I have to sell my ticket for this show. If anyone is still looking for one, please DM me.

I hate to do this. Hate it. But it's going to be REALLY impossible for me to make the trip I had planned to make. Family obligation

If you're interested, they're face value. Le Poisson Rouge is $40.50, Union Transfer (Philadelphia) is $37.25,

It's not Sherlock, but I'm just gonna leave this here for those of us who happen to be Neil Gaiman fans as well as Cumberbatch fans.

Deb - I dunno, I know I missed the meet and greet thing, but you know? I got a hug from Joy and a Happy birthday from her and Tim - I think I'm good with the tradeoff!

Well... I've finally processed my first Mika gig. Holy crap, y'all. I've done a lot of things in my past, including various illegal substances (which I can't really recommend, but hey, experimentation...) and I have never felt as potent a high as Gig High. I thought you long-timers were kidding, or overstating and I. Was. So. Wrong.
I have this little mental disconnect when it comes to famous people. It's almost like they're cartoon characters, or fictional in some way, so when Mika came on stage there was this odd moment of "wow, he's actually real, in the flesh, right here in front of me!" and then all of that was blown out of my head by the first notes of Relax. The rest of the evening is a blur of screaming, dancing, jumping, and above all, smiling joyfully. (or grinning like an idiot, depending on who you ask )
It took two days for my poor old legs to recover from the jumping, and it was worth every minute.
I keep finding videos of the show on youtube, and I can see my little pudgy arms I don't REMEMBER dancing that much, but there it is on video so I must have!
I met the most wonderful people in the queue. It was so wonderful to put faces with all the names! Made wonderful new friends, met people I've been talking to for ages and got to poke them a little and say, "hey, you're real! you're not just an avatar!"
I can't wait for the new year - more potential gigs in the US, more travel, more wonderful people to see and meet...

With this and the brilliant Stardust from outside Webster Hall, I wonder how many more you could rewrite? :teehee:

I'm more interested in you guys, there is such a huge selection of artists to for fans to be obessesed with, im curious to how you ended up being such huge fans of Mika?
That's an easy one. He's got a unique ability to make music that really resonates. The sort of thing that gets stuck in your head for days, but somehow you don't mind. (That last part is key - there are plenty of TERRIBLE songs that get stuck in your head and make you want to drive an ice pick through your ears, praying the song just goes away.) The Eye Candy factor is huge too - He's REALLY easy to look at Tall, lanky, amazing cheekbones, lush lips and eyes that bore into your very SOUL
Plus, I think a lot of us really enjoy the unselfconsciousness on stage. He's never nervous about the fact that he can't really dance, he just kind of says "to heck with it, i'm dancing whether I look goofy or not!" That kind of joy is transportive - it gets you outside yourself, which is an amazing and wonderful talent.
I know I don't speak for all fans, just for myself, but I think there are probably a couple who might know what I'm talking about in these rambling 5AM thoughts.

If anyone has an extra ticket for this night, please let me know. I was unable to get in on it because i was on the road, no internet while driving
-
Christine, can you get to imgur?
It's front and back CD cover and preorder buttons.
-
DCDeb, I may be able to pre-fill those tickets for you, there were a few friends who didn't know about the presale and are REALLY wanting to go. if all else fails, don't stress. I'll buy the extras if they don't get snapped up.

I love the back and forth in this video from solo, isolated Mika to "screw this, i'm going OUT" Mika. and how one feeds the other. The scraps of paper from the frustrated songwriting becoming the confetti in the club... makes a weird amount of sense, I like it.
-
I want to put something here, so that we understand a little better what LGBTQ people face on coming out in SO many places... this makes my heart ache, that people still have to deal with this sort of reaction.

wasn't that first one also in the video from tunisia? perhaps he's a bodyguard.

This is not lyrics. This is Tourette's Syndrome without profanity.

ooooh, hey, who else do we know who refers to Mika as a Lord Holbrook or Lord Penniman?

My egoism was shown, when I showed anger at Ida. But this was long gone. Now I really would have been happy if he married her. Or on the other girl. I overcame jealousy and selfishness. But now it's not the case. I can not recognize this as love. That's it. This is a sexual relationship.
It is pure egotism that makes you say "He can't possibly love another man, it's just sex. He could turn away from it if he wanted to."
We could get into biology, biochemistry, but it would be pointless. It is what it is. Mika is in love with a man, with all the wonderful things that love involves.
To say he CHOSE to fall in love with a man is saying YOU could choose to fall in love with a woman, if you wanted to. Try it, and then come back and tell us how it went.
He can no more choose to be attracted to women than you can choose to be attracted to women. Gender preference and attraction is hardwired into the brain, it's not something we get to pick.

Jump to 17:25:00 and you can watch his full set. It has a few pauses with russian I can't read - I think it's connection issues warning messages. But I'm watching

When people ask me The Question, I usually just tell them I'm sapiosexual. I dig smart people. That usually sets them back from asking for a little bit. "so, you're bisexual then." "well, if you say so but I prefer to identify as sapiosexual instead. It's more true than just bisexual."
That way they have to go THINK about it for a bit.

If being reminded politely to follow the established rules is bullying, then HELP HELP I'm being repressed!
I love this place. I'm not a loud sort, I keep to myself mostly, but I have always, always felt welcome when i DO open my mouth. And no, I don't toe the party line on a lot of things. But I've never been made to feel like a Lesser Fan because i didn't show up in 2007 or 2008, or because I've only been to X number of gigs instead of Y.
I reallly love this place. It's never been anything but supportive and kind. And I'm glad to be here.
