What site are you using? Ticketmaster looked sold out

If I do this it's truly last minute bonus show where I've lost my mind in actuality lmao, but vacation is getting boring and I need more Celine..... :/ so why not while I'm still in Europe? Def not trying to go over face value so the resale sites have me on the fence.

 

Been low key looking at flights and hotels all morning.... lol.

never beard of a concert being fully sold out. Theres always some single seats here and there because someone would never go to a concert by themselves.

Well, I'm not much of a talk in the forum but I'm surprised by how good celine is playing in these last concerts (Excuse my English vocabulary, I'm Argentine)

 

Points in favor:

 

- The "TPOL" intro sounds amazing. :wub:

 

- Celine did not sing "The Reason" completely live since 1999! And "The Colour Of My Love" since 1994 !! :w00t: :w00t: , and continues to do incredible, despite some imperfections (especially in "The Reason") that are no longer important at his age. Apart it should be noted that it holds almost the same key as the original.

 

- Think Twice and Taking Chances sound even better than the 2008/2009 tour, they are more confident in the high notes, and does not dodge them.

 

- It is the first time that "I Drove All Night" is sung completely live in concert, in the "Taking Chances Tour" and in the shows of Las Vegas used playback in all the song. I must say that I was surprised when she gives the note D5 in the climax of the song, because it does with a full chest and does not use the mixed voice :hmm:

 

- That's The Way It Is and I'm Alive sounds great, and in this last one it keeps the original key !! :clap:

 

- Recovering sounds angelic and people applaud her more than in other songs because of the emotion she conveys.

 

- Refuse to Dance was a great surprise :blush: , it was never sung live and does it majestically, I hope it stays in the setlist and does not eliminate it.

 

- I've never heard "Love is All We Need" before, and I loved how she plays it on this tour, besides Celine enjoys singing it :wub:

 

- I love how good has been sounding "Black And White" and "Love of my life", the last of my favorite band ever, Queen

 

- MHWGO is completely live again since October last year :clap: . I prefer it with imperfections than with the playback of 2011 used in Las Vegas (and used in the billboard) that you can notice a wide difference between the current voice And that of that time.

 

Points Against:

 

- A pity that after the first concert in London has removed LMBTL from the setlist, it sounded great even with a tone down. :wacko:

 

- I prefer 100 times more that dress she used in the second concert (Stockholm) than the white she is wearing in the shows lately (Costume Change # 1)

 

- I have no problem with celine using playback in some songs, it's more I'm in favor of that, but for me BYLM it would have to be sung completely live. :hmm:

 

- "Misled", "THLAL" and "My Love" should have stayed in the setlist and not be cut because they are songs of her and not covers. The first two could replace LCMM and RDMH that lately are not sounding very well. :down:

 

- TSMGO is my favorite song of the whole life, but I notice that lately it is not the same in the way that it has to interpret it, without saying that the high notes are playback now :unsure:

 

In the end it seems an incredible show and the voice of celine is at its best performance considering the last years. I leave you my youtube channel https://www.youtube....w_as=subscriber (Celine Dion Fan) in case you are interested in having a look B)

Yeah it's clear a lot of fans want something but they only talk about it. Time for action I'd say

I've been saying this for a LONG TIME about the dvd WE CAN make it happen but we need enough people and we need to send it to the RIGHT people. I know there are people here with connections. We are all fans we all want common things we should be able to work together and make it happen because I promise you if we keep our mouths shut this will continue to happen. It will happen now and with Vegas and with future tours. SO it's time for us to do SOMETHING. I even tried my best during my meet and greet because I knew how many people WANTED it. A recording of any kind is long overdue! After all we are the people who buy the cds go to the shows and buy the dvds we have to show them there is interest in a recording.

it will never happen so we must face reality and hatd facts and stop wishing and hoping. It never got us anywhere and if Celine really cared about her fans she would do it like Madonna putting out a digital release of summer tour. You have to face reality and hard facts.

Does it matter that one note in TSMGO is playback? Celine's typical mom and pop fan in their 60"s won't know the difference any way.

I just hate the beat-you-over-the-head lyrics. I know subtlety has never been Celine's strong point, but this song is one of the worst offenders, IMHO. Hallmark cards are like Ulysses next to this thing. :giggle: Plus I don't find anything 'emotional' in it whatsoever. It's just all-around bland.

 

I've always found "I'm Alive" to be uplifting. Not every lyric has to be so deep, or contain heavy poetry in order to be emotional or have feeling. Sometimes easy listening does the trick, and this song falls into that category.

Here are my suggestion without preferance orders for French bootleg

 

Encore un soir

a vous

Ma faille

L'etoile

Les yeux au ciel

The Power of love

Show must go on

All by myself

medley:that's the way it is/river deep moutain high/I'm alive/ Because you loved me/ It's all coming back to me now/ Love can move mountain

My heart will go on

The reason

Je sais pas

Terre

Dans un autre monde

Loved me back to life

beauty and the beast/ how does a moment last forever

Black & white

S'il suffisait d'aimer

Pour que tu m'aimes encore

The color of my love

Treat her like a lady

But why the change? Before Rene's death from what I can recall we got almost all her tours. Whether it was on tv special or dvd release. Why can't they do the same now and just do it digitally. I just can't see why it's that hard. How can they say no one wants it. Even if it her last show didn't sell well on dvd it is clear that there is still demand for Celine especially now so who's to say a digital release or even bonus on a cd re-release or damn even just stream it would be a bad thing. Her streaming the first show back in Vegas sure did well numbers wise from what I remember. If I'm correct so did the Paris show. So I can't see what would be so bad in that. I've seen many artists stream their show on facebook or youtube and then put it up on demand afterwards. It won't cost them as much as a physical release and it will keep the fans happy. I seriously can't see why...I don't get her team sometimes

 

For me personally I still believe the least we can do is just try and if it doesn't work atleast we can always say we did everything we could. Otherwise we will always wonder. Just like we regretted not trying last year. That's just my opinion though.

