    I miss the days when it was possible to decide at the last minute that you cross the borders of three countries to see your favourite musician live, when all you had to do was to buy a bus ticket, book a hotel room and enjoy the trip... :making-a-wish:

      Even the discomfort like sleeping on a bus and waking up so tired but you don't really care (or you do but not for a long time :teehee:),because you arrived at a new destination... Even these little things.

      @teenagedreamer98 Me too, concerts and travels are the things that give me the most joy, that I always look forward to and that make me happy for many days...  :emot-sad: I know there are bigger problems, at least I can see the majority of my family because I live with them so I'm not alone but I really miss these things. I miss the excitement, the tiredness, the anticipation, the planning, all of it.

      @Mikasister I also have a concert ticket that I bought in 2019 for March 2020, the show was postponed to March 2021 and now again to March 2022... :facepalm:

  5. SOS, please, are there any fans who ordered the I Love Beirut T-shirt from https://shop.virginemi.com/mika/?

    I've paid for it on the 11. 9. I didn't receive it until now. Today the store charged me AGAIN. They charged the amount from my credit card today at night. I've already paid for the T-shirt and I didn't even get a shipping confirmation and now I have to pay once more? Does that happen to anybody else?

      @silver I've already ordered there once and back then I've paid immediately even though it still took a few days till the order has been dispatched... They probably realized they won't have the T-shirts in stock for a while so they decided to charge the money later but it would be nice to let me know because once I've got the payment confirmation and I've seen the amount on my bank account as blocked, I haven't checked afterwards if the payment was made for real. I know booking.com does that sometimes when they want to check if the client has enough money to pay the stay but I've never experienced that with a store.

      @silver I've checked my bank account again and it seems that they actually cancelled the payment from September and they charged it today. But I haven't noticed back then because in September, we were buying quite a lot of things... However, they could at least inform the customers that they will charge them later because I was sure I've already paid in September.

  9. Ohhh @giraffeandyI love your profile pic. Did you draw it?

  10. You think that love's a joke, but there ain't too much to laugh at

    and it's all for show, should I keep my ticket after

    or should I just go? When you're begging for attention

    once the crowd goes home and there's no one left to listen. 

     

  11. My phone just reminded me today that tomorrow I should leave for Verona... :crybaby:

      @Anna Ko Kolkowska I was going to take a bus or a train (but the bus was probably the cheapest option). However, I waited till May for the new schedule so then I didn't buy the ticket anymore. I just had to cancel my reservation for the B&B on booking.com but I didn't pay anything in advance.

  12. Today my friend was supposed to travel to Barcelona and together tomorrow  go to Carcassonne for Mika's gig on Tuesday, from there we returned to Barcelona to take a plane   :plane:   and travel to La Coruña for the  second gig on the 30th and then return and on August 1 go to that wonderful place in Cap Roig for the last Mika's gigs for us this summer but the damn virus ruined absolutely all our illusions  :crybaby::crybaby:   as I suppose it ruined the illusions of many fans who went to one of his summer gigs. :tears:

      I had so many plans for Summer too, July in Mallorca, August in Verona, seeing Mika, a trip to Lago di Garda... Unfortunately, none of this is happening now. Also I love the sea and I won't see it at all this year which really hurts. Summer is by far my most favourite part of the year. Yersterday I saw on Twitter the exhibition in Saint-Tropez with Mika's photo. It hit me harder than I thought because I've been there last year, in the exact same place, having the best Summer with my family. But I don't want to be ungrateful, these are not the biggest problems of today's world. It still hurts though and sometimes I can't help myself, it makes me sad. It is what it is, I guess...

  13. Challenge of the day: How many Mika CDs (including bonus CDs, live CDs etc.) can you play in one day? :biggrin2:

  14. Today I had a terrible nightmare... One of those that feels so real! :tears: It was about Mika being on an event with about 50 other famous people on a boat. Then the boat got lost and people were assuming it sank for some reason. I felt so miserable in the dream, I even cried, then I woke up and was so relieved it's not true but I think I will need a while till I get rid of that bad feeling... Luckily Mika won't be on a boat anytime soon.

      @Mikasister Yeah, the reality is a nightmare already...

       

      Even though it's hard, I think it's a good idea, it's better to be safe than sorry...

       

      Btw, the night before I had a dream I made it to Mallorca (I should have spent two weeks in July over there) but I had to take a bus, a boat, a train and I think one another vehicle because the planes didn't fly... The virus was still a topic but it wasn't as bad anymore. Not the greatest dream ever but at least much better than the one I dreamed tonight...

      @Starlight Yes, I have no idea why my brain came up with such a horrible story, I usually have rather good or neutral dreams thanks god! But I guess maybe the whole situation now produce some negative feelings that your brain proceeds at night... I don't know but it was by far the worst nightmare I had lately, I hope it was the last one too.

      @Mikasister Exactly, I was so positive about 2020, Mika on tour, so many good things coming and now this... :emot-sad: It's so unreal, I feel like I have to wake up one day from this nightmare but I won't... And it's getting worse. I'm so sorry for Spain and Italy, this summer I was going to have a holiday with my family on Mallorca and also planning to go to Verona to see Mika and now it breaks my heart what's happening in both countries I love...

      I'm really trying hard to stay high and the last week I was still feeling quite optimistic but now there are just more and more bad news and it seems like there's no light at the end of the tunnel... I was so excited for this summer, my favourite part of the year and now all my plans are gone.

  22. Even though it's a bit sad, it's also very rare to see Prague without tourists so I kind of appreciate some of these pictures... https://www.seznamzpravy.cz/clanek/par-minut-do-karanteny-cele-zeme-tak-to-vypadalo-v-centru-prahy-93271?seq-no=1&dop-ab-variant=&source=clanky-home

      Btw, I also noticed that some countries in the Central Asia are missing like Kazakhstan, I guess they were still part of Russia back then so also don't forget about these, kids! :naughty:
