^Seems Chavi and the fans who run at the opening of the gates as to be front row, actually did not spot (of course) that at the same moment Jonny and Guy were going for a jogging run around the corner !

 

Uh. I don't get it either. Where were they running? Outside the hall?

the third one is the good one ! i know it cuz i was front row and i remember when they had Cemeteries after Clocks and that Yellow was after.... and i know Chineese Sleep Chant was after Speed of Sound cuz i was calling a friend during this song and i was like "okay cuz i'm nice i will let her listenning the next song" and it was Chineese Sleep Chant ... and obviously i remember the techno version of "talk" and the zenith became a giant nightclub for 2 Minutes ha ha x)

The concert in Strasbourg was my first Coldplay concert too, it was a very great gig :happy:

 

If I remember correctly, from this time, I become again addicted to the band by following their news regularly, listening to them more often than usual, etc. :D

What a concert can do :D (not sure if this sentence is correct though :thinking:)

Thanks for the welcome :)

 

I was standing and I remember when the boys go on the C stage, up to the seated people, I saw them closely, like maybe 2 meters from me (well, for me it was close, plus they were running, so it was a quick close view of them :lol:) It was still weird in a good way :D

 

And you were you seated ou standing?

I was standing as well!

The friend I was with is afraid of being in large crowds so we were standing more to the back where the technicians area was...

We still had a great view.

That concert is responsible for all the crazy things I did since then... and my bank account status :lol:

 

Have a nice time here on the board but be aware that it is highly addictive!! :)

 

 

Did you take pictures??

Yep in the back the crowd was less tight, I was there too on the left side (considering you're watching the stage) and the view was fine for me too :) (no tall person in front of me :lol:)

And I understand you, a concert can change your behaviour towards a band (in a good way I mean) :nice:

 

I'm not yet addicted to this board but I have to be careful considering what you've said :D

 

I have taken pictures with a cellphone and their all crappy :sad:

It was my first time at the Zénith so I stupidly follow the rule "no camera" and once inside, a lot of people had their camera :veryangry2:

So now, I've learnt the lesson and I take my camera with me!

HAhaha, I can't believe it!!

I made the same mistake!! :stunned:

 

I didn't want to risk to have to go back to my car... so I left it there.

The Zénith is such a nice venue... I took some pics from the outside.

 

After the concert we sat down on a bench, completely in sweat from dancing singing and clapping. We watched all the other people leaving and couldn't believe what an amazing night it has been :heart:

 

The crowd wasn't that big either - I think we can consider ourselves lucky that we've seen that concert!

Plus - they played "Don't Panic"!!! :dance:

 

What's your name?

I'm Anna! :nice:

Nice to meet you Anna, I'm Marie! :nice:

 

Yeah, we were lucky people: not so much people inside, great spot considering I was there like 1 hour before Coldplay played, great venue (from the outside the Zénith looks like a orange Dragibus to me :lol:), plus it was the first date of their European Tour, "Don't Panic" with Jonny singing (so great :happy:), "The Dubliners" at the end... Great memories, it's nice sharing them :happy:
