| - In the summer, wifee & I were in Lake Tahoe at the same time Soundgarden were playing. We went, she suffered, I enjoyed and tonight was payback. Celine Dion at The Colosseum.
There is no Celine on my iPod, there will never be Celine on my iPod. Celine? Not for me.
The Colosseum is a magniificent venue, I believe that Caesars should use it for much more than the rotation of superstars they have on the payroll. Many artists and their fans would enjoy a night at the legendary Caesars Palace. Seating is comfortable, there is not a bad view in the house, the acoustics are very good and there are huge video screens that seem a part of all today's shows. You're welcome Caesars.
So Celine? The show is very good, she obviously has a large catalogue of her hits, but she also throws in some Michael Jackson numbers. ( She learned to speak English ONLY after watching MJ! ) . There is a James Bond medley, she cries after singing a French song. It's all very dramatic. I saw a woman in the lobby with some Celine lyrics tattooed on her back!!!' That's a fan.
She is skinny and beautiful and with the exception ( IMHO ) of a big shouldered MJ jacket, every costume was beautiful and quite obviously NOT from TJ Maxx.
She doesn't dance around as much as her last residency show but there are cute videos of her kids, a prior world tour and she engages the audience very naturally. A true pro.
She is one of the all-time great female vocalists and whether you love or you're indifferent to Celine, the show is extremely entertaining, is very popular and is a cast iron certainty to keep the lady in your life happy. Happy wife, happy life. ( Corny but a rule to live by....)
