If he doesn't sing Tomorrow I will be so sad because it is my fav song of his My dream setlist includes Tomorrow, Origin of Love, Les baisers perdus Ice Cream and Good Wife I'm pretty sure Kids and Good Gone girl would be totally heavenly as well as Good Wife but it is unlikely that he sings them although you never know with Mika and if he blesses us with new songs I'm pretty sure my heart will melt I had kind of refrained myself from hoping those concerts would happen but not anymore now...they are getting really close and I am daydreaming now 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I start to believe in it now ! The situation is better in our country I would dare to think, I really think it will be OK (for now at last) ! I would love Tomorrow too. And Tiny Love, I'm sure it would be perfect in symphonic. I would love Heroes too, he made it before after all, and I never heard it live. But I think anything will be fine for me. I've dreamt of a symphonic concert for years, I will rediscover all the songs anyway so whatever he sings, I will be happy. I already told my father he must not be suprised if I start to pinch myself at a moment, because I will have lot of difficulties to realise it will be real... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabine64 Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 (edited) For the Fanaction, when I proposed the make posters with Thank You in all our languages I got told it wasn´t elegant enough for the Philharmony and Sinfonic concerts. So I think a mustache is also not elegant enough and will surely not suit to the dresses we all will wear. And to say the truth I will get my nails done from a nailartist for these concerts so they won´t be in different colours. It´s a big differenz to plan a fanaction for a normal concert but for a Sinfonic concert it doesn´t suit in my and my friend´s opinion.

It´s a big differenz to plan a fanaction for a normal concert but for a Sinfonic concert it doesn´t suit in my and my friend´s opinion. For the moment we are just talking about any fan action. And our imagination runs in different directions And what we will do in reality is another thing. Maybe nothing? We will discuss it in a bigger group. I think Deb would like to organize a special Zoom meeting to talk about the Paris event. As for me I will not be so elegant like some girls mention here: special dresses, sequins, ect. No nail polish, nor a dress ( I don't wear dresses). I will be elegant in my own way So what is elegant and what is not - it's a question of taste. I am sure we will see people wearing jeans for this concert. And I find moustache idea very funny and Mika will understand the meaning. But it's not up to me to decide.

Funny, but starting to try and stick those things on our masks for a certain song would be pretty chaotic. I do suppose it'd make Mika laugh - but remembering the atmosphere at the Montreal gigs, that wouldn't fit. He has to work together with dozens of musicians, we weren't even allowed to clap to the songs, because it was too distracting for the orchestra. Imagine him cracking up during a song, or having to ignore this funny action ... I'd prefer to keep this idea in mind for a gig in the future, maybe even one where masks aren't necessary anymore, then we could have a lot more fun with this. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 We'll put the moustache idea on the back burner for now, then I think at the right gig it could be hilarious. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe in Versailles they prepared masks because the concert has been recorded? So the production organised it. I don't know. Here in Poland I was at Jakub Jozef Orlinski concert a few weeks ago in a venue like the Philharmonie de Paris and everybody was wearing their own masks. I think I read somewhere on the website/in an email they sent that you had to wear grade 2 medical masks but they didn't say whether they provided them or not because I made a note to bring some so that I could wear one under my pretty mask! Although there is a very good chance that I dreamt this 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny but I also think that it would be too much distraction if we do it for a specific song in the middle of the concert I think we'd rather have them from the very beginning and keep it during the whole concert , kindda just an old fashion style ....or use the idea for a picture at the MFC tour boat party 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcdeb Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Finally, I'm here and able to join in the conversations! On 9/9/2021 at 4:39 PM, silver said: We'll put the moustache idea on the back burner for now, then I think at the right gig it could be hilarious. I must say that I agree with silver here. I think the idea IS hilarious, but I really don't think it would be appropriate for the concert itself. As I think mellody said, at the Montreal symphonic concerts, Mika and the conductor Leclerc were both very concerned with keeping the atmosphere rather dignified. We weren't allowed to sing and clap along to the songs - the conductor "shushed" us! It seems that Leclerc is acting as conductor for these concerts, too, so I expect the atmosphere to be the same.

And speaking of the boat party... I finally have some info. I'm going to start a new thread for it, though, as I expect we'll have lots of discussion there. One last thing before I start it, though... this article from a US travel magazine just came to my inbox the other day.
