love to see one such show as well as so far I only got tickets for those "round" shows...

 

If the MEN in Manchester is a definate venue then i dont know if a concert in the round would be possible (althought it might) because it is long rather than wide which isnt perfect for something in the middle of it.

 

On that point it only fits 14'000 where is she played the City of Manchester Stadium she would get 66'000. I went to see Take That at it and its a perfect venue for her.

 

PLEASE COME BACK TO GLASGOW OR EDINBURGH CELINNNNNEEEEEEE

 

 

 

You can go to Manchester or London as they're very close to GLASGOW OR EDINBURGH and I don't think Celine is necessary to go to GLASGOW OR EDINBURGH

[nature boy]

They can do concerts in the round at Manchesters MEN arena.

[nico robin]

i just want her to come to MEXICO why

[Clio]

Barbra seems to compete with Celine's world tour

 

 

According to Barbra Streisand's promoter of her latest tour in 2000, Barbra will ignore Australia in her next year's tour and head to New Zealand instead 'coz she wants to avoid clashes with Celine's 2008 world tour in Australia.

 

 

 

What does this sentence mean? "On her Timeless tour in 2000 she was slammed by critics for using an autocue to remember stage banter between songs"

Another reason Céline might have skipped Wembley:

 

"Wembley charges bands £10,000 a minute they go over their agreed end time of the show. "

[kathy4]

i would like to see celine but i will wait to see if any us dates are released.

[CSCfan]

No I believe they've chosen O2 because Céline's with AEG/Concerts West.... and they control the O2. Edited September 24, 2007 at 05:30 PM by CSCfan

That means she used a teleprompter that flashed what she was supposed to talk about with the audience between songs - same thing as cue cards, only on a screen - I Guess critics didn't feel uniquely spoken to and didn't like the fact that it was staged. Celine does the same thing on stage - she may not read it from a teleprompter, but she often shares the same stories/anecdotes to her audiences.

[a fan]

Even if I've understood nothing, that looks interestin' anyway. Hope she'll come to Latin America.

[Bellamy]

They mentioned Celine demand $1.2 million USD for a concert. That's the highest for concerts in Taiwan. Beyonce wants $900,000.

You can go to Manchester or London as they're very close to GLASGOW OR EDINBURGH and I don't think Celine is necessary to go to GLASGOW OR EDINBURGH

 

She should though because it is in a different country that all these big artists seem to forget about. It can cost more than £100 to get to these Manchester and London from glasgow (although if you are quick enough you can get cheaper options). Plus they are more than 300 miles away from glasgow, London is much farther. I feel for the fans that cant afford that kind of money especially if it is going to cost £150 per ticket (this is according to london tickets who seem to think they dates and prices they have will be the final word

[babyoscar]

I didn't see this posted, I figure people might be interested in this.

There was an article in the Chinese newspaper few days ago saying Celine is to perform in Taiwan in spring 2008. This is basically what the article said, Celine asks for ~$900,000 and to perform indoor. She was originally scheduled for March 19th, 2008, but it was too close to Taiwan's election time. So right now the events people are talking about April 2008.
