Kumazzz Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Outsiders http://www.outsidersmusica.it/recensione/Roma/photo-mika-palalottomatica/ [PHOTO] Mika | Palalottomatica Due giorni fa Mika ha infiammato il Forum di Assago, alle porte di Milano, con la prima delle tappe del suo Heaven Tour, la tournée invernale che porterà l’artista libanese a girare l’Europa per i prossimi mesi. Ieri sera è stata la volta di Roma. Da cornice allo show una roulotte piantata in pieno palco: scenografia a metà strada tra un circo e musical stile Broadway e un “folletto” dal forte carisma per una serata pop coloratissima. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(KIKA) - ROMA - Dopo il concerto sold out al Forum di Milano della scorsa domenica scorsa, Mika ha concesso il bis sul palco del Palalottomatica di Roma per una nuova tappa del suo Heaven Tour 2015, seconda data in Italia, prima dell'appuntamento al Nelson Mandela Forum di Firenze. Il palazzetto capitolino era gremito di fan in ogni ordine di posti. “Volevo una scenografia ispirata a una fabbrica dismessa, ma poi ho pensato che andavo a suonare nei palazzetti che, in fondo, già lo sono – ha detto il cantautore in una recente intervista - Così da una parte ho rappresentato il progresso, dall'altra la fantasia e i colori, due mondi diversi con un'idea precisa: evitare gli schermi, che possono bloccare la sinergia che si crea tra artista e spettatoriù2 foto di Ernesto Notarantonio) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggie112 Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Hi! This was my second hometown gig after the 2012 one (which was my first gig ever, and I fell in love with his live music after that one ) His audience in Rome changed a lot during these 3 years (at least the people who were around me) I arrived at about 8 AM and got number 103, so when I entered the venue, there was still space on the barrier, but at the really side of the stage, so I chose to be in 4th row in the front... big mistake! The crowd started "dancing" in a really.... exuberant way and pushing a lot,even before the show started (in Italian we say "pogare"...moshing?) so I was pushed from left to right, from 5th to 3rd row, and vice versa during all the show... I never experienced a crowd like that at the other standing Mika gigs I have been was I just unlucky to be next to the wrong people, or was all the crowd in the first rows acting like that? So at the end I was reeeeeaaly tired Apart from that, I queued all day and paid the ticket, so I had to enjoy the show as much as possible It was amazing! I really liked Good wife and Promiseland live which i hadn't heard yet, but he was really energetic during all the setlist, and I think that the Underwater part, with thousand of lights, must have been really beautiful I have to say that I don't appreciate his choice to do talent shows per se (maybe just the first year) but if it had made possible to build this show...well it was ok I hope that all the people who were so enthusiastic to see him live during this tour, won't forget him when he will stop to be always on tv 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liliana Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 I'm at the Vatican right now and there is less confusion to see the pope than yesterday to see Mika... I'm still recovering from the craziness and nonsense I experienced! (I really need my bed...) When I get a proper internet connection I try to right a decent report! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy that you've left Norway, and could enjoy MIKA in your fab. hometown Rome - even it had to be "hard work" - but I'm sure it was worth it !! A million thank you to all the others also, who has shared their experiences with reports, from the last gigs - and all these unbelievable great pics and vids!! OMG - you're all soooo clever and focused, I really have to admire you all for your "documentaries" !! THANK U My biggest wish for the time being is that there will be made a really good DVD, available for all MIKA fans worldwide - cause I'm sure this Heaven Tour needs to be taken care of, in a proper and well directed way...

Prego I have to say that I hoped that Mika would have been invited to Bergenfest last June, because I have the idea that Norwegian audience is less less stressful than Italian one But I guess that Mika loves when the crowd is soooo enthusiastic to see him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot of places and festivals that MIKA should be invited to in Norway, and if it happened, I'd be over the moon! But I'm afraid it won't happen. He still gets some radioplay here, but only for GK and Relax! The rest of his music people don't know about! I read in another thread here, that the alb. NPIH is no. 37 on the iTunes chart!? I assume it's for another country... Love,love me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mamiam Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 I heard Celebrate at IKEA and I couldn't believe And I heard "Celebrate" twice on the radio, when it was brand new - and that was it Of course, there might be shops, or other public places, that uses his music now and then, but I'm afraid it's very seldom, and people in general are only feeded with these two old songs, at the radio channels, and it SO annoying, when you know about all the masterpieces MIKA has made, after LICM...

