Oooo im so excited!!!!!

Chavi and Carla are there tonight!!!!

Chavi? Really?

She told me a few weeks ago she wasn't going to another show (after the 4 shows she saw in France!!).

But it would be great for her!!!

:)

Ya thats so cool!!!

 

I dunno if she told anybody, it was kind of a last minute decision she made!!!

That is so cool!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great for her!

We'll get a bunch of pictures :)

shes caught the Coldplay live bug!! :D

shes caught the Coldplay live bug!! :D

 

Yes, probably... And we all know how it feels! ;)

Hahaha ya literally. I think this going to be 6 gigs now!!!

6??? When and where is the 6th one??

 

Yes, you have to try the standing tickets, it's an amazing (and exhausting!) experience!!! It's so good to see them so close...(I'm missing this feeling now...:()

Oh really!! Do you not have standing tickets there??

 

Yes of course!!!

And they are less expensive!!!!!!!

 

That's why everbody is waiting at the front doors from 2pm, and sometimes 9 or 10am!!

And that's why there are people collapsing during the show, because they waited standing for 10 hours sometimes... And most of the time it's sooo hot inside you can't breathe...

Yeah, freaking experience...but it's so worth it!!!!

 

And it's such a shame there are no standing tickets in the UK...I'm wondering why... I will have to seat.... :(

Ya I though I she was going to the Rotterdam gig tonight. But maybe she is just going to Antwerp, hmm!!!

 

I know I really want to do it. Wow 10 hours!!! Damn, but Its so worth it though. That would be so exciting though!!!!

Oh really!! Do you not have standing tickets there??

 

Ooops sorry, I realise I understood "do you HAVE standing tickets"....

Well, I wanted to wait for Carla and Chavi tonight, but I think I'm already too tired as I can't read properly anymore... :D

 

 

And YES, it is exciting to be standing in front row!!! :)

Oh really!! Do you not have standing tickets there??

 

not this time round

I'm going hoooooooommmmmeeee now. I hope for a fabulous setlist & review to be here when i log back on :D

Chavi and Carla together?!?!?

 

I'm really worried for Guy :laugh3::laugh3::laugh3::laugh3:

oh ididn't know Chavi was going either, that's great we will get double reviews and pics

I'm hooooooommmmme now :D Me, my micro pizza, bottle of wine, and choccies are all ready waiting for gig news

I’m surrounded by nurses in white coats!

 

Don’t worry. I’ve not been hurt (although I did take a tumble in Band v Crew football earlier..), and I have not gone mad after almost 5 weeks of touring and diminishing sleep levels.

 

The Oxfam Novib volunteers are busy hugging their way through the Coldplay crowd in the Rotterdam Ahoy arena. A few of them are having a coffee next to me, so I presume the tiredness means that it’s been going very well! Exhausted from hugging.. It must be a rare condition.

 

They have been a great group to work with. They look great, and really stand out in the crowd, which is generally a mist of Coldplay shirts and the occasional stitched replica jacket.. Hug a nurse, is about drawing attention to the need for quality healthcare worldwide. For that, we just want Coldplay fans voices.. And their hugs.

 

The ’hug a nurse’ campaign is ’FairAct #44’ for Oxfam Novib. FairActs are small, simple things that people can do to make the world a fairer, more equal and happier place. Other examples are to eat a FairTrade banana, be curious about the world around you, do something for nothing.. Wear ’clean’ clothes (which meet fair trade standards). You get the idea.

 

I just saw a volunteer nurse run across to the guy selling all those Coldplay shirts, with open arms and a big hug. It’s a really fun way to do a couple of our last shows here in Europe. Now I really am surrounded. The volunteers are coming back to the stall, to change clothes for the Coldplay show.. 10 minutes to kick off.

 

Speaking of kick-off..

 

Just a quick word on the football earlier. Band 6 - 1 Crew. I played for the band. Will Champion took home the match-ball. Maybe he’s Southampton F. C’s next star striker..

 

 

 

A big hug and a big thank you to Oxfam Novib, to Maarten and to all of your star hugging nurses! Over 1200 signatures and hugs tonight. Fantastic stuff.
