wow. the coldplay concert was AMAZING! got there at about 11:30am, me and mindy were about 10th in line, little after maybe. so anyways we were waiting around for a bit just talking with people and all that when apparently some girl says "hi chris martin" and i didn't hear her, but she's like "look! it's chris!" and then i saw this guy with similar hair to him and i was like "that's not him!" and she was like "no no! the guy with the hood!" sure enough, there was chris martin. :o

so they're walking and i'm hello, come on let's go catch up with them. so i wait like 30 seconds and then people come to their senses and go to them. so i'm like "hi chris!" and he was like hey, sorry we can't talk, we're on our way to an interview. but we'll come by later"

 

 

so sure enough an hour or two later he comes back with jonny. they skip the WHOLE end of the line and came directly to us :o :D my god.

 

so he's like "alright what do you want?" (later some girl told me she was thinking "to get naked" :lol: ) but yeah, he signed some stuff, didn't take pictures with anyone as far as i know. we got some of him (i need to get them developed) and then jonny was just like hiding so chris was like, come on jonny! so then jonny signed some stuff and after chris left, he was in a little rush, jonny stayed a few minutes and took pictures. I TOOK ONE WITH HIM!

and i'm sorry jo, i forgot to tell him that you wanted to kiss his eyes ;)

so i got my coldplay shirt signed, and mindy got autographs on paper.

 

so then time goes by, apparently there were 3 people that were on message boards, i forget who was on which.

but one guy knew my name! he was like "i recognize your picture". kinda creepy but still pretty cool. and his friend was like "ooh you won the contest right?" and im just like yeah :D

 

soo then....we play cards, go to loblaws a bunch of times.

i was offered $1000 US for my pair of tickets. mindy's still in shock that she turned it down :lol: i got reaaaaaally cold. i didn't have a sweater and the wind picked up but yeah, then around 8 we could feel drops and all that.

 

ok so i was FRONT AND CENTRE for the concert. wow. right in front of chris, had a VERY decent view of everyone. it was amazing. i can't wait to see my pictures, i'll put them up whenever i can!

i really liked the new songs, a few i haven't heard before. the opening was amazing, jonny was going all out and wow...hehe. there was one song i wasn't sure of the name, i thought it was fix you, but that was a different song that the performed later.

 

one of the best parts was during clocks. chris did a complete 360 in his seat while still singing. i hope my picture of him halfway around turns out good :D but i don't know because of all the lights. so they all looked fantastic if i do say so myself :wink3: oh, I GOT A PICK! i waited and yelled at the people on stage to get them off chris' piano and FINALLY they did. and i bought a poster, the shirts were $40 canadian and i didn't have that much. the poster's nice, it's all black and white except for the writing in green and the bands on chris' fingers are in colour so i really love it.

 

ummmm i'm tired now, so i'll be off to bed. i really liked what i heard of the new songs, fix you is awesome for sure out of the ones i havn't heard.....but that's the only one i know the name of really..they did a message and till kingdom come.

and AHH! they did warning sign! soooo amazing! :D

I am so jealous!!

ahhh!!! you are SO lucky

I remember when I went to see Blur at the Kool Haus, they came out too and signed stuff. I love when bands do that.

 

You went really early. How did you manage to get front centre if you were the 10th in line?

who knows. :lol: well i think some stopped for coat check, and some for merch.

sounds like you had an awesome time :)

 

you don't know what new songs they played?

 

EDIT: nevermind, i just saw the set list.

my shirt! :D

 

Lovely!

nice nice nice, :D

Great story! :D I am glad you had a good time!

Awwww wow! sigh. Jealous! glad you had a good time, i hope i win one of these competitions...

it was amazing :) :D

now i need to decide if i'm ever going to wear my shirt again (besides tomorrow)

oh, i forgot to mention i shook chris' hand :D

shool?

OMG!!!! Are you one of the twins? The 14 year old twins who are turning 15 this Friday?!!! I'm Tim, that guy RIGHT AT THE FRONT. Hahaha, I'll write my thoughts tomorrow when it's not 1:10 AM and I have to wake up at 06:00 for work...

 

From what I wrote down, the set list was basically:

 

the song that sounds like 2001: A Space Odysset

Politik

God Put A Smile Upon Your Face

Speed of Sound

Warning Sign

Yellow

some song that said something about "cause i feel lost"

The Scientist

'Till Kingdom Come

Clocks

What If

A Message

In My Place

Fix You

I'm glad you had fun. Thanks for sharing!

sounds great!!!!I`m glad they were nice with you and the other fans... :)

 

I want to see your pics!! ;)

 

 

 

I`m only happy when it rains in Mexico city:Zu

Woooooowwwww!!!! I feel so envious!!!

You talked to Chris and Jonny!!!!! :)

It wouldn;t be a coldplay toronto thread without Andrew... yah the twins were there in the front of the line too... we all had one great 9 hour day of waiting in line... It was extremely cool of Chris and Johnny to come talk to us early in the day.. I love it when a band gives time for thei hardcore fans... especially when it's my fav band.. and when they refer to another of my fav bands Arcade Fire during the show.. having Chris practically hoving voer us at times during the show was awesome... but for anyone who was there is it just me or does Chris boardline hump his piano during clocks.. that's crazy!!!

Yes, yes yes! That was hilarious, I wasn't really looking at Chris at that point in Clocks (Guy and Will were distracting me) but then my friend tapped me on my shoulder and was like "Look at what Chris is doing!" and I did and it was highly amusing. My friend, "What I would give to be that piano stool....sigh"
