  7. Here a review about yesterday's party.(I don't count that as a GIG! It was just an awesome Houseparty (120 guests from who the biggest part were MFCers) with a great live-band. The only spectacular thing about the trip was, that when my train just crossed the France border, a huge Mikaposter came in sight. Too badly, I can't tell exactly what they were advertising for, at least they used the album's cover as background. At 11:15 Mariposa and I arrived at Le Comedy Club, being number 10 and 11. That location had a big advance: there weren't any connections between the rooms, for so to speak, roomchanging or something, so the band had to cross us everytime. Mika also came out for 2/3 times (only for a really short time though) In the mean time, there was a confusion about who was or wasn't on the list and where, because it seemed that there were differend lists from differend sides. And somehow, no one seemed to remember my name. But Jonathan arranged it very well and was very cooperative with all the fans. Later, when we went inside, ca. 20 people were in front of us, even when we were 10 and 11. One of them wasn't even on any list, but Jonathan just did as he crossed something on his list, and let her in. From there, really a great compliment to the arranger, it really was a FANevent. Well.. during queing, a lot of rumours went around about the creation of the room and about the garderobe and camerause. Finally, we had to give EVERYTHING off in the garderobe, but the securities weren't that strickt. The room really was magnificent, it just looked like a livingroom, even with chandeliers and all... Really just stylish. Mika also said at the beginning of the gig, that it would look like his own livingroom. With the rest of his speaking I had unfortunately the problem that Mika spoke french mostly and I can't deal with that language at all. It wouldn't be such a big problem, because I placed myself behind Mariposa to explain some questions or something, but sadly the arranger had some idea's of his own to harmonise the room. So the people were rearranged by colour, age, gender and hight. (great, and for that I was queing for 8 hours!) and then I was just too far away from Mariposa and Jonny and was all on my own in the big French world. So I just did what all the others were doing, laughing when they did, just to stay unnoticed. At the end I was placed more in the center of the stage and were 2 rows placed between us, but not that way that we were further back, but more pressed to one another. In the beginning it really was so that I couldn't take my hands out of my pockets. Mika's dressingroom was just across the room at the next floor, and we could see through the window how he was watching us. He was really stalking us. Another thing that was pretty embarrassing whas that he sang the french version of Grace Kelly, so I couldn’t sing along. I guess that Mika’s first attention was to play the same setlist as in Baden-Baden, but he must have noticed that all that jumping around wasn’t that good, so he decided to do a small acoustic gig with a lot of improvisation. (BUT STILL AWESOME!!) and he played a bit more as was planned, just because the crowd was so enthousiastic. I never was at a Mikagig where the atmosphere was just as great was as here, amazing! The stage could best be seen as the one in (Bayern3 gig) Munich, only a bit higher and in total a bit bigger, but not so well set. Martin f.e. was sitting behind some speakers and couldn’t been seen for a few people because of that. But the stagepicture, what is standard for that club, I guess, was perfect for that location. What was great too, that he brought Ida and iMMA both. Ida is such a perfectionist! Great! But she has a little tick, she twitches with her left eye, everytime Mika doesn’t hit a perfect tone (just look at that) and that happens, well… just as we all know actually, not really rarely. Nevertheless I have to say, it was the most beautiful Happy Ending that I’ve ever heard/seen, really, really beautiful. Just can’t describe it. In his improvisation he sadly dropped Lollipop. But further he shined (not in the right order) with: Grace Kelly (French) Stuck in the Middle (oh, how I love the live-versions) Love Today Big Girl Blame it on the Girls Lady Jane Happy Ending Blue Eyes Billy Brown (a version I didn’t hear before, but really great) Rain We are Golden Relax (almost the indentic version as in Sadler’s Wells, I mean, no piano, but therefor slowly escalating, starting with snapping. These version is also worth to see) When he introduced his band, Cherisse became so much applause, really not normal, she got more than the whole band and Mika together, it was just so nice how much she liked it, she also got up and walked at the front of the stage and Mika acted like a prima donna. It really wasn’t a gig, but a party! Occasionally two strange types (I guess they were comics from the club) came on and did something funny in French. I just tried not to attract attention. Sometime they kidnapped Mika and.. and.. and… *yawn* The whole thing will be broadcasted on Orange ?Music? TV. Meanwhile there is a thought about broadcast it on another channel too and very allegedly the gig will be set free to download for the people who were there. After the gig, I was mostly waiting for Ida, because I didn’t count on it that Mika would come out with his injured foot and because Ida was simply great this evening. Another thing that was really fascinating was that everyone just run off to the band when they came out, but when Ida came out, no one was interested, and when I asked her for her autograph she became really emotional. That was really beautiful. Because the only thing I have without an autograph, was the Parc de Princes DVD, so I gave her that and she told me that no one ever asked her for her autograph, only when she just walked along and then without giving feedback or something and that she just thought that was so nice and she didn’t know how and where to sign on the DVD. I told her that she could sign it where and how she ever wanted and if she felt like it, she could cross out Mika. Then I thanked her especially for my all times favorite song (Happy Ending) and forgot to ask for a picture AGAIN! I always just remember that when the people are already gone. But it was really nice to talk to the other voice from my absolute favorite song finally, that already saved my night. I didn’t want to have a Mikaautograph anymore. Mika just came out for 3 min. or so. I guess it was because of the flashes from thousands of cameras. In stead of making arrangements for taking pictures or something. Therefor he didn’t get to the end of the queue, but okay, I already had my Ida autograph <3
  8. I'm pretty sure that they planned to do Lollipop, because they extra put out the garbishbins and also a lollipoptambourine.

