When I followed the link it only has the midi file and says piano music coming soon.

20 days to go.

Doesn't Graham Norton clash with Neighbours, my only other (and longer running) obsession?

Isn't it hysterical how wrong you can be when you don't know the real words? I thought it was 'hooker, broken looker, walk away' in Love Today. Which makes sense to me anyway :-)

Bolton (the North West) so it's an easy journey.

Did you see him in the Virgin recording studio in headphones like an alice band that pushed his hair back?

Can I be added to your list.... This is only the second message board I've been on regularly, but this is so big and every thread has so many pages, it's a nightmare finding my way round.

Hi I'm coming to Leeds too and have been writing 23 days on all my e-mails today. But, assuming I don't forget to breathe and die, what if we can't see well? It a venue of over 2000 isn't it? Do you think there will just be 20 or 30 of us being desperate to see him? I want to prepare myself....

Sorry, is he going to be on TV tonight? What time please? Channel 4?

I'm not at all sure about a Meet. I'm bringing my teenage daughter for moral support. I'll be too overcome......

Hi, I'm Ruth and this Mika thing has bowled me over. I'm really old and haven't liked music AT ALL for 30 odd years. But I heard him play on Jools Holland, liked the song, thought it was very different and weird but then forgot about it. Then I heard him in the background on the radio at the dentist, but the dentist was talking so I missed the name of the song and the singer. It wasn't till I was aimlessly flicking through TV chanels abroad that I saw the Grace Kelly video and I realised that it all tied up. So I became, as you all seem to be here, Mika obsessed. I've signed up to YouTube and MySpace so I can get all the videos and news. I'm going to see him in Leeds (The calendar on this site says a different date, but it's the 13th May) That will be the first live band I'll have seen since the early 80's. I think I'll be the oldest there! I've put the cd in my car and listen to it which after years of radio 4 is a real shock to the system. Anyway, Hi to all you other fans.
