    Some of my Twitter friends (Hi @mariposa :bye:) are fans, that's how I know who they are. :naughty: Without that, I wouldn't know either. 😅

     

     

    They don't have that many more followers than Danna Paola, and she has a lot of teenage fans as well, I think. I don't know how likely Danna's followers were to buy tickets for the Beirut gig, but if we assume that the difference to the BTS followers isn't big, the 15$ less might have made a difference. Plus the followers of Mika, Rufus, Laura and Kylie, who are not that many and maybe not as likely to watch a livestream as the teenagers, but if they do, they have no problem

    to buy a ticket.

     

    If you mean by followers, "instagram followers", they don't represent fans who are willing to buy tickets. BTS are really huge in the US, they have young fans, mainly girls. But I would be glad to be wrong :excite:🥰

    In the interview he explicitly spoke about the whole world. If you count all the followers of him and his guests together it's millions, so I can well imagine that they might have reached one million.

     

    How much were tickets for the BTS gig, does anyone know?

    I don'y know, we saw the views on youtube, it was around 60 000, maybe it didn't show all the views, but I would be really surprised if they reach 700 000, like :excite:. For BTS concert the ticket costs $25, but it's BTS the biggest boys band currently

    Yes, Amy, I will stay all night to watch the concert> It's better than queueing for 10 hours in the cold :lol3: :lol3:

    I am lost with all these time zone abreviations.

    If you try to book a ticket the time will appear accoring to your time zone.

    So I know that US concert will start at 3am CET.

    Yes you are right, and I guess if you buy a ticket for AUSTRALIA, NEW ZEALAND & ASIA, you can watch the concert Sunday at noon

    Ow, I see me on this pics… I hate that but it's the price to pay for the first row, I suppose… So, so… It's time to return at the normal life… and it's hard… 😢

      But the happiness is still there and the possibility of remembering too. I think I will already make a review, since I don't want to think of anything else now. And I just LOVE writing reviews. 

     

    Last night was my fifth Mika's gig, and the first since 2015. It was already important just for that. But for me, it was even more : it was the first time I was alone, without my parents for an evening, after years of weakness and panic attacks. Because of that, I could never make what I wanted to. But this night opens a new chapter and it's why I can't make this review without some personnal stuffs. 

     

    I was there at 9 a.m, thanks to my father who drove me, and I had a very good number, so I was happy. But honestly, it was completely cold there. I just felt frozen all the day and I thought I was crazy at least 10 times. Well, that said, the Rockhal is probably one of the best spot for waiting before a show. Not only because we are protected from the rain (yes, because there was some rain) but also because there is different cafés and food and a big market center where we could go when the cold became a problem. And it was very good for my father too, since he could shop and even go at the cinema in the day (this day was obviously a big sacrifice for him since he wasn't at the show. My family is the best ❤️). They really thought about us fans. 

    I waited alone. I think I saw some of you, but I'm not good in making acquaintance and I didn't dare talk to you or anybody else. I'm autistic, and it was always a problem for me, since I don't even really know HOW to make it. But I appreciated the hour I spent with some of you (very probably) just before the doors open. You were so nice and I had some regrets at this point.  Maybe I will be more confident at Strasbourg… 

     

    In any case, it was worthing the waiting. 

     

    Like often, the doors opening was just a big rush with the numbers' organisation chaotically dispersed with some running people and some ticket's and security checks' problems. It was to the point I loose my wallet on the floor, but fortunately, someone noticed it and helped me. It was so nice because we were all running for the best possible place, and she stopped for help. I found this really nice and I'm very grateful because if I really loose my papers and cards, it would have been terrible. If you're there,  THANK YOU !

    I hope she/you had a great place despite of me...

     

    As for me, I had a great view of the scene. First row, before ths advancing scene (a little on the right). I perfectly saw practically all, and I was very happy with this spot. Then started the most difficult moment of the day for me : between the tiredness, the cold, all the people (whose I didn't know, at this time I loose even the other fans I was waiting with… ), my old demons and the weakness were coming again. At this moment, it was hard, and I was honestly afraid I could'nt make it. Plus I had an headache because of the cold. But I managed to calm down. I felt bad even for the Charlotte's gig (I found it good anyway, for what I could focus on) but at the second Mika appeared… I felt nothing bad anymore. Just happiness. Even my headache disappeard. Just like that !  

    When I say Mika is a médicine… 🤣

     

    And now, the show itself… So, what can I say ? It was my first Revelation Tour's date and it was absolutely wonderful. For me who saw that for the first time… I never looked at any videos, only some photos, just for this day. It was pure magic. This show was amazing ! 

