    You say that forums "aren't a thing anymore" and yet there are still hundreds of online forums -- you just have to look at the company that hosts this site. That's their business -- discussion forums. To be precise, YOU don't want to use the forum. For whatever reason, I don't know.

     

    I -- at my advanced, decrepit old age -- have learned TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat and am learning AI, in an effort to stay current and reach the fans who might not immediately find the MFC's website. But the website IS "still a thing", no matter how much you rant against it, and it is the "home base" of the fan club. I'm on social media steering fans here, because this is where everything major happens.

     

    Clearly, I don't -- I can't -- force anyone to register if they don't want to. But if you want to join in with what's happening with the MFC, you have to register an account so I know who you are. I can't possibly coordinate some of the things that I have to without knowing who I'm dealing with. It's such a simple thing, I don't understand why you resist it.

     

    In any case, you said above, "now what's left is to share all the infos there in order to include every fans." But you're missing the point. The fan club doesn't have to share the info with EVERY fan. Just fan club members, who in theory should be checking the website. When things come up, like this early entry that we're debating here, there is limited space. I absolutely can NOT include EVERY fan in that case. So let's say I put something on social media, we have a random draw. Then you will all complain about how the names were chosen. No matter how we choose. You don't trust me or the other moderators to choose. You don't like the results when someone else chooses, you think it was fixed.  :dunno:

    Well sadly I don't know many forums who are still very active, I used to be on some a while ago but they've closed since a while. So I've got nothing against them but now I'm kinda lost with some of it features.

     

     I'm not trying to offend anyone and I'm not trying to pretend I know better, I was just trying to discuss about what has happened in Bercy. I'm also not denying you've made efforts since I've noticed them but sadly it still lead to difficult situation like that...:dunno:

     

    Which is why as I said before efforts should come from both sides cuz yes not everyone like forums and not everyone like social medias.

     

    Another point is that I'm not so sure I'm the one who's missing the point here : honestly what's the point of it if you're not willing to accept everyone who wants to?? The problem is that we don't know when to check it and we don't know where...

     

    Our point is that there should be no random draw for big venues such as concert since fans usually made a list of people who arrived why not using it?? It would avoid frustration, since even if we're all fan that does'nt mean we can afford to have the same chances to see Mika.

     

    Anyway I'm saddened to read that some of you believe we're trolling cuz we're not, we're sharing our experience in the hope that it will improve next time  :giveup:

    I am wondering why fans spending 10-12 hours in a queue can't find 15 minutes to sit down with a fan knowing how the website works to learn how to use it in an efficient way?

    Simply because that's how going to a show is supposed to work for commun of mortals??

     

    I personally do know how a forum work but come on it's not a thing anymore you need to adapt in order to include others fans!!... Because yes now we are mostly on social medias and forums as good as they used to be aren't a thing anymore.

    As Deb explained Mika is the owner of this website. He pays for the domain. Only Mika can close it if he wants. But I don't think he will do it because some random unhappy fans want it to be done. I think it would be more beneficial to make a peace with MFC and take advantage of informations posted here.

    "some random unhappy fan" how petty of you to call non-MFCers like that... And okay Mika pays for the domain, but how does it give you the right to do everything you want?? Really I don't get this kind of explanation it's just to easy to blame it on all on the big boss instead of being yourself responsible.

     

    Peace with the MFC? Yes I'm in, but you should know that it has to work in both ways, don't force people to register on it if they're not at ease with forums, go where they are, you already are, now what's left is to share all the infos there in order to include every fans.

    Hello, I was at Bercy too and thanks to your "little settlement" made behind the scenes without MFC-outsiders knowing  I felt like I've waited an entire day for nothing even though I've arrived at a reasonable hour early in the morning and could have get a chance to be front row.

    I don't know where you get the number 60 from, as we just had 39 fans in the group that entered early. We handed out wristbands, so we know how many entered. As I said in my previous post, yes, a number of the fans who entered early have seen Mika many times before, and were, in fact, already queuing from early that morning. But a number of the other fans had never seen Mika before, or had never been front row before.

    We heard the number 60 from people waiting to get in the stands who came to warn us to didn't expected front row because another queue was being made for MFCers. But 39 or 60 whatever the exact number was, it was enough for regular queuers not to be front row in front of the stage. Oh wait... there were crumbs left at both extremities of the scene, but not with a correct view so yeah I'd rather had a confortable 3rd row at the middle of the stage than that. 