Kumazzz Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) 100 DECIBEL http://www.100decibel.com/wp/il-mondo-incantato-dellheaven-tour-di-mika-fa-capolino-nella-citta-eterna/ Il mondo incantato dell’Heaven Tour di Mika fa capolino nella Città Eterna set 30, 2015 Partito da Milano domenica scorsa, ieri sera al Palalottomatica di Roma si è svolta la seconda tappa dell’Heaven Tour 2015 di Mika, che ha portato l’eclettico libanese in una dimensione più “reale” di quella cui siamo ormai abituati a vederlo. Lasciati gli schermi televisivi, ecco che Mika si fa travolgere dal calore del suo pubblico, perchè in questa serata è lui l’indiscusso protagonista. Lui e la sua scenografia che ci fa dimenticare di essere in un asettico palazzetto, ma che ci da invece la sensazione di essere catapultati in una dimensione surreale, come in una graphic novel, ma non per questo farlocca. Il pubblico è euforico e scatenato, a stento la voce di Mika riesce a infrangere il boato di benvenuto, tanto che lo stesso artista dichiara di ricordare i suoi live a Roma, perchè il pubblico canta davvero forte. Il brano di apertura è No Place In Heaven, un’intensa e commovente ballad che il cantante enfatizza presentandosi come un mendicante. Un mendicante che elemosina perdono, un perdono per aver scelto di essere semplicemente se stesso, senza maschera alcuna. Mika fa di ogni brano una storia non solo da cantare e raccontare, ma anche da interpretare e la sua teatralità ha fatto di questo live un vero e proprio spettacolo, da godere in ogni istinte. Onore e gloria alla scenografia, che ci ha portato dal cielo, tra il Paradiso tanto sognato, all’inferno del progresso che dipinge tutto di drammaticità, ma la scelta fumettistica ci fa trapelare una speranza nel futuro, che risiede tutta in noi, giovani “Big Girls”. Cavalcando l’onda dei primi successi della sua carriera, Mika ci coinvolge in balletti e coreografie smartphoniane che emozionano e trasformano il Palalottomatica dapprima in un cielo stellato e poi in una gigantesca onda. Ospite (non tanto) a sorpresa, Chiara Galiazzo per un’interpretazione di Sturdust a doppia voce che è sempre bella da vedere e sentire. Anche se, dite la verità, in quanto avrebbero voluto vedere sul palco Miriam, la coraggiosa greca di X Factor per un altro duetto su queste note? Ed è ancora con la Galiazzo che sulle note di Lollilop, la serata si conclude dopo quasi due ore. Prossimo appuntamento con Mika, questa sera, 30 Settembre, a Firenze, al Nelson Mandela Forum.

Alyara Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 The concert in Rome was the first one of the new tour for me, I was looking forward to it and it was very good. I had tried so hard to avoid spoilers from the previous dates, but in the end curiosity won and I watched the whole Periscope of the Milan concert and I have to say I had the impression Mika was in a better mood there, more chatty and funny than in Rome. Oh well... it was good just the same. I was there with Sarah and it was my first seated gig ever, so I didn't know exactly what to expect, but now I know that seated gigs aren't that much fun for me. I mean, I didn't even mind much about being on the side of the stage (I actually could see part of the backstage, I even saw Mika changing clothes XD) I only wanted to stand up and dance and jump, but after the third song people behind me started to tell us to sit down, therefore we had to restrain ourselves from fully enjoying the atmosphere. We tried to remain seated for two or three songs then dance for one or two and then we sat again. I don't understand why people go to a Mika concert and expect people not to dance and sing along. We were also surrounded by teenage girls always going back and forth, running down the stairs every time Mika walked towards where we were or had to go backstage, then the security guy would tell them to go back to their seats, which they would do for maybe 10 mins before running down again. It was such a pain. But I tried to enjoy it as much as I could. His voice was good, better than in June I'd say. Once it was over, we went out to have a chat with the others, I met some new people and some I already knew: Allegra, Myriam, Lasher, Saskia, Eugenio, Sara, Solange and I'm probably forgetting someone else, I'm sorry, my memory sucks. It was so good to have a chat with you all (in case you're wondering, I was the curly girl with a flower headband). We waited for Mika outside, but he probably left from a different gate as we saw a car with dark windows doing so and when it stopped at the traffic light, a group of people ran towards it and stayed there until it left again. I heard someone say it wasn't him in the car, but we stayed there till 2 am and no one else came out. I wasn't really expecting him to stop with fans, but you know, hope springs eternal. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
