May 4, 2008 at 05:22 PM

I've played around with the brightness on this picture so you can see Rene better. As I said above he was sitting in front of block 108 about 10 metres away from me! :clap:

Thanks ShuttleDiscovery for the pic. The sounds system seems very complicated :shrug:

May 4, 2008 at 05:29 PM

yeh there was looaaads of middle aged couples type people there but im glad we ddint have some of the 'sit down' horror stories alot of you are reporting! Sounds awful!! but people were standing up by us in block f and LOADS in block A.

I was in Block B on Saturday night and I thought there was going to be a fist fight! Seriously! People, just calm down, its not a Guns N' Roses concert lol. There were these two girls in the 2nd row who insisted on remaining stood up for the whole concert. Fair enough, stand up if you feel like dancing, but not the whole time especially if someone has asked you to sit down because they can't see. Its just polite. Next thing I could see everyone around these 2 girls getting more wound up because they just wouldn't sit down (being very rude about it all) and I thought there was going to be bloodshed. Couldn't believe that they actually started pushing and poking each other!! Anyway.... in the end they were warned by the MEN staff and then shortly after they disappeared - not sure if they were kicked out or they decided to go, I was too busy watching Celine at that point. :doh:

How annoying! Luckily everyone was OK in Block 107 so I was fine, but I felt too nervous to sing along in frnot of all the middle aged couples!! I wanted to jump up and down and sing out loud but I just couldn't!! I still had an amzing time though nevertheless!

May 4, 2008 at 05:36 PM

Tonight I'm sat in Block 103 which is at the end of one of the travelator extensions and will film from there too!

Hey, were you in row 3 as I think I was sitting just in front of you. I sort of recognise your photo!

>>> hahaha. That's so cool !

May 4, 2008 at 05:41 PM

BTW did anyone else see the people leaving after LCMM and RDMH!?

She said goodnight (like she does) and then went under the stage after LCMM and people who obviously didn't know much about her performances thought that was it, so people started leaving (especially in the higher level area). Then she came back on and did RDMH (so people came scrambling back to their seats!) and then she said goodbye everybody again after that song! Even more thought this was really the end so they started to get up when the MHWGO video came on!!

I hope Rene saw this and will sort it out because I can understand how a lot of people thought it was over!

May 4, 2008 at 05:49 PM

Shame if they missed some of the show! The only people I saw leaving was Maman and RC during the intro to MHWGO, these guys with torches started doing stuff in the aisles and we thought someone must have fallen or needed to be out in the dark and couldn't see, but then they stepped out and headed past us for the exit. Hardly anyone seemed to recognise them though! Edited May 4, 2008 at 05:49 PM by Thomas

Can you please send me the link to the Manchester bootleg? I can't find it anywhere...Thanks

May 4, 2008 at 05:57 PM

Quick question!?

Are there Celine t-shirts available on the merchandise counter?

Me and my brother really hope so and want to get some in London!!

May 4, 2008 at 06:01 PM

yeh it was hillarious how many middle aged people there was there! sooo amazing tho!

Hey, don't be cheeky about us wrinklies......I was young when I first started following her!!! :msn-wink:

May 4, 2008 at 06:03 PM

this attachment is the best i can do,you can make out rene charles,and celines mum and sister just about,it was taken as they were being seated before the show,last night.

May 4, 2008 at 06:03 PM

Ermm, well I guess I'm middle-aged. I'm definitely married, but BORING?! No way, so stop generalising.

I didn't go to Manchester but I shall be in Birmingham (STANDING and DANCING, in a middle-aged kind of way!). Plus it says on my tickets "People around you may stand!". Well, I'll be one of them

I've said it before but it's worth repeating - a big thank you for all the reviews, pictures and videos Can't wait for May 10th

Believe me, our middle-aged Wendy will rock the house in Birmingham, many of you youngsters can learn a lesson from her! :clap:

I do agree that everyone should be allowed to sing and dance, but there are songs that ask for silence and sitting down, like My Love. I would be very upset if someone keeps standing in front of me or keeps talking during this song. And let's keep in mind that there are people that are not able to stand all night (one of my friends for example, she had a terrible car-accident and she can't stand for more than 5 minutes). Those people do have a right to ask others to sit down, because otherwise they are not able to see the show. But apart from that, I would say: live and let live. I think Céline enjoys a dancing stadium much more than a boring stadium with people sitting down like they are watching a classical concert. :confused:

May 4, 2008 at 06:07 PM

Oh, and I still can't get used to the white cape... :hmm:

I think it would be better if her cape looked like the one the dancers have, black and white. Besides that I still think the matador-outfit (red pants) really suit the song so much better.

May 4, 2008 at 06:08 PM

I thought a lot of fans around me were very disrespectful during the introduction to My Love last night. As she was telling us about it having such an important meaning for her and being like a prayer for her, people were shouting stuff and whistling and screaming and it just sounded really bad and out of place. Like you say, there's a time and place for stuff like this so I thought it was a bit rude to just keep screaming over her when she was trying to introduce an important song.

May 4, 2008 at 06:15 PM

May 4, 2008 at 06:16 PM

My policy is simple: stand during up-tempo songs and sit during ballads.

May 4, 2008 at 06:17 PM

i bought 2 tickets for the O2 in london, and i accepted the first tickets i was offered as i didnt want to run the risk of gettin worse ones. i got block 115, which would normally be the back of the stage.....

is she fair to the WHOLE arena, or does the "normal front" get more?? row F cant be too bad, i got them for my dad for xmas, and he cried lol........and i thought, sh*t, he will be cryin if we can only see her back all night...woops....

my dads 45, and if he thinks hes sittin there all night like its an opera show, he can get stuffed. ill stand on my chair and swing my trousers over my head if i have to get my section off there asses.

That's exactly what I mean... Shouting during for instance 'We will rock you', sure! But you have to know when it's appropriate and when it's not. I would be really annoyed when people next to me shout and scream silly things during My Love. Specially since this song has such a big meaning for her and she TELLS about that, so everyone knows it. I want to be able to hear and feel her emotions, I don't want to hear my neighbours' misplaced emotions. :confused:

Now after seeing the one which replaced it - that horrible black thingy with glittery things glued on it - I must say I really liked the white pyjama. Coz it was freakily wierd it got cool - the new one is just freaky and taseless.

I didn't complain aout that white pyjama curtain lace thing! I simply said I wasn't sure what I thought about it. :glare:

Watch it Miragie, or I'll put a golden ribbon on you with "special edition" written all over it... ask that guy... what's his name fantasticfabolou or something, he knows of what I speak... :shifty:

Yes, with the stage in the centre she is fair to everyone. Well she has to be really as whatever side you're on you still all pay the same price. However, apart from the two piers left and right, I did think she spent a little more time facing my side of the arena last night (the side with Blocks 106 - 111). Does anyone else agree?

May 4, 2008 at 06:27 PM

celine leaving her hotel,blowing us a kiss yesterday!!

May 4, 2008 at 06:31 PM

and the i spose would be the "front" of the arena...........as appose to my seats....at the back!! its abit agrivating. i think the round stage is pants,,,,why not always be facing the front on a normal stage??

May 4, 2008 at 06:31 PM

and finally.... me and celine on friday night!! excuse the quality as it is a photo taken off a photo,if you will.(its on my frinds camera,and i took a pic off her digital screen)
