lilmot Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 THank you for the "short" report, Sariflor..... can't wait for the BIG one. You know how we are.....always wanting more. Seriously, thanks for reporting even when you were so tired. I'm glad it was such a good one for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norwalk174 Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Basically what happenned was that at one point he jumped off the stage and came down to the "floor area", he went off a bit to the right hand side, and at that point I thought that it was a good picture occasion....so I was looking down fiddling with my camera trying to get the zoom right,when I noticed someone grabbing my arm and kind of pulling...Mika had come back from the other side, and decided that it was a good idea to use my arm as a "platform" to lift himself up onto the inside of the barrier that we were leaning on. How cheeky . It all happenned very fast but when I looked up I just saw him there, right in front of me, hahaha!! Then all hell broke loose, because he was standing right there "on top" of us at the barrier a few hands went straight to his chest and belly (and who knows where else!! ) and I must admit that mine also sort of reached out (BY ITSELF OF COURSE!) to touch his chest. I blame it on a reflex,hehe...It was all wet and sweaty anyway and then my common sense came back so I pulled my hand back LOL. He then at some point went back onto the stage and continued singing. that sounds amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhotoJenic Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 P.S. Did I mention that I LOVE Mika??? He's just amazing, every new gig I go to, instead of getting tired of it, I want more. This is dangerous. It means that he is definitely doing something right if people don't get tired of it and that's great!! Thanks for the report.

I heard that it got filmed by Andy the cameraman, but I haven't heard any details about giving it to Mika. I'm sure he loved it....are there posts about him receiving it on other threads?

violet_sky Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I still think it's that Mika proposed to her. They will have a small ceremony on a hill in Scotland this coming spring. Everyone will dab their eyes with tartan hankies. Oh, that's awesome , I'll throw the rice... or whatever they throw in Scotland... Basically what happenned was that at one point he jumped off the stage and came down to the "floor area", he went off a bit to the right hand side, and at that point I thought that it was a good picture occasion....so I was looking down fiddling with my camera trying to get the zoom right,when I noticed someone grabbing my arm and kind of pulling...Mika had come back from the other side, and decided that it was a good idea to use my arm as a "platform" to lift himself up onto the inside of the barrier that we were leaning on. How cheeky . It all happenned very fast but when I looked up I just saw him there, right in front of me, hahaha!! Oh God, you crack me up! Hahahah, this is freaking hilarious! Picture occasion spoilt! Can he ever make up for that? I'm so happy you had SUCH a great time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzy Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Ok, I got home a short while ago and am absolutely knackered after driving to and back from Doncaster,so this will be a SHORT one.Sorry but I don't travel in the superbus and I had to actually keep the driving BF awake by being relatively "alive":sneaky2: Basically what happenned was that at one point he jumped off the stage and came down to the "floor area", he went off a bit to the right hand side, and at that point I thought that it was a good picture occasion....so I was looking down fiddling with my camera trying to get the zoom right,when I noticed someone grabbing my arm and kind of pulling...Mika had come back from the other side, and decided that it was a good idea to use my arm as a "platform" to lift himself up onto the inside of the barrier that we were leaning on.

I blame it on a reflex,hehe...It was all wet and sweaty anyway and then my common sense came back so I pulled my hand back LOL. He then at some point went back onto the stage and continued singing. Anyway, back to the gig: It was fantastic. I loved every second of it!! I personally enjoyed it more than Glasgow, and I think that also more than Dusseldorf. I just loved it! We had such a great position right in the middle of the front row, bang on infront of Mika. He had the piano looking at us, and it was so close too, that it just felt incredibly "close". I don't know, some gigs you just enjoy more than others,and I think that he was just sooo into it, I loved it. He did change things a bit like some have mentioned. Didn't do MM, but did a very good Sweet Dreams with Saranayde. I was never a fan of his SD and I may have to reconsider my views on that one, hehe!! It was actually great. He did the usual set, but the only missing thing was the encore: there was no coming back this time. He got Holy Johnny up on stage, where it was easy to tell that HJ is quickly becoming a "pro" and moves around the stage like it's his second home,LOL! It was funny. Ah and in Lollipop he asked xLaurenX on stage, as she was wearing an incredible Chew Chew outfit. I thought that it was a fantastic gig, the atmosphere was great, there wasn't any horrible pushing or anything like that, he seemed in great spirits although his throat seemed sore (and this is worrying me now) and the band were also their usual bubbly selves. Oh at some point "someone" threw a glowstick bracelet on stage and Martin wore it. Also, when Luke did the skeleton thing in LT, he actually came out to the front of the stage and "directed" the skeleton's hands towards us,the crowd. That was quite funny!! Anyway I have written more than I was planning on and I really need to go to bed, but I wanted to leave my little review here. I took a few good pics and a few videos but I am quite upset about their quality, as the settings were strange and I think I recorded them in a low quality mode or something. Anyway I will upload what I can. Oh and I took a pic of Andy/Richard/Samantha/Cameraman, but I think that he didn't like it cause he gave me a killer look and now I think that he hates me. Oh dear. Good night (or morning really) everyone. P.S. Did I mention that I LOVE Mika??? He's just amazing, every new gig I go to, instead of getting tired of it, I want more. This is dangerous. Wow! That's fabulous! Thank you for the details - So happy you had such an awesome time! i dont know if you know, but Mika got the quilt and he said it was phenomenal! got it on film too! Yay!

Angelic Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 My gig report from Doncaster last night ... I will echo sariflor's comments. It was such a good show! We spoke to Mika briefly afterwards, got some stuff signed - the shows are just coming along in leaps and bounds, you can see how they have changed (I hesitate to say "improved", because that will give the wrong impression of what I actually mean) since February this year ... the earlier shows were fab, but they are now adding more bits and pieces. Plus I have never seen Martin so animated! We did wonder if he'd had too much fizzy pop before coming on Such a good show - I think some of the intimacy from the earlier gigs has of course been lost - only to be expected as they start playing in bigger venues - but the performance is getting more and more polished. And as always, it was lovely to meet up with boardies who I haven't seen for a long time - my lovely friend Andi and Ali, Jodie, Freddie (who must have been boiling in his Santa suit!!!), and to meet Ruth, Bab, Sarah and anyone else I met last night and have now forgotten the name of (it's my age! ) I will leave it to others to fill in the details, but I just wanted to show my face again (some of you know me from when I joined, when this board first started in January) but I don't get on here much any more for various reasons. but I keep in touch with folks and still love Mika! so that's what counts. Enjoy the gigs, any of you still with gigs to come - ahh, Newcastle tomorrow - that's going to be so good. lots of love to all Gill xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
