Cheerfuljane Posted December 1, 2007 at 08:56 PM Author Posted December 1, 2007 at 08:56 PM I bought them on 19 November.They hadn't been on sale for long. According to South African press: This venue was added due to "popular demand" Which, of course, doesn't make sense coz the other venues aren't sold out.I think Rene just wanted to go gambling We don't have scalpers in South Africa so what you see "sold" is ACTUALLY sold Sales have picked up drastically since the release of Taking ChancesThe single is getting a lot of air play.

Gonna see her live on the 16th of February, the first concert of the Taking Chances world tour! Yay! My 16 year-old sister is upset that she's being dragged along to a Celine concert though. *sigh* Anyway, just needed to let my excitement out...sorry if its off topic. I just hope she doesn't lip-synch the whole concert Quote

dlh1 Posted January 8, 2008 at 03:53 AM Posted January 8, 2008 at 03:53 AM 2 questions? Are any of the South Africa show sold out yet. I noticed shes doing big stadiums there so I will be surprised if they sell out.also...Are we allowed to take cameras/recording equipment into the shows? I know you couldnt in Vegas, but could in 1999 world tour. Does anyone know? Quote
Cheerfuljane Posted January 8, 2008 at 11:10 AM Author Posted January 8, 2008 at 11:10 AM (edited) OK Bellamy I'll even take a picture of the loo for you The stadiums are not sold out. The sales have done well though. It's just the higher areas in the stands that still have plenty seats available in the stadiums. Only the first concert is sold out on the 14th. The Cape Town shows are close to being sold out. The tickets say the usual about no audio recording devices and cameras blah blah blah...South African stadiums are really strict about that stuff. 5 weeks and 2 days left Edited January 8, 2008 at 11:13 AM by Cheerfuljane Quote
Duchess Posted January 8, 2008 at 09:04 PM Posted January 8, 2008 at 09:04 PM believe me you will not get any recording equipment through. they search your bags and your body with security equipment. if you have any camera or video recording article they take it away, it's that simple.i'm relying on jane to organise some micro camera equipment when she comes back from the UK lol.

Are tickets selling? I'm just wondering... lolThe venues for Johannesburg have very low capacity which is why they've broken up this leg into so many dates. The Montecasino venue (which is the one added for March 1) only has 1900 seats. The gala event on Valentine's Day is also of a very low capacity. Quote
