neeve272 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 So, a few of us in the Irish thread have been discussing the idea of Mika coming to Ireland - he was here last summer as part of the Oxegen festival - and we want him to come back!!!! Granted, those of you who know me will realise that I don't really spend THAT much time here BUT I still want him to come here and of course I'll always make a trip back for Mika! When I met him in Madrid he told me that he'd love to do another gig in Ireland. When I mentioned this to other MFCers, a lot of people expressed interest, so here's our thread for discussions, plans, ways of getting the message to Meeks that he has support here and that we want him here again! Anyone who's interested, join up!!!! For Mika: MIKA COME TO IRELAND! WE'LL GIVE YOU A LEPRECHAUN WELCOME, WE'LL DO AN IRISH JIG UNDER THE RAINBOW, AND, BEGORRA BEGORRA, WE'LL GIVE YA A POT OF GOLD! To continue: My favourite radio presenter here, [Ray Foley on Today FM] arranges small intimate gigs in Dublin for about 20-50 fans of artists (they've already had James Blunt, Kate Nash, Tom Baxter and the like) and I know that this presenter also really likes Mika so I'm trying to convince him to get Mika....I've emailed a few times and now other MFCers have emailed him too, lol. I think this would be the most feasible way of getting Mika to come here at the moment. The gigs he arranges are called Live Lunch (you can find info at http://todayfm.com/Article.asp?id=563133 ) and to get in, you have to go on the webpage and tell him why you should be allowed to go...I know, I'm getting ahead of myself here; number 1 is to get Mika to come here first!!! Update: I just received this email from the producer and co-presenter of the radio show: Hi Niamh, We would love to have Mika on a live lunch but unfortunately the ‘when’ of it stays with his promoters and record company. Once they set up a tour / live date we will request him. And in turn we will announce it on the radio if our application for a live lunch is accepted. This is the way all guests are booked and even though an artist may want to tour Ireland he would often have to wait until his promoters schedule it in. Be assured we will keep you informed if he does sign up for a live lunch – until then there isn’t any more we can do. Thanks for listening and emailing All the best Adelle Ray’s Producer. So, looks like we first need to get Mika to do a gig here anyway, then he can sign up for a Live Lunch too!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
