I'm still in shock over how EPIC the entire thing was. Before anything else, I want to say THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH to Alice for the unexpected gift! That was so generous of you, even Mika made it a point to say so when I got him to sign it (I actually felt like a child being lectured on how to properly accept a valuable gift ).
This was my first gig since 2007, and I can honestly say it was one of the best shows I've attended. Ever. I was first in line, and it was SO worth the wait. Mika's voice sounded amazing, and the acoustics in this venue were just perfect for it. When he first tried turning off the mic for Lola, I thought This probably won't last long, but it worked, and it sounded wonderful. When he did Stardust later on, I was like
"Magical" is the only way I can think to describe it. I know that may sound incredibly cheesy, but it's true. It's like we were all under some sort of spell (one that kept us all quiet anyway). Thanks again kreacher, for offering up your prime spot near the end!
Like everyone else, I was shocked that he actually took the time to see all of us afterward. I can't remember what I said to him when he signed my book, but I was probably spouting random nonsense (Always happens, I tend to have the worst luck when meeting famous people). Instead of just signing his name, he drew some weird illuminati-like sort of scribble inside the book. I thought that was cool.
I had SO much fun at this gig, and I enjoyed meeting all of you!
Thanks again to Alice for the book! That practically made my day before the show even started.
Thank you Ladyeridan for the ticket (sorry that you couldn't make it. Hopefully I'll meet you sometime at a future gig!).
Thank you to kreacher and nas for being such good company in the queue (you guys made those first few hours go by much faster). As well as everyone else from MFC that I got to meet. I hope I see you all again real soon!
