LilStar Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) My first proper mika gig. I am in awe... So... people said i would fall in love all over again... i them.. but i really did I would resume the night by saying that it felt like the PDP DVD, only being IN it... incredible. I knew the crowd would be awesome.. but thats even more. We arrived at 1:30pm when the site opened. And got front row of course:aah: Catherine made a balloon cake for mika. When she got there we had to assemble it. Listening only to my inner artist *coughs* i managed to help. The cake was "backstage" and we had a barrier in front of us... stupid thing. So just smiled and told the security guard i needed to go there to make it. He couldnt say no:naughty: We managed to finish it in 20 mins(thats how much timethey allowed us) and then were rushed away... Then we waited and distributed the squares of fabric we made. it had the instructions on it: "is mikas birthday, wave me in the air during celebrate!"... people actually jumped all over us to get some LOL! overal we gave about 1.500 cause thats how many labels i made:aah: cut one by one!!! And then i was surprised to see mika come during the afternoon and do a soundcheck! my face went to: and he smiled at me i must have looked really fangurly LOL!!!! i was really surprised.. he did a few songs... was great... thats how i knew wed get Lola and Karen. He left waving us goodbye!! Then we waited... oh the joy hahahaha it actually went by fast considering! i was surrounded by great people:wub2: At one point he came back and did a tv interview in front of us... more screams from the crowd LOL! oooh, and i took a look at twitter when all the hot air balloons at the festival were taking off.. and who did i saw? Mika !!! from his pics i knew exactly were he was haha! he was right beside us backstage... and i thought NOOO hes gonna see the cake balloon!!! LOL!!! So first act ok... didnt care much.. then there was this LOOOOOOOOONG show of lights and drumming and.. ugh.. i couldnt wait for it to be over LOL!! it finished with fireworks so that was cool! Then the band came in .. and i saw mika backstage waiting to get on... Edited August 16, 2012 by LilStar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willywonka Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 True to his word, the festival representative who helped us coordinate everything yesterday sent me a couple group photos that he took. Here's the group shot -- You can just about see everyone there. Hope to have more later, but now I have to get ready for the airport! Where's Guy that i cannot see her? Is she the one hiding behind Mika??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LilStar Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 THE man. he came on... and.. i died:aah: he had such a great energy and looked SO HAPPY!!!! During a song, i cant remember now, he looked under his hat and looked at me as i sang the song.. i :fangurl:ed LOTS of eye contact!!! He even pointed my way when he said:the origin is you! during TOOl... i died again I cant remember the orders of the songs now.. but.. BG was great, Relax amazing!!! my first time seeing the oooooooohh-aaaaaahhh awwww!!!! really felt like i was watching a vid on youtube.. but for real!!!!!!!! Loved that he did Blue eyes... BIOTG he separated the crowd in two.. (AWWW I WAS HOPING TO DO THAT ONE DAY!!!) we were astronaut and elephant (he really loved those hot air balloons LOL!) and we lost. but i have this theory that the boys part always win cause its louder to say BOOYS and GIIIRLS.. maybe im just crazy. That was amazing. the crowd was SO GREAT! yelling screaming singing.... wow.. Songs from new album got great reactions: Lola, Underwater(he explained before that he wanted to quit everything 2 years ago.. took a plane to montreal, wrote that song.. and then was inspired again... we know the story.. but it was nice to hear for us), TOOL(OK, THAT SONG SERIOUSLY ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!! REALLY!!! WOW!) Love today was eve better than expected.. again i hoped he still did the jumping thing cause ive never done it of course.. so i was all hyper... ! Happy Ending was AMAZING... truly.. he looked happy.. I loooove the new style of lollipop!!! i almsot drowned under confetti during WAG hahaha! Random mika stuff: -During SITM, he said the song was for his grandma(again we know the story..) BUT, he said: my grandma is here... so i cant say that its about her now... Its the only place shes travelled to see me perform except from Lebanon.. (NAWWWWWWWWWW) -he tried a bit of GK in french but quickly got back to english -Towards the end of the gig, he talked about the first time he cancelled the show at the festival.. He had problems with his ears. And he said: .. "sometimes, you look back on your carreer.. " i dont think he finished that sentence.. he sounded kind of emotionnal.. and he said:"to be here tonight... in that magical place with balloons and an octopus n the back there(yes, there was an inflatable octopus..) is an honour. Thank you..." He really looked happy and thankful.. nawww The surprises!! So, when Celebrate started, i was like EEEEEEEEK!! here we gooo All mfcers took the flags out, and the crowd followed... Mika was busy looking down.. then looking at Joy... he mic was stuck XD, then looking down.. i was like COME ON!! the crowd were all waving their flags... So then, he finally looked up... and stopped... He had this HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE smile on his face!!!! he was so surprised... He kept on singing and grabbed a piece of fabric and looked at it and the label( I FANGURLED HAHAHA) and waved it also.. i think he kept it for like half the gig LOL!!! he really loved it!!! And i jumped like crazy.. and he looked at me and smiled so much... At the end he just said:"...thank you.. really" And the crowd started singing happy birthday... but we were all not synchronized! and the band started playing but mika was like: shhh!! wait!!! and tried to hear us sing hahaha.. it was cuuuuuuuuuuuute!! OH and guy waved a banner during the song as well.. tho i didnt see it when she waved it, im sure mika did!!!! he gave us the thumbs up after hhahaha During EMD, we had confetti poppers.. so we used them.. again mika gave us the thumbs up (gooood fans we are LOL!) Then the gig ended... mika ddnt look like he wanted to leave really. With all the songs he took his time and sang more choruses and at the end as well.. And he just stood there looking at us for like 30 secs... and then he waved with the band and left... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayaBadran Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 (edited) Oh My Dearest Lord... Where to start for me? I was wayyy too excited for this gig... My first Mika gig ever was a total SUCCESS! AND NOW THE PREGIG: Pregig was long, but WORTH! Mika surprised us at the soundcheck with some nice "before the show" songs, it was magic, it wasn't the gig yet and I was already fangurling! Marilou came afterwards, tweeted a picture of us, and that girl seems soo sweet! She waved at me several times! She has a great voice. After, the balloons appeared in the sky, I took pictures of 'em, they were stunning! The actual gig: wow. Every song was amazing. My favorite one was Underwater, because I had chills all over my body when he sang it! We popped our confittis while Elle Me Dit, it was so great! But mostly, Celebrate was EPIC! When he saw everyone turning the fabrics in the air, he was so stunned, I adored his reaction, he WAS really surprised the poor boy! I waved the whole time, sang along, heard him sing with my two ears open wide to him. The after gig was amazing, we got to meet him, all of us MFCers. He didn't get to sign our stuff, we took pictures with professionals handing cameras. I was beside Mika, very happy that we had the chance to talk a little with him 'cause the guards were being naughty meh meh! No signatures, no pictures. But as we say best: the memory is the best camera in the world! We are still going to have pictures, but that lil' chitchat with him is unforgettable. What I noticed was that he really gives his time to every single fan. I was the shortest one in the bunch, yet I got to speak to him a little with a: me: Hope to see you soon him: I really hope to see you soon too at the end of the conversation. I'm going to top this off with: Yesterday I met someone that I've been admiring for 5 years already, and his gig, his energy, his sympathy impressed me loads. I hope to meet him again SOON! Yep, best day in my life so far, meeting everyone was perfect, meeting Mika will be a moment stuck in my head forever, everyone is so nice and kind and KISSES XXX MWA Thank you MFC for being such an amazing fan club filled with lovely people Edited August 16, 2012 by RayaBadran Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
