[iloveceline22]

hey everyonee!

sorry i didnt post anything yesterday!

my friends slept over and i knocked out without knowing lol

 

 

so obviously i had the time of my lifeeE!!!!!!! it was sooo fun! i was sitting in the front roww! i was soo excitedd!!

at one point celine came over and winked and pointed at me cuz i was crying and blew her a kiss! ahh what a moment!!

 

i loved the fact that there was a technical glich! that meant i got to stay longer and add the finishing touches to the letter i was writing for her!

 

celine gave her best yesterday! she was rocking it out!

 

i was happy to meet more of our forum members

 

...anyway i loved all by myself, when she hit that note...it sent chills down my spine! i finally got to hear that live!

i loved the different vocal riffs she gave to its a mans world! overall the show was awesome!

 

during the show i talked to the security gaurds and asked if i can give my frog and letter to her and they said we promise u stand here and ull be able to give it! they were so nice! i had written so many letters to celine, but had always left it with her crew! finally i was able to hand it straight to her! i was dying of happiness! i was bawling...n while i was handing it to her, she paused and said aww, and gave the face like dont cry...afterwards i started jumping and screaming of happiness, that finally i had given it to her! after all these years, i got the chance!

 

 

the night was awesome!!!

 

here are some pics of the nightt! sorry for the bluriness! my hands were shaking! Lol

 

You met her at Jay Leno too right? Two days of Celine? You lucky girl. Maybe she remembered you and you'll get a response to your letter.

 

 

yuppp actually 3 today at the grammys concert lol....gosh i hope she doess! that would be a miracle for me

to bad these 3 days passed by so fast...i wish i can go back in time and relive those moments!

Love her hairs during EOM!! I'm sad they drop the whole Queen Medley.. WWRY had a bad reaction everny night, by a bad reaction, i mean, no reaction lol

So she can just replace WWRY by We are the champions or just do TSMGO.. That's sad, she can put Unison, WDMHBN or TTWIT instead of nothing

Well, my Celine weekend has ended. 'tear' I was sitting in the 12th row last night at the Staples Center... up a little higher in Anaheim. Both concerts were AMAZING... the two different views were very cool. She sounded great despite the fact that I still felt as though she was kind of recovering from being so sick. I am just thankful she made it and still put her heart and soul into both shows. I admire her drive and dedication so much. It inspires me to achieve my goals! I cried my whole drive home last night though. I always get sad when I leave and know it is going to be a while before I see her again.

 

Last year, the 5th row seat I had for the final show kind of spoiled me. I don't know what could be better... and I miss her Vegas show SOOOOO much. I saw it 7 times and it was so much more intimate. That last night in Vegas was the best and the saddest night! I loved it more than anything but to see her store gone and know she isn't there is sooo sad. I have been fortunate to see her in concert some 13 times now. TV tapings, award shows, 3 times on tour, Vegas. It doesn't matter where, she will always be my favorite and I was so sad to leave. I hung out on the floor of the Staples Center until I felt like I was in the way then slowly walked up the stairs. I cried most of the drive home.

 

The technical difficulty last night was interesting. I would have preferred that not happen and I felt bad for the people who missed seeing stuff on those screens on that one side. I also missed the snow fall around her during How Do I Get You Alone. That was fun in Anaheim.

 

Someday I will meet her. Faith. I don't work too hard at it though. I never get too get there early or win any contests and I am too shy to be up there trying to get her attention. I just hope that my steady attendance to her shows will somehow put me in the right place at the right time. I have FAITH! One of my favorite songs ever!

 

She looked amazing. She sounded perfect. She talked about the same amount at both shows, which I always love! Drag the night on as long as possible! I hope she goes back to Vegas someday. Maybe once I get my teaching degree and will have more money to see the show even more! Ahh I am a crazy fan! lol I love having such an amazing role model to look up to and I am going to keep my head up and listen to her songs as I go through a hard time in my life. She always reminds me that things will get better through her music.

 

THANK YOU CELINE! YOU GIVE ME FAITH IN MYSELF!

 

P.S. I wish there was some way I could go tonight but I am broke! That $20 parking in Anaheim and $25 parking last night were killers! lol

Celine was definetely on fire last night. Again audience participation was incredible.

We also think David Foster's presence made her work it!!!

Also it must have been a thrill for her to see most of her AND Vegas dancers.

 

Here is a picture of some of them with Ramona, just like old times.

 

My fourth anf final California "episode" with Celine until next year

 

Congrats to Elizabeth and Denelle

Seemed like a overall good show and i wonder why she cut out the QUEEN stuff? maybe TSMGO is too much strain on her since she is still recovering from her sickness.

[KimboCosmo]

What a good review, Denelle! I'm sorry you didn't get to give your frog to her...you will get the chance...have hope and faith! It will happen! Glad you had fun other than that!

 

I still wish you could come see me over on the East coast!

[Allie]

[celine_rox]

awesome pics allie

[Allie]

also, I don't know if she has been doing this lately but she went even higher in the high note in River Deep. I don't wanna post the full video because I am dumb and I handed the camera to my dad when I was freaked out and I was yelling at him for not taping Celine () and it's a little embarrassing. But this got a "HOLY s***" out of Emily so I figured I'd post the few seconds with that part in it. I about had a heart attack when she did it: HERE

[whineupemily]

Its definitely AMAZING! :clap:

Who knows how high Celine can ACTUALLY go .. :dance:

WOW! I guess she was testing her voice or something... But that's gotta be one of the highest notes she's ever hit live.

[binsk]

so what celebrities were there?

[Allie]

so what celebrities were there?

 

All I've heard so far was David Foster.

[binsk]

what order did she sing my love, pqtme, and the prayer?

[Rossum89]

Has the audio been posted yet?

[Allie]

I just finished splitting and tagging it (stressful week at school, I've had basically no time to get anything done) and it should be up soon, but I was going to try to upload to the Multimedia section but I've given up in fear of making an #ss out of myself lol

[Terre]

Thank you for the pics, reviews and the short videos! That high note...

[celinemaniac07]

Hey everyone...I recorded the audio of the LA concert..I have the audio and I want to thank allie for helping me with this little project. I could not have done it without you. I would like to post the audio on the forum for everyone to enjoy, but I dont have the slightest idea how to do so..if someone is willing to help me, I can get this audio up for everyone to have...it is the full show..and the audio is very good except for some of the bass that we could not fix. So if someone could help me this audio will go up asap..thank you! James

[celinemaniac07]

Well I am very surprised that only one person has offered any type of help with posting the audio for the LA show..I will not be posting the audio..it doesnt seem like anyone really wants audio of the LA show...no one even replys. Have a good night guys..
