That’s been very annoying and stressful, thanks god I was on a day off since it wouldn’t have been possible if I would had to work of course 🙈

It took me 2 hours and half to reserve 3 tickets (and I had to take them one by one) 😂 what a struggle

Sooooooo: he talked about Turin, Ancona on Nov 26th, Rome on Nov 27th, Milan or Dec 3rd (something else in 2019?) then festivals in 2020 🤩

Last time he did few dates before the album release, singing just TAY, good guys, Last party, BBB and good wife as new songs 🤔 but this time we seem to have Ice Cream and maybe something else untile September? 🤔 and Its my house and Sound of an orchestra, if they are also meant to be part of live shows

I don’t think he meant stuff like that as small shows 🤔 but shows in little venues, maybe acoustic (?) what I find a bit weird is that in the Christmas message the whole album and tour didn’t seem so far, while now it’s May and we still don’t know anything 🤔 of course we just have to wait (good things come to those who wait, as Guinness says 🍻 😂)

How can the sale be legal? 😳🤔 It’s like If I say that this Saturday there is Mika singing in my living room and I start selling tickets to fool people who don’t check if the event is also on official channels 😂🤔

It sounds really crazy 😳

I'm curious to know if he will do some Summer festival or it will be everything starting from Autumn 🤔 of course we will just have to wait anyway 😂

Certo che sembrava che dentro fossero riservate solo le prime 2 file, non 200 posti 🤔 Mah vattelappesca

No, prima della Leone penso abbiano svuotato del tutto e sono entrati insieme i fan di Mika e della Leone

Alla fine la sala non era vuota, almeno la platea (esisteva un piano di sopra?) Le prime 2 file della platea erano sicuramente riservate, tu calcola che io stando in coda dalle 9 avevo il numero 82 sulla mano ed ero circa la 70esima ricontando le persone nella fila per mika, e ho trovato posto nella quintultima (esiste come parola? 😂) fila della platea 🙄 Non ho capito fino a che numero hanno fatto entrare

da te ci mancherebbe 😂 ma la capacità della sala era limitata e il sistema del "first in first served" senza nessuna conferma genera un'ansia che non dovrebbe esserci per un evento del genere, razionalmente è assurdo stare in fila dall'alba per 30 minuti di talk (non si parla di ottenere dal prima fila di un concerto) e per essere sicuri di entrare al 100% , anche perchè fino all'ultimo lo staff sembrava non avere del tutto presente se la sala sarebbe stata svuotata, o se solo all'ora di pranzo o se anche prima di mika, quindi le persone per essere sicure di entrare anche ne caso la sala non fosse stata svuotata del tutto, sono arrivate prestissimo (e tu lo saprai meglio di me) A me oltre alle ore di coda pesa il dover fare sempre le cose con una certa ansiella che possa andare tutto male 🙄

This is my video of the second part of the talk I really enjoyed mika’s event per se, it’s always a pleasure hearing him telling stories and talking about his life (even if I would prefer 10000 times going to a gig of course😂) It was the kind of event which I wouldn't ever travel to go if It would have happened in a tour period, but since we can't look forward to tour dates at the moment, I decided to go anyway But the whole event was really stressful, we had to queue to be sure to find a seat in the movie theatre, I arrived there at 9 AM and I was about the 80th in the queue 🙈 and it was lightly raining 🙄 Rain stopped after a couple of hours luckily, but it wasn’t really fun waiting until 4 PM outside, it was quite cold, and at a certain moment I was also quite concerned we wouldn’t even get in the movie theatre, since the staff didn’t seem so sure about how many people letting in (there were other talks before Mika and they had to empty the theatre). The theatre had a 340 people capacity and the first 2 rows were reserved, so it was clear that we had to go there quite early 🙄 Luckily I managed to get in, but I’m sure that many other fans who have anyway queued outside few hours, even if less than me, didn’t manage 🙈 After the event it was such a mess, many people were waiting in a regular street and of course Mika couldn’t stop, he just waved goodbye :) I hope he notices the positive side of the mess, that he still has such a good fanbase in Italy which we hope that will be there when the album will be out 🤞🏻 Now I'm really looking forward to hear new music of course, we heared the little snippet at the provate event, so let's hope we won't have to wait too long 😍

