[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUH0yotUOhU]YouTube - Papp-Coldplay, Budapest[/ame]

Great show, great atmosphere. We travelled 250 kms from the Eastern part of the Country. And met a lot of really nice people there, mostly from abroad. We wee lucky to stand at the end of the runway where they played 3 songs(GPSUYF, Talk, and that piano song i don't know the title of), the huge globes, and the Butterflies were amazing. Some lovely moment: like the singing on the "balcony", Chris1s Hungarian and many more. It was amazing and unforgettable. i'm still collecting my thoughts...

P.S. In one moment, after the butterflies and Lovers In Japan I yelled out YOU'RE THE BEST! and Chris looked at me and said THANKS MAN!

 

Oh, that's so cool, yay!

omfg I don't see politik on that set list :stunned:

It was an INCREDIBLE night, I was in front row, toke some pics, though it wasnt allowed

 

Coldplay were amazing, and they loved the Budapest crowd, they were really amazed and said that they will come again very soon.

hahaha thats hilarious... poor Chris... having an off day :P

Strawberry Swinger just came home after 2 days of constant traveling, anticipating etc. Dead tired.

 

The concert was amazing, I still can't believe I was there. It's just that I was so damn tired that I couldn't even be excited as I wanted to be :( :( :(

 

That's why I hope they come to Serbia, cuz I traveled a lot to get to Budapest, and then waited till the night for the concert.

 

I literally came home 5 mins ago, still in my shoes,which I , by the way, had to take off when the concert started and put them in my bag,as my legs were KILLING ME!

 

I did catch a cold though.

 

Tired, sick and traveling to Montenegro tonight for Madonna's concert. But still , all I can say is that Coldplay...

 

...

 

...

 

wait a minute, I am speechless.

Can't find the right word. Nothing short of amazing. Being there, seeing them in front of me (oh yeah, I managed to get to the standing area :sneaky::sneaky::sneaky:) ... seemed so normal. Like I knew them my whole life. And damn, I wish I would meet them, and collaborate with them one day.

 

Chris Martin is so full of energy,it's inspiring. He didn't stop at all.

 

Guy seems shy.

 

Will seems modest.

 

But Johnny seems a bit self-centered to me. Not once did he smile or anything.

 

Even when the Goddamn irritating British guy next to me kept screaming JOHNNY! in the most annoying voice ever.

 

Not only that, but he also yelled COLDPLAY 500 times in such a retarded way, I couldn't help myself but yell SHUT THE FUCK UP right in front of his face.

 

Oh,don't get me wrong, I don't think British people are irritating lol.

But this guy killed it. And I almost killed him.

 

YELLLOW!

YELLOOOW!

YELLLOOOW!

- hearing him yelling like a 12-year old girl , as the song was starting, I felt an incredible urge to beat the hell out of him. But I didn't. I just continued to enjoy, even though I was tired to death, and stayed amazed with the brilliance that the band is.

 

The setlist was the same, which disappointed me.

 

I yelled my HEART out for them to play Square One, but no...

 

Not the right order,I am sure, cuz who's crazy to remember 20 songs in order?

 

1.Life In Technicolor

2.Violet Hill

3.Clocks

4.In My Place

5.Speed Of Sound

6.Cemeteries Of London

7.42

8.Fix You

9.Strawberry Swing

10.Chinese Sleep Chant

11.God Put A Smile Upon Your Face/Talk

12.The Hardest Part / Postcards From Far Away (I think)

13.Viva La Vida

14.Lost

15.Death Will Never Conquer

16.Scientist

17.Viva La Vida remix/ Politik / Glass Of Water intro on piano (I think, dunno for sure)

18.Lovers In Japan

19.Death And All His Friends

20.Yellow/Escapist (not sung,just played back)

 

That would be it.Really could have added Yes, Square One, Amsterdam, REIGN OF LOVE (Pallavi I wish you luck :( )...

 

But all in all,this is my first Coldplay concert (and God I hope not the last one) and I was more than thrilled to hear even Chinese Sleep Chant (there, I admitted it).

 

So, basically, they could have played Slipknot's songs and I'd still enjoy. Yep.

 

And that's all I can write for now. I am really,really,reaaaallly tired. Will post pics and hopefully clips today.

 

And a full review, just when I take a nap. Please have mercy on me lol...

 

P.S. In one moment, after the butterflies and Lovers In Japan I yelled out YOU'RE THE BEST! and Chris looked at me and said THANKS MAN!

 

LOL!

 

OMG it was so cool hehe.

 

But the best part was when a deep,male voice was heard yelling I LOVE YOU CHRIS! And then Chris was like. OK,man, thanks, I love you too!

 

LMFAO!

 

Anyway, this is an experience I won't forget. And yeah, 90 minutes is realllly short, especially for a band and a show this good. My life is better from yesterday. Enriched.

 

So full review coming later. Cya...zzzzz...

 

P.P.S. Damn it. Just wanna send kisses to Viva La Vida - TEA from CROATIA - a REALLY cool girl , who I hope to visit in her lovely town of Split.

 

Definitely zzz.

 

thanks for your review Lol! great ,you said for Chris you're the best and he looked at you and said Thanks man!:shocked2:

 

its great!

 

Yeah i wish they play Reign of love,well i will not complain.

 

it sounded like a wonderful show wow!:kiss:

here i want to say some thing i like one thing in their entire setlist Chris playing The hardest part himself which once he described as horrible song,and also he knows that guy and jonny doesn't like that song in their band but still he is playing it for our sake means i like that song.

 

and he also described it as most beautiful song in the Koln concert.:D

 

the only wish for me is Reign of love i am saving Yes for US shows i go and wanna keep a banner for it by myself...

 

 

and also still playing Chinese Sleep chant,Life in technicolor,Violet hill,Gpasuyf new version and Talk piano which are the most exciting part of the concert to me,that i always listen with more interest.:)

i like all those songs.

Love it!!!!!

Hello guys!

 

Well I am still shocked and can't believe that I saw them yesterday! I am still not at the home right now (I will be there tomorrow) and I will try to write some good report now. We came in Budapest around 1pm and already was in the front of arena around 5pm. I didn't want to manage first row because we had (me any my friends) cameras and digital cameras, and also wanted to buy t-shirts and stuff before the concert. Anyway I have to say that after fix you they took camera of my friend but tnx god she got it back. So you can expect some good dvd mix for few days/weeks. I have to say that I'm pretty amazed with the concert and the setlist and all. I tried to not watch new concerts and listen any bootleg at all so whole concert was big surprise for me. I am glad that I heard all my favorite songs (including number one - yellow) and now, after this concert I love them more... I was listening their songs on mp3 this morning and it was different feeling than before. I think I am becoming their fan so it's about a time to get their b-sides and other stuff haha.

 

strawberry swing, I am glad that I met you there before, during the concert and after haha, I am glad that you had good time as I did and feel sorry for that British dude, I didn't have any problems at all, I was in about 10 row on the left side (oh i love that place) and in the front was only little girls so I had really good view.

 

sorry for my bad english, and you can expect really good clips on youtube tomorrow and some nice pics from me.

 

big kiss to everyone who was there!

Jonny was tripping over it to at pretty much the same time. :stunned:

 

It looks like Chris only hit him on the hat, thank God.

 

 

 

 

1. Guy did It on purpose I just know it :lol:

 

2 he hits him with his own guitar...

 

3... one of these days chris is gonna knock jonny over the edge...

 

 

 

 

 

This is only acceptable if it is over the edge and onto me so I can catch him. I don't want him getting hurt! :wink3: So Chris, you can only do this at the Florida shows. Not any other time please.
