Mika Mad

 

Good job you are not his defence lawyer

That's not a bad excuse really.

-well it was the best he could manage. Maybe he was jet-lagged after the long flight down from Newcastle

..............or maybe it was because he didn't see me drive over the Severn bridge

..................ok, so it is looking a bit lame, I was only trying to help!

Noooooooooo!!?! Tell me that's a joke!!

 

Unfortunately not!

But in his defence, I met him in Bristol to fly to Italy, so he thought that he'd been to Wales!

is the travelodge you're talking near the venue? what about the prices?

Hi.

I've just booked a room at The Travelodge Dublin City Centre, Rathmines and it was 39 Euros for a double room. I'm hoping that it's the nearest one to the venue. There are a few other travelodges in Dublin, but this one looked the closest on the map. I have never been to Dublin though, so please don't take my word for it, I may be wrong!

(if you try booking the night before the gig, it's V.expensive because it's Valentine's day)

Fab isn't it Rose!?? At last! I don't need to get him that map of the South West now, just one of Wales maybe

Can you get one for Freddie too please! I had a text from him earlier saying that Mika is playing Wales, I thought that he had some inside info on a Cardiff gig, so I rang him up and it turns out he thought that Bristol is in Wales!

(as if anyone from Sunderland, Scotland would know!)

Yep it's pretty central!

Thank you! I'm off to book the Travelodge right now then...........

This may sound like a stupid question, but is the venue the Olympia Theatre that is near the city centre? I don't want to book the wrong Travelodge!

I feel a roadtrip coming on!!!

With a break, before I go completely nuts in Bristol!

I'll be there to keep an eye on you in Bristol Rose!

Bristol:woot_jump:....................and about blinking time!

Bristol!!!!!

I'm so happy that at last he's playing somewhere that I can drive home from!

(it's a pity that he still hasn't been to Wales, but I'll let him off if he's doing Bristol)

I just can't vote. I've looked at this thread several times, but I just can't make up my mind! I could give a different answer every day of the week -today is Rain, so maybe I should vote for that now that I've posted.............

I have the same feeling! Tho he reminds me a bit of ryan gosling as well (actor)

I think that he looks like a grown-up Draco Malfoy from Harry Potter!

awww.. we had a good time, despite everything, didn't we ?

 

it's the ones you emailed me in past, right?

 

 

 

off bed, everyone. another long day tomorrow.

Yes, it was good despite the unmentionable!

They are the photos that I emailed you. -They still make me smile now.

Night night Avoca,

Of course not, but at least with seats, you can have a rest in the middle.

Hi Sarah! Christine was telling me about an Adele gig they went to, where they turned up about 6pm had wine and canapes in the foyer, went inside to large comfy seats, and were out to go to dinner by 9pm ! Now that sounds really civilised!

Blimey, I'm going to have to see if I can get into Adele!!!

(I think I must be getting old)

hello, there

Hi there Avoca!

I was thinking of you only yesterday because I'm finally getting around to having the best of my digital photos printed.

It's taking me ages because I have 9 years worth to sort through, but yesterday I was looking at the Big Chill photos. There are a few good ones there!

Sigh. It's great to be young and fit.

We've had two years of your kind of gig.

Time for my kind of gig.

Hi Babs!

I'm young (hmmm ok, not that young!) and fit, but I'm liking the sound of a Babs-style gig.......... Comfy seats, bar with waiter service, personal meeting with Mika afterwards.................

Just be patient and someone will probably list one on Ebay.

I had to get a version 4 one for my son back in the summer (he lost his original one). I looked several times and found one after a few weeks.

Good luck!

I hope that you do read this thread, Mika.

We all had a wonderful time on Saturday night. It was your fantastic music that brought us all together in the first place, but now we have some amazingly special friendships too. This is no ordinary fan club, it has developed into something very special (I now have MFC friends who understand me better than my own family do)

The champagne was a lovely and totally unexpected gesture. The fact that you were actually on the phone while we were there caused a lot of excitement!

You probably haven't read the bit in the party thread where Kath said that a member of staff called her over and said "I wanna talk to you". -A very fitting phrase!

Thank you for everything, the music, the friends, the champagne and the fun,

MM

Ohh theres an idea ... Freddies warm up thread / weather thread .. niceee

 

Hiya

I've always thought of you as a kind of warm-up act for Mika anyway Freddie (in the nicest possible way, of course!)

You keep us all happy and entertained when the man himself isn't around, which let's face it, is most of the time!

..............but a big hug is nice too!

Its youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

 

<HUGSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS>

 

Yeh we so need it!

............that warmed me up nicely!

Hi freddie:thumb_yello:

Blimey, there's a weather thread!!

I'm obsessed with the weather, so I can't believe that I haven't seen this before. I may have to venture out of the oldlings more often!

<passes tea>

 

Awww this brings back memories ! , the bar was the gathering place at one time , Sasje has gone away and now its just full of memories

 

<play it again sam>

 

....................I'm just a ghost, passing through.................

The tiredness had finally got to me.

It's been lovely tonight, I must try and get on here more often!

Night night everyone,

Sweet Dreams:mf_lustslow:

Bordering? I bet.

 

My memory is not good, but I have really clear snapshot memories of all my Mika experiences. Clear as day

 

And I had mixed feelings about the MFC. I didn't know whether I wanted to be involved closely in or out. I'm IN wholeheartedly now.

That was the day that I really found out what a great bunch of people the MFCers are. I had never met up with anyone from the internet before and thought that it was dodgy thing to do, but after dragging my poor husband along for moral support, I then abandoned him and never looked back!

(I think that he was relieved that I had the courage to go it alone after that)

Yes, quite tall. And slim! And, my, don't you look happy?

...........and that was before the gig.

(I think that I may have been bordering on the hysterical afterwards!)
