Aw, I'm in Colonnade 26 Row 17 for tonight's show. I've never been to the Forum before. For some reason I didn't imagine it being quite that high up. It sounds like you still had a great time though, and that's good to hear. I've been a little bummed about my seat. I'm just happy to have a seat for the show, period. Its still good to hear about how much you enjoyed the show, even from the higher up seats.

If you're in Colonnade 26, you'll be a section closer to the center. You'll probably have a pretty good view of the stage ;) In our section, we didn't even notice there was a screen at the stage until the concert was over. You'll probably be able to see the screen haha.

And row 17 is closer, so I think you'll be fine! It doesn't seem like it would be a big difference, but The Forum is pretty small so you'll probably have decent seats.

Either way, you'll have a really good time :)

Have fun!

Thanks again, now I can get some sleep......... finally!

sounds like it's bigger than the venue :stunned:

If you've got seated tickets and get turned away you can always return it to the car or something, and not lose your place?

 

:rolleyes: :laugh3: Hmm... I can try that. I'll most likely get turned down, though, I think... oh well, I can always bring my mom's small pocket camera, which also has video options.

Hahah, that's good.

Yeah, it's crazy... it sounds really different. I like how they kind of mixed up their old songs.

No problem ;)

And it was all mellow

COLDPLAY kicked off their world tour in spectacular fashion — after ditching the electronic wizardry they just spent six months creating.

The lads took the brave decision to sack-off the expensive computer graphics and video screens just days before the start of their gruelling 67-date Viva La Vida campaign.

 

And it wasn’t missed for an instant.

 

I was the only Brit journalist at the Stateside gig on Monday night and have to applaud them for their bold move.

 

At their dress rehearsal concert at Wembley Arena last month they relied heavily on a constant, dizzying stream of film clips and visual trickery to accompany the music.

But in LA they dropped the hi-tech screen until the final two songs.

 

Instead a giant canvas of the album artwork hid it for the majority of the gig and the stage was lit by basic, subtle lighting.

 

This is an era when arena acts such as KANYE WEST — who was in the audience — spend bags of cash on digital displays to wow fans and outdo rivals.

 

But scrapping the gadgetry in favour of a more intimate feel was a brilliant move.

I think the expression is “less is more”.

 

It made the arena feel a quarter of the size but the crowd enjoyed it four times as much.

 

And as a result it seems the band will abandon the technology for the rest of the tour — and why would they need it when CHRIS MARTIN has matured into the ultimate frontman.

 

The sound of 18,000 Americans roaring along to anthems In My Place and Viva La Vida was incredible.

 

Elated Chris thanked the crowd for their part in a special night as they finally took their record-smashing Viva La Vida album on the road.

 

He said: “We couldn’t have asked for anything better on a hot July night in LA. “Some audiences are s*** and we have to lie. But between you and me, you’re grade A.

“This is the first night of the tour since we became the new version of the band.

 

“This is where we first started our journey in America so we couldn’t think of anywhere we’d rather be.”

 

There was just one negative point.

 

The giant globes Chris had been talking up for months were less spectacular than I had expected.

 

He claims to have splashed out nearly £1million on the massive spheres which hang from the ceiling.

 

I’d ask for my money back, Chris. They seemed little more than six over-sized lava lamps to me.

 

But the pacing of the show is now even better than at the London warm-up.

 

A barnstorming rendition of Lost showed the track is set to become a live classic.

 

Fix You raised the hairs on the back of my neck and Lovers In Japan was a perfect way to finish.

 

The lads swing by our way for a series of live dates in December.

 

If you want to see a band at the height of their powers, do not miss your chance.