Her team is all technically-challenged people in their 60's and the sooner you accept that the better. They have been with her since age 12 and she won't let them go. :mdr:

I have read the comments here for the last few hours, I'm a bit disappointed in what I've read. I saw the Feb. 23, 2016.show in vegas 6 weeks after Rene's death. That was an honor to be there and she was live. That's a show I'll never for get. I also won't forget. Her voice at that time was very strained due to stress and her emotions. That fact that there are people here complaining about songs she cut from the first English show, that's your problem. I'm more happy the she is singing Her Wedding Song. That to me is amazing. At that show she said that she was going to continue her career for him. So I believe no matter what she can what ever song she wants. All her songs have different meaning for her now. Including color of my love, my love, all the way. Love still exist, and PTQME keep in the last was Rene favorite song besides The show must go on. She could sing the phone book for all I care and still be happy. As far as her clothing, she a 49 year old widow, with three kids, she can dress anyway she wants, I have seen outfits, that were questionable, two she is a very pretty women and she knows that. Also she is not looking nail guy. Like she said she'll grieve Rene the rest of her live. That should be evident, by the last song of this current Tour. Four, she still considers herself married. There is stage celine and off stage celine I have noticed more and more over the past year. There some thing she to be angry about and other things not to stress about. Her song list and other he cloths eh, not so much. Things like the tragedy in Manchester yes, Donald trump yes, Terroism yes, what celine sings or not NO BFD?

This pic taken by my friend at the Leeds show the other night makes me laugh. I'm sure we could think of a good few captions for this one. I mean just look at how Celine is looking at Kaven and his eyes are firmly fixed at her crotch area 😜

What are you implying? I've seen moves like that from her before and what are saying about KEVIN?

I'm all for getting a DVD/BD but NOT at every expense. Not with the results of the "Une seule fois" DVD, having a Celine with a tired, trembling voice and even wandering the stage at some songs because she was clearly bored and so over certain songs.

 

DVD? Yes of course, but they rather film it soon, or they rather have filmed it already during the first shows of the tour. Evidence from past tours shows that the more the tour is advanced, the more her voice suffers and she becomes either tired/bored of performing, so that magic we can clearly appreciate during the first shows of the tour, it soon starts to fade. I don't want that to show on a DVD sorry.

 

So I'm all for getting new releases and like all of us, I think this tour needs to be released on DVD, but not at any cost.

 

Wish the London concerts would have been chosen to be filmed, because her vocals and the energy of the venue was astonishing, perfect for a home video release.

I'd actually prefer a decent audio release of this and the previous tour in stead of a DVD with so many YouTube videos around.

 

And not like her previous live-albums with re-recording vocals or make it sound it was recorded in a studio. I want hear people applauding, screaming and singing in the background. That's probably why I still like and play 'Live à Paris' that much.

 

And with all these new full orchestra arrangements by Scott, songs will probably get a new life too.

Of course I was having a joke about it. It's just where Kaven was looking when the pic was taken.

 

I'm not implying anything, as I truly believe Celine will probably never be with another man. This to me was even more evident after seeing her and the way she still talks about Rene and gets still so emotional 😭

Since there has been some discussion about it, I will just say the outfits of Celine the past year are 80% NO and 20% YES for me. I cannot stand the over-the-top way she chooses to dress nowadays. I prefer simple outfits for her and in general. However, I do admit that what she wears have been well-received by critics and fans alike, and that is - without a question - a great thing for Celine!

This is a nice list :) however I really think that the setlist will be made up of mainly French songs. As in, much fewer English songs than are in this list. I at least really hope so!! She will of course do the biggest English hits, but she has a huge French repertoire which isn't represented in a list like this. Also, I really want her to do Tu sauras. Do you think she will? Or is it unlikely?

Some people will go to concerts by themselves and there's nothing to be ashamed of. There's been a few times where I wanted to see a show and no one else wanted to so I just went by myself. They way I look at it I'm there to see a show not chat with people.

I've gone to most of my shows myself .. been lucky enough to meet some lovely people though.

But surely if you want to see her badly enough then you don't care about that stuff? You don't need confidence to do it - you just go to the show. Well that's the way I see it. You're there just to marvel at her voice, it's not like, say, going to a Rihanna show by yourself. The thought of going to see any other artist or band by myself definitely doesn't appeal, but it's totally different with Celine for me. I mean I don't know if people think everyone's going to be staring at them or something, but nobody batted an eyelid in my case. Nobody I know even remotely likes her, never mind would pay to see her in concert. And when you want to do something badly enough...? It's not like you're going to see those people again and you'll be able to experience the show which is a dream come true!! Also, if I had gone with someone, there's no way I would have stood on a chair during the final encore to see her up close where she actually saw me too. Nor would I have chatted to the guy next to me who had some great stories and was so nice.

I've seen Celine twice by myself and other performers as well. I'm not about to miss something if I can't find a friend to go along. It's actually great as you can take everything in and a lot of times get great close single seats. I met and sat by a lovely lady from Scotland in Vegas one time and we discussed Celine and Rene at length!
