Mika said he would have participated in small shows...Ā
I donāt think he meant stuff like that as small shows š¤ but shows in little venues, maybe acoustic (?)Ā
what I find a bit weird is that in the Christmas message the whole album and tour didnāt seem so far, while now itās May and we still donāt know anything š¤
of course we just have to wait (good things come to those who wait, as Guinness says š» š)

Ciao Gabry, volevo capire perĆ² come mai la sala era vuota, e tutta quella gente ĆØ rimasta fuori? Ci hanno riferito che quelli che sono entrati saranno stati in tutto una cinquantina. Da dove ĆØ arrivata la gente che ha riempito la sala? Scusami ma non me la sto prendendo con te volevo solo capire, perchĆØ sono ancora molto delusa di come ĆØ stata gestita la cosa. Il tipo della sicurity ci aveva tranquillizzato dicendo che saremo entrati di sicuro perchĆØ come anche tu stessa mi hai detto quando ci siamo viste e salutate, ci stavamo benissimo come numero. Quindi cosa ĆØ successo? Ripeto Gabry, non me la sto prendendo con te,ci mancherebbeĀ lo so che tu non centri nulla!
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, Ā e ho trovato posto nella quintultima (esiste come parola? š) fila della platea š
Non ho capito fino a che numero hanno fatto entrareĀ

Ne ho numerate piĆ¹ di 140 e siamo entrati tranquillamente all'interno del multisala. Mi dispiace per chi ĆØ rimasto fuori, ma non ĆØ dipeso nĆØ da me e neanche dalla sicurezza.Ā
Ā
da te ci mancherebbeĀ š
ma la capacitĆ 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 ĆØ 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 perchĆØ 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 maleĀ š

This is my video of the secondĀ part of the talkĀ
Ā
I really enjoyed mikaās event per se, itās always a pleasure hearing him telling stories and talking about his life (even if I would prefer 10000 times going to a gig of courseš)
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 Ā
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 š and it was lightly raining š
Rain stopped after a couple of hours luckily, but it wasnāt really fun waiting until 4 PM outside,Ā it was quite cold, and at a certain moment I was also quite concerned we wouldnāt even get in the movie theatre, since the staff didnāt 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 earlyĀ š
Luckily I managedĀ to get in, but Iām sure that many other fans who have anyway queued outside few hours, even if less than me,Ā didnāt manage š
After the event it was such a mess, many people were waiting in a regular street and of course Mika couldnāt stop, he just waved goodbyeĀ :)
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 š¤š»
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 longĀ š

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

Questo ĆØ il mio video del secondo estratto che ha letto š
Bellāintervento, organizzazione meh, io ad esempio sono stata in fila dalle 9 di mattina ed ero tra le ultime file della platea, bene cosƬ, mi dispiace per chi ha fatto comunque un bel po di fila ed ĆØ rimasto fuoriĀ
speriamo in tempi migliori con cose piĆ¹ capienti, perchĆ© in Italia ha ancora una bella fanbase numerosa che spero si coltivi bene,siĀ ĆØ visto dalla confusione allāuscita š

This is my video of (part of) Billy Brown Ā
Ā
Ā
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

the main problem is when people overlap āsingle fans behaviorā with āMFCā š Ā I repeat itās not all black and white at all, itās not āall people on MFC behaving badlyā but please donāt think the opposite either, that all stuff that people say (about single fans) is invented just because of jealousy š something is true, something is not, something is in part true but then people exaggerate (like the telephone game)Ā
then we can agree that MFC can do nothing about single people behavior š¤
I agree with you about the image campaign š

Ā
He already said that the releasing of the new album won't happen in the first part of the year, so I suppose we can expect the gigs in the autumn, indeed, if not even later. At least now he has plenty of time to work in the studio until AprilĀ
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 š
but then, at the question about āgigsā this year, did he mean no festivals too? š¤ I would say yes, but who knows š¤

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 itās sad when it seems that you dont ever know who you can trust)Ā
Of course it not all black or white and itās 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 āhelpfulā š

If you broaden the term "Mika's team" to every Roadie or Security who works on the tour, or every Intern at a radio station where Mika does an interview, then yes, unfortunately this does happen occasionally - that some fans make friends with people working in Mika's entourage, to get what they want (information or entering venues before others, etc.). It has happened, tho luckily I didn't see it often, and I don't even know if Mika knows about this.
Ā
Of course if you just happen to have a friend who can get you access to Mika in some way, I think most of us would use this chance. But if someone is good at convincing people, they might use this skill to try and get closer to Mika by trying to make friends with those who might be helpful. I don't like this, but it happens everywhere - in my perception, even less on MFC than elsewhere, because there's some sort of group pressure on MFC, so you wouldn't have many friends here anymore if you do this.Ā Just my perception tho, I guess someĀ might not care that much if others here like them or not.
Yes, it may happen... and there are problems whenĀ
a) people who do that start saying to people who complain that they are just being jealous and tellingĀ liesĀ
b) people start saying that these episodes are MFC related (when its jut single people initiative)Ā or that Mika encourages themĀ

If you have a problem with me, you are lying because you are jealous and if you try to have a discussion I'll ban you or make you shutĀ up in some way.Ā
Yes, itās common that when people complain (sometimes people can exaggerate, or talk just about rumors that arenāt even true, thatās another story!) the answer they get it that they are just jealous: because if some people areĀ more smart, more organized, have more āhelpful friendsā, 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, thatās just being jealous .
About arginating people making gossips about MFC, I know itās the other side of the problem š I donāt 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 Ā people 99% manage ways to enter events even if they initially didnāt succeed buying tickets or winning competitions? Because most of the āgossipsā are about MFC (or Mika staff) giving more stuff or informtion to some members š (and SometimesĀ times Iām sure it wasnātĀ true because I was also there and I saw it)Ā
but how did we arrive to this point?Ā

Then those who don't have the money to pay for these tickets would also say it's unfair. Maybe Mika should use a stage design as in Bercy, with the catwalk into the crowd, then the front row would be longer. But then he'd also have to do half of the show on the front stage and half on the second stage, unlike in Bercy... otherwise it's unfair again. Besides, such a stage design only works in big arenas.
I don't think Mika wants to offer such VIP tickets, he wants everyone to have the same chances. Well, mostly... I've seen exceptions from that, too. And if you don't have the time or energy to queue for 2 days, you also don't have the same chances as those who do. Anyway, it's never 100% fair, no matter what we or Team Mika do, so I guess they will leave it as it is.
Exactly, at least in Italian big datesĀ if you want to get a good front row spot you have to start queuing at least at 4 am but sometimes itās not even enough š
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 āsmart ones with generous friendsā who keep their place and skip the effort š and then maybe say they have queued for 3466346 dates and this time they deserve to relax š but well, Iām sure this happens at every gig, itās not Mika fandom perks š
