Showcase your Celine Collection

[alvick53]

Alvick, i go to the sound check too and it seems that VIP tickets owners have a specific store with specific items that are not available in the main store. Well that's what was mentioned on the Event travel website. I don't know if we would have enough time between sound check hospitality and concert.

 

Yeah, the 'Sans Attendre' room that they mentioned. I don't know if there will be enough time either but hopefully I'll find a way so I don't have to carry everything through the concert with me.

 

how did you guys get to go to soundcheck? - thats pretty cool

 

It was part of the Carre Or ticket package that I bought through Event Travel. The package also includes: VIP entrance use; going to the 'Sans Attendre' room for a pre-show hospitality recption; Crowd-free merhcandise shopping; Exclusive gift items; Collectible laminate; and onsite event management staff to help us get around.

I went to a record fair in Barcelona this afternoon and found three things for my collection:

 

The French version of the TC World Tour album, a Carrefour magazine with a D'Elles interview, and the 7" vinyl for "C'est Pour Vivre". Funny that it all seems to come from the same collection, as it's black with pink enhancements.

Luis already posted great pics of this, but I was so excited when I got mine that I climbed l'Arc de Triomphe and showed it to the world!

Really nice Alex! I bought that one too this weekend at Fnac in Paris!

Well, I'm finally back from a 4-day-weekend in Paris and here's all the Céline material I could get during this short time there:

 

· Céline Dion key-ring

 

· My ticket for the Grévin Museum

 

· A Grévin Museum pamphlet I found at my hotel!

 

· The gorgeous tour program

 

· I saw a promo poster for the new album on Fnac, so I asked to the shop assistant if they had more in store and could give me one, but she said she wasn't allowed to give them away. Instead, she gave me this promo card I have to say she was extremely kind.

[Celine Fan 77]

... more material LOL

 

· Really nice Céline Dion coin that I bought as a souvenir while leaving the Grévin Museum

 

· The gorgeous poster they were selling at the show. It's surprisingly big, I better find a good place for it soon!

 

· I couldn't resist and I bought 'La Collection' during my visit to Fnac. I love how all these albums and the DVD look on the card sleeve format

 

· And finally, the item that made all of this possible: My ticket to see Céline Dion live on the night of Sunday, December 1st. It was definitely one of the best nights of my life, and an amazing way to put an end to one of the coolest days I've had in recent months, all thanks to my great friends John and Fahd!

Great Job! What fnac store did you go to? I want to see if I can get one of those promo cards, too.

[LuisMa]

Your additions are amazing, Carlitos! Glad you had an amazing time!!!!

I went to the one that's close to the Arc du Triomphe, can't remember the exact name of the street.

I assure to you, this past Sunday was one of the greatest days of my life!

I believe you, Carlitos.

 

Is that the one in the main avenue that leads to Arc de Triomphe, Champs Elysées?

I'm very excited to share this item with you all. It almost ended in complete disappointment, but I am happy to finally have THE LAST REMAINING COPY of the official Sony UK outdoor display poster for LMBTL!

 

I first saw this poster in Leeds in my local shopping centre, and noticed that the display was owned by Clear Channel, so I emailed them to see if they give away posters to the public once they no longer need them. I wasn't expecting to get a reply, but fortunately my email had been passed on to a lovely employee, who told me it's not something they normally do, but seeing as I was such a big Celine fan he would contact the record company to ask if he could send me a copy. A week later, he had been approved - and told me that a poster would be sent to me from one of their depots. Unfortunately, after 3 weeks of waiting, nothing had arrived! I was very upset and accepted that it wasn't going to happen. I emailed him again explaining the situation (I really didn't want to bother him!), and again he was lovely, and investigated what happened to the poster. Then yesterday he said they had located the very last copy at their depot in Bristol, and it had been sent to me. Today, it had arrived! I was so relieved, it's absolutely beautiful, a huge poster (probably around 4' by 6'). I am so grateful that he took my request seriously and went the extra mile even though he had no obligation to do so!

oh HELLO breakaway!!! thank you central london! im gonna go back tomorrow however as i just thought i may as well get one of the really cheap promos and switch the case coz this as you can see has a massive sticker on it haha.

[Hilda]

but can i just say though that this is my first time hearing the radio version and they have slightly...although im thinking more than slightly butchered it...maybe my favourite part of the whole song where she sings the second 'body down....i pretend to be asleep' is just gone and the wholllee last bit 'but on the other side 'ofeeeyesterday' other best bit is gone.... and more as well from the second verse chopped out - devastating.

[Hilda]

[Hilda]

Interesting how it says: "Release date: 30/12/2013"

[Hilda]

i know its like....nothing is ever released that week - and either way its really late...but i dont understand why it even has a release date seen as it could chart right now if there was promo....people can just download it from itunes.

Exactly, as far as I'm concerned this single was released on December 2nd, as this was when it was announced by CelineDion.com and when it was "Record of the Week" on Radio 2.

[Hilda]

yep - maybe we should email this joe and ask what the hell is going on? haha oh and wheres the video ....(standard) Edited December 8, 2013 at 10:28 PM by Hilda

So I went to the boutique at Caesar's while in Vegas last week. Below is what I bought.

I don't usually buy frames like these but I really liked it. They also had a matching mug but earlier in the trip I had purchased the black and red one which was on sale.

[LuisMa]

I got the vinyl for Délivre Moi on the mail today.
