kreacher Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 (edited) Good interview, thanks for posting in LaraMay! I heard (from Mika via another MFCer) it was a bong. That's sweet about his teacher. It's easy to imagine a lot of people seeing something special in Mika so I'm not surprised he's gotten that kind of help along the way. I had some pretty useless teachers but a few of them were pretty amazing like that too. I dunno what they were smoking in Philly but after the gig Mika told us how in Denver people were sitting on the floor in the venue smoking a bong Edited April 19, 2013 by kreacher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT HE IS SOOO PURRRFECT USUALLY WHY WHYYYYY?" comments. he didn't smoke. he's a poor passive-smoking victim. seriously, i think that smoking should be forbidden at concerts (indoor ones at least), luckily in germany that's the case since a few years. i find it very selfish and unacceptable to smoke in a crowd, it's about as unpleasant for non-smokers as someone constantly farting would be for everyone who is able to smell. might be a minor problem in an open-air venue, but in a small closed club it's just but well, mika probably enjoyed getting stoned for free, otherwise he just could have commented on it in the show / asked that person to stop or go to the back til they're finished.

Christine Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 seriously, i think that smoking should be forbidden at concerts (indoor ones at least), luckily in germany that's the case since a few years. I'm pretty sure it's forbidden to smoke pot anywhere but that doesn't mean people obey the rules. Maybe it's okay in Denver since the November elections to smoke pot generally because if I recall Colorado voted to legalize marijuana but I would still think it's not okay to smoke anything at an indoor venue. We have a new venue by the beach that is completely outdoors and I'm going to need to wear a gas mask to Bjork if I want to remain sober. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The singer recently completed a small U.S. tour, including Washington, D.C.'s ultra-polite 6th and I Synagogue, further proving that a pop star can change his stripes. I love that image And Heroes!! My favourite of this album It warmed my heart when I read he chose to mention that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do show foreign movies in the UK. Maybe they'll show the movie Mika is in, but it's not a big part, from what I can gather. Yes, I also approve if Mika does something to draw some attention to himself. Even if it's not the usual popstar stuff. I wish he was on X Factor UK. I'd be the happiest person alive if he was, because it would definitely get him back on top in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