    I'm in love with the live arrangements of the songs. Ice Cream, Dear Jealousy, Platform Ballerinas and Stay High are great in live. Tomorrow was amazing ! It's already one of my favorites on the album, but in live… It was so good ! I think it will be one of my favorites in live now. And Tiny Love and Paloma were just perfect. I really like very much those songs in live, especially Paloma with this flying piano. In general case, I love so much when Mika is playing piano, but this thing is just amazing. It's simple in one sense, but very poetic and beautiful. Like the color-themed songs. And it's probably what makes this show as magic : we're entering another world, where all seems possible. I really liked the new arrangements of Love Today, Relax and Happy Ending, too. This last particulary. This a capella part… :cloud:

    Underwater is still one of my favorites in live. Not only I LOVE when Mika sings it, but this without-a-word final, just the music, where everybody follows him and sings is one of the best moments of this show for me. 

     

    I was so happy to see Mika again... Especially since I was in the front row. Nothing is better than this communion, this little contact we can have with him there. I will never abandon it as soon I can survive all this. I love so much seeing him with such proximity. 

    He seemed happy and full of energy and offered us a great show. It's all I can say. He was just excellent last night. He made me laugh more than one time and smile at each second of the gig. Only now, I fully realise how much I missed him. 

     

    Some random things I remember particulary : 

     

    He once again took Max with him in the audience and asked where his bassist were. Poor Max, I didn't even say him in the crowd 😂

     

    For Elle Me Dit, he took one fan with him on the scene after she asked him if she could dance with him (maybe she's here… "M from Metz" Good play, I would never dare making this !) and it was so nice. Plus, I found this girl so good for that, it was really pleasant to see Mika and her together. He gave her one "dance lesson" and we started to dance with them. It was a great moment😊

     

    I appreciated how he talked about his songs and all kind of stuffs, sometimes funny… 

     

    There was a little child next to me, who was fan and knew all the songs. It was so cute. :wub2:

     

    One funny thing was when I saw this poor security staff keeping his serious face even when one of the final's big balloon came and jumped on his head. Poor guy…  :roftl:

     

    We were so loudly than my dad, who was outside, could hear all the songs, but also our screams and all. He could even make them hear at my mum by the phone. WE. ARE. THE. BEST. 

     

     

     

    It was so good… I'm still on my cloud and don't want to come down.  It really ended too quickly. So quickly I pratically cried when it was over. I'm so happy I will return in two weeks ! 

     

    But this time, I fully appreciated it. I thought I fully appreciated the previous ones, but in fact, now, I realise I could'nt because I kept one eye on my weakness at the same time. But not this time. This time I danced, sang and lived this gig like if I would die tomorrow. I never had such a free moment in all my life. For the first time, my health authorized me to "dance and sing like if nobody is watching", like Mika says. I was unleashed and totally happy, totally myself. I didn't care about anything for the first time.  And it was just so good. Thank you Mika. 

     

    He's the only one who can make this… 

     

    I didn't wait after the show. We had two hours of road after that, and I saw my dad was really tired now and since he was outside, he was cold. (plus, he's working today). I knew it wouldn't be before a long time, and I couldn't ask him to make that. He drove me, stayed at Luxembourg all the day alone, and waited for me, then he would drive me back for two hours. When I see it wasn't before 1 a.m, I understand I really couldn't impose him this. Plus, I would stay especially for have some signing (it's the last thing I don't have yet) so… I will try the next times, when we have less hours to road. He already made so much for me, and my mum too, when I couldn't go alone…

    I know I'm not limited anymore and can go where I want, I did the craziest (and best)  thing in my life, it was just perfect. I'm the happier in the world. Right now, I don't ask the life anything else. 

     

    Sorry, I filmed a little but my phone is really lame on this point, so I don't have any correct pictures… I'm really waiting yours for remember all those great moments… before the Strasbourg's gig.

    I remember Matt (Mathieu Tota)  Pokora from 2003 when he was in a talent show "Popstars". I still remember that he almost failed at one of the last steps. Then trainers gave him a last chance and he finished in a boysband issued from "Popstars". 

    I am not a fan, but as he has Polish origins I was interested in his career in the past. 

    Now he is an international star.

    But Mika is our international star!!!!!!! Les't vote for Mika!!!!!!

    He's not an international star, apart from french speaking countries, he is unknown. You can't absolutely compare him to Mika.
