OMG! i'd be really surprised if she didn't! poor lucy

My report. it will probably be short foalbaby14 and i got to the venue around 4pm, and we got to hear the band warming up with grace kelly. the door was open so we peeked in and you could see everyone! it was so exciting! then we went across the street to the restaurant to wait for the other MFCers. after a while, everyone started showing up, and that's when it started feeling real for me. time seemed to fly, and before you know it, we were being let in to the theatre. the theatre was very beautiful and old, i love that kind of thing . foalbaby's seat was front row, while mine was 2nd, but in the aisle. being 5'1'', i really hoped that there would be a child or midget in front of me. by the time gary go came on, 5 seats next to her were opened, so i sat in one of them. soon after, the people that were supposed to sit there showed up, so i asked the lady next to foalbaby if i could stand next to her during the show, and she said yes. when Mika came on, everyone ran up to the stage and it was such a rush! after 3 songs, i guess security got worried about the stage, and started pushing everyone back. Mika signaled so many time for us to move up, but every time we did, we were all but pushed back. at one point i saw a man being shoved back, pretty hard. i yelled out "police brutality!":naughty:, later i heard that he was kicked out. for me, the high points (as if there are low ones:wink2:) were "rain", "we are golden", "dr. john", "happy ending", and of course "touches you". i decided to put that songs creepiness aside and love it, about 2 weeks ago, but when i heard it live it was the most wonderful thing i've ever heard! during lollipop when all the balloons came out, i saw the perfect moment to hit a security guard with a balloon, and it was just my luck that it was the one that shoved the guy. before you know it, it's all over and you're being shooed out of the way by security. deb was nice enough to secure some passes for the MFC, to meet Mika afterwards. i don't think anyone had an idea as to how many people also had passes. there must have been close to 100. walking up to our seats, we passed cherise and emma, and said hi. before Mika came out, we were told that he could only do autographs, and nothing more. he must have gone through the 30 of us in about 3 minutes, he was being rushed! when he got up to me, all i could manage was giving him the cd to sign and giving him moraccas. within 2 seconds of finishing, we were already being yelled at to leave. when we got to the lobby, we stopped for a minute to put our coats on, and we got yelled at to leave. absolutely rude! when we got outside, we went around to find the stage door, in hopes to have an extra minute with Mika. it was the same kind of deal. there were probably close to 50 people there, and he was rushed through them in 5 minutes. foalbaby was able to get a hug, but i didn't think of it til after, so i got a hand shake. better that than nothing. over all, it wasn't my best experience. but performance-wise, it was the best. absolutely tops! hmmm... that was quite long!

my eyes have gone bad at least you got to have some kind of conversation with him. by the time he got to us, it was just signing autographs, hardly any talking.

what?! i swear to god i saw you guys put your head together for a picture i honestly think i've lost my mind

Holly, didn't you get a picture with mika? i think i remember that happening

you're welcome

i've also got this one:

those are the best ones. the smoke made them so grainy.

here we go....

i'm going to start uploading them now

no pictures can capture the amazingness of his handlebar mustache!

yes, it was general admission. i was in the front row, and i had no problem. but i know that when Mika comes on, people tend to cram closer together. there was a stage invasion, that gig and i KNOW how squished and pushed people got, especially in the back. i was the second on stage, so i couldn't experience it first hand, but i saw everyone's expressions, and it was scary. even after i got off the stage, and tried to get to my stuff, i had to squeeze through people, cause they wouldn't move an inch! after that show, i was leaving the venue and this rude woman said to me "don't f-ing push me! b-tch!" i was at least 5 ft away from her, and certainly didn't push her. no matter how horrible people in the audience have been, i always manage to have a good time. i could never blame mika, for that.

Mana, I'm glad you feel the same way.

OK. If you've spent $200 dollars on Mika merch, especially DVDs, then surely you should understand what a Mika concert is like. Especially being in the 6th row, you should have expected some kind of comotion. It's kind of unfair to judge Mika's fans by the way SOME people acted in your row. I don't know how your other concerts have been, but it's hard to believe that all of them are sit downs shows. I's sorry you had such a terrible time, but with your ailments, i don't think you should go to such a rowdy show. Next time, please go to a Niel Diamond concert. You might have a better time there. This was my 4th Mika concert. My first one wasn't the best experience, though I had hope for a better show. If I were you, I would hold out for something more. If you were a real Mika fan, you wouldn't be complaining. And as for your "trashy American" comment... Coming from someone that isn't particularly patriotic, I took great offense to that comment, and I'm very glad to see that you see yourself as trashy, too. And please post a link to your blog, i'll be sure to read it.

but you have that perfectly good jacket that went to waste in february
