I probably succeeded thanks to you Since he just signed your gift he was probably more aware ....

Thank you that's verry sweet! I had to yank it from under the pen but I succeded

That's the back of my head!! The one with the tuque lol!! No no ... I think you are talking about me, I was just behinh you during the show and just beside you at the m & g ... I was like when he touched my card

What an amazing day!! I arrived around 1:00 pm. A few minutes after the owner of a furniture shop asked us to separate the line so we wouldn't block the view. A member of the security staff later came to push us further back at least twice It was so cold ... 2 degrees ... my feet were freezing and my back was killing me but it was so worth it!! I met lovely people in line, including Guylaine and Cathouzouf which was nice since I came alone. They let enter only a few people at a time so it wouldn't be chaos inside and I got 2nd row near the center, just behind Roxanne and Véronique (? I'm not sure about your name ). The DJ set warmed me up but I would have love to be able to hear what Curtis and Max were saying, they seemed to have so much fun! Then Mika arrived and the place ignited. I could only see the top half of his face when he was on the piano, but luckily he came on the front of the stage often. He said, about the new french song that Doriand thought it would be nice to talk about the fact that he was getting older and that it was probably some sort of vengeance since Doriand is even older, so I dont think Mika is really that anxious about turning 30. He messed up his set list and asked what he sould play next. He then proceeded in doing Karen and Rain like asked ... and completely forgot Rain's 2nd verse like the others said already. Stardust and Happy Ending ... At the end the crowd was so loud, Mika had to remove his ear pieces. He of course ended with Over my shoulder, wich is not my personnal favorite, but was a nice ending anyway (There are several slow paced song, my personnal favorites, that he never sings ) After the show we went outise to wait for him. There were A LOT of people and I got nervous I wouldn't be able to give him my gift, but luckily the security staff kept people somewhat in line and Mika passed the whole line. When he got to me I had to tell him twice not to sign my gift and remove it from under his pen but he finally took it. At first he took it without really looking but then he had a second look, touched it and said it was really beautiful. And then I and forgot to thank him or say anything and he was gone Here is me earlier with my gift, a card made with fabric (Thanks Cathouzouf for the picture!! ) I hope he'll read it, I made sure it was not too long Like I said before, what an AMAZING day!!!!!

Finally arrived home safe and sound. What an amazing day!! Report will come later. Off to bed verry tired.

I'm coming to get excited in your thread Christine, have fun tonight!!!

Two days!!! But it will be cold saturday, bring warm clothes!!

Here is mine I used the «craft your life» part to make a messenger bag so it wouldn't go to waste

Mine is there too!

Mikasoon has definitively taken over facebook

Indeed

I will quote Christine from earluer in this thread

What a lovely report! Thank you!!

Thank you for the lovely report Mana! I'm even more excited to see this gig!!

It would be very nice to meet you Lets hope he comes back soon so you can see him

Indeed it seems that in small streets around the theater there are areas where you can park (without parking meters) at least according to google street view. I have this wild idea in my head that you cant park anywhere in Montreal Oh and I've also found these websites just in case: http://montreal.bestparking.com/ and http://www.maplace.ca/

Hmmm I'm even less familiar with the Metro I've never taken it I think I prefer finding a parking within walking distance (if there are any...) that way it will probably be easier after the gig

I'm starting to plan the trip there in case someone else lives in the Quebec city area we could travel together (I have a car) and divide gas $$... If someone is interested you can private message me if you prefer. And another question, I'm not familiar with the area of Montreal where the Corona Theatre - what would you suggest is the best option for parking? And might I just add 18 days left!!!!!

Such a beautiful moment! Her smile through the whole song!!

Thanks for the reports and many beautiful pics!!

For real? Then I just found out I've been pronouncing it wrong all my life (exactly like Mika did) Well I've learned something today! lol

You mean Max and Cutris? But I find it strange that there wont be any guitar?

I can't wait!!

Of course I am! But I'm coming alone this time, I wont drag him there Looking forward to meeting you and everyone! And you too Alie!

Yes! It's about the music, but also the atmosphere in the air transmitted by Mika and everyone around ... I don't know how to describe the feeling. I tried to describe this feeling to the hubby who said I might as well listen to the show on Youtube instead of going all the way to Montreal and I didn't quite know how to explain it.
