Shania Twain at Caesars' The Colosseum

None??? Really??? Wow, you ARE out of touch! Don't they have radio in Mexico? Or TV? Do you open your eyes and ears ever?

Why would I waste my time on one-hit wonders?

I got beyond caring how many hits a band had when I was about twelve, and starting caring if they were any good.

Sure. But if you don't much care for music and don't pay much attention to the "music scene," you're more likely to hear of bands with a number of hits rather than those with just one.

That video came out right around the time I was going through my separation/divorce after 10 years, so it has special meaning for me. Shania has so many catchy pop tunes with romantic lyrics, and of course she's about as attractive as they get.

I do have to say that I think she is probably one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen.

Shania Twain is a star, of course, but she falls short in my book as far as the headliners at Caesars go. That being said, my book is often wrong, and ticket sales will tell the story. With Celine doing less than 50% of the shows she was booked for earlier in the life of that room, they have a large number of nights to fill. If someone like Shania can come in, do 70 shows a year, and build a reputation as a "great show to see", they'll have made a good investment. If she falls short of that, they'll have at least filled the dates left open by Celine's limited number of performances.

We'll see what happens. Right now this show is not even close to being one I'd like to see at the normal prices. That is just my opinion...

Thankfully that is just your opinion. I can't disagree with you more.
Shania is on par with the greatest entertainers in the world and that is fact.
If Shania falls short as a headliner in Vegas then nobody qualifies then.
Shania is one of the most successful and biggest selling artists of alltime.Shania has had massive successful worldwide tours grossing hundreds of millions of dollars.
Shania can still demand premium ticket prices worldwide for her concerts. Maybe she is too qualified to be a Vegas headliner.

Seriously I do understand everyone has an opinion but you someone makes a statement like Shania falls short I sure would like to know how she falls short.
She holds the record for biggest female album of alltime. She is the only artist in history with 3 diamond albums in a row. And she is the biggest selling country female of alltime.
Some people may not be fans or may not even know all of her hits worldwide but at least you would think someone would do research before making comments like Shania falls short.

If anything Shania is too qualitfied.
many of Shania's fans are upset she decided to do Vegas instead of another world tour. They think it is beneath her. But Shania didn't want to travel with her son and wanted to stay in one place so this is the next best thing.

I would much rather go to a Shania show than a Celine show. Shania is a better entertainer. Celine may have the stronger vocals but Shania has the better songs and better interaction with fans.

So I am actually upset Shania is doing Vegas. That means she can't go around the world to her millions of fans. And those who can't afford to go to Vegas from other countries will not be able to see her anytime soon.

Well said, Oiler!
