ahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! That must have been the best frigging night of my life!

 

Pardon me if I'm not very coherent, I'm still on cloud nine :D

 

Chris and I got there about 11am, there were 2 other people queueing up to enter at a different entrance. We met Imelda (setiapkecil) and her friend who came to queue up with us.

 

Was a long wait under the Perth sun, I got several shades darker within the afternoon hahaha I have a tan line at my sleeve (I wore my white DAAHF tee :D).

 

Gates opened about 6.15pm. I wasn't the first one INTO the Dome, but somehow I managed to run/walk past everyone else in front of me to be the first at the barrier. So front row centre it was :dance:

 

2 opening acts, I wasn't too blown away by Decoder Ring, I've heard better post rock music. Mercury Rev, well, it took time for me to get used to them, but they were alright in the end.

 

Straight to Coldplay now, the boys started out with LiT, Violet Hill, Clocks and IMP, same as the previous concerts. Not much variation in the setlist. I'll get Chris to post the setlist, I left mine in my room hahaha.

 

I was holding up a sign that said 'Jonny is my Guitar Hero' to the dismay of Chris beside me :laugh3:. The guy working the video camera told me to hold it up and he took a shot of it :lol: Chris saw it during the ending of Violet Hill and he winked at me and gestured to Jonny. I tried hard to get Jonny's attention, the people beside me helped as well, but it was only after DAAHF when they were leaving the stage before the encore that he say it. He smiled so sweetly at me :heart:

 

Of all the songs, LiJ was definitely my favourite live. I managed to stuff my bag full of butterflies at the end of the gig :lol: The Scientist too, and LiT II.

 

Chris got Chris' (:laugh3:) guitar pick.

 

At the end of the gig, we tried getting Hoppy's attention but he had earplugs on so he couldn't hear us. The security shooed us away from the barrier, but I ran to the sound booth and asked them for a setlist. This was when the soundman told me he saw my banner just now from the stage and it was the best banner he's seen so far this tour. Managed to get a setlist for myself and Chris :dance:

 

*takes a breath*

 

How AWESOME is that :dance:

 

I'm so late!

 

but congrats, I'm so so so happy for you!! you deserve it :D

OMG Min! :stunned: what an amazing story! I'm so happy for you and the banner is epic, but what happened to 'jonny is my jaffa cake?' :lol:

 

how cool is it to be on the screen? was there anyone there you knew in the back of the arena maybe? cause I got recognised after being on it, and my boss saw that was funny!

 

OOOOOH yes, something to note guys.

 

The new jackets. They bring them out for the encore on a clothes hook stand, and they put them on in front of us :D!!!

 

now that's just torture :P

 

He threw it at me :D!!! It landed short and the security guard picked (pardon the pun :P) it up for me :D!!

 

I have a 40 second clip of Will drumming during viva, uploading now.

 

The videos came out really well but didn't take enough (I find if I take too many videos I concentrate on watching the screen too much and don't enjoy the concert ;)).

 

Cool, and we understand about the vids don't worry, you shoudl enjoy the concert!