     

    Now about the people presents in that VIP-queue, yes I saw some of them which maybe weren't at every shows (woow a few lucky people to pretend it's a very fair system) but the biggest problem it that people who were never spotted in the regular queue and people who were supposed to be in the stands  have jumped on that opportunity to be front-row without any considerations for others who have been waiting all day in hope to have a good place for once.

    I organized the group the way I did at the suggestion of Mika's team. I'm not sure how I would have said, "No, the MFC fans don't want early entry for this show." :dunno:

    Don't get me wrong I've no doubt that it cames from a good intention but, what I don't get is that at every show there's a list of queuers in order of their arrival. Why didn't you simply used it?? I would have been fairer and would have spared you making a list with mostly MfCers. But after all, what can we expect when the same people who started that list are among the first to leave without any explanations for a more advantaging queue....That's precisely why we feel betrayed and even if you pretend the contrary it really made it looks like you're privilegied.

     

    Because as Rozy said :

    Many fans from the fandom only follow the MFC on social media because it's simply more accessible, especially as fans are becoming increasingly younger. Just posting a story or a time-limited post about events/invitations would suffice. 

    So yes I'm registered it just in case, but since you're also now on social medias which are way easier to use than a forum, why whould I struggle with that huge website when you could just have post a link of your list on others platforms??

     

    I really hope that in the future, this kind of thing will be organised in a fairer-way and that whatever what kind of Mika fan we are we get the same chance to enjoy his wonderful shows.

    Aww I don't know for you, but in my case the mix Mika+paint is an explosive mixture for my little heart :wub2:

    So imagine what it will be doing to me the mix: ectract of "Staring at the Sun"+painted Mika :swoon::stretcher:

     

    Moreover, this second advertising with the extract of "Staring at the Sun", start to make me things if they weren't a clue for the new single :fisch:Imagine for the Valentine's day, it will be so lovely :mikalove:*yeah yeah I keep dreaming wide awake:aah:*

    Good Guys - song and lyrics discussion

    Thanks a lot for lyrics, when I heard the full song whith orchestra... :wub2: (nothing to say ! He's a GENIUS !)

    Ok, I'm not crazy, he said "Gay guys gone" :mf_rosetinted:

    I think he said that like a joke, but no.(I know, I'm a stupid girl. Sorry)

    I've got shiver during all song, and the chorus was awesome !

    That's incredible...

    Don't worry I was thinking the same when the first time I saw this sentence wrote everywhere XD But today when I was listening to the 3rd time at the song, and reading some stuffs about it here I suddendly realized that he's serious :aah:

     

    I guess Mika was very inspired when he was writing the song, I'm curious to know how that lyrics came up to his mind, but I agree with Emeline he must be a GENIUS:mf_rosetinted:

    I hope some of those popular guys are still alive and might take notice of the song, along with their fans or friends.

    I can't wait to hear the whole song. It has the potential to be a huge hit, from the bit I've heard of it, from the X Factor performance.

    Yeah I'm totally agree, many times I heard people said that it will be a perfect single :) And yet we don't know the full album version, so we still have a full other part to discover :wub2:

     

    @Statue_Of_Liberty Aww thanks a lot for the lyrics!!! :D:wub2:

    Mika @ Rochefort Summer Sound Festival in Rochefort, France - 6 August 2015

    in Before the Show

    Posted

    Daamn... I already have plans for that time!! :doh:And the worst ever is that I have family near to Rochefort (like 10-15mns) :huh:

     

    But hopefully that's just a festival and it isn't the more interestful moment for seeing Mika for me. I mean, that it will not be as long as a real concert with only Mika:teehee: I hope XD

     

    Anyway have fun, because Mika and his band missed to me so much :huglove:

    Mika's fourth album- end of 2015?

    in Mika's Music and Artwork

    Posted

    I don't heard what it says in the title and I really hope that it won't be that ^^

     

    But with The Voice and X-Factor, ok it's a good idea for promotion but seriously even if I watch The Voice (only for Mika XD) I hope that he won't go on for the next season because he don't have much time to do some better work.

    Look, we were suppose to have a single in the end of January and we still don't have more news about that...

    But with the nexts gigs (Montreal, Tokyo and Osaka) I have some hope that we will have at least one more song, just one I don't care but please I need something, 30 seconds of an extract not enough for me, it's good sure, but not enough.

     

    I'm ok if Mika takes time to release his album, more time on it better it will be :P but I need some solid stuff of it (a full song for example x))
