iadoremika Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 I've read other blogs that say mean things about other people I like. I got really angry at first, and then realized that they're entitiled to their own opinion. In other words, I ignored them because the mean things they were saying made them come across as a ill informed a**holes - because, see, my problem was HOW they wrote it. With poor writing skills, and without the proper research, I just can't take some "journalists" seriously. It's funnier to laugh at what they write, really, because it's so ridiculous. If Mika isn't worth the money he would have people jet setting to various continents to see his shows. Or buy his CDs. Or concert merchandise. Or concert tickets. Mika wouldn't have a fan club if he wasn't worth the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherol Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Hah, so Facebook comments actually count for something now? I wonder if they took a survey of how many people pressed the "like" button as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soaring Simpson Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 it's obvious that this paper is talking rubbish. I don't think so- it sounds like the organisers have changed the target audience after people have part paid- and even if they haven't paid yet, it's disappointing when something that's "your sort of thing" becomes something that isn't. I'm glad our boy's willing to take a reduced fee for a worthy cause (though I haven't bothered to find out what that cause is yet) and Mika is the best- obviously- but I wouldn't expect him to be a big pull for fans of the bands mentioned in the Plymouth Herald article.

willywonka Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Who twited the other night saying "sell your kids if you have to but don't miss this show"? So, yeah Mika you're worthy all the money we spend on you... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzie Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 I only read through the article and some of the first posts quickly last night and it seems to me that only people who pay an annual membership fee can go to the gig or buy a ticket. It has also been posted that 2010 membership is already sold out, making it difficult for Mika fans to buy a ticket. So how about writing an open letter to that newspaper, offering readers to buy their membership / ticket to the show? Perhaps we could even enclose a link to MFC ... I think it would not only be a positive answer but also show how determined Mika fans are to watch their favourite artist perform live. We might as well embed a link to a live performance so that people can see what we are talking about (e.g. the Little Noise gig - I can't imagine anyone daring to have a bad word about that one unless they are completely dumb.)
