Blue Eyes

WOW Sivan !! Your amazing video has just made me fall totally-head-over-heels in love with Lady Jane. I feel all melty (and it's got nothing to do with the temperature in the UK at the moment ) Thank you for sharing x

Nor me - I just go on the hunt for new pics... *ahem* ... If I didn't delve into the 'report' threads I might miss little gems such as this one - thanks Dani... hubada hubada

...Isn't it... and bless you Ruth - you even managed to save your husband 4p, very thoughtful

Yeah, but that's 'cos you're special

Arghhh, preferential treatment for Paris again? Surely not...

Awww, thank you! Yep, my lovely hubby thought it was time I had a new siggy

Still awaiting the points for my pre-ordered EP/Book and for buying Sadler's Wells tks. It sounds like we were supposed to get points with the EP/Book bought at Sadler's Wells AND I thought there should have been points earned for buying the Limited Edition poster too. Does anyone else know about this?. If and when this shambles gets sorted out how are we supposed to prove that we bought these items at the gig... or have we just lost out on those points?

I don't know if these have already been posted, but the new album is available to pre-order on both PLAY.Com and HMV's websites... Release date September 21:woot_jump:... or more probably 'top of the week' ! http://www.play.com/Music/CD/4-/6791579/New-Album-TBA/Product.html http://hmv.com/hmvweb/displayProductDetails.do?ctx=280;-1;-1;-1;-1&sku=995464

The competition rules sound 'simples' !!! That's a really nice gesture Laurel Good luck all

Thanks for all the nice comments - but it's hubby Kev to thank - not me! He knows I'd have been giving him if he hadn't so kindly scanned these in today lol I love the fact that MIKA is 'unique', it makes him all the more interesting. Echoing you guys, the interview was totally enthralling and of course LOVING these new pics. The contents list of the magazine made me smile "Mika Penniman lives in a world of his own" Bless !!

Just to keep things tidy here are all of the links for the whole article and the scans are slightly better quality than the ones I posted earlier...enjoy http://www.boomspeed.com/julesnkev/Obs_Cover.jpg http://www.boomspeed.com/julesnkev/Obs_Pages1and2.jpg http://www.boomspeed.com/julesnkev/Obs_Page3.jpg http://www.boomspeed.com/julesnkev/Obs_Page4.jpg http://www.boomspeed.com/julesnkev/Obs_Page5.jpg http://www.boomspeed.com/julesnkev/Obs_Page6.jpg http://www.boomspeed.com/julesnkev/Obs_Page7.jpg http://www.boomspeed.com/julesnkev/Obs_Page8.jpg

WOW - that must have been a truly amazing experience for you Aurelien ! AWESOME stuff - Well Done !!

I must say, he looks mighty fine in that turquoise jumper / sweater... The OCD part of me is stressed about that paint everywhere though (especially in his hair lol ) Loved the video - looking forward to seeing the article tomorrow!

Tia - it was lovely to meet you and your sweet daughter (hope we didn't scare her too much?!). Yep balloon got back all safe and sound - and the recepient LOVED it ! Was lovely to meet you too Neiobi - your 'frock' was gorgeous. And *waves* to Tauruslady n Shaza! - glad we found each other lol !! Deb - it was an absolute delight and a pleasure to meet you - and Kev said he's glad to have been of service You made a list of MFC'ers names - that is so me The lovely lady between us was Bettasan ! Thanks everyone for the wonderful reports / videos / photos. Liliana - your photos are AWESOME - thank you for sharing!

It was great to meet you. Soooo happy that you FINALLY got to meet MIKA !! Your reports are awesome, bless ya. How long will you be on cloud 9 ?!! That was very funny Who said that? Was it me LOL ! I did post some but they aren't that great

Tee hee - you didn't get my forum name right either... but don't worry - people are always confusing Blue Sky and myself Hubby is 'Jesterkevin' and it was great to meet you - thanks for your report. Big thanks for everyone else's reports / vids / pics - it's always interesting to hear different viewpoints and peoples experiences, wish we could re-live it all... sigh

WOW what a wonderful day - what a wonderful gig ! Firstly as we didn't have to spend hours queuing we sat in the stage door cafe for a while (did anyone else have a 'regular' cappuccino? It was more like an eggcup sized drink lol) We were very fortunate to meet the legendary Es Devlin and had a chat before she went back to organising the stage. She is such a nice lady - much respect for her and I felt very... I was gutted that I wasn't in possession of the book at that moment - it would have been great to have her sign it. Went off to have a bite to eat and not long after arriving back at the venue finally got to meet Deb who was just a lovely and genuine a I knew she would be. Met loads of old and new friends - real feel good atmosphere - what a great bunch the MFC'ers are. It was bliss having seats, but still being able to have a 'bop' too AND having the space to do it without being elbowed in the back !! Had brill seats too - thank you to our 'musical chairs' friend So on to the songs... Loved Lonely Alcoholic, Blue Eyes... well ok, I loved every minute! It amazes me that I still get goosebumps when I hear the old ones though - guess that's a result of not experiencing a live MIKA gig for 16 months, sigh... MIKA was lapping up all the adoration, and our reward was an absolutely amazingly entertaining evening! Roll on September / Winter (must start saving now!). Will echo what Kev said about the M&G, and I know I'm a little selfish but would have loved the opportunity to have had a chat with MIKA. Oh well, who knows what the future will bring... Oh, and special thanks to Daz for keeping up entertained before and after the show! (Hope you've recovered from your near death experience x) Just a few photos - sorry they aren't great. Gave up in the end and just enjoyed the show without worrying about getting the 'right' shot! Enjoy... "How much more chewing gum have I gotta chew?!"

Sorry for delayed response but had dodgy signal at stage door ! Were watching rehearsals on a plasma screen it's gonna be an AWESOME evening !

Met the legendary Es Devlin - what a lovely lady

Good morning Deb Sorry you got a rude awakening this morning We're hoping to be in London early afternoon - looking forward to meeting you and all the other lovely MFC'ers later... SQUEEEEEEE !! ...Just a little bit EXCITED

She cancelled Hope you didn't mind me correcting You've done a brilliant job - can't wait to see MIKA's reaction
