I could probably have surgery without pain relief if Mika was looking at me

!!

:lmfao:Somehow I completely understand you:fangurl:

Ok...

 

 

 

I think I've missed something here. What happened? I saw Mika tweet BS cos they were sorting out attendees of some special gig or something. I didn't realise there was anything more than that. I didn't even realise he was following her. I obviously wasn't following particularly closely:naughty: So there was a negative fallout? That seems quite ludicrous to me.

 

.

Same here. But I just read Tokyo report thread and now I understand what Christine said. I wish I could do anything to make Blue Sky feel better. Maybe she needs a break

Mika was following Blue Sky on Twitter for his own purposes. I'm not sure Blue Sky would want to take advantage of that situation to get his attention for something totally unrelated.

Oh:shocked:. Didn't even know that he followed her on twitter at all

Thank you Blue Sky for the video you posted:thumb_yello:

I chucked a video together last night when I couldn't sleep, but knowing me I'll probably stumble upon a bunch of awesome photos and videos and start again

 

Ok let's give it one more try:

Yay!!!

Thank you Mici and BS, I finally managed to post some pics. Wow, it takes for ever:blink:

Oh, wait! what happened where are they???

*sigh* all the way through the thread.

 

i'm back in NZ now guys. and i hate it

Thanks for your encouragement, because I feel like I’m writing far too much, but I can’t stop! I need to remember it all!

I will post very soon but before I go I have to say I have never had so much fun with so many out of tune people in my life!

 

Mi-Ki

Oh! Was I really?:teehee:Sorry Mici:blush-anim-cl:

Dr John – Mika wore the orange feathered hat put it on and off, and at one point (not sure if it was this song or later) I was wondering if he was being tempted to throw it into the crowd, and had an idle thought wondering how hard he would find it to replace it! He was swinging it back and forth with a considering look on his face. ..

I know, I thought he was going to throw it at 2 different occasions but then he put it away:roftl:

So it is October then?

 

Why was Cherisse talking about how they're coming back in Feb last night? =/

Could it be a promo tour, so soon??:woot_jump:This time I'm definitely stalking. My DS4 would have statred school:pbjt:

Part 3 The concert. (Overview) probably to be skipped unless you reallly do like detail!

 

I thought today about how I had been speaking with everyone before the concert and I had total confidence as I assured them that this concert would be one of the very best of their life. Oh wow, was that ever true!!!!!

 

The couch arrived on stage, and I enjoyed listening to the speculation about how Mika must be curled up in it ready to spring out at any moment. But he didn’t spring! There were mutters about how long it was taking him to leap out – but he didn’t. .. Soon the band gathered, and I enjoyed the interplay on the couch. The people behind me were so puzzled – they had no clue what it was all about. They were not MFCers, and it was fun listening to them being so confused.

 

Then the spaceman arrived, and wearily took off his suit. He plodded offstage (from my POV) – the raised platform at the back extended off the side of the stage.

 

Then he exploded onto the stage and dashed to the front and just went for it! The audience went wild, and it never stopped after that!

 

Overview – Every now and then Mika kind of turned and looked and listened and blazed with joy as he took a moment to realize how much the audience was involved in the music. I also took a moment around then (but not at that precise time, so as not to miss his reactions) to turn and see the audience and see what he was seeing. It was incredible.

 

 

(IMO, Aussie audiences generally make tough crowds. The front few rows get involved, but as you move back, even in the standing zone, the cool folk and non-dancers are just standing there and absorbing. And in the balconies, in the seated areas, there is no hope of much audience interaction. People in seats feel really constrained to sit still and behave themselves. An artist who can get any of the seated folk moving for longer than a few bars is extremely rare. Sometimes they manage a whole hit single of activity, but then the seats attract, and the folks sit down. )

 

 

At first, it was the standard result, but as the evening progressed, it very quickly became clear how contagious Mika is, and for the last few songs and the end it seemed ot me that the whole crowd was ecstatically on its feet and waving arms.

 

And singing.

