guylainem123 229 Posted February 12, 2011 And a penitentiary. Ha, Aurelien is in Paris now. We may as well invite Mika from London in that case. darn.... we missed out on Aurelien nah, i don't think Mika should come, though he would be great entertainment. he'd steel our thunder! maybe there are a few available room at the penitentiary lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marilyn Mastin 757 Posted February 12, 2011 It sounds really great and I couldn't make it to the last one, but Alan and I should be able to come to the next one. As for ideas, we could actually call it the 1st Mika Convention, if we can get a venue, we could have things like A fancy dress contest (peeps could dress up as Mika characters from the songs) A MIKAraoke night Maybe an auction of Mika memorabelia (or other stuff) for charity. Those are my ideas up to now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those are my ideas up to now. Thanks Marilyn, some great ideas there. Yes, if we were there for two nights - the Friday and Saturday, I guess we could have something like a 'Mikaroke' night. (bit of a scary thought though!) To go down the road of a convention and to have a function room for the whole weekend would incur quite a lot of costs but there is no reason why we can't look into it. I think the fancy dress idea is a great one and certainly brings us back to the celebration of the early days......it would be like turning back the clock:naughty: I, of course, have the perfect excuse not to dress up as I always travel on Ryanair so aren't allowed much baggage.....unless I travel in my costume Oh yes, it just gave me a good idea for a costume.

silver 9,773 Posted February 12, 2011 These are my first musings, you must understand, but I was wondering if there was something everyone could do and each country could post pics of in turn - starting with Australia (in the same way each country sets off fireworks at the start of the New Year). Just can't decide what it should be. A flashmob? Singing a birthday song? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just can't decide what it should be. A flashmob? Singing a birthday song? I like your idea of a combined act (don't know to describe it better), and I have a picture in my head to set small coloured gaz-balloons free, with e.g. a wish on a card like some people are doing at wedding-feasts..

faballa 12 Posted February 12, 2011 Thank you, you both -- and balloons would be also 'mika-ish'. ha, it's exciting to make plans for this anniversairy, and also totally crazy to start one year in advance with thoughts about it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
