Celine Dion's first show of 2017

She's back! Celine Dion's first show of 2017

She's back! With a new hair do and a new dress for first show of 2017. Celine's show elevated the pulse of Las Vegas to the limit with her powerhouse performance last night. For those of you who couldn't personally be there, below are the highlights of the show.

A new year, a new hair do and a new dress

The last 2 weeks on instagram with Celine Dion

On this day two weeks ago, Celine Dion received the Icon award at the Billboard Music Awards held at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. An emotionally charged performance, followed by a surprise by her eldest son, Rene Charles, who presented Celine with the Icon award.

Well deserved award.

Behind the scenes stage preparations.

Another Saturday night rehearsal and sound check... Celine sounds great as usual. I don't get to hear the show from on stage level very often because it sounds much different down understage. Upstairs i can hear everything clearly and sharp while downstairs we get plenty of bass and Celines footsteps dominate the sounds from the stage overhead. Very cool perspective. That big box looking device in the middle of the shot is called 'The Sniffer' there is a sniffer on both sides of the stage and they roll up the giant white sheer curtain called the 'Kabuki' at an incredibly high speed at the start of the show. #celine #celinedion #caesarspalace #theunderhands #stage #earthling7 #show #strip #colosseum #night #stage #photo #stageright #set #band #soundcheck #saturday #color #lights #music #rehearsal #awesome

Celine Dion Show Must Go On

Celine Dion: The Show Must Go On

The show does go on. Céline Dion has resumed her residency show at Caesars Palace with performance dates through until June 4th. She started the week with a 15 hour day of interviews to promote her upcoming tour in Quebec, France and Belgium. This was also the first time she has spoken about the passing of her husband René Angélil.

Yesterday fans were surprised with the unexpected release of a new single, "The Show Must Go On". The song originally recorded by Queen in 1990, was written about the band's lead singer Freddie Mercury, who at the time was dying from HIV/AIDS. Céline's version recording is available for purchase from iTunes, Amazon Digital Music and pretty much everywhere else. For the highest downloadable bit-rate at 320kbps head over to Google Music.

The lyrics of the song are similar to how I imagine Céline may feel about returning to show business after such a deep loss "Inside my heart is breaking, My make-up may be flaking, But my smile still stays on". Her voice has a different tonality, in some ways sounding more edgy and raw, also more delicate, but still as beautiful as always. I do wonder what role René had in the choosing of this song, if any.

I'm no music professional, but I have years of experience listing to Céline, an expert fan if you will! ;) I love the arrangement, the scratchy sound of the guitars compliment the soft orchestral backing. The lead violin accompaniment from Lindsey Stirling adds an extra layer of class to the recording.

Céline will perform her new single "The Show Must Go On" together with Lindsey at the Billboard Music Awards, where she will also be honoured with the Icon Award. The Billboard Music Awards air live Sunday, May 22 at 8 p.m. EDT on ABC and CTV.

What do you think of Céline's new single?


Celine Dion Show 2015

Queen Celine is back May 17th

They called Frank Sinatra the leader of the pack, but Celine Dion is the queen of the Strip and she's back on May 17th! That means that many of you will be coming to Las Vegas to see one of Celine's upcoming shows from now until June 4th. So, are you ready?

Aside from frantic packing and general excitement, if you're flying internationally, please double check you have a valid passport and ESTA or visa.

Colosseum Seating Chart

Celine Dion presales for shows in 2016

Colosseum Seating ChartCeline Dion’s fan club “Team Celine” just announced presales for new Las Vegas show dates later this year. Did that make your heart pound a little faster? Did you panic and start the immediate search for further information and your wallet? That’s usually my reaction, but don’t worry we have some time to formulate a plan to get the best seats.

There are a few options available at this stage, Team Celine membership (which is free) will get you a passcode to gain access to presales right now and/or fan club seats at any time, providing seats are still available. I know, you want to be close to Celine, right? We all want to be sat on the front row but getting those seats is not so easy.

I had a look through most of the dates from September through November 2016, but the best I could find for Price Level 1 in the TC section is in Orch 4 row EE. The Amex presale will get you the row behind. Price Level 2 has seats from around row KK onwards. If you can get an aisle seat in Orch 3 you might even be one of the lucky ones to get a selfie with Celine during the show when she walks through the audience.

There is also an AXS presale which goes live today! This is the one I’m going to try for, last year I was able to get really good seats in Orch 2. Set your “Celine Alarm” as I call it, which is today, 25th February 2016 – 10am PST.

Your password is: AXSCELINE16

The next time to panic and try again is when the public sale starts on Saturday, 27th February 2016 at 10am.

Of course, there are always Ticket Brokers where you can usually buy seats right at the front and also purchase tickets to sold out shows.

Let me know how you get on and please share your tips and experiences.

Good luck!
