She's alive

Another great night although I did think the Liverpool show had the edge on it,I was sat in block H which was quite a way back but that I could cope with the problem was that there was a tall bloke in front of me who kept leaning over to put his arm around his girlfriend hence making it awkward for me to see,I also noticed a lot of people walking out for a beer when Chinese sleep chant started,anyway besides all of this I still had a great time and sang and danced right through the show,and the best bit was I got a SETLIST of the sound man.

If the two shows I've seen are anything to go by then I'm sure the summer shows are going to blow us away.

 

a soundman setlist? cool :D does it have any interesting squiggles on it?

I have a couple in reserve in case anything mega happens tonight :D

 

I tried to get you some Will pics but he was a bit too far away. And he kept going blurry :lol: I'll be uploading the rest to photobucket at some point today.

Coldplay's UK Tour Hits Manchester: Exclusive Photos

 

Coldplay's UK arena tour arrived in Manchester last night (December 11th) – and you can see exclusive photographs on Gigwise.

 

The band wowed a sold out crowd at the Manchester Evening News Arena.

 

Dressed in their distressed military uniforms, the group rattled through tracks from their new album 'Viva La Vida and Death and All His Friends'.

 

But it was Coldplay's more established hits such as 'Yellow' and 'Fix You' that created the biggest response from the crowd.

 

Their tour continues tonight (December 12th) in Manchester before arriving in London on Sunday (December 14th).

 

You can see highlights from the concert in Manchester below or click here to see extensive coverage.

What are the best settings to have your camera on at gigs? All of mine tend to come out really dark and rubbish.
