  2. Hi, I've got 2 spare tickets to Compiegne. These are the tickets to the place right in front of the stage. Please pm me if interested. Cheers!
  3. I just got back to London and I'm knackered.. But I've been waiting for three years for a gig in Poland so a report is a must. First of all, a funny story. I arrived at Heathrow on Saturday, checked the number of my gate, went to the lounge, sat down and, to my amazement, noticed MIKA sitting on the opposite seat. I immediately decided to act cool, which of course proved impossible as I have the exact opposite of what they call poker face.. I knew that Mama P noticed my facial expressions, changing from blank to uncontrollable grin, so I said hi and talked very briefly to them so that they knew I wasn't a total creep. I then went to my queue and was soon approached by Mama P who asked if I wanted to join M on stage the next day. My answer was thank you but no, as having fun in the first row was my definite priority. But I think it was really lovely of her to ask And now, about the show. It was a very different gig for me from all the others I went to over the last 3 years. First of all, it was stressful. We planned something special, we wanted to make Warsaw Golden.. We prepared 1400 pieces of golden foil to give out to people. I was terrified it would turn into an epic fail, so that was my worry number one. We did distribute them, people seemed ok with the idea, but seeing as MIKA was just one of the acts, and not even the main one, I just couldn't know if people would actually participate. Apart from golden foil, we brought along lots of exploding confetti. We wanted to use them all together, all of us in the first row. Or two rows actually, the audience was split in two. Will they work? Will we do it in the right moment? Will M notice? They are very loud, will we not get into trouble with the the security guys? Worry number three - there was a meet and greet planned for a very limited number of people. You could win passes in a few competitions run by the festival, a big Polish radio station and a tv station. Living in London, it was next to impossible for me to take part in those competitions. And not taking part in them made it rather difficult to win.. Despite that, I couldn't imagine not meeting MIKA in Poland and I was hoping for a miracle. I know now that waiting for miracles is also very stressful. So it is with great joy that I say that it all worked out perfectly. Warsaw was Golden. The number of people participating surpassed my expectations entirely. We thought of the idea two weeks before the gig. Kam, Iwa and I were sitting in my flat in Ldn and thinking about what we can do to make the gig special. And then it hit me - Golden Foil! I cannot possibly describe how it felt to turn around and see the amazing result of that one late night conversation. It was really touching. I lived in Warsaw for 4 years, it is a very special place for me, and knowing we made it Golden for one day.. It just means a lot to me. Also, we later spoke to festival's photographer who started asking us about that whole golden foil thing. He said it looked amazing, showed us photos he took, and said that people from the tv station that organized the festival were very impressed. It makes it that more meaningful as we wrote to them to ask if they were willing to help us in any way, and they said no. It is nice to know we managed anyway and the result was not too shabby. The confetti thing went so smoothly too. It was perfect. When Mika saw the first ones he started laughing in the middle of the song.. We didn't synchronize perfectly, as some of them proved harder to work than the others, but that actually turned out for the best, as they were HUGE, 8 meters high, so one or two was enough for a wall of confetti to appear. And we had 25 of those So you could see confetti bursting every now and then during the whole We Are Golden, with the last cloud of confetti, opened by Kam, landing exactly over MIKA. He kept smiling, it was just perfect. I'm also very glad because at one point I started chatting with a girl working for the festival. I told her that I flew from London and that I'm there to see MIKA. Well, that WE are all there to see MIKA, we completely took over the first rows I also mentioned that I wish I could meet MIKA, having waited for that gig for so long. She then told me that "she'll see what she can do". She came back after some time and told me she made a few calls and managed to add me to the list of winners going to the meet and greet. Needless to say, I was over the moon to hear that. And she was so lovely, when we arrived to the m&g after the gig, she started looking for me to make sure I was there The meet and greet was lovely. MIKA didn't have a lot of time so they divided us in a few groups of 5 to speed things up. The 5 of us, from Polish mfc, were the last ones to talk to MIKA. It was very relaxed, M was all smiles, and I loved how he told Andy, you can see that in the video posted a few pages back, that he was watching him during the gig and that he obviously had a great time. It was a first MIKA gig for Andy, first time he met him, so I imagine it must have been a nice thing to hear MIKA took more than enough time to talk to us, we gave him our gifts, which was mentioned earlier. I'm going to sound immodest but those were really nice gifts and he liked them a lot We couldn't use our cameras but there was an official photographer there and he took a group photo of us as well as taking photos while we were talking, so they should be quite nice. As that show was the very first MIKA gig for a lot of Polish fans, I so wish M could meet the rest of us.. But he did have an early flight the next day so that was impossible. However, I'm sure it will be easier to arrange when he comes to Poland next time. And, judging by yesterday's show, I have no doubt that it will happen sooner than later. All in all, it's been the most wonderful day, definitely worth waiting for
  4. I love KA and I'm showing it to everyone I know of course. A friend told me yesterday that it reminded her a lot of this song: I didn't know this one but 'we are young, we are strong'.. It is a bit similar I guess.
