AHHH, and how could I forget?! To get themselves pumped before the show backstage, Mika and the band formed a little circle and did a clapping version of what (I think?) turned out to be the trashcan-rhythm intro to Lollipop! So cute! <3

Agreed! And absolutely! There is NO WAY I will ever miss a Philly Mika concert!! (Heck, when I have enough moolah, I am TOTALLY traveling to see him as well <3)

 

Also, I know I offered this time, but a standing offer for all of you: My house is ALWAYS open to Mika fans, so if you'd rather chill with me instead of shelling out for a hotel, you are totally welcome! :) So just keep it in mind :D

Yes, it didn't look like a glowing penis at all :teehee: no seriously, when you guys all pointed towards him, it was a neat effect and I think he reacted to it. I was about 20 feet to your left and 12 feet behind you. I could see Zoe's head.

So good idea!

This is WHY I so LOVE GA shows!!!! Nothing can compare to the experience!!! Seated venues are great if you don't like to queue . . . but for those of us who make it a day long par-tay it is SO much fun!!!! And as long as a show is GA - there is NO WAY IN HELL I am not going to be on the front row! But, everyone already knows that!!!! This was the quickest 15 hours of my LIFE! :naughty:

 

Thank you SO much for extending that offer to the MFC! It is SO kind of you - and I am sure that someone will take that offer one day and appreciate it SO MUCH! You are too kind!!! :huglove:

Arrived at 11:00ish and found HollyD and the crew there. Waiting in the cold wasn't all that bad. Got front & center access for a great show. Concert was terrific; I was disappointed at the level of personal connection Mika made....not a lot of conversation with the audience / no hand slapping...is he a germ-a-phobe? Would go again but I think I'd like to be back a little further to get a more panoramic view...instead of the 'under the chin' view.

 

The stage was WAY too high!!!! That was the problem! I have NEVER seen a show and the stage was THAT high - it was CRAZY!!!! But what a view :das:
