nice to know:
  1. During the concert Céline was surrounded by some ten musicians and assisted by a choir.
  2. About fifty persons have travelled along with Céline from concert to concert, under whom her brother Michel.
  3. On the day of the concert itself roughly thousand people were very busy trying to keep everything under control.
  4. Céline arrived in Brussels by limousine and afterwards she left with her private jet to Copenhagen for her next concert.
  5. To shelter the domain of the stadium they called upon a special panelling that was brought over from the United States.
