A few of us saw him when he came to Montreal and Toronto in March. I was there but joined the forum only in may. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lollipop_monkey Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I hadn't heard that one before - thank you! Some of his answers are the same ones he's said over and over, but he does sound quite happy, and more candid than some recent ones. And I think he really does have a soft spot for Montreal. It's kinda sweet, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lollipop_monkey Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Calling all Montrealers! So my fiance and I were talking, and he said that he'd rather not go to a gig in Montreal because, quote, "Montreal smells bad. The whole city smells like murky water." He was there once, in July '03. (Please don't throw vegetables at him; he really is a nice person! ) Can anyone confirm/deny this claim? I've never heard of Montreal smelling bad... In fact, most people rave about Montreal - Mika included! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, most people rave about Montreal - Mika included! Nope...Montreal is lovely, and I didn't notice a smell. It may have been because it was -5 and therefore anything not covered up was frozen, i.e, my nose. Paris, on the other hand, smells like a charming blend of cigarette smoke, car exhaust, human sweat, and piss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elanorelle Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 I prefer warmer temps and that's the truth..I love Montreal indeed but would rather go in the summer! (will locate my fellow Canadians and give you guys a telephone call).However..as I said....its better for my pocket book etc if I go to California. Ritchie's sister lives there and she will pick me us up. and I know the place because I have been there three times ...so if anyone wants to join me there! just let me know!

lollipop_monkey Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 Good point about the "too-cold-to-smell" aspect. How cold does Montreal get, btw? January in Calgary has been known to be around -25C some days. It's making California/Florida look more and more appealing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lollipop_monkey Posted November 22, 2007 Share Posted November 22, 2007 well ,,,,join me in California then! I have to go to California in January/February anyway to book vendors for my San Diego wedding - so if he plays in California any time in those months, I'll be there. Hmm, wouldn't it be nice if he played San Diego, LA and San Francisco? I wouldn't mind chasing that boy all the way up the Golden State! New York/Montreal are also tempting, both because I've never been there and it sounds like there might be many fellow MFCers to share the craziness with.

But in winter it won't smell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
