[Dionesque]

I'll be there! So far it seems to be my very first Céline concert ever!!

 

I'm in block 008, row 1, seats 9 and 10.

[mikymika]

j'ai mes places pour anvers rang 35

[Marcc]

I'll be there as well! Block 6, row 7, seat 3! See y'all there!

[Davey84]

I'll be there!! as for the 13th of may!!

[anewdayhascome]

still nobody has received any tickets?

[LD1977]

We will be there as well, block 1, row 6, seats 6, 7, 8 and 9.

 

And no, I did not receive my tickets yet...

[anewdayhascome]

my tickets arrived!!!!

[Dionesque]

So what are your seats for this concert, guys?? Let's share them here so we can greet each other!

I've posted my seats a few messages earlier.

[Davey84]

i'll be in the Loge... hell if I know if that's any good

[Dionesque]

in a loge?! What's that? Don't you have a regular "block, row, seat" description for it??

I guess you've paid quite a bunch for it, eh?

[Bralo20]

Block 10, row 1, seat 1 & 2

[Davey84]

well no... it's the loge! LOL that's the block! hahaha

here you can see them, they are like 'north' where a normal podium would be... We paid 128.50 per ticket.... but I think we're f*****!

 

tomorrow we'll be in the 'middenveld' section though

[Dionesque]

Huh?! Isn't it a wrong seat chart, Davey?! When I booked my tickets for Antwerp, the stage on the plan was exactely in the middle and there were blocks 001-005 and 006-010 "upon" and "under" tha stage and than the 100s blocks left and right from the stage...

 

There are no blocks 005-010 on your seat chart at all so it must be a wrong plan...

[Benji]

that seating chart above is the general seating for the venue.. there will be a specific different seating chart for celine, i took a screengrab when i booked a year ago

On Tuesday, i'll be in block 10

[Dionesque]

Exactely - that's the correct seating chart!

The blocks directly "under" the stage are the blocks 005-001 (from left to right) and the blocks "above" the stage are the blocks 006-010 (from left to right).

 

I'm in block 008 on the 14th and in block 001 in the 16th!

[Edwin]

That's it for now... Have maybe some more pictures but i'm not used to work with a small pocket cam so a lot of pictures are failed. To bad that my Nikon D200 wasn't back from repair, especially with the low security in the Sportpaleis.

 

Well, maybe later

[bonninpili]

OMG!!!! Amazing picks! Thanks!

[Bralo20]

Since I was constanly taking pictures (took about 325 pictures) and typing down the setlist I missed a lot of the show. But hey, the music was great. Hopefully next time my pictures are better

 

I loved the show, I really enjoyed it very much...

 

Dionesque, it was nice to meet you. My appologies for not returning to you after the show but I needed to get back in time. Sorry

[bonninpili]

Your picture are very good quality!!!! thank you so much!!! :clap:

Just got home from the concert. It was amazing! Nice to hear the french songs!

[Ray]

Before Céline went to do her Vegas concerts, I've seen her at least five times live in concert in the Netherlands. (For the first time in May 1995). But I'm sooooooooo glad she's back on tour. I love Madonna, Mariah, Kylie, Janet, Toni, Whitney... and I've seen them all live. But I have to say: Céline maybe the best live artist I've ever seen! She blew me away, again!

 

1) I drove all night (Intro) What a great way to open the show. Loved it!!!

2) I drove all night: It seemed she had borrowed Mariah's dress: short and pink-yet-lavender!

3) J'irai où tu iras: although not one of my favorite songs, she had the crowd right there from the start.

4) The power of love

5) Destin: love this one sooooooo much. Great to hear and see it live!

6) Taking chances

7) Et s'il n'en restait qu'une (je serais celle-là): She got a lot of goodwill here from the crowd. It was very much appreciated!

8) Eyes on me: best show/dance song of the night. WOW!

9) Ziggy: loved this one!

10) Dans un autre monde: sooooo great this one. It's the perfect song for a live rendition!

11) All by myself: definetely one of the highlights. Blew everyone away!

12) I'm alive (remix): had been singing this all day. Great she did this one!

13) Je sais pas: love this one so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing!

14) S'il suffisait d'aimer: unfortunately some people don't appreciate a "quiet" song and started talking. However: most people loved it!

15) Alone: one of my favorites. Loved it!

16) My love (partly accoustic): she did a better version than the one on the cd, but still... maybe the only "boring" moment in the show.

17) Queen Medley (We will rock you / The show must go on): Don't care much for "We will rock you", but "The Show must go on" was so beautiful!

18) Soul Medley (James Brown / Aretha Franklin): It's okay, but I would have prefered one of her own songs.

19) Love can move mountains: Always a great song to end the show with.

 

20) River deep, mountain high: LOVED this one. So much energy. GREAT!

21) My heart will go on: although I've never really liked this song, it was very special with obviously everybody singing along and knowing it by heart.

22) Pour que tu m'aimes encore: A lot of people seemed to be surprised that she did another encore after "My heart will go on". But of course she had everybody singing along with this one as well. LOVED it!

 

One of the best shows I've seen/heard/enjoyed in a very long time! What a voice! What a great entertainer!
