Mika announced the official name of his tour on 4 October 2009 while in rehearsals for the North American leg.
When the show started, attendees learned that the civilian-turned-astronaut lost in space was Mika.
The shows opened with the band in a living room-like setting, watching a fake news report on TV.
Actor Ian McKellen served as the narrator for this fake news show.
