Christine Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 How can they transmit it live? I mean presumably the album will be playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaraMay Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I'm so confused I guess 8 italian fans will get the opportunity to ask Mika questions at 12 pm on Wednesday or something? I guess it's not related to the album playback in Milan later that day at all? Hopefully we'll get to watch the Q&A at least but I don't understand anything about this whole Google+ thing.

suzie Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 As it is called 'hangout' instead of a listening party, perhaps they will do something before the event, like a live Q&A However, I doubt you'd hear any recorded music other than the ones you have already heard.

I don't think we'll all be able to see the Google+ hangout -- I think just the participants can see it. It's like a video conference. This will give you a better idea. http://www.google.com/+/learnmore/hangouts/ The Page posted this reply under 8 comments: Grazie a tutti per le risposte!

w-lil Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 they say "L’Hangout con MIKA, realizzato in collaborazione con +Universal Music Italia, sarà visibile per tutti in diretta sulla pagina Google+ di +Zero Musica" so it should be for all to be seen live. That's what i understand. thre are not many people who commented yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eloise.shaw Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I think it's like a big conference, and then eight lucky people will be able to comminucate, and they'll have their webcams on but then the rest can only watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd really be surprised if all could hear the songs as well (even the ones joining via live meeting) but we'll see. Shame I couldn't even join via the web even if I had the rights to do so. However, I do believe in people with the right technology wiling to share with the community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzie Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Why can't you join? That's because I will be at other similar live meetings almost all day - without Mika being involved. I don't think we'll hear any new songs. Maybe one if we're lucky? It seems like an odd place to showcase the new songs to be quite honest. i have just checked the time of this listening party and it is from 4pm to 5pm CET., whilst the webcam party starts at 1 om CET - so two different things I suppose. The latter is likely to be more like a Q&A / press conference for fans broadcast live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
