Marianne84 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Yeah, my mum wants to go as well and I'm brainwashing her into going to Mika's gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B!anka Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Would be great meeting you too. I may have a new Mika doll by then. If I do, I'll take it with me! It'll need to see a gig of his Mastah/ model too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne84 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 It'll need to see a gig of his Mastah/ model too! Of course! Like Mini Mika; he was sitting and dancing on my lap or shoulder most of the gig at Sadler's Wells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne84 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Hmm... According to Wikipedia this venue holds 2000-3000. Could be one of the smallest concerts of the tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 So I've looked at flights and hotels and I've decided that yes, I'm going, because I'm that insane. What are student loands for, if not to spend on seeing Mika abroad? And I know I'll feel so guilty about spending so much money that I'll make myself get a job. Sorted!

So you've found the thread! Well...I for the one...I chose Vienna because it's the closest to Romania and besides my mum has always tried to make me go to Vienna because she says it is a beautiful city but I;ve never wanted...and told her I'll go there when Mika has a gig...so... And it's quite cheap for me and won't stay too much in Vienna either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's quite cheap for me and won't stay too much in Vienna either! Yeah I'm just gonna stay the one night, but my flight gets in really early so I can have a look around in the morning and head down to the gig after I check in. And the pre-sale is at 8am, which is brilliant because if I have a lecture at 9, I won't miss out on the pre-sale, but I don't know when my lectures are yet. OHH GOSH. Does anyone know of any hotels close-ish to the venue? I have no clue about this city, so maybe some locals could give a helping hand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'ma look for some now...apparently I'm more concerned about the Paris at the moment for some reason. Oh great for you! your 8 am will be 10am for me: I will be at school and my mum will take care of this issue from work! crazy! I'm a bit more concerned about the language...tbh.

Marianne84 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 I have decided to go to Vienna! I need to find a place to stay from the 27th to 30th. Now, where else should I go? I want to see at least two gigs on this tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marianne84 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 That's the time I was thinking of spending there too! Great, we could be in the same hotel then. I've read that everything is within a walking distance in Vienna. It would be great to find a hotel near the gig venue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marianne84 Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 The venue looks beautiful by the way. All the venues I have seen Mika before have been so modern. This will make a change! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose Paris will be a lot busier, and April is supposed to be a really nice time to visit so there will be a LOT of tourists there. Ahh, I couldn't possibly tell my mother I'm going to Vienna to see Mika, she'd murder me. I am *kind of* concerned about the language barrier, but I tend to be all right with picking up a few phrases. I'll just have to study a phrasebook before I go and hope I can get by. I'm so excited!!

Yeah that's what it said in the guide book when I went to Paris. I know nothing of German, and even less of Austrian, so God only knows how I'll get by. .numberOfAdults=1&tab=photos&arrivalDate=29-03-2010&hotelId=256281#photos"]This hotel is across the road from the venue. It's £53 per night (the cheapest I found was £49 and it's closer) so for one night I think I can make myself at home here. It's a little bit s****ier than what I'm used to, XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellody Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 austrian basically is just german with a dialect, only a few different words - it's a bit like british vs. american english. but you should be fine in vienna with english. i like vienna, have great memories of all the concerts i went to there (take that and some other boybands). not sure if i'm going to this though, depends on who else is going where and on flight prices.
