pinkunicorn123 Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Yikes - was just browsing ebay for tickets to see whats what, and at the moment, 2 tickets for this concert cost about £130 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikafish Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 I've found them for a fair bit less than that but still not cheap. I really hate that you are allowed to sell tickets on Ebay. I'm sure there are genuine cases of people that bought them and now can't go but I'm sure most of them are just doing it for the profit which isn't fair to fans!

big_girl1983 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Hiya guys, it's my first Mika concert and was wondering if people tend to dress up, fancy dress etc. or go just casual? I was desperately trying to find the blue corsetbig girl wears but haven't had any luck yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkly1 Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 dressing up is optional, but MFCers often do. I got to drive to Manchester, I'm not looking forward to it, I know its only about 2 n a half hours drive, but I HATE driving and I dunno whether to stay overnight in a hotel or drive back the same night, I'm staying over in Doncaster and I'm not looking forward to that drive too but at least it's not right through a busy city center I'm sure Mika is trying to kill me indirectly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did on my first time round, nothing can prepare you for seeing him live. On the dressing up thing, lots of people do, but lots of people don't too so I guess it just depends on what you are comfortable with. For my first concert I didn't have the guts to dress up (I wish I had now tho) I just sprayed my hair purple and had a feather boa. This time I'm dressing up fairly majorly, sort of a Ringmaster/ Lion tamer kinda thing, including top hat and leather whip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatagordinha Posted September 24, 2007 Share Posted September 24, 2007 This time I'm dressing up fairly majorly, sort of a Ringmaster/ Lion tamer kinda thing, including top hat and leather whip! Thanks for that info, now I will be able to spot you easily It sounds great! I won't be dressing up as such as it's not really my thing, but I will try to make a bit of an effort. I think I may have a purple theme. The friend I am taking would actually disown me if I wore fancy dress so I'm thinking of her too I'm worried about her actually, she really doesn't like Mika and I don't think she's fully aware what she's letting herself in for I know he'll win her over though! Anyone else taking a Mikasceptic along ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not car-sharing though as I want to hang around afterwards with MFCers and the people I'm coming with will want to shoot off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gatagordinha Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 BUMPETY BUMP BUMP what hotels etc are you all staying in, I don't know Manchester Hotels at all. Well I'm dossing on my friend's floor for the night - if I were staying at my own house I could put you up (although that would have meant me driving)but I don't think I can really put on my friend any more... You could try the Travelodge in Manchester - there is one on Blackfriar's Street which is very central, although opposite side of town from the Apollo (but near taxi rank). Apollo is prob best reached by taxi anyway, it is walkeable from city centre but if the weather is bad... I'm really not sure about hotels near the Apollo. I don't know that end of Manchester too well. Just the Salford side really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparkly1 Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 I booked the Manchester Ancoats as it's s bit nearer to the gig and Piccadilly train station I think, and it's only about 10 mins walk to the gig £26 for a double room aint bad at all.
