Talking about whipping i can't help but think of this pic again...

Gasmic thread? YOU? I've never seen you there to be honest...

I can't. I am married to my mobile phone and have already an affair with different Häagen-Dazs ice cream pints... But i guess the popcorn is taken anyway. Could swear i've seen Mika eating popcorn while wandering around on a street in Paris... No paparazzi around that day? Damn! A pic would've been a clear proof.

But popcorn is HOT!

*drops in with popcorn again* *makes herself comfortable again in this serious thread* I concur! Of course it is! I read all 70 pages and couldn't find anything nonserious or frivolous Selfish naughty little thing! Go off...not to the naughty corner, but to mikasounds to earn enough magic numbers! (If posting on the gasmic thread would count or using the words undies and tummy, you would've won the private gig long ago anyway!)

Happened to me a few pages back with coffee...

Thank you! Love your signatures and drawings too, they are very unique! Especially the one on the driving lesson appointment card - that's epic!

No speculations in this thread please. It's all about mere facts!

...just chocked MY coffee reading this...!!!! Awwww... :lmfao:

It says "Thank you" Don't worry, I didn't make it out immediately as well (actually it looks a bit like "shake you" IMO ) And i guess i must have looked a bit confused, because without me asking for it he read the two words out loud to me, emphasizing them like "Thank...*pause*...you!" and gave me the famous "Mikaish smile" in doing so That was cute somehow and we both and the people around us had to giggle a bit about that... Nice moment!

I really like this thread. You've all posted amazing things so far! Thanks for sharing Here's my latest "treasure" I'm happy that i got the new tour book signed at the M&G in Paris on tuesday, it's such a perfect souvenir of the whole trip now! Me: "Would you mind signing my book?" Mika: "With pleasure! Where do you want me to sign?"

Off for lunch break now, peeps. Guess I'm gonna get me an applepie as dessert! See you (probably 50 pages) later...

That's so selfless of you...thanks But i'll get mobile internet soon so i can attend a gig next time and still follow the MFC threads while dancing in the front row. Maybe i can shout up to Mika then and ask him the questions directly that are posted here? I haven't 500 by now... *refuses to go anyway*

Haha, i remember. But i would've never imagined it THAT funny Poor Mika...guess he never wanted us to find out about his relationship with apple pies.

Damn that i have been away in Paris and missed this thread while watching two Mika gigs instead...if i only had known what i missed here, that's much more entertaining than a live show of da man... :mf_rosetinted: *gets popcorn and stays in this thread*

Found these in the report threads, maybe they are helpful:

