RAK1 Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Celebrate was on in The T mobile shop that I was in on Saturday - I think it is getting more exposure than any of the tracks on TBWKTM already No because despite entering for a lot of these I have never been successful! Thank you! Hopefully we'll get lucky this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kath Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Hopefully we'll get lucky this time I hope so but really, I am not holding out much hope. I was convinced that I would win in the January 2007 one and of course I didn't! But as you say - we can live in hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marilyn Mastin Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Celebrate was on in The T mobile shop that I was in on Saturday - I think it is getting more exposure than any of the tracks on TBWKTM already No because despite entering for a lot of these I have never been successful! Thank you! I hope Celebrate is becoming successful. I have tended to be in two minds about it being the first single, as I think there are better ones on the album. But it is good, and Mika sings it well live, so I live in hope for the song to be a hit. When I went in for the ballot for the Blackpool gig, which was free like this one, I didn't win a ticket, but a kind MFCer (who wished to remain annonymous) gave me her two tickets. That's how I got to go. So maybe if someone wins, and can't go, there'll be some going spare. If it's known that you'd be interested, you might get some offered to you. I haven't gone in for this one. I'm seeing Mika twice in December. I'm going to wait for those two gigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I think Celebrate is very commercial (which is probably why I don't like it) but I do think it is great live. I think that there were a lot more tickets available for the Blackpool gig wern't there which is why so many of us got to go. I have enetered these radio theatre things for loads of artists and never even had a sniff of a ticket. However, we shall see. I hope that at least a few MFCers are lucky.

I haven't gone in for this one. I'm seeing Mika twice in December. I'm going to wait for those two gigs. You were lucky then. For the Blackpool BBC gig I never got tickets even though I applied early, and only got in because a friend gave me one. On the contrary though, there were LOTS of european MFC'ers who had also applied for tix and travelled to the UK for it. This is where (as I am sure you will understand) my slight frustration about this "the world and their dog applying for BBC tickets" situation tems from. Because we are paying for the licence and therefore effectively paying for the gig but getting nothing for it, whereas others who have not contributed get to go to such a spectacular thing. I am all for everyone getting in if that was possible, but numbers are super limited and for that reason it's always a bitter pill to swallow when these thinggs happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christine Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 People always have a justification for invading London (flights are cheap, they love London, blah, blah) but I'm not quite sure how you justify going to Blackpool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