Il problema è stato che non hanno svuotato dopo la Leone ma prima, quindi chi era per lei è rimasto dentro togliendo spazio a chi aspettava per Mika 🙈

Questo è il mio video del secondo estratto che ha letto 😊 Bell’intervento, organizzazione meh, io ad esempio sono stata in fila dalle 9 di mattina ed ero tra le ultime file della platea, bene così, mi dispiace per chi ha fatto comunque un bel po di fila ed è rimasto fuori speriamo in tempi migliori con cose più capienti, perché in Italia ha ancora una bella fanbase numerosa che spero si coltivi bene,si è visto dalla confusione all’uscita 😂

This is my video of (part of) Billy Brown It's been a really nice trip, listening to Mika talking is always a pleasure, and Billy Brown was just the "cherry on top" This made me just being more impatient about the upcoming album and tour

il mio video di Billy Brown 🤩

magari a lui piace pure leggere che i fan non stanno più nella pelle e non vedono l'ora e glielo chiedono di continuo (tralasciando eventuali commenti ineccettabili e palesemente maleducati)

the main problem is when people overlap “single fans behavior” with “MFC” 🙈 I repeat it’s not all black and white at all, it’s not “all people on MFC behaving badly” but please don’t think the opposite either, that all stuff that people say (about single fans) is invented just because of jealousy 🙈 something is true, something is not, something is in part true but then people exaggerate (like the telephone game) then we can agree that MFC can do nothing about single people behavior 🤗 I agree with you about the image campaign 😊

I guess it could be later, since if the album would be out in autumn, I guess there would be at least some summer festival...like he did in 2012 and the album came out in September 🙈 but then, at the question about “gigs” this year, did he mean no festivals too? 🤔 I would say yes, but who knows 🤔

I think the main thing in Italy is that the community became quite big and things are not always clear... As we said there is often competition between fans, and many of times it looks some fans just want to overcome others with any way possible (misleading others saying wrong things, not sharing information with others, etc... and it’s sad when it seems that you dont ever know who you can trust) Of course it not all black or white and it’s true what you say about building friendships over the years, but it seems also that some people are interested just in friends who can be “helpful” 🙈

Yes, it may happen... and there are problems when a) people who do that start saying to people who complain that they are just being jealous and telling lies b) people start saying that these episodes are MFC related (when its jut single people initiative) or that Mika encourages them

I hope too (and most of times I’m quite sure it’s not possible 😂)

Yes, it’s common that when people complain (sometimes people can exaggerate, or talk just about rumors that aren’t even true, that’s another story!) the answer they get it that they are just jealous: because if some people are more smart, more organized, have more “helpful friends”, more time and resources to dedicate to follow Mika events, then they deserve to see him again or better than others, and if someone complains about something, that’s just being jealous . About arginating people making gossips about MFC, I know it’s the other side of the problem 😒 I don’t know how it could be solved, maybe if we all would say in a clear way how we get what we get? How can some people 99% manage ways to enter events even if they initially didn’t succeed buying tickets or winning competitions? Because most of the “gossips” are about MFC (or Mika staff) giving more stuff or informtion to some members 🙈 (and Sometimes times I’m sure it wasn’t true because I was also there and I saw it) but how did we arrive to this point?

Exactly, at least in Italian big dates if you want to get a good front row spot you have to start queuing at least at 4 am but sometimes it’s not even enough 🙈 then most of the fans who get front row would have got it in a fair way, queuing all those hours, but there will always be the “smart ones with generous friends” who keep their place and skip the effort 😂 and then maybe say they have queued for 3466346 dates and this time they deserve to relax 😂 but well, I’m sure this happens at every gig, it’s not Mika fandom perks 😂
