What does Leena Petal do again exactly? I think I have asked this question in the past, but I can't remember what it is that she does. Is it Pilates?

 

This is great. I'm glad to read that even though Celine looks healthy, she is also keeping healthy because that is very important. Especially as you get older. Not saying that Celine is old or anything. I just think it's important for people of any age and shape to stay healthy. It also helps with stress to. It helps get rid of those bad toxins in your body that stress can bring.

 

We have been talking about Rene's health this past year or so, but It's not just about Rene's health. We want Celine to be healthy aswell, so I'm glad she's taking the steps to stay healthy and strong for herself and her family. I think working with Leena will put Celine in a good mindset for the show.

 

It makes me feel good that she is taking care of herself and not just trying to please others needs, because stress is not good for anyone know matter how healthy you might feel.

 

Only 9 days everyone! I can really feel the excitement in the air now. It's coming!

[smash]

 

 

Lol good lord above, where do I sign my name?

Me too.......

 

Sharon

[mirage]

Since her "onlineteam" is a bit more up to date i hope they will give us a little sneakpeek these days.

 

I still think there will be 1 new song and 4 "old live" songs like USF songs she hasnt sang for yeaaaaaaars but always been in her 'tour live repetoire"

 

That there will be no new band members other than Scott Price, and maybe 1 new dress.

 

That way I can not get dissapointed with how "new" this show will be hahah

Yes this is true. Many times the caretaker crashes and this sounds like a good outlet for her.

Yep you're right about that. Happened to me. Celine tried to keep working and she got ill and was having to cancel shows. She needs to do whatever she can to prevent this from happening,now she's returning. Not just for the shows but for Rene,the kids and herself. She's a strong woman, and knows what she's got to do or what people she needs to help her. Like doing yoga/pilates etc,vocal doctors.

I admire Celine so much.

9 days - OMG 😄😃😁😆🙆💝

Bloody wish I were going 😢

[stevo]

I would love her to open with LTAL I've decided...everywhere I go, all the places that I've been...skipping the choir though (don't like children)

[ehild]

So....I took some of the pictures from Facebook and thought I'd post them for those who can't access them. Here's some pix floating around Caesar's:

 

 

 

 

 

 

And at the airport:

 

And somewhere in Vegas:

 

It's a Celine invasion!!

Maybe Barnev can do the high pinched backing voices then

As far as I can tell from her site, she does leadership coaching - though the pictures out there on the interweb suggest yoga.

[CelineDionFreak]

What if she did BYLM in this arrangement? Obviously not this short- but this arrangement would be amazing!

[binsk]

She did tweet that she was in Boston earlier working with a VIP client!

[Davey84]

LMBTL HAS to come back to the show! Honestly it's the best song she has recorded in English since her 2000 break!

[mirage]

Speaking about uptempo songs...

 

Just A Little Bit Of Love would be a perfect replacement.

Together with Unison!

 

They both have a amazing beat from start to end.

A lot of her uptempo songs are still slow, so you just stand there wanting to dance and move but the song wont let you. So you end up with a weird smile on your face trying to dance a bit while all you can do is clap with your hands akward to the 'i wanna dance but its still to slow beat'

[mirage]

LMBTL could come back... With the same crazy beat as on the album because 'live' it was so lame.

Or as a beautiful piano ballad! I hope that Scott and Aldo dare to take some risks.

 

I saw on fb that Phillipe Dunningan is on his way to vegas to rehearse with celine. Who is he? I think I heard that name before

[Xpresso]

It's nice to see the Céline Vegas Invasion... but it would be nice to see different pictures of Céline on those posters. Not the same one everywhere!! I would have picked a few with her face and a few with her legs - full body or just legs

His bio says: Since 2011, he is the principal violinist for Celine Dion in Las Vegas.

He knew what would happen before Jean Seb

Lol, he has been the leader of the string section since the start of the show (he was also part of the "jury" during the auditions).

Oh thanks. I only asked because I know Celine has done Pilates in the past, but I know she has also done Yoga. I wasn't sure if this women trains in both fields. I wonder if Celine still does Pilates?

 

I'm just so happy to know that she is preparing herself mentally, emotionally, and physically for this new show. I was worried that Celine wasn't going to be in a good place when the show started and that she would have to much pressure on her shoulders.

 

I know this won't take away all the pressure, but doing Yoga and staying healthy sure helps. I was feeling sad for Celine, having to come back and perform with everything that's going on, but knowing that she seems to be in a good place makes me feel better about the whole thing.

 

It doesn't change that fact that Rene is still dealing with his health, but atleast everyone seems to be taking the proper steps to stay positive and in a good state of mind. That makes me feel like I can get a little more excited for this new show now!

google is your friend ... I think he is gonna replace Seb, because Philippe Dunnigan is a Quebec violinist. A graduate of the Montreal Music Conservatory.

 

And yes I agree about Loved me back to life; the band sucked all life out of that song by playing their own lame arrangement and esspecially using normal drums instead of the trendy into your face drums that the studio version has! They should try using live sampling to get those drumsounds. Why not do something different. Not all songs can be played with the same instruments.

[celinemaniac07]

So I have heard about all the band members that were let go but one I did not hear anything about is the drummer...is he still with celine or was he let go as well?

[Shamrock_1982]

Yes I think both Dom and Paul are the only original band members left apart from the beautiful voices of course!

[ryba]

I really hope that the new musicians will improve the show, not the opposite

[JCeline85]

Hey guys.. Not sure where to post this but has anyone heard of the app called livestream? Basically it's an app that you can live stream out of.. And I was thinking it'd be cool if someone would maybe be able to live stream the premier? Maybe not necessarily be able to get video but to have a livestream going so those who can't be there can kinda be there too.. Any thoughts?

[nuts2you]

You mean like what Robin L did awhile back,

Someone actually did this for most of the USF concert. Vegas is an entirely different venue....I'd imagine security will be pretty tight. Not sure if this will be possible or not.

There was someone on here who volunteered but I suggested just recording to be safe. Many people are recording the premiere anyway, “audio only", but that's still something. I'm sure well get short videos and pictures from many attendees.

 

I also wouldn't doubt a few photos from TeamCeline..

Agreed. So many of us are going....this will be an epic night for sure.
