. . . cont:

*La Nacionale is a swell, authentic &

moderately-priced Spanish restaurant;

*when you schedule a sedan to upper broadway to see MIKA,

they send a ridiculous S T R E T C H limo--at no extra fee;

*the Lobby Lounge on the 35th floor of the

Mandarin Oriental is a VERY nice place to hang out AND

*IF you are very fortunate, MIKA & his "mafia" will stop in

--where you are after his show--

at the restaurant right across the street from the

United Palace--which, BTW, is an amazing theater

for an AMAZING PERFORMER!

hi ya

Trying to learn as much as I can about NYC!

I'm good; how 'bout you?

Good to know: I think I will receive mine from AMAZON TODAY!

. . . safely far back from the stage invasion freaks . . .

Hi ya . . .

Hi, ya. Thanx!

Yeah, I remember: Wish someone (other than Andy) had a record of it. Well, you are my witness. Actually, I thought MIKA meant the performance in Boston following--or any of the shows. I totally lost my wits that night.

I've pretty much decided on NYC this time around for multiple & various reasons. Just between you and me, the 'stage invasions' scare the SH*T out of me--though MIKA really seems to enjoy them. I liked the Electric Factory; the Security guys there were cream puffs. Have fun. MIKA doing his new music should be amazing.

RUNS to myspace FAST!

I ate a mess of Indian food at lunch time, but it was really my breakfast.

Didn't feel so good after. Had a chocolate milkshake for dinner, but when I poured the "dividend" part out, it came out in a big thick lump and flooded the soda glass and poured all over the table top.

Just had a midnight snack of nearly a whole packet of Ritz crackers! I hope my tummy understands! It's all about the food.

OK, you're on my friend/contact list now . . .

Can't join in, I'm stuck in the USA, BUT I hope YOU or SOMEONE throws a pair of white boxers at MIKA for me!

HI: OK now we are on each others "friends" list.

I was there; give me some clues? what did we talk about?

Wasn't it a swell time?

Hi ya, Natalie--

Re: Your extra ticket,

put it on the extra ticket thread, why don't you?

Time's going to be REALLY tight.

Don't expect to "arrive" until mid-afternoon--YIKES!

Got to get my "will call" tickets sometime?

(Have no idea how that will work!)

Going to try for an early dinner with some NYC friends

(who are not going to see MIKA's show)

at "LUPA", I think.

(Want to go watch the "Dosa Man" at his cart sometime--just for kicks.)

[if this trip goes well, maybe we'll come back later in summer for a longer visit.]

Though warned that "Cafe Reggio" is 'touristy,"

I'd still like to check it out.

Think the Dove Parlour looks like a good place for me to come down off my MIKA HIGH afterwards, but local friends may have other ideas!

NOT ENOUGH TIME!

Of course the main event is MIKA's performance--and hoping also can speak with him before or after. GOSHhhhhhhh.......

ALICE (in Wonderland)

Do I sound excited enough?

Hi Holly,

Maybe you should stop messin' with your face & give it a little rest.

If it's "gunna" peel, it's "gunna" peel--there's no stopping it . . .

Anyway, don't know how to spot everyone from MFC,

BUT I think it'll be an epic MIKA performance!

(Try to watch "much music" thing on SUN. for MIKA & PEREZ)

Hi LUCY: I REMEMBER, of course. I'm pretty excited about this up-coming

NYC gig. Short trip. Just up for MIKA & back home next morning.

Hi, Anouk, So glad to see you here. There is soooo much to look at;

it's difficult to see all . . . pace yourself, Ha!

MIKA could make it sooooo much easier if he would have a little m&g for the MRFers as he did in LA: Quick, light some votive candles . . .

Hi Holly, YES, I noticed you're coming--that's swell!

Now, how to ID you amongst 700 others, Ha, Ha . . . .

Did you ever get to the Tommy Bahama place in Naples?

Hi agathaxxx!
