Jonny is the sweetest, nicest, most chill dude. Like you have heard.

 

We couldn't see hardly anything through those tinted windows yesterday, but somehow today, I whipped the Jonny sign out just as they pulled up (which was literally a minute after we ran to the spot) and even through the tinted glass, we could see Jonny smiling at us and nodding. Because of the sign. I could see his teeth, his sunglasses, and hat. His killer smile managed to glow through black-tinted glass.

 

When they walked up to us, I could barely talk, so I just asked Jonny to sign his sign. He said "Sure, I'd love to." In his beautiful accent. He spoke very softly.

 

So I said "OK here, sign anywhere you want." And he said "wherever you want."

 

...

 

 

 

:stunned: Shit.

 

So I said "OK, sign uh, here" and gave him a corner near his name on the front.

 

Then he signed it and even wrote a little love note:

I was shaking everywhere. Thankfully, Mel was talking to Guy about seeing him on Michigan Ave walking. At one point, Guy trots over around Jonny to me and asks "Did you make the sign?" And I told him "No we had it professionally made online and shipped out to us." I had to ask Mel for the name of the website again b/c Guy was talking to me and I was brain-tied.

 

Then I said, "Oh yeah, Guy please sign" So he signed his name on Jonny's sign too. I'm not sure if that came before or after he asked whether we made the sign.

 

At some point Guy said "Jonny we gotta get a picture of you holding your sign. Here, stand over here with your sign, and you two (Mel and I ) stand next to him."

 

...

 

 

Because Guy wants our picture with his camera he just happens to have with him. Where he pulled it out from I have no idea. He takes a few. "Wait, one more" Guy says.

 

Then Guy asks me if I want him to take a picture of Jonny and I with MY camera for me. Of course I agree. And he takes that picture I posted above.

 

 

Yeah, Guy took a pic of Jonny and me with my camera.

 

While he was shooting just Jonny and I, Jonny asked me to hold the sign, because he couldn't keep it straight or something like that.:laugh3:

 

So I held the sign and he leaned against me. I didn't even have to try to molest him. He touched me. I will be smiling for the rest of my life.

 

I told my friend the other day that I was gonna kiss Jonny. I thought about giving him a quick peck on the shoulder, but I just couldn't do it. He was already so embarassed from the sign.

 

Besides, his arm was leaning on me.

 

We had the best Coldplay karma we could possibly want. God smiled on us.

 

I just wanted to see Jonny, but I am very glad Guy was there and did what he did. Because I was so nervous, I could barely ask for what I wanted. Guy did it all for me. He was so generous and helpful (to my Jonny obsession.) He was so nice.

 

Thank you Guy and thank you JONNY!!!!!!!!!!!

are you curled up with the sign in bed right now?

 

 

No. Not yet. I'm here! With you guys! But soon, very soon.:sneaky:

 

AWWWWW!! You, and Johnny :D:D:D:D:D

 

(ACE banner, btw!)

 

 

Thanks! But Mel and Thalia designed it. I just said we HAVE TO make the "Reign of Jonny" one when we were deciding what signs to make. Mel has been unbelievably gracious by letting me hold the sign and get it signed by Jonny. And letting me keep it. I cannot even fathom how generous she is, nor can I describe how much this means to me. It means the whole world to me Mel. I cannot thank you enough. I owe you immensely.

I was talking to Guy while Jonny was signing your stuff. I was asking him about his camera and told him I traveled from Houston for the shows. And then I asked if we could take some pics of them and that's when he said he wanted pics of Jonny with the sign. :D

So, wow. I am way too tired to write the review this show deserves so it'll have to wait til tomorrow.

 

Melanie, Lori, and Angie it was very nice meeting all of you. Melanie and Lori thanks for the awesome buttons and the great Jonny-Guy adventure you shared with us before the show. I'm glad true fans got one of the best Coldplay-filled days any one person can have.

 

And if I think I heard it correctly, I think the name of the new song is called 'The Dublinist' then again I was high on Coldplay telling me they had a new song for us.

 

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong =]

I think you are correct. At the show it sounded like Goldrush, but on the video sounds like something else and I think you are winner of the name the new Coldplay song. :P

 

I can not express enough my hatred for that fricking camera crane thing. :veryangry:

THANKS!!!

 

What's the deal with these new "blue grass-ish" songs? The Dubliners and Death Will Never Conquer are songs I would expect from a country artist. Not that Im complaining. Just sorta strange little "ditties" coming from them.

and everyone was worried about them going rap :P

 

OK folks I have to shut down. Gotta finish packing and head to O'Hare to catch my flight back to Houston. I will upload my videos and stuff as soon as possible.
