thx a lot for the pics! I love 1st. they must be a little out of date :EP release.. ? hehe, beautiful pic of the penniman gang: mr and mrs P must be so proud! it's amazing to see how they have all grown in these almost 3 yrs we have kept track of mika's career... is paloma pregnant by any chance..? so, fortune has finally managed to outgrow his big bro. last time I saw him he already looked VERY tall and I see he's kept up with the remarkable growth. jasmine is still my fave of the penniman 5..

sent in my question (twice by mistake ) thanks for the link

does he ever sleep in between all this..? thanks, deb.

my kids like him a lot, esp. the smaller one. love his artwork, his music and voice o.c. and my girl also his looks, though they agree he's a bit excentric in the way he dresses, but meant in a good way. original most of all. hubby likes his art and music and would be a greater fan than he admits to be if only someone bothered showing up at a gig where we flew the whole family back in 2007 that's a painful story I won't dig up again,but it comes from there. occasionally he spills his admiration though, without admitting it too much. men!

the horror... I, like allegra, am not quite keen on being filmed, but it's nice to have a memory to show to family, who're insisting to see the shows yes, mr M, relax, take it eassyyyy...

Part 3 he came back for 1 encore but we didnt push him to come back as we knew how much in pain he was, he was limping diwn the stage i loved the military jacket he wore i didnt take any pic as usual during gig but many did and i am sure theyll post them soon we waited for him o.c. at the side entrance: he came out not long after but in his van, which didnt stop. he was though waving at us: could see cause hed a shining mobile his hand that he waved about Lol finally i wanna say thx to all mfcers for being their usualadorable selves it was simply GREAT to see you all again even if we didnt talk much a special hug to robertina

Part 2 as i said, we were standing or sitting on stage, next to the cameraman who was often in the way i think the show will air at some point mika sang mostly old songs: relax (which was GREAT to hear again live!!), HE, GK, LT (as encore), SITM , BG from new album he sang rain, WAG, BE and BIOTG thats all i can remembr Lol so it was not just 2 songs i would have loved to hear more from the new album, but i understand this was not a real gig, if you get me, and he preferred to play what mainstream knew best. mind you, it was also a promotional tour, so he could have showed the new songs a little more anyway being close to him on stage was a real treat: the closest ever we got some eye contact end part 2

report on the way home Lol prsonally i was very tired last nite but then i didnt sleep so well past days anyway, it was simply a living room gig, with all it takes: mika 20 cm away from you, standing on stage, some of them literally sitting on it, no bareers, hardly any security, a dream the venue was beautiful, very classy we were let in later than we should, cannot tell when exactly he was on, i didnt check time then he didnt wear braces and also told to audience almost at the end of the gig he also told he was SO much in pain by then nevertheless he danced and sang his heart out loud, so not being wise or careful, but VERY professional as a real showman, he never stopped smiling and though he must have been suffering a lot, he didnt show it at all End of part 1

does it rain there too..?

mr ben whishaw

sitting bored at the laptop. smt boring also on TV

considering his tight schedule, I'd not bet on plenty of rest at the moment for him..

you mean smt arranged? that's nice. I don't know the sweater, or at least I might have seen it but don't recall it now.

that's good to hear. I bet he's tired: this tight schedule must take its toll on him. spoke about tomorrow by any chance..?

oh thats super great!!! weathers been awful today, i felt for all of you

I'm still checking on the trains. I dunno how long it takes to the place from stazione centrale. plus I'd like to stop and get changed at hotel, once I found one, hopefully in the area.. I had thought at first to get changed at the venue, but I'd rather go there without my bag

do we all come at 10pm at the venue or someone meet up somewhere before..? I have to book train. and if I get the train I am hoping I may be slightly early (VERY slightly) so I can get changed in the hotel room.

ok, that's why. I was front row, VERY squeezed

thx

have fun, everyone! so glad these competitions prize MFC'ers more and more often. that's very right. nanou, I just read now you wre in nyon as well.. how come we didn't meet ..?

what's kegs..?

sounds very good but is it open so late at nite..? now need accomodation

it's actually a very good video, giulietta.. I love the bits with the yellow cuddle toy

the fact it's EMA is just a detail.. they have the same winners all over the place, even if it's MTV asia or smt. saves time

ROTFLMAO it's what my son asked!! "did he at least come second..?"
