thanx. i watched the video for the first time yesterday, and by the end of it was already able to follow the chorus moves. the choreography is as catchy as the song. believe me, if i start practising it before paris, i'll be doing those moves automatically in paris when/if he plays or performs the song, and as they should be kept secret til amsterdam, that's not good. i also keep doing some of the biotg moves at the gigs, just can't help it. so one week in advance has to be enough for me to learn the KA moves.

thanx! so parisians aren't happy? why's that? no wonder i didn't get that joke. oh dear, i'll be so damn lost at the paris gig! gonna have to bother everyone around me "what did he say? what does that mean? what are you laughing about? ..." like the blind guy who kept bothering violet_sky in stuttgart. nah, won't. will film it and then ask mfcers to translate it for me afterwards.

huh, where did he say that? seems like i missed another interview... :rolls_eyes: superhero theme!

dr john's magic chicken maybe?

well y'know it's the wonderland, this phoenix character is just invisible all the time, that's why no one knows it exists. we don't know yet whether he'll perform it. i asked him, he said he doesn't know yet. so at least it isn't a "no". though the queuing memories of 2 weeks ago were much better than 2007! and the concert memories too - and for you i'm sure especially the aftershow memories.

i think the very first one was gitte haenning, a german artist which my mum used to like back then. no idea how old i was, mayb 8? the first one i chose to visit myself was david hasselhoff, when i was 12 or 13. i looooved knight rider back then! and he even had the car K.I.T.T. on stage for the last song - i liked his performance, but the car was the highlight of the concert for me. next concert after that was new kids on the block, and then many many more followed. edit: just discovered that gitte isn't german but danish. she sings in german though.

which one, the phoenix? wait, let me find a pic... here:

if i learn it now, i'll have forgotten it again til may. hmm, if sasje is the mouse, i could be the cat - i actually have a white cat mask. just wouldn't know what else to wear as a cat... or is there a phoenix in alice by any chance? (haven't worn that costume for quite a while... ). no? ok, can we please do a harry potter theme for another gig at some point then?

yay, advertising for the movie on the website of munich's biggest cinema! http://www.mathaeser.de/filmpalast/

asked graciosa, and uploaded the video, here you go, lollipop and kick ass from stuttgart:

hmm, might be a flower after all instead of a playing card, if so many are doing playing cards! or the unicorn? whatever, i'll just decide 1-2 weeks in advance and see what's still available til then. can't do something big anyway, as i'm going to the venue directly from the train - so it has to be something i can do on the train or while queuing.

i'll ask graciosa, as of course i don't wanna upload her video on my account without her consent.

my train arrives some time between 9 and 10, no idea bout hotel yet or whether i'll travel to luxemburg in the night after the show - but i guess the earliest i might be at the venue is around 10:30-ish. if i go to the hotel first, i guess it'll be more around 1-ish too. no idea how long the travel times to the venue are. have to figure that all out once i know whether i'll stay in amsterdam during the night or not.

didn't we already stop giving out numbers around 3 pm, because we had already reached no. 60? it was all much earlier there than in the other cities, because the concert started much earlier... btw, something else, in the toyboy video, can someone pls translate to me what he says in french? some of the stuff he says in english too, i get that, but there's something about parisian which he doesn't translate. the doll is parisian? why? and then he says he himself was parisian too, and adds parisian/lebanese, do i get that right? i just don't get the joke about the doll being parisian.

i know. and no problem, i have to thank you for the funny captions! that's what the pix are there for, not for collecting dust in some corner with nobody looking at them.

poor john. be nice to him, he was such a sweetie for us in basel! well, on the whole tour really!

:lmao: looking crazy as dr john.

so you've found my pix, huh? i somehow had a feeling that you'd use this one for a caption, LOL! - love it!

think it's rather the lack of smoke than the lighting... the pix always look so grey-ish because of that damn smoke machine!

from basel: david fooling around while mika was signing autographs... he was pressing his nose against the car window first, unfortunately i didn't catch that, but his laugh afterwards is nice too!

from basel:

and some more: i like the effect in this pic somehow, how everything around him is kinda blurry & soft, just mika himself is focused. those m+g pix are just esp. this one, love his smile! john's face here, lol! reminds me of that one mika pic that wonka often uses for her captions!

my basel pix are up (uploaded them on photobucket this time, so a click on a photo will take you to the photobucket album...): http://www.mikafanclub.de/bilder-basel.php some of my faves:
