Michael

I wouldn't worry - I'm sure the announce of another tour is imminent. The record company will want to capitalise on Mika's success and I'm sure Mika himself will want to ensure all his fans can get to see him.

Play.com usually send pre-release CDs out on the Thursday before release, as they estimate that it takes 5 days to deliver (so would arrive on monday in theory) - in practice though they usually only take a few days and arrive on the Saturday before release. That's happened quite a few times for me with play.com.

D'oh, just saw this 4 hours too late. Don't suppose there's any tickets left? Although I'm meant to be seeing Love Song that night anyway and I've got HMV. I'm just being greedy!

There might not be a barrier for Academy 2 - it depends on the artist. When I saw Jem there, there was no barrier, but there was when I saw the Go! Team. It's a pretty nice venue, if not as intimate as academy 3.

woops, sorry! Shall we turn this into a discussion about what songs we would like to be singles off the album then?

Anyone know what Mika's next single would be? I reckon either a "rerelease" of Relax or My Interpretation - anyone know what it'll actually be? Or what does everyone else want?

Thanks - I might just make it. It's annoying as it means my friends are wanting to get there early to get to the front, but at least one of us will have to wait for me if I don't arrive in time as they have the tickets. Oh well, I guess we'll see how it pans out!

Anyone know what time doors open for this? I'm busy up until 5.30 in London that day so I'll be pushing it to make it to Brighton for doors open :S.

There's a chance they might release a few more tickets nearer the time, so I'd keep checking. They do this with most gigs and I've got tickets for sold out shows this way. Or there's a chance the venue might be upgraded, as a couple have on this tour. I'm sure Mika will be announcing another tour soon though!

How I'd love to go to this. Unfortunatley that day I've got 4 lectures and 2 tutorials which I really can't miss. Oh well - I can cope with just going to the signings!

Just checked out Leon Jean-Marie and wasn't too impressed by Scratch, but I'm loving Make It Right. Really cannot wait the Brigthon gig now!

I have quite eclectic taste in music- which many of my friends take as crap, lol. Some of my all time favourites are: Scissor Sisters Sugababes Zero 7/Sia Imogen Heap/Frou Frou The Go! Team Basement Jaxx Alanis Morissette KT Tunstall Beverley Knight Rufus Wainwright Avril Lavigne The Killers The Grates Laura Veirs Kelly Clarkson Moloko/Roisin Murphy Damien Rice Death Cab For Cutie Emiliana Torrini The Gossip Hot Chip Jason Mraz Joan As Police Woman Michelle Branch/The Wreckers Dragonette Nelly Furtado There's loads more though, but they're the biggies!

The voice processing was interesting! It certainly did sound like he was miming, but it was obvious that he wasn't. Interesting! It really whet my appetite for next week!

I'm going! Can't wait - will be my first time seeing Mika live. Can't believe it's free as well! (well if you get there before a certain time).

He likes Belleville Rendez-Vous? That's one of my favourite films ever! I could actually see Mika doing a good cover of of the theme - it's quite Mika-ish! Might have to suggest it to him if I make it to one of the signings.

Can't wait for these - both are logistically a bit tricky for me but hopefully I'll be able to make them both. On the 5th I'm seeing Love Song with a friend, so that doesn't start 7.45pm, but I guess we'll have to try and be quick to make it from HMV to the theatre!

Thanks for that - I thought it was Kitty Daisy & Lewis for all the dates - will check Leon Jean-Marie out.
