So my friend (nett-a) and I came from Finland to Estonia on the 4th and stayed in a guest house of the Oru hotel, which was right next to Lauluväljak. So if there ever is another MIKA's gig at Lauluväljak, I recommend you to stay at that hotel. It was really nice, and not overly pricy.
We went queuing at 9am on the 5th, which was so not necessary because the we would have gotten the exact same places if we'd came at 5pm but we had fun. It didn't even seem that much like traditional queuing, more like chilling out with my friend.
We were let in at 5pm, but we didn't get to go in front of the stage, since MIKA and the band were doing their soundcheck. We got to listen to the songs, and he played a song called Kids, but unfortunately it wasn't a part of the setlist...
The gig started on time. It was amazing!!! Mika was dancing like crazy, and the whole audience was in it too!!
I really liked the new band, though I miss the old one...
If I counted correctly he played 17 songs, which included 5 of the new songs (the Origin of Love, Lola, Underwater, Celebrate, Make You Happy). All of the songs sounded sooooo amazing!! I like Make you happy now better that I've heard it live.
The gig lasted until 00.30. And after that we stayed there waiting for Mika to come say hi. He came outside, and gave a couple autographs but he was in such a hurry so he had to leave. Sadly I didn't get an autograph
This gig was one of my all time favourites!!! It was amazing, and MIKA seemed to have enjoyed it himself so much, so I doubt he wouldn't come to Tallinn again And when he comes, I will definitely be there!
My camera broke during the gig, so I will add some photos I took with my phone, they're not too great but still... I will check if any of the videos survived on my camera, and if did I'm going to add some on Youtube and link them here
