September 24, 200817 yr [Oxfam Blog] Wet Wien. I’m a little blurry-eyed, sitting here inside the depths of the Stadhalle, Wien (Vienna). Maybe due to the combination of dim underground walls, and the bright glow of a laptop screen. Outside, the lunch time catering is in full flow. Everyone refuelling after load-in, getting ready for the bands’ imminent arrival. We made it to Austria in great time. Apparently arriving at 5am.. I didn’t surface on arrtival.. I awoke to the sound of heavy rain drops on the roof of the bus. I sleep in a top bunk, so it felt particularly cosy, being so close to the outside, but wrapped in a duvet. Steffan, our bus driver, decided to wash the bus this morning. Apparently he was being blamed for the rain. “Whenever you wash your bus.. it rains. I think we should try washing the buses in the desert, and see if it gets a bit more temperate!” We are on the last show of a set of 3, in 3 different countries. It makes the tour feel even more like it’s flashing by before my eyes. So much to see, and literally, so little time. I am looking forward to the pause in Munich for over 24 hours! Oxfam is working with some volunteers from the ‘Clean Clothes Campaign’ today. I think we will try to go for the sign-up record. I feel like it’s going to be a good day.. despite the rain. http://www.oxfamblogs.org/coldplay/?p=62
September 24, 200817 yr Viel Spaß ihr lieben Österreicher! :D I will watch the Austrian programme later on. Perhaps they have a report about Coldplay in the news. ;)

September 24, 200817 yr ahhhh I'm so torn...! I wanna see the setlist.. but at the same time I don't...aahhh!
September 24, 200817 yr Auch ein Weichei kann für Stimmung sorgen Coldplay bot in der Stadthalle eine starke Show Wien - Die britische Band Coldplay zählt zu den letzten Zugpferden des angeschlagenen Musikverlags EMI. Außerdem besitzt die Formation den wenig schmeichelhaften, Ruf, die "uncoolste Band des Planeten" zu sein. Begründet liegt dies in den nicht selten übersensiblen Texten des Sängers und Gitarristen Chris Martin, Ehemann von Hollywood-Star Gwyneth Kate Paltrow. Martin steht auch wegen seinem sozialen Engagements bei NichtFans unter schwerstem Weichei-Verdacht. Das ist den Fans der Band logischerweise egal und live ziehen die verregneten Londoner auch meistens viel Publikum an. So auch in der gut gefüllten Wiener Stadthalle, in der sie am Mittwochabend gastierten und für Begeisterung sorgten. Coldplay präsentierte gut zwei Dutzend Songs quer durch ihr Gesamtwerk und bewarb dadurch auch den im heurigen Sommer erschienen, vierten Longplayer Viva La Vida. Mit der ersten Nummer des Albums, "Life in Technicolor" , wurde auch das Konzert eröffnet. Danach folgten Schlag auf Schlag die großen Hits wie "Violet Hill" , "Clocks" und "In My Place" , bei denen die meisten Fans mitsingen konnten - und dies auch taten. Die Band bot eine professionelle Pop-Show ohne Kanten, Überraschungen und Fehler. Die Bühne war bis auf ein paar Stehlampen leer. Dafür boten eine riesige Leinwand sowie die im Raum hängenden großen Kugeln ausreichend Fläche für die Projizierung von spektakulärer Visuals.

Not a lot of information... strong show, no surprises, no mistakes. :)