Just returned from Paris and will try to do a short report as well. First of all thanks to everyone who posted reports, pics and vids so far I didn't make any pics, sorry, cause i'm unfortunately unable to concentrate on taking pics or vids and enjoying the show totally at the same time (and i knew Tiibet would take pics and vids so i knew there would be very good ones from this gig ) Me and my friend Jessi (PinkTequila) arrived around 10 at the venue directly after arriving at Paris by plane. We got numbers 109 and 110 - freaky! It was ok for us because we were sure to get to the first rows anyway at a huge venue like this - and we ended up 2nd row nearly in the middle, what was fine. But anyway i wished that it wouldn't be necessary to arrive before dawn at a venue just to get a number less than 50! Anyway, we had a great view and stood right behind Bianca and her mum, having a fab time partying together - thanx again so much for taking care of our bags and programs, that was so kind! Must admit that i really enjoyed the queuing that day, time flew by chatting and having a great time all together. Big thanx to the many lovely MFC people like Bianca and her mother, melman92 (you were a great and lovely bride and your little dance with Mika looked really fine, don't worry! I enjoyed watching you on stage so much!), Aimee (i <3 Mika), Sara, mellody, Tiibet and the others we saw (again) that day. Weather was fine, our hotel was only a few steps away so we could bring our suitcases there and get us a coffee before returning to the venue. Like it has already been said John took care of us perfectly, watching after us and organized a special entrance for 150 peeps. Love him! For me the hardest part is always to wait for the supporting act (btw I really liked the supporting act in Paris - does anyone remember their name please?) after having entered the venue...time seems to crawl! So i was glad they sold the new programs then so i had something to pass time. And like it's been said before - it's so worth the 15 Euros!! Stunning pics (every single one!) and layout. The pictures convey the fun and heart's blood as well as the hard work and effort that's behind putting up such a show. It is a perfect souvenir and - like mellody described it - a fab collectors item! Ok, now the show...what can I add that's not already been said? Definitely want to mention that i really loved the crowd during OMS. Mika sang it so perfectly and full of emotion - and it was overwhelming that 17.000 people were actually quiet when he sang it. Got me goose bumps! They only applauded impressed between his singing parts and got quiet again when he started singing again - that was so respectful and stunning, it really moved me. Happy Ending was a highlight as well for me, Tiibet described it very well: The part when he made, smiling, the heart with his hands back to the crowd which was making hearts to him, was so cute and lovely. It was such a nice connection between him and "us". Loved that! And like mellody said i share her impression that it took a while until both Mika and the crowd were totally on fire. Like she said, you wouldn't have noticed it if it was your first Mika gig, because he was still magnificent. But at the second Paris gig for example he was much more on fire and more relaxed from the beginning on (that's my personal impression at least), shouting out something (in french of course) like "Let's have fun and have a party all together!". It was amazing and a great sight when the crowd started doing the Mexican wave, shouting "Mika, Mika!" and clapping before the gig. What an atmosphere! Kudos to lillibet and the "french corner" on the left who started it!!! But the audience was comparatively calm during the first songs. Until "Rain", from then on suddenly everyone seemed to explode! Loved being a part of that! The band was awesome as well. They contribute so much to making Mikas gigs remarkable and unique, by just being fabulous and entertaining. I laugh ever time during SITM when they all signal that Mikas first try to do the trumpet solo is just crap Loved the band during KA as well - it seems they are having more and more fun dancing and messing around during this song from gig to gig! And i like it that the audience boos at Mika after he shoots down his whole band - what gets him to finally "shoot" the audience as well, before turning around and saying "Excusez-moi!" in a diabolic exaggerated way. Grace Kelly, sung half in french, was another highlight for me. Because i love hearing Mika sing the lyrics in french. That's music to my ears! Ida was live even more stunning doing her opera part before GGG than i expected it after the first vids from other venues. Just wow! And Mika interacting with her like a pouting little boy who tries to gain back attention is so funny and cute. As TY is one of my favorite songs, i enjoyed that extremely as well. The crowd was jumping, singing along and rocking the venue! Mika performed TY remarkably well, was very sultry (doing the famous "hand-touches-head-tummy-hips-movement" combined with flirty looks ) and although i still don't get the whole meaning of the dragon, i like it a lot cause it just looks fabulous! Same for the "Billy" Flag - it's so huge and impressive and i especially like the ending when Mika poses next to the flag and tears it finally down. To sum it all up, it was a memorable evening i wouldn't have wanted to miss. It was a spontanious decision and not that easy to get the days off at work, finding an affordable flight and so on. But Mika, the band and the other MFC peeps made it a hundred times worth it! Off to bed now, will try to report about the 2nd gig tomorrow/soon. P.S: Deb, i totally agree! We also enjoyed the chat with you and your friend (sorry, I don't remember her name too) A LOT!!! You're such a friendly and likeable person - thanx again for helping with the tix for this gig and I really hope to see you again soon!!!

OFF TO PARIS!!! *so excited* Plane is supposed to arrive at 8.35h in Paris, hope everything will work out - can't wait to see the new show and looking forward to meet the other MFCers

Can't stop laughing!!! MORE, MORE, MORE please

Updates!!! Promised +1!

Nina, I'm on my knees. Thanks so much for your report (can't wait for part 2). Please stop worrying about grammar or that you were a bad BG. Your english is great and what you write is always to the point. And I'm sure you wasn't that bad as a BG as you think I'm glad you could enjoy the show at last so much (how nice of the two french boys to let you rest in their hotelroom - wow, that's not to be taken for granted! ) and I love the first pics you posted. They're amazing, as always. Can't wait to see you tomorrow in Paris!

Sorry for you but i think it's the right decision, although it would've been great if it had worked out, of course. We'll take you with us in thoughts (to the front row of course )!

:lmfao: I would quote all your latest pics but that would take too much space...but believe me, they were ALL so freakin' funny I nearly fell off my chair, laughing and struggeling for breath! M: "Hey there front row Wonka...so you think you are the cat's whiskers, making fun of me all the time...alright then, show me what you've got and gimme a live cap...NOW!"