 

 

I’ve never heard anything like it. From the beginning, every song, every word was being sung by enough of the audience to make it very clear to Mika and the band how well the entire crowd knew it all. I think it was Dr John that clinched it for me. It’s not being touted as a single, but it was the first song he played from the new album, and there was no lessening in the crowd volume at all!!! Same for Pick Up Off The Floor. If any two were going to be unknowns, I would have picked them. But everyone obviously loves them all.

 

 

So we had the songs, where Mika and the band were louder than the audience singing, but if you really wanted to concentrate fully and totally on hearing Mika, a little bit of effort was required. (That includes the effort to escape the draw of the voices and the need to join in again and be involved in the joy.) And then he would finish a song and the applause would start, and it did not stop until he started speaking or the first bars of the next song began, and we waited for the right moment to begin the singing. And it was singing, except for where Mika deliberately raised our volume, and we had to be louder. He was using us as a strong backing voice for his harmonies and we did it! That seems rare to me, and it usually seems that when he starts to try the harmony, the audience tries to go with him, rather than supporting him. But we did it! He was braver with that more towards the end, as you would understand, but wow!

And it’s not that the speaker volume was low. I was singing and screaming, and could only hear myself as a thin thread of sound. It was just the number of us involved that made us so loud. Have I said wow enough times yet?

 

I usually spend the entirety of a concert being a silent, listening, engrossed person. I stand further back and listen. I don’t sing as my voice is appalling, and the more effort I put into singing, the less I seem to be able to pay real attention to the singer. This time, I lost all that. I just had this massive compulsion to show Mika every time he glanced my way that I knew every word, and was having the best time of my life. I screamed so much I have a sore throat and husky voice. And I still feel as though I lived every song with him and paid full attention to every word. The only song I managed to be mostly still for was I See You, and that was hard to do, but I needed to be able to remember that I had appreciated the song as much as I possibly could.

 

I’m feeling overwhelmed at the memory again, and I’m not sure where to begin next, so I’ll post this and think some more.

Oh Mouselle! I think you are putting our exact feelings into words:thumb_yello: My face is tired from smiling all the time:wub2: I think I owe Mika :teehee:a stress therapy

Report:

Before starting, please ignore any typing mistakes as I Have my pupils dilated with drops and can barely see the letters:teehee:

Thank you so much for everyone who made this experience possible. I have this silly smile on my face and even my son's tantrums can not get it off:wub2:

I've never seen Mika as happy as he was yesterday.I think we really surprised him especially when everybody was singing the songs of TBWKTM. I think he waswn't expecting to see an audience on fire. And we were:teehee:

We were in the front row, right there. A lot of eye contact. It was heaven I do apologise from Mici ,Flossy and Kezc if I had annoyed them with my constant jumping .Others might have gone thru the details in other posts so I'm not going to repeat them. But I'll talk abt the meet and greet. Again thank you soooo much for everyone who made it possible.

I gave Mika a present wrapped in christmas paper and I said Merry christmas! He said Oh a present. I had written on the paper to Mika from Mireille Geha thinking that I might not be able to give it to him in person. So he read the name out loud and he said have we met before? I should have said yes in another life: you were romeo and I was Juliette:teehee:, but I just said no. He said I know the name. And I said I tweet to you a lot:teehee:. Then he opened it. It's a willow tree sculpture called Happiness. I engraved on a base under it: Happiness is what you put in our hearts. Thanks Mika, your biggest fan Mireille Geha. He asked me if it was clay, I said I don't know I didn't make it I only bought it:teehee:. Then he thanked me and I asked for a hug, he said sure:blush-anim-cl:. I asked him if MFC could have their own gig next year, he said we will see, I don't know yet.After that he went on to speak to other fans. I stayed a couple of meters away and kept staring at him. I just couldn't get enough of him. I also said hello to Mrs Penniman and spoke to her in arabic. She offered some Lebanese sweets (Beklawa) to Kezc and myself. On the way leaving I said to Cherisse Bye she said see you next year.

Thank you Mika for putting a smile on our dial:wub2:

OTOH, we are working on/hoping for an MFC Aussie meet & greet.
