Cold Hands, Warm Heart for MiG Ayesa and UK Fans

MiG Ayesa heated up the crowd on a frigid night in Leeds with a peak performance that ended the summer season of the QUEEN Rock & Symphonic Spectacular. MiG starred with Kerry Ellis, Mazz Murray and Ricardo Afonso at Harewood House on September 4. The group left it all on stage and had a ball. The crowd forgot about their chattering teeth and shivering for a while, in spite of the sinking temperatures. Check out these videos of One Vision and We Will Rock You and you'll see why.

MiG gets the crowd into it



MiG Ayesa always warms a crowd, but on this night he also thoroughly warmed the hearts of two people in the audience. Wend, who is a member of Team MiG, and her husband, Geoff, went to see MiG and experienced an evening they won't forget. It started with a riveting performance by MiG that oozed with personality, as one can witness by Bicycle Race. One of the best ways to tell you how MiG's thoughtfulness touched Wend and Geoff is to share Wend's own words, photos and videos of the evening. Read on....

Wend's Account of the Special Evening
MiG rocked. It was a bittersweet performance as it was the last summer Queen Spectacular of 2009 so emotions were running high, which made the show even more special. All the singers seemed to make the most of their last evening together and blew the audience out of the water! In my opinion, it was the best show of the summer (the coldest, but the best)! And YES, it was soooo cold! MiG was really feeling it. Even with the several layers of clothing he had on, he still said he was "bloody freezing." At the end of singing I Want to Break Free, he included his words of "and I wanna warm up too..." just classic!

Our evening was made even more special and unforgettable as Geoff was celebrating his 40th birthday, and MiG went out of his way to help the celebrations along. Anne-Louise had a fabulous cake arranged with a picture of Geoff and MiG at Clumber Park last year on it. We were able to get some great photos of MiG and Geoff holding the cake, while a few "old age" comments were being batted about. MiG continued to carry on the "40" theme by making "40" signs with his hands. After making an announcement on behalf of the park owner, he made one of his own, wishing his good friend Geoff a Happy 40th Birthday.

MiG and Wend brave the cold


The whole evening was just a dream come true. MiG does and says some of the sweetest things, which makes him a unique individual. That is why Geoff and I will continue to support him no matter what!

Although the summer season is complete, the sweet memories MiG gave Wend and Geoff, as well as other UK fans, will remain. There will be more performances, more gigs, and more appearances for MiG. You can bet that at every one, whether it's a massive crowd or an intimate one, MiG will make them feel the same way. That's who he is. And that's one reason he's so special to us.

A big thank you to Wend for sharing her words, photos and videos.

Keep the light shining and pass it on,

Kay
Team MiG Global
