Has anyone here seen her tour in 2008? I'll be seeing her in NY in
Spetember, but would love to hear from fans who have already seen the show.
I read that she was recently scheduled to appear "Live in concert" on a
cable station in Dubai! Did anybody get to record a high quality DVD of the
show? If so, maybe we can trade!
In any case, let's here from fans who have seen this tour!

Saw Celine last night in Birmingham UK at the NIA.

Birmingham City Centre ground to dead stop as 18,000 (eighteen thousand)
people attempt to park near and around the NIA. A total sell out for the
arena

Wonderful.. Please don't ask me for the set list, it just rolled and rolled.
There were the usual expected anthems. As well as loads from the new CD.
For some very odd reason there was a homage to Freddy Mercury where she sung
"We will Rock You" and "The show must go on!" as well as some old Soul
montages (Soul Man, etc). A small amount of audience participation

Loads of set changes and some incredible dancers. The set was set in the
round, as it was at Wembley when she last played the UK, some 9 years ago
and set in a + shape. As you would expect the sound quality was wonderful.

It was noticeable though the she only played to 3 quarters of the arena and
at time ignored what was seen to be the back of the arena (the left hand leg
of the + symbol). We were sat no more than 80 ft away and got some great
photo shots. If you are interested I'll post these

Hope this helps.

Steve

I hope you enjoy the show in NY. It's not that long to wait now. I've also
seen quite a lot of videos popping up in YouTube from the tour if you've not
seen these yet

all the best and enjoy the show

Steve
