lovempls Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Item-World: Gig in cartoon motion Last update: February 7, 2008 - 5:24 PM Gig in cartoon motion Who helps sell out Mika shows in the United States? ItemWorld is no demographer, but our crowd survey at Wednesday night's all-ages First Avenue show told us that the Britpop sensation has a fan base comprised mostly of teens and queens. The tall, shaggy-haired singer and his four-piece band ripped through 15 songs in 80 minutes, including most of his 2007 CD, "Life in Cartoon Motion." Besides Mika's high-energy falsetto melodies, there was dancing, banging on cans, giant puppets, a live cartoon shadow show, balloons, streamers and confetti. The encores -- "Grace Kelly" and "Lollipop" -- drove the young (and heavily female) audience to ever louder screaming. We haven't had that much fun since our eighth birthday party, which, by the way, was a blast. http://www.startribune.com/entertainment/15402721.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
