August 18, 200520 yr Thanks - your pictures from the Seattle (??) show are fantastic; they look similar to the Clark County show, so I might substitute them, if you don't mind! Last night we were about 20 rows back in the center section, on the aisle that was sort of between where Chris & Jon were. Great, great seats. And since I'm short, I was SOO thankful for that aisle - I could move back & forth depending on who stood in front of me and still see! That's damn near a miracle for me, you have to understand - I'm always behind the tall people... Anyway, great shots of the Tuesday show. I wish I'd brought my camera last night!! :( Oh, well - I guess I know better for the next time I see them (this was the first)...
August 18, 200520 yr Author all the signs at the clark county ampitheatre said no cameras, so i can understand why not a lot of people brought cameras. i was really nervous trying to hide mine until when they were just about to let us in and told us we could bring them in as long as they weren't professional. that "take a picture" part on the screen is really the only reason i thought i could get it in, because it'd be pointless if nobody had cameras ahaha.

Really, it's my own fault for not finding this board beforehand, I'm sure I'd have realized I could've brought my camera if I'd read other people's stories first. Oh, well! Next time!!
August 19, 200520 yr Still trying to see if anyone remembered the placement of Rush of Blood on the Whiteriver show since it was a late addition to the setlist and as such didn't make it on mine!
August 19, 200520 yr Correct Set List Square One Politik Yellow God Put a Smile on Your Face Speed of Sound Low A rush of blood to the head The Hardest Part Everything's Not Lost White Shadows The Scientist Till Kingdom Come Ring of Fire (Johnny Cash song) Don't Panic Clocks Talk Encore: Swallowed by the Sea In My Place Fix You
August 19, 200520 yr Oh and by the way I was at both of the shows. Went to the seattle show...loved it so much I came home and bought tickets for the portland show and drove down the next day. Woot.
August 19, 200520 yr Author Oh and by the way I was at both of the shows. Went to the seattle show...loved it so much I came home and bought tickets for the portland show and drove down the next day. Woot. yap, that's what all the cool people did...
August 19, 200520 yr Yea but ebay was the way to go. I was dead center 3 rows back and I got 2 seats for 60$
August 19, 200520 yr Author dammit, i got my tickets on ebay too but they weren't that good. i was off almost all the way to the right in row r and i paid $150 for two tickets :(
August 19, 200520 yr They didn't play "The Hardest Part" at the Clark County show, don't know about Seattle (y'know, cuz I'm apparently not one of the COOL people!!) ;)
August 20, 200520 yr Author yeah, i got in line at noon, sat on dry grass for three hours, ran to get in line, waited there for a couple more hours and quickly walked to the pit. i was on my feet for 9 hours, but it was so worth it.
August 23, 200520 yr Author http://video.greatestjournal.com/blog/393 can you guys download and watch these? they're supposed to be silent because my camera's crap, but they're all i have ahaha.
August 23, 200520 yr Wow I was in the front row and Chris looked at me smiled and took my picture and than handed me the camara. I will never in my life forget that. Thats my happy ass is the front with the Green Coldplay shirt. Once in life time event. I flew up from Oakland and it was all worth it.
August 23, 200520 yr So is that picture of Will one of the backstage ones they take before shows on those cameras? That's so freaking cool... What a fabulous souvenir!
