  1. He does!! It looks even more heavily bandaged here than it did in his story
  2. It truly looks like a fairy tale. I hope they will share little bits and pieces from the performance!!
  3. I just looked it up, he’s 32! I can only do one-liners to Mika, after that my brain is on holiday and the only thing I can do is grin like a goon (This is much better than before, because I couldn’t say anything at all at first! I am making progress!)
  4. Thank you so much for that photo, it’s my favourite! And he was actually very open and friendly, despite wanting to leave. I am very sure you could’ve taken a picture with him as well. Little more : I have sent the drawing to Manuelito’s management, it should be there any day now ☺️
  5. Hmmm, I think he’s in Italy, hurt his finger because it got wedged between something (maybe when he jammed the lid of the grand piano, because he wrote a song out of pure frustration? ) and uses it as an excuse for not having to extensively cook
  6. Sweet, right?? And you know what? It’s the first time I actually spoke to him… and I’m so proud I did not faint!
  7. Sooo what could Mika possibly be doing? I think I know! He is STILL trying to “de-confetti-fy” himself after Verona…!!!! Other than that I think he will (unfortunately) keep relatively quiet on social media until at least next week… anything he will post will maybe be criticized, since he would actually be touring right now… I hope he will keep in touch with us after that though. I really like his posts and updates on what he’s doing! I think it’s sweet he keeps us in the loop ☺️
  8. In Verona we were able to speak with Mika after the rehearsals (the day before the concert). I told him that I’m glad he liked our virtual fan action with the flowers, his answer: “Yes I did [like it], I thought it was really sweet!” Here is the video: IMG_2533.MOV
  9. Yes! It was a pass exclusive for those who were going to help with the huge fan action as organized by @Serenamiglio_, for us to enter the venue earlier.. but as previously told, we entered the venue at the exact same time as the others at 7pm so now it’s just a nice souvenir and actually never had a purpose
  10. Oh @Anna Ko Kolkowska, I absolutely loved reading your review, I lived the entire evening again through your eyes ❤️ And your view was very similar to mine!!
  11. Has anyone else noticed the numerous cameras before, during and after the gig? I really hope that it was filmed and will be brought out as a full concert. Arena di Verona is a very special location and it would explain why he went extravagant and also why production did the “good guys” action. I know he has filmed many things before without it being brought out, but one can hope it would certainly make the fans who couldn’t go to Italy, incredibly happy!
  12. I think so too. I actually think he even paid on top of it to make it as spectacular as it was!
  13. Oh it was so sweet of Elisa to join us and give us a behind the scenes! And yes, she seems to be one of us it’s so nice to hear from people working close to him what a kind man he is and what a (her words) musical genius he is. (Of course we already knew this, but we do have our pink fan-glasses on ) And I became a fan of Elisa in the process! I really love her energy!! What I forgot to add to my report: although I did really enjoy the grandeur of it all, I also really appreciate Mika on a small stage with just the band and optionally some light effects. Pretty much exactly one year before the Verona gig, I saw him for the very first time in Salle Pleyel (18th of September 2021) in a much smaller and almost intimate setting. I have to honestly say that I enjoy both settings equally, because I come for Mika. And both shows have him and his vibe in there. As long as I can see and feel his vibe, I’m a happy camper 😊
  14. I think the whole “apply before September 7” was to see how many would be interested in going to the Verona gig and to convert it into a concert ticket. Otherwise they couldn’t have possibly known. It would however be correct if they would then send another email to inform people about extending the deadline. Or maybe just an email like you said where it is automatically refunded. I also don’t understand why they would with Rome and not the others. It’s a concert by Friends and Partners just like the others. Except for the theatre concert in Milan, that one was organized by Showbees.
  15. It would be easy to spot, because his entry would say “so I said….” If this is his encrypted way to say he wants a mug I understand why we have such extensive song discussion threads
  16. What I also found really sweet, was that he commented under the IG Live the MFC did right before the gig in Verona ❤️
  17. Oh, and this is not really Mika related, but also happened that evening: as we were waiting with all MFCers, Manuelito actually came out of the restaurant earlier. He was at the concert, had dinner with Mika and left before Mika did. Beatrice actually encouraged me to walk up to Manuelito and tell him about the portrait I had done of him earlier this year. I was hesitant at first, but decided that I would regret it if I wouldn't do it. So thanks to Beatrice, we spoke with him. He was very patient and kind with us, you wouldn't think he is a celebrity at all. And know what? He actually remembered the drawing very well!! He asked me if he could have the original and gave me the address of his management. I actually couldn't believe that was happening!! As a hobby artist I do hope for recognition sometimes, but I never would've thought that one of my subjects would actually want to have the drawing!! My evening got even better because of it!
