Christine Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 This is from a few months ago but I don't think I've seen it on MFC before. Excellent review and some nice pics. MIKA October 2009 Orpheum Theatre Boston, MA Live Photos and Show Review by Lena Lamoray I was first introduced to MIKA on THE GRAHAM NORTON SHOW in 2007 and I have been hooked ever since. MIKA fills the void that is missing from music today. He is bubbling with charisma, flare and unabashed talent. His album LIFE IN CARTOON MOTION got my attention with LOVE TODAY and GRACE KELLY being my absolute favorites. THE BOY WHO KNEW TOO MUCH, his new album came out in September and is definitely worth owning so pick up both and go into a MIKA induced feel good coma. It was my first time seeing him live and honestly I knew he was going to be good but he proved to be magnificent. You can tell MIKA puts his all into his live shows. Everything is carefully planned out from the stage sets to the black light make-up. I love it when artists put the time in and develop a live stage show that tells a story and leaves us eager to know how it ends. I can’t think of a show that I have ever seen that has pieced together a moon landing, a half naked astronaut, a teapot on steroids and a puppet show and made a magical evening out of it. MIKA was performing so hard during the first couple of songs that he split his trousers. Luckily, this isn’t a death metal show so a costume change in front of us was a welcome event. MIKA is a good looking man with a tall in shape physique that includes perfectly tousled hair, nice feet and did I mention his British accent. I can certainly see why women and men fawn over him. All that being said and I still have not even gotten to the best part of MIKA, his voice! To say this man can sing doesn’t do him justice. His voice is in the realms of FREDDIE MERCURY and GEORGE MICHAEL. His voice is just so pure and downright beautiful and he can pull it off live. In fact, I have absolutely nothing negative to say about his show at all. Everything was perfect and the show featured some of my favorite things; retro clothing, feather hats, costume changes, colorful sets, moons, confetti and of course, MIKA. He even invited the crowd to sing with him. Of course, my favorite performance was LOVE TODAY but perhaps that is because that was my introduction into the wonderful world of MIKA. One thing is for certain, when you see MIKA live you will leave feeling a million times better than when you went in. With all the bad things happening in the world today it is nice to take a break from them and go on a musical journey with a true inspiration.

I'm so sorry, ladies, I'm afraid it already happened three times. PDP? He had some problems with trousers there? But I had a sitting ticket there, so maybe my mental powers are not as big as I wish Or does it means that they are even bigger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
