no worries, anyone that knows me knows that I will always try to get pics! So funny though, I just realized that it's already August TOMORROW! Holy Hannah, where did this year go?!? Anyway, I've got a 16 GB and 8 GB cards for my camera ready, and I'll see if I can bring a tripod or something. The problem that I have with my camera is that once you focus in video mode, you're stuck; you can't zoom or change the settings without stopping the clip. And I don't have any means of joining clips (I have no editing software), so then it all gets choppy. Anyway, I shall do my best

We've missed MiG so much for the past year, we appreciate any glimpse of him we can get. I'm certain your pics will be stellar!! #takepic# #hugz#

I had a dream last night that I brought my camera and forgot to take any photos because I was just having a good time. Suddenly I realized that the show was over and I had nothing. How bizarre is that?

LOL, that's not bizarre. Toni almost never takes pics during a gig for that very reason! ;D

hi everyone! It was WAY TOO SHORT!! Really good stuff. Some of the songs (I know I'll be back to edit): WWRY Let me entertain you I want to break free BILYW OSSAT She loved We are the champions Bo Rap Videos will be up later. I'm uploading the second one I took and it's nearly 500 mb and is taking FOREVER. Here are some photos in the meantime. From around the third song: During BILYW: We are the champions and Bo Rap: Taking a bow with the dancers: At a photo op afterwards: I have heaps of work to get done tonight, so that's it for now.

Thank you so much for the pics. MiG looks great on a bike! (although I must admit, Simone looked even better on a bike in that fun pic they took on one of their tours, hahaha) Out of curiosity, is there anyone in the audience shots that we might know of from the forums? Wooo, great little pressie for me to see this as I go off to work!!! You are too kind, JVD!

Thanks JVD!! Those are great shots/ I especially love the first two that show how much fun he is having. Love the song list. We have a vid on youtube when he sang Let Me Entertain You at Market Days last year that I love. I can't wait to see you vids and hear more about the gig. Thanks for posting early when you had so much other stuff to do. #smiley2# #thSENDIN1#

A few videos: www.youtube.com/watch?v=hA-YrDtghbwwww.youtube.com/watch?v=i0ZgA8_EFRsYou should have the option of watching in high quality soon because I filmed this at a very high resolution. The dancers were supplied by the mall and ... well, they were crap. They're ok on these vids, but when he did Bo Rap and We Are the Champions, it was clear that they hadn't rehearsed and didn't know what to do and were litterally just flailing around and giggling. It was a stark contrast to the way MiG was - very professional, as with every time I've seen him. I was MORTIFIED right before he sang We are The Champions - he started by talking about the Olympics and said something like "this song should be sung at the Olympics" and I said "One Big Sky!" but not very loudly. Unfortunately, we made eye contact just at that moment and he asked me to repeat myself (he was speaking into the mike and still in the middle of the floor). I said ... "One Big Sky?" wanting to melt into the floor. He made a good joke and moved on. When he said "We are the Champions" I had a real <headsmack> moment. There might be another video up later. I was uploading it and my houseguest came home (who is sleeping in my computer room) so I just left the computer on. I can't remember what song it was and whether I marked it as Public or Private. Toni, I have a few shots of people from the m-m.com forum, but I don't think from here. I didn't see KY until the end, but there are some young girls holding up signs who post(ed) on mm.com and who were very enthusiastic. I also saw a few people from the stage door in HK and in Bangkok, and in a typical HK way we exchanged business cards, lol.
