Aww Chris is lovely, if only his haters could see him like that :nice:

I loved the glance between Jonny and Chris when Chris had the harmonica :heart:

 

I can't wait for LIJ.....that was the best bit :dance:

I have to say that the crowd singing sounded very good at the end of fix you! :nice:

 

LIJ YAY!

All these close ups of Jonny :dead:

 

That butterfly confetti looked like it got EVERYWHERE! :stunned: Wonder which poor guy had to clean it up after :P

The confetti just kept coming!!!! At Brixton, there were UV butterflies..... :dance:

 

*sigh* they showed so much Jonny, Guy and Will.....awesome :)

Jo Whiley annoying? im not sure what really qualifies as being/not being annoying...but i think she she is possibly one of the least annoying people in the world. Love this repeat tho, they did different camera angles, and also i think they may have retrived the sound of the bell in viva la vida cause you coudnt hear that before (i may be wrong on this tho). Brings back memories ...if you can bring back memories after only a few days, cause im still not sure its sunk in yet (im still smiling randomly about it!).

All these close ups of Jonny :dead:

too many close ups of his hands and not enough of his face. :angry: That camera man loved Will, he was showing him all the time. :cool:

I loved the shot of Guy from behind during LIJ, I think it was....it went on for ages, while he was bobbing around :dead:

My favourite shot has to be of either Chris and Will singing together or of Will when Chris calls him the best drummer in the world. :blush:

Yeah...the Chris/Will shots were just lovely! :)

 

I think the thing I loved about the BBC gig was that it felt like we were all in their little tent (the stage), well from where I stood anyway. It was crazy.

I have a confession to make. I (for the first time in my life I believe) 'SQUEED' :laugh3: I'd never quite understood what the term meant until now...

 

and the cause of the 'SQUEE' was in fact the following:

Good God! They are trying to kill us

:bomb::bomb::bomb:

Coldplay never let me sleep haha - I was just about to go to bed last night when I came across the concert on TV again :)

 

Having watched it a few times now I have to say that the crowd at the front were incredible - it was hard to get a sense of that at the back, where people were very quiet and lifeless.

 

Was it just me or was there a lot of post-production on the sound that made it sound far less live?

 

Really hope someone recorded this in high quality and will make a torrent.

By the way, did anyone see that guy who looked like a bank manager standing in the middle of the crowd?? He stuck out like a sore thumb!!:P

YES I did! I had a little chuckle to myself hehe

There were at least three financial types from the city there. One was right behind me, he was quite excited! Then of course there was Nick from the Apprentice without his wig :D

Nick without his wig. :D

 

Also, in the TV broadcast during Trouble, when the audience starts to sing "And they spun a web for me", the camera goes over the audience and there is one elderly gentleman somewhere in the middle singing shamelessly along. He makes me happy for some strange reason. :)

YES I did! I had a little chuckle to myself hehe

 

Do you think he went to the wrong gig by mistake? :P

Maybe he was supposed to be at the Royal Festival Hall.:rolleyes:
