SkullyRox Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 From the 'Rav' page in the News of the World today. The ace MIKA is going to headline a live gig at the London Eye. Italian car makers Fiat have booked the QUEEN soundalike to do a set in front of a VIP showbiz audience when they launch their new Fiat 500 at the end of the month. Other bands hoping to play at the gig include the fantastic Feeling. *I did a quick check but couldn't see if this had already been posted, apologises if it has* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babspanky Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Haven't seen it, but VIP gig, that means we can't go? Actually, that is giving me bad deja vu. Ages ago I dreamt that every year London had a festival where various actq played in venues around the river. Mika was playing but we couldn't find out where exactly he would be on, or when. I remember standing on a bridge, looking at the London Eye frantically trying to think where he might be playing. Anyway, I never did find out, because the flyers we had been looking at were for the following years festival..... You have just entered the twilight zone......

SkullyRox Posted January 6, 2008 Author Share Posted January 6, 2008 Haven't seen it, but VIP gig, that means we can't go?I assume it's a showbiz only thing. But, it's the Eye-the eye can be seen from many places-so I guess you'd be able to 'hear' or see something...!?!...end of the month? Isn't he busy then?That's what I thought when I read it. But, it doesn't say a date-it just says end of month-so maybe he has a window? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greta Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I can' believe it!!! look what I found in the FIAT 500 promotional site! http://www.fiat500.com/eng/ Il Brand Fiat è sempre più vicino ai giovani, così come dimostrano le ultime campagne pubblicitarie (quella di Punto ad esempio).Oltre ad essere un mito, per chi non l' ha già conosciuta dal punto di vista "storico" (ovviamente mi sto riferendo ai giovani), la nuova 500 ispira simpatia, vitalità e dinamicità...e quale musica meglio di "Grace Kelly" di Mika riuscirebbe a dare quel senso di argento vivo addosso che ispira 500?!...Penso che Mika sarebbe un buon Testimonial..e sinceramente già mi immagino uno spot con 500 che gira per le strade avendo come sottofondo le note di Grace Kelly....si, si..decisamente un immagine niente male. Burichetti Giampaolo da Pisa.{I've always known that Tuscany is the coolest region of Italy} An italian guy has suggested Mika as "star maker"!:italia:ok... google translation? The Brand Fiat is increasingly close to young people, as evidenced by the recent advertising campaigns (the Point for example). Apart from being a myth, not for those who 'have already known from the point of view "historic" (obviously I am referring to the young), the new 500 inspires sympathy, vitality and dynamism ... and what music better than "Grace Kelly" Mika able to give that sense of silver that inspires him alive 500 ?!... I think Mika would be a Testimonial good .. and I sincerely already imagine a spot with 500 running in the streets as having the background notes Grace Kelly .... yes, we definitely an image .. not bad.
