Unfortunately have to head back home right after the show (work and kids going to school the next morning...). See you all there! Omg I’m sensing a theme here! LOL! Maybe during the show someone could yell out “can the curly haired girls who dragged their husbands to the show please stand up” 🤣 Hopefully I’ll see you there! ☺️ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they would las forever, tbh. 😂 I’m just wondering if maybe is anyone up for getting together post show? There’s a pub at the corner of the History called Murphy’s Law (hopefully it doesn’t live up to its name 😂) But if anyone wants to show up maybe we should do reservations? Idk, just toying with the idea! Would love some feedback ☺️ also how common is it for Mika to see fans after a show? None? It’s my first show too… or ever close to this wonderful being 😂 Mika's shows typically run about 90 minutes -- not more than two hours. I think the Revelation Tour was something like 17 songs most nights? But I'm not sure we can rely on that -- he could surprise us and go longer! How common is it for Mika to see fans after a show? It used to be not only common, but usual. However, in recent times it's been a lot more sporadic. And in these pandemic times, who knows? So much depends on how he feels, whether he has any press or other commitments, whether the crowd is unruly, lots of factors. So we live in hope and wait for him to come out after the show. Then after a while Security usually says, "Oh, he's gone already," or "No, he's not coming out." And we don't believe them and wait some more because we know they're usually lying. But sometimes they're actually telling the truth and he really has snuck out another exit and we don't see him. But if he DOES comes out, he won't pose for photos (although you can take them as he's moving around), but he'll sign and chat and will usually stay to talk to everyone, unless there are several hundred people as there were in Paris.

Not sure how late things will be open on a Wednesday night though, but count me in (and my husband as well, who has no choice) 😁 Maybe since we have the power of @dcdeb in this thread, she might have more insight into how long the show might be, or if there’s a chance of seeing him after the show?? I don’t see any info about an opening act. Maybe there isn’t one? Nancy, you made me laugh out loud -- "the power of dcdeb"? Anyhow, it seems like there are DJ's for some of the other gigs -- Brooklyn has Ty Sunderland, which wasn't advertised until just recently. The three French-Canadian gigs were supposed to have someone named Klo Pelag. So I am assuming there will be some kind of opening act in Toronto, even if it's not advertised. But I suppose we could be surprised. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to hang out post the show let me know! But I’ll also shoot my shot to try to see him after the show. I know Toronto doesn’t have the size of the fan base as the other venues but it would be nice to get to have the same interaction as the rest. 😅 one can hope! We'll probably be hanging around after the show so I'm sure we'll see you. Have a safe trip next week! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mika was the first singer I was ever a fan of, I've dreamed of going to one of his concerts since 12 years old, and even though I had tickets to his 2020 show here that got cancelled by the pandemic, I only found out yesterday that he's going to be in Toronto ... - next week!!! Be still my beating heart I've been debating whether or not to go. Because I was a little worried, I don't know any other Mika fans, and going to a concert on your own can be intimidating. But seeing that so many friendly people are going is making me a little more inclined to buy a ticket. I haven't done so yet as I'm still a little anxious, but ahhh, I still can't help but be excited for next week to come anyway! I'll be going by myself too!! I'm hoping I can find other MFCers in line and we can buddy up before we get into the show. I'll be the shortie in a rainbow shirt and denim jacket with my MFC buttons. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone possibly have any clues as to the setlist, or is that more night-by-night? I'm not sure what identifiers to use, but if you see me in line please feel free to say hi, I have long dark wavy hair, in my 20s, will probably be in a black coat, my name is Sarika!~ You could always wear an MFC badge - that would help other fans find you 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose that's the core setlist and he'll add other songs, which might change for each gig or not... Probably the setlist of the NY gig will be posted after the show, that could give some more clues. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going with my cousin - I'll be the big girl with the shirt that says "Big girl saved me" designed like the dodgy holiday album ❤️ if any mfc'r see me before or after the show say hi!! I'd love to make some Mika friends, as I am the only one I know who is a fan. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
