sparkly1 Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 some great pics and accounts guys, I have a few group MFC flag pics too but I aint got em off my camera yet as I havn't had the time. Well here is MY account of the days events. got up in good time, spent too long getting ready so had to drive to the train station like a loony on speed cursing how we were gonna miss the train and it would all be my fault. Dumped the car in a street as it was the exact time the train was to leave and legged it with massive cases and st0ofs across the road over the foot bridge up the station and to the platform nearly having a heart attack and realizing that I must join a gym again. It was with complete joy and relief to find out our train was 6 mins late or we would have missed it and it would have cost us not only the 120 quid train fares already but more than double that each to have had to get the next train. We had fun on the train listening to Mika through our mp3 players while I tried to calm my heart rate down lol. (oh we saw Daisy Lou on the platform too as she was also going, but she was in a different carriage). We arrived at Kings Cross at about 12.30 legged it to buy an Oyster and made our way to the Bebo office off Carnaby street to pic up the gig tickets Vix had won doing her lollipop girl dance thing for that. The girl gave us the tickets and said wait here a min (we were hoping she might come back and say she could have the the FULL prize of dancing with Mika onstage and meeting them all or even just VIP but that was not to be she just said it's ok thats all). So we got the tube to Parsons Green to my sons sess pit...er I mean student flat where we were gonna be sleeping after the gig. so that took a while and we walked to his flat after we got on and off a few tubes to get there. We got changed etc I went to make myself a cup of tea and changed my mind when I saw a pan of manky brown water near his sink with a sock half in half out :puking:and text him saying "thank you for leaving us some sock stew but we have already eaten" he was confused about this comment at the time lol. anyway we legged it back on a few tubes to Hammersmith and tried to dart across the road when we saw the Apollo and Mika's name and just as we arrived Jemms said "it's been cancelled" and I could tell by the mascara running down her face that she was not fibbing me, his manager was still there getting arms ful of goodies for Mika off the fans and we had just missed his phone call (dam and drat it). It was an odd feeling, sorta despondent, it's like you know it's true but you don't want to believe it and I kept thinking sooner or later they would announce he was miraculously better and it would all be fine. so stood around meeting MFCers some I had met before some I hadn't, I remember feeling really sorry for Caz cos I had seen him at 3 fantastic gigs already in the past week or so and this was her only one this tour and that she had managed to get to be nearish to the front too. Anyway the band came out we had pics with them (I thought it was hilarious when Caz was having her pic with Luke and he went on tip toes to be even bigger, made me giggle out loud lol). Had pics with quite a few of the MFC signed teh MFC flag had pics with it. Chatted to Saranayed and vix told her how she is doomed where Mika competitions are concerned cos she has won 2 and 1st one they messed up the dates so she couldn't go and 2nd one they changed the prize after she had won then it was postponed she's lovely Saranayed, like Cherisse, a really sweet person. In fact they all seem such canny folks. Anyway after quite some time and some pics later and smirkiing to myself when the glow sticks fella just snapped all his glow sticks then wondered why all the Mika's fans were walking off, then looked up to see the big POSTPONED sign (sorry it just made me smirk) well then everyone was walking towards teh pub and since I don't know London well I thought Vix and I would go back to the sess pit....I mean my sons student flat (remember the Young Ones? well it's just like that in there), anyway we went back to see my son as I hardly ever see him now he lives in London and we went to a pub for a some fewds and a drinkie. Yeah it felt really bad that Mika had HAD to cancel and I know he wont have done it lightly, I did well not to get upset and to make use of the now spare time by spending it with my son. I did consider hunting down Mikas house but it was dark and London is big place lol. (nah not really). As has been said, the blow was lessened by the tactful way it was handled, the notice going up, the personal message on the phone (that I just missed grrrrr hope someone DOES post it), the band coming out to chat to us and have pics, all that helped ease the pain. I don't mind if Mika doesn't perform 100% spot on every gig cos every gig I have been to has been special for different reasons and I just love the atmosphere. (wish I could have been to the 2 where he brought out the little Mika-giggle bear we gave him though, has anyone got any pics, vids etc on this cos we weren't there). Also I would rather not see him at all than see him suffering with his health at a gig because he puts soooo much effort into his performances that it's not surprising that occasionally it gets the better of him when his immunity is down. Both Vix and I have got lergies from all the queueing for hours in the cold then going into hot places and jumping bout like loonies then queueing outside again in the cold, it's just THAT time of year aint it. That reminds me, In February..... it might SNOWWWW!!!!!!! ps pix to follow maybe tomorrow or firday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackiexx Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 The story in four pictures: how nice was that !! i saw a photo that lily allen's show was among all gay nights. I think she is gay, she just doesn't want to admit it. Kate Nash is gay too. That's why they keep whining and cursing their boyfriends. I think they'd make a very sweet gay couple and live happily together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne84 Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Wow! I didn't think you could see me in those group pictures as I was in the background and there were taller people in front of me... But you can actually see my eyes if you look closely. I didn't speak to the band members excluding Luke because there were so many people there. I'm not the kind of a person who keeps pushing until she gets what she wants. I wish I was braver. I wanted them all to sign my DVD, but I only got Luke to do it, because he was there first. Oh well, there will always be next time. I got a pic with Luke and had a great conversation about Finland - twice actually. He said that he loves Finland and he's been to Helsinki!

Shari Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Personally, I think he looks as though he's enjoying his job far too much. I'm surprised he didn't get lynched! Or at least not let down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Becky Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I just read Mika's new blog (about tickets going on sale again)... Does that mean the original tickets aren't valid? EDIT: THey're sold out.. Ignore me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaniCaz Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I just read Mika's new blog (about tickets going on sale again)... Does that mean the original tickets aren't valid? i was wondering that myself, but they SHOULD be valid. the gig was postponed - not cancelled. Maybe some people have refunded already and need seats filled up or something. EDIT: this is CazGirl here. If you want to know why im signed in as this, see my signature and then look in the chinwag section! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
