Savage Beauty

Oooooh, getting all excited now

I think it's fascinating how many people here say "I don't thing it's true and I don't care... obviously they care enough to have an opinion

And no, I'm not being cheeky, I just like to tease ya...

though that does make me kinda cheeky doesn't it?

Ah, driver :D Can't belive I turned the offer down

Take that were amazing!! I was only supposed to stay for one show, but we decided to change our flights and stayed for one more

Sooooo, my report has taken some time due to the fact that I haven't been home after the concert, but here it goes:

I'd been looking forward to this concert over a year now, was pwoper gutted when I didn't get to see him last time he was in Norway (due to tv-channel's mock up), so this time, NOTHING was going to stop me, not even the need to travel to Denmark at 4AM the same night

I wasn't sure how early I needed to go there to get a good spot, so throughout the day I kept floating about the place, checking out the number of people waiting there, and eventually, just after 5pm I decided to go there for good and met up with Kath and Norway and Bellatrix and the other girls, and they were so so nice! had a wicked time in the queue, and quickly realised I had put on waaaayyyy too many clothes, so I had to pop off to the closest pub and do some stripping

The one name that sticks after those hours in the queue is RICHARD!!! I had never even heard of him before, and to be honest, I was fed up with him before even meeting him, which was a bit unfair to him I feel *tihi*

At last they let us in and we rushed off to check our coats and jackets, and then queued again inside before they let us into the arena itself, and I managed to grab the spot between Kath and Bellatrix, which was about half a meter from the stage to the left of me, and half a meter from the stage in front of me *dies*

Then Richard-Andy-Raoul-Mikey-Bob-Mark-Spencer-Bruce came out and interviewed us and chatted to us quite a bit.. though I might have been a bit too cheeky asking him who on earth he was

Then Yelle came on which I REALLY loved, they were sort of a French version of a Norwegian band, Surferosa, which I love, so I had a great time listening to them, and then, the big moment arrived, MIKA!!!

A beautiful opening of the show, theatrical and nice, and then to the screams of 1700 people, Mika came out on stage and bounced about the place from the very beginning. During the first 2 songs you could hear that his throat was sore and he coughed a bit after Relax, but then he seemed to forget all about the discomfort and seem to genuinly enjoy himself on stage.

He repeated what I had said to Richard during the interview (god I hope that's not where he got his facts from) and told us that norway was the country that had warmed the most to him and where he had the best sales figures and that he felt guilty for not coming back sooner.

and he spoke loads of norwegian. I know some of this has been posted before, but I don't know if the whole speach was there? here it is from my spot in the audience at least:

There was of course the stage divings, the balloons which he kicked in our faces, the confetti which ended up both in my shirt and in my stomach (choking on confetti is not recommendable), and I've got Mika sweat on my hand and dribble in my hair (that's how close to the stage we were), and it was just a brilliant brilliant show.

And then it was the case of the boa which ended up in my hands after mika danced with it I still find feathers and confetti everywhere in my purses and apartment and clothes

So, after the show we went outside and I spent most of the time waiting for mika chatting with the... what was he, tour manager? any of you girls know? anyway, I was waiting my Norway to give me a lift home but she had not yet told her husband, so when the bloke working with Mika heard that, he said "Well if they don't give you a lift home, then we will".

DAMN you Norway for having a nice husband

And then Mika came out and though I had told the bloke I didn't want an autograph I changed my mind seeing as I had been waiting in the freezing cold for so long and felt I deserved something in return so I change my mind.. and though he mocked me for it, I decided to get the autograph and the hug. I told Mika "don't take so long to come back next time, alright?" and he grinned and promised he'd come back a lot sooner next time. then I got a nice long hug and when he had to go, he turned back to me and said "you take care of yourself now!" and "have a good night!" and then he smiled and left for the bus, and I went home for a couple of hours before taking a taxi back to Oslo S where I met the girls again for a few minutes before heading for Denmark and Take That.

He promised not to wait so long to come back, so you might get a second chance

Laods of pictures (and a review in Norwegian) on this page Here .

You can see Kath and a few of us others on some of the pix too )

Yehh, and he shoved Cherice in too

I'm so jealous... Where? When? At some back door or something? Next time I'm not leaving so soon...

 

 

 

I really need it now. I could have met him! I'm totally clueless!

Ah, well... It was a great show!

Just around the corner where the buses were parked.

Waited there for an hour since my lift wanted his autograph. Wasn't planning on getting it myself since I don't really do autographs, but then changed my mind at the last minute, which the tourmanager of course found hilarious, as I had already told him I didn't want it

I just reckon- I'd been stood there for an hour in the freezing cold, I well deserved something in return! And I'd probably regret it if I didn't do it.

BRAZILLIANT!!

 

 

Lucky YOU!! Tell us more when you can!!

I'll give a full report when I return from Denmark

Back from the concert now, deadly tired, but going to Denmark in 3 hours.

Briliant concert, brilliant Mika, got a few souvenirs and got a hug outside the arena after the show

Can't decde whether I should go down now or wait a bit :-S

I'll keep my phone ready for any norsk-recordings

God, I'm getting nervous :-S

ooooooh, vi har fått en part 2!!!

Fikk endelig logget meg inn via mac'en min nå

Er det noen her som skal på konserten i Oslo imorgen? Spurte i konserttråden men ingen har svart, så spør her også. Noen meetup noe sted?

I was wondering the same thing, as I'm going alone.. Anyone wanna meet up?

You've still got until October 31 to get something in, if you're interested.

 

Also - if you're any good at layout (programs like PageMaker, Publisher, InDesign, Quark) I desperately need layout help.

I am VERY interested!!

Lemme have a look at the different categories and tell ya what I fancy doing, yeah?

But him saying that his father is american doesn't need to mean more than his father having been born/grown up in America.. He's got an american passport himself as well, so...

Damn, I didn't see this project until today *cries*

I think I've been sleepoing under a rock or something :-S

If you need more lines I'll be more than happy to help out again if my voice was good enough that is

I wanna send more Mika mail!!! I love sending pressies!

Europe and the UK have different single release times; i believe europe still haven't got Big girl yet and Love Today is only just starting to make waves? So it doesn't matter.

 

I mean Mika will have to perform a tune @ the brits; and lets be honest He will be chosen to perform biggest Act of 2007 is MIKA! and so it won't be Happy Ending as that would be old by the time the brits comes round which is in Febuary for all those unaware about the brit awards!

 

The next possible singles after Happy Ending are either Relax/Lollipop and i feel It'll be Relax; as Lollipop is more of an Album song! IMO!

They do play the Big Girl- vid in Norway, but I don't know if that automatically spells release or not..

Do you think it ever will though? If he was planning on releasing it there, wouldn't he have syncronised it with the release of it in the rest of Europe instead of releasing Love Today?

Love Today"

Well i was christened so i guess i'm christian, not sure know cause i like all the withcraft stuff :/

Being baptized by parents doesn't make you religious.. I was too, but I'm pagan (as in use-whatever-"supernatural"-gifts-you-have- pagan), with a strong affection towards catholicism.. I'm weird