  15. Well.. here is finally our story (Sasjes and mine) about our weekend..(because we know you all are curious about that too) we both wrote it, so it will be in 2 colours... Friday: 9:25 Sasje arrives She was the first person coming out (I really wounder how she made that) -big hug- We went to my car and drove to Munich. 11:00 Lunch We were at the noblest restaurant ever – McDonalds. After Lunch I changed my clothes (Yeah ready for Mika ) 11:40 Parking We were just 50 metres away from Zenith and still 7 hours to dooring. So we talked a little bit to get to know each other a bit better 14:25 Zenith – Entrance We met a very „polite“ security woman. Her charme was overwelming and she answered very friendly our question where we should start the queue. (Actually she didn’t…. But we did it right… ) 16:15 More and more people behind us… (How does everybody know who Leator is?) There were about 20 people from MFC.com and MFC.de 18:30 Mika’s camera guy „Richard“ started to interview mellody and some members of MFC.com 19:00 Dooring … or not? Some technical problems brought a delay about 30 minutes. 19:30 We stood there about 5 hours and now it’s time to RUN (not allowed ) All the MFC-ers were in the first three rows. We stood in the 3rd row right in front of the stage. 20:20 At first Yelle came to play and it was all very loud so Leator had to use his earplugs very early already. To be honest: Wo both didn’t like her but that’s just a taste of music… 21:20 MIKA came on!!! We were very excited and danced and sang along with all his songs ( not all… he added some new songs and Leator didn’t know them at all ) Well we felt like he watched us sometimes (especially during introducing one of his new songs…) AFTER SHOW PROGRAM Leator bought a Dogdy Holiday poster, a Mika-rosette and a keycord. After that we went outside to wait for MIKA and after more than 10 hours standing we get a chance to sit on a pipe… However after a while a real polite security woman had done her job and told us we gotta go. Sasje and I wanted to go home but she worn a coat which she got from mellody because she was freezing! So we brought it back to mellody’s car and had to bring back mellody’s key - lucky us! Now Mika was standing outside and was giving signatures! He wasn’t really talking though to save his voice cause you could notice he was getting sick. While I was asking him for a signature he recognized me and we had that nice conversation: Mellody: “This is the MFC couple. I gave you a letter from Leator in Frankfurt” MIKA: “Really?” Mellody:” Yes, I gave you a letter from Leator in Frankfurt…” MIKA: “Oh yeah… “(To us) “I remember… I read your fax, erm mail… You’re getting married?!?” BOTH (Getting married?!?!?!?!?) Leator: “No” MIKA:” Ah… yeah… right. It was the regards for her! But I can’t do that because it’s a code for the technic. So I can’t send regards otherwise the technic will change the sound. But I saw you both dancing… Nice… Yeah and I saw your orange earplugs!” Leator: “It was terribly loud” MIKA:”Yes, it was… So I wish you a nice time…” Sasje asked MIKA to give her a signature on her selfmade Life-In-A-Cartoon-Motion-bag. [Link isn’t able at the moment, will be posted later though, so keep an eye on it] After that signature he told us he really had to go… And so we both ( not MIKA and me…) walked to my car and drove half way home and took a little sleep. A few hours later we drove home but what happened there has nothing to do with the MIKA-gig Saturday-evening Sasje got her first Long Island Iced Tea and yeah now she’s understanding why that’s my favourite drink…. And well she got her first Shisha. However three Shishas and two LIITs later we went home… She wasn’t really drunk… she was just temporary unable to walk a straight line… Sunday Sasje had a little headache (Well it’s almost 1 o’clock and she has still headache…. ) While we are sitting here at the airport and writing this text I was eating something and it was on a tray where was written on: “Take it easy”. We thought that they forgot “Relax” so Sasje was so kind to add that for them. When she started to write that “Love Today” started to play at the radio.
