Mirtilla

I didn't make it up, I just copied/pasted:blink:

Sure! just as I did 2 yrs ago with the venues-moving:roftl:

http://www.rtl.it/musica/interviste.php?m_id=1&sm_id=0&param=214 radio RTL 102.5 h. 15.00 (italy time) http://www.rtl.it/player/player_video.php to watch live on stream I just got this newsletter: It started by introducing the new single, album etc (we all know that) but the it says: If it's true: OMG! I haven't seen it posted, but I may be wrong so if it already exists feel free to delete mods.

Haha, yeah! In Milano (well, not really in Milano, it's more like 15mins from home:biggrin2:) there's a Warner multiplex but I'm not sure they will show the gig.. Not even with air conditioned and very very comfy seats? Yeah, it's true, why would you think the opposite?

Apparently those Warner Village multiplex across Italy will show Mika's gig at Parc Des Prince on 14th July, which is next Tuesday, look: http://www.warnervillage.it/concerti_rock.aspx Big screen, proper speakers..I'm speechless really

Why are you shocked?

I have no other word than EFFICIENT. Blue Sky, you're brilliant!!

Sou?? omg, you're back!!!! So cool the internship you're doing, sounds great!! I guess Caz already did the job by updating you with the latest news so..WELCOME BAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!

Exactly! I was giggling like an idiot all the time:naughty:

After the show, the theatre guys told us to get out cause Mika would exit the other way (as if it was such a secret!), and when we exit there was a huge line waiting for the autographs and stuff. Crazyness. He came out not long after, like half an hour (?) later. People are crazy. When he was at almost the end of the queue (we're talking about 200 people), those who already got their moment moved back to get something else, someone almost jumped on him and someone even pushed him. I'm speechless and disgusted in front of such rudeness:sneaky2: Anyway it was a great night, at least for me. Said goodnight to those leaving and with Betta, Matt, Robi (+ son), Allegra and Nerys went for a chat and an ice cream:cheerful_h4h: I just hope to live thru all this soon. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Setlist (in order): Grace Kelly Lady Jane Stuck in the Middle Blue Eyes Toy Boy Billy Brown Good Gone Girl Over My Shoulder Big Girl Love Today Blame It on the Girls, Blame It on the Boys <band introduction> Happy Ending (trash can dance + I Want You Back intro) Lollipop My Interpretation Rain Relax VIDEOS: PICS:

Love the new intro of Big Girl with Dan and Mika making that kind of Thriller dance, awesome!! He was in a great shape, dancing and singing over the piano, stepping from quiet tunes to the "crazy" ones. SO glad to hear once more Over My Shoulder, with Alexander this time: that guy is incredible (I would love if he'll go on tour with him again), and the song so touching. At Lollipop (I think) at a certain point he gestured the crowd to join him on stage and you could see the pure frenzy:naughty:. He then went off, and when he came back I decided to stop recording and to enjoy the show: he sang My Interpretation and then introduced Rain:wub2: First time I heard it live, so I started recording again:teehee:. Wonderful. Then I think they bowed and went off again, and the crowd called "MIKA" back again, and he returned for an encore, singin Relax, half acoustic half normal, saying that it was only the second time he sang it and everytime was an experiment. And then it was over. So, this is pretty much it. I was overwhelmed the whole time, I couldn't believe it.

Second. I joined the other MFCers in the queue before 11am and was #19, which was great considering each row of the venue was made of 28 seats! It was so good to see all those familiar faces again, and finally meet the new ones (Mana you're a doll ), I sincerely hope to see you all again very soon!! So, queued a while, waiting for the others to join us and then had lunch all together in a cafeteria few metres from the venue. Came back queuing, chatting here and there. Then at about 6,15pm we were told to queue in order by our number and at 7pm we would get to the ticket desk to get our own tickets and enter the venue. Once inside I managed to reach exactly the seat I wanted (well, second to the first row:naughty:): perfectly central on second row. Nerys got to sit next to me, and I was glad since she was her first gig:thumb_yello: Blue Roses was nice, very good singer, just what it needed to get the atmosphere for an acoustic gig. Then Mika. He got on stage with his band, a very diva entrance, let me say it:naughty: After a year without seeing him, it felt almost surreal having him on stage just a few steps from me..surreal. Btw, they all bowed and he sat at his piano and started..Grace Kelly. I thought he would have started with something more quiet like Lady Jane but, apparently he warmed the crowd with something everybody knew, and it immediately got into a fair:naughty:, with everybody singin and all. Then came the turn of Lady, Jane, Stuck in the Middle, etc... and we all knew the lyrics, everybody was singing (and screaming non sense:bash:). Acoustic tour? I don't think so:roftl: The best imo was Toy Boy: I'm completely in love with that song, and his performance of it and his facial expressions were priceless!! (Jemma, Babs: your laughing ended up in my videos! ROTFL) Love, love it!!

Only 7 pages?? I expected tons more, where's everybody?? I'm writing my reports while sorting out all my videos (filmed the whole concert despite the "no photo, no video allowed" ad ). First of all, let me virtually build a statue to Robi, who sorted everything great with the queue thing and the tech stuff: if we manage to get a collaboration with John in every country like Robi did for Milano yesterday, things will work out great! So Robi, THANK YOU!

Il foresti fructus latitans ha sempre ragione.

That would be nice:biggrin2: About the ECOPASS thing: does it work on saturdays and sundays as well? I thought it was for weekly days (Mon-Fri) only..

..and ice lollies?

I'm neither of them but you're right: I would avoid Central Station as much as possible, especially in the evening. Last saturday it was 29°C.

ciao cicci! straziante.

Ciao Mari!

non ho un dizionario brianzolo-toscano qui al momento: mi illumini? si un po' nervosetta lo sono..:blush-anim-cl:sai quando dai i tuoi contatti a qualcuno che al minimo prurito al piede te lo dice? ecco.

..e ti pare che quella strega appena arrivo se ne va. Poi che nessuno mi venga a dire che non sono mai online: non c'è mai una fava di nessuno!!

La Roby viene + tardi, bella fresca come una rosa a portarci granite e rinfresco x noi povere mortali:teehee:

I'm leaving the lyrics discussion to you native english speakers:naughty:, just let me say how much I love this song! genuinely love it:wub2: I'm very curious on what the Italian New Yorker accent sounds like:naughty: That's what I thought at first, too. Lonely Alcoholic and Lady Jane sound very different from BE.
