A few days have passed since the concert at the Tilloloy Castle and I still feel the same energy of that incredible evening. :cheer: It was an amazing concert! The security guards collaborated with us and we went hand in hand, in order of arrival, lined up for 4. I attended more than 50 concerts of Mika and had never happened... It would be wonderful if it were always so! :wub2:  When Mika and his band went on stage, an empathy with the audience was immediately created. We sang, danced and interacted with them throughout the concert. Louison and her friends designed the fan action MAY YOUR HEAD ALWAYS BLOOM and Mika committed himself when he saw hundreds of sheets of paper up with that writing. :wub2:  Some fans had signs saying: I want to dance with you! Or: Today is my birthday! Or: Can I sing with you? Or: I love you! Mika read them, he answered each one and then he brought up a girl for singing Yo Yo with him. She was excited and trembled... But she finally managed to sing with him. I loved the whole concert and every single performance. :lustslow:During the greetings, we heard a loud noise... It was Max who had fallen on the drums. It was too much fun!! Wouter didn’t know whether to worry about him or the drums... :lmfao: We all laughed, Mika and the band and the same Max! :lmfao:

 

I love them!! ❤️

 

I share some photos and some videos of that incredible gig:

After having seen many videos of the new show, but also knowing the setlist, feel and look can change every night, I was incredibly curious to see it for myself in Tilloloy.

 

First of all, thanks to @FannySpina14 we had an incredible and very civil experience entering the venue up to the barrier. She and another French fan took it upon themselves to discuss the good experience they had in Bristol with security, who were more than willing to cooperate. Hats off to not only them for organizing it, but to every other fan and audience member by being so willing to follow. In the recent Korean video interview Mika speaks about how impressed he that the fans organize themselves, well, I must say that this was definitely one of those moments. 

 

The show: I absolutely love the new intros and the added instruments for the musicians (like bongos (?), for example). It gives a different depth to the musical arrangement and I really love it. The new programming of the lights was also noticeable and the cherry on top for the atmosphere. 

Knowing this would be Mika’s fourth gig in six days (and he would have to be in Morocco the next day!), I was wondering if he wouldn’t be too tired for full stage presence. However, this (very small) worry was taken immediately as he entered the stage. He was all smiles, radiating. 

 

Can we talk about the HUGE flowers? Or the costumes and the tiger head!? It came together very well! You could see Mika really enjoyed all phases of the show. They felt like chapters and every chapter had its own costume and small part of the setlist. If I could name them I would call them Discovery (Love Today, Origin of Love), Infatuation (BBB, Underwater), Pain (Yo-Yo, Rain) and Revelation (Grace Kelly, WAG). The phases for this show were in my opinion more apparent than the For The Right of Spring tour. But everyone has their own interpretation and that is also the beauty of it. 

The (HUGE!) flowers indicate for me the (blossoming) line of beauty in it all. 

 

There was a fan action where French fans had prepared 1000 sheets of paper with “may your head always bloom” written on it. Many fans helped with drawing flowers on them as we were in the queue. 

The impact of the fan action was palpable: Mika briefly became emotional. In the dark he quickly wiped his eyes and then set in with Happy Ending. I perceived the song differently having witnessed that small moment. 

 

There was a funny moment with a fan on stage singing Yo-Yo together. The fan wanted to take a selfie with Mika and he said “It will be filmed (pointing at the audience)! Live in the moment!” 

I think this comment is telling, because it was very apparent he fully lived in the moment during his performance and that created a warm and intimate atmosphere between the audience and himself. It’s something that is unique to him and his shows. 

 

On a last note: before the show started, I noticed a small girl in the audience who very much reminded me of my own daughter. She was not being able to see anything, so I ushered her to come in front of me and enjoy the show from the barrier. Unlike @dcdeb’s experience, this girl was very shy and I hardly noticed her at all. After the show I made sure she would be reunited with her parents and I immediately saw they had the same family constellation. We parted with my broken French and big smiles. What a night!

 

I posted a Reel on my Instagram about the show, to give you an idea of the atmosphere: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Ct65T7TsgfH/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

This is amazing, if only we could organize and make this happen each single time in the future... We should make it our tradition, and we'll be remembered (by non-fans) as the ones who can organize and patiently enter the venues  :angelnot:

 

btw I'm loving to see all these MFC gatherings and group activities during queue time, makes me want to queue... well, at least spend some time together lol!

Happy to hear about the organized entry! I really wish every venue would do this -- I don't think it takes any more of their time or energy to make sure everyone enters calmly and safely!

 

And I'm also glad your "little girl" experience was a good one. As I said before, I know what it's like to be short and not be able to see, so I don't mind if someone shorter than me (hard to find!) stands in front of me. Just don't hold your pizza slices in front of my face! LOL!

 

The fan action at Tilloloy was incredible -- I'm glad that they were able to pull it off!
