SomethingOnMars Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 It was such an amazing gig. I know he said he was on more painkillers than his grandmother () But I didn't realise he was that hurt. Anyone know what happened? What a trooper, doing his amazing dancing and so full of energy. So thank you Mika for putting on such a great show and being such an inspiration!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louiza Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 Thanks for these latest reports! Love the pictures, too! Got a tweet from a guy who was there -- this is his video for Happy Ending: from vwayner: He says he'll have more in the next few days. this performance of Happy Ending is so beautiful, especially the "little bit of love" part:wub2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaMango Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) Photos Part 1. THE BIG SHOW! Here is the mighty 5 o'clock queue! Party time! Excellent! Look at these lucky puppies, they're practically ON the stage! I think this pic is so cute. Newcomer Pandasnacks is keeping her ticket safe in her mouth, and I believe Andrew is admiring her hair. Canuckchick and moi! OK, now time for the Big Girl photos. Just a reminder, I am very self conscious, and this was a very difficult thing for me to do. So while I don't mind you enjoying the photos here, I would ask that you don't post them anywhere else. Thanks. Here are all of the Vancouver Big Girls! Yasmine gives me a fresh coat of paint. I don't know guys, I think that neon war paint is a good look for me. That's all the BG pics I'll post for now. If anyone has any performance pics or vids, let me know! They were strict about backstage photos, so I don't have anything else to show you. My concert pics did not turn out well, because I had trouble finding a good place to stand after BG. I got pretty close to the front on the right side, but there were a lot of tall people in the way. This is the best I could do. Love this jacket. Jimmy! Gosh, he is such a dream boat. I had a very nice chat with him backstage, and he just has a way of making you feel good. I hope Mika tours with him again, especially if it's in a city near me. Dreamy times 2. That's it for concert photos. Part 2 comin' up. Edited October 31, 2009 by DaMango Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaMango Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) Photos Part 2. MEET AND GREET! Alrighty, the moment you've all been waiting for! (I think) Like I said in my review, we waited in a cold, dark, scary alley for Mika. We did not wait in vain, because his wonderful band mates came out to chat and hang with us for a while. I gave Jimmy a hug, and I told him that I enjoyed his playing, especially on BIOTG. It really stood out to me during the performance. He wished me luck on my own music, and posed with me for this cuddly picture. I don't think you can tell by the picture, but I'm hanging on to him pretty tightly, LOL! Cherisse and Imma! They are both such beautiful, talented, music goddesses. I adore them both. I told Cherisse that I took a photo with her 2 years ago, but I looked like a dork in it. She said she probably did too. (She totally didn't. LOL!) Luckily for both of us, we got a second chance at it. Mika's car pulled up, and he came outside a short while later. As I said in my review, I was delighted to see that he was wearing the badge I'd left for him backstage! I tried to get photos of him wearing it, but my camera went off too late in this one. It was covered up by the poster. I tried again, but this time, my flash made the badge unreadable. Oh well, his face is so cute, I just have to post this anyway. Shortly after this pic was taken, Mika doodled a face on my Munny doll, I harassed him about my music (politely, as always), and we talked a little bit more before he got into his car. It was weird seeing him drive away. I waved goodbye like I would see him again soon, but in reality, it will probably be a long time until we meet again. If we meet again. *sigh* Ok, now to show the "art work" on my Munny doll. I'll start with the signatures on the back. Jimmy insisted on signing the doll's bum, so I did not prevent him from doing so. LOL! Cherisse signed his big bald head. Ok guys, are you ready for this? Not quite what I was expecting, but here's Mika's handiwork on the front of the doll. BAM! Kinda scary, huh? My boyfriend (ever the jokester) said Mika drew the evil face on it because he hates me. What a jerk. Anyway, it was surprising, nonetheless. I am mad at myself for smearing the signature, but I'm going to tidy it up a bit with some nail polish remover. So yay, I have some original Mika art. What's even better, is that Munny dolls come with a "mystery accessory", which is wrapped in foil, so you don't know what it is until you buy it. My Munny came with, what else? An axe. Very fitting, I say. My precious lil' axe murderer. Anyway, I can't believe how many little details and memories keep flooding back to me. It was such a great night, and an experience I will never forget. I cherish the encouraging words from Mika's mom, and John, and how kind and lovely everyone was to the Big Girls. We were treated with respect, which helped me confront my fears and insecurities. I also appreciate all of you who were there, for being such wonderful friends. I can't wait to see you all again. AND, I know I'm a huge geek for dwelling on it, I'm so happy that Mika wore my badge! The reason I'm so happy is that I've been making them since my very first Mika show in June 2007, and to see it on his coat sort of brought closure to that crazy night. I even went back and read my review from that first show, and laughed at myself. If you'd like to read it, and laugh at me some more, here's the link. This was back in the day when people started a whole new thread for their individual concert reviews. Thank goodness we don't do that anymore! http://www.mikafanclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5480&highlight=MAGIC+MAYHEM (Please be warned, I was in the "New Mika Fan Honeymoon Phase" when I wrote that review, so there is a lot of swooning and fangurl antics going on. Let it be known that I am a different woman now, and will never exhibit such behavior again. Ever. ) OK, that's all. I'm finally done now. THE END.
