Mika @ Newcastle Global Café 24 Feb 2007

:Update: Revised venue - Northumbrian University

[andi]

Got my tickets....sssooooo excited! (I don't get out much you see!)
So who else will be there?

[Lorrr]

I'm sooooooooooooooo hoping to be there! me and my friends should hopefully be there! No idea where it is though!!!

[Sunny Monkey]

Hit the "maybe" box then so we know you "might" be there ;) Be quick though as tickets will be sold out shortly. Brighton already is.

[sister jane]

does anyone know if we're allowed to take cameras in?

I'm hoping to take to some to send to my friend in america

[Sunny Monkey]

Yeah normally you can. They cant really stop it as most phones have cameras on anyway so bootlegging etc is bound to happen. Plus bootlegging helps (aka fatboy slim) so they really dont care these days.

Phone ahead and double check tomorrow though and come back and let us know just to be on the safe side :)

I'm sooooooooooooooo hoping to be there! me and my friends should hopefully be there! No idea where it is though!!!

the global cafe is at Newcastle University near the Haymarket. Never been to a gig there before though.

Does anyone know if mika comes out after gigs like SS used to in the early days?

[FREDDIESDOUBLE]

:thumb_yello: The venue is superb! ... When I was a wee student we used to go between sunderland uni and newcastle to see gigs , also there used to be the mayfair in newcastle , a superb live venue , sadly now a nightclub!

[crombiestone]

Hi

Just got my tickets today . Its not sold out BTW . Try http://www.reflexcd.co.uk/tickets-list.asp still showing available !

There is a sticker on the ticket stating Northunbria university stage 2 . Perhaps this is a bigger venue ?

Anyone else know of venue change ?

[Fillip]

Really?
I got mine today and it just says ...N/Castle Uni. Global on ..no sticker :blink:

[guinchogirl]

I just had a quick look around, Mikasounds doesn't mention a venue change but all the ticket sites I just looked at say Mika @ Northumbria University Students Union - Sat 24th February 2007.

Hope that helps?

[FREDDIESDOUBLE]

Hello Hello , I hear its gone to Northumbria now , still similar place and loads of drinking places nearby ! :biggrin2:

[andi]

I got a letter today from the place I bought my tickets and it has indeed moved to Northumbria University Stage 2. i presume this is a larger venue hence why more tickets are available as it was sold out at most agents before:biggrin2:

Be quick though peeps, they won't last long!!!!

[Gothy]

I am a student at Northumbria Uni, but haven't got hold of a ticket as yet as I am away from Newcastle currently - a friend said she was gonna buy me a ticket but I haven't been in touch with her lately so I don't know if she did....

[sister jane]

Chocolate and cheese go together rather well, but it has to be dark chocolate and mature cheddar.
