| - I was completely blown away by this performance.
Now, I've never been a huge Celine fan. However, when my best friend got two free tickets to a show - do I look stupid? Count me IN! She's a legend. When someone offers to take you to see a legend in concert, you go. And "not a huge fan" means little, because I'm not incredibly into music, anyway (musicals are another story). Nearly every concert I've ever been to has been because someone I wanted to spend time with said, "Hey, do you want to go see....?"
Despite not being the most musical person on the planet, I was able to sing along with nearly every song. Why? Because Celine is that big. I am the perfect age to go to one of her concerts and recognize every hit she's ever had. (Don't worry - I mostly mouth the lyrics. I'm not competing with Celine.)
And she puts on a good show. She's emotional. She talks to the audience. She makes it feel like we're just having this intimate conversation, like she hasn't rehearsed it a million times. It felt natural. It wasn't forced. The sound was incredible (I mean, c'mon... it's Celine), and she had a good mix of songs from her entire career (and some covers).
Oh, and her costumes are amazing. I hope I look half as good as she does when I am her age. Heck, I wish I looked half as good as she does NOW.
I admit, I was a little shell-shocked when I saw the price of the seats, but if you're in Vegas, and you want a good show, Celine will not disappoint. There's a reason that she's a legend.
