. . . I told him he'd been wonderful, and thanked him, to which he replied "awwwe thank you"

and I said I didn't know how he had the energy for all that jumping about, and he smiled.

It was only about twenty seconds, but when you meet Mika, it's like time freezes and you are

left with a golden moment that you replay forever in your mind . . .

Marilyn, YOU are having one fine week!

I keep getting near the end of uploading my photos, but then my camera runs out of battery, stops uploading, and deletes the already-uploaded ones off the computer :sneaky2:

Hi there! I'm buzzing like a hive full of bees! What an amazing night it's been!

 

Before the gig I went with Alan for a nice meal in a pub in the centre of Manchester, then hopped on the 192 (an absolutely incredible bus service) which took us straight to The Apollo where we said hi to some MFCers. I don't like to name names in my reports because I worry about leaving someone out. But you know who you are, and it was really lovely to see everyone again.

 

The concert began with David writing at a desk, and the writing came up on the screen. a big name MIKA and then a tree, then we saw an animation of Mika singing Rain. I'm sure others will describe it better than me, but I could tell even then that the show would be awesome... and it was!

 

I tweeted to Mika afterwards, that it was one of the best nights of my life, and I truly mean it! His energy was boundless, his voice, incredible. He has become an even better performer than when I saw him at Brixton. He held nothing back, he threw himself into every song he sang. When he sang I SEE YOU, I cried real tears. When he sang TOUCHES YOU I wished I was twenty and single (sorry Alan, but never mind, Alan can run deff run off with Gaga) Only kidding, but I'm sure everyone knows what I mean. Who would not love that incredible man! Towards the end he had everyone on their feet for LOVE TODAY, and he unleashed the inner teenager in me with WE ARE GOLDEN! I heard a man shouting that he wanted GRACE KELLY, and Mika sang it as part of the encore, where he also sang TOY BOY and LOLLIPOP, so that man who shouted would have gone home completely happy.

 

Afterwards the die-hard fans including 'Three Legged Me' (two legs and a stick) waited in the cold for him to come out of the stage door. They put barriers up and he came down the line to sign our stuff. I told him he'd been wonderful, and thanked him, to which he replied "awwwe thank you" and I said I didn't know how he had the energy for all that jumping about, and he smiled.

It was only about twenty seconds, but when you meet Mika, it's like time freezes and you are left with a golden moment that you replay forever in your mind.

 

Then we travelled back on the 192 bus with some great Mika fans.

 

It was indeed, one of the best nights of my life! Roll on March 1st at Hammersmith!

 

what an amazing first report:wub2: so glad you had such a great time marilyn!!

Im not very good at reviews so I'll keep it brief! :)

It was my first time seeing Mika live last night, and I absolutely loved it. It was such a brilliant show and i reckon probably one of the best concerts I've ever seen. His voice was pitch perfect and the staging was so imaginative. It was just wonderful :D...and the finale was out of this world :D

I was a bit gutted that he didnt have any programme's for sale (coz i a bit of a collector) but i did get myself a very nice tshirt so it was all good!

In all it was a BRILLIANT evening :D

It would be nice if they had programmes, especially since Mika does signings quite often after the gigs. I'm not one for getting autographs but it beats having a ticket signed.

 

Glad you had a brilliant evening! His shows are really something special aren't they?

 

 

Someone thought it should have its own thread. :naughty:
