February 19, 200917 yr wow you were so close!! and I am cracking up at the first picture... it looks like Chris is just sitting there petting that light :lol:
February 19, 200917 yr Just a quickie before sleep. not got time to read the posts which came before, so if any duplication, sorry. Ian's probably twittered most of the highlights. will compile proper report when get back to Manchester tomorrow. absolutely surreal & awesome. queued for 7 hours, before doors opened. Had ace time with all the coldplayers in the queue. lots of time to chat, check out twitter. as we were so close to the front of the queue, we were front row in front og=f Jonny. Looks like we have some awesome pictures to share. Killers were great. Coldplay were better, obviously :p Al Murray (pub landlord ) did a bit of gap filling whilst the roadies worked like trojans to get the kit up. My highlight was when Gary Barlow joined our boys on stage for BAck For Good. I am ashamed to admit, I went into complete fan girl mode and screamed like a girl. I have never screamed like that in my life, and I blame Chris for ending the main set with Fix You, which had made me a bit emotional. The last song with Coldplay, Killers, Brandon Flowers, & Gary Barlow was so surreal, I wouldn't believe it had happened if I didn't have pics. After the show, we managed to talk to Phil, in a reverse Romeo & Juliet moment!! We spotted him on the balcony so yelled up, and he sat on the edge of the balcony to exchange a few words with us. that's all for now. night night :kiss:

February 19, 200917 yr http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ip_-DW1IYN8 WILL! ~drools~ I feel like I haven't seen him drum in so long, which is weird because I just watched him today at the brits, but thank you soooo much for these videos! they are amazing. :D
February 19, 200917 yr War child gig [PICS] [VIDEO] [AUDIO] [GIG] I'm sorry I have opened a new topic but I have so much material for this wonderful evening that it's better if I put all in a separate topic where you can see/watch/listen/download everything It isn't an alternative discussion place, it's simply a divulgation of all my material However: I've just came back from the best concert of my life with both my favourite bands playing A unique experience, unrepeatable! Ok, I knew it was gonna be a special concert but I couldn't imagine something like this! Killers were great: 9/10 Very good, even if short, setlist: 1.Spaceman 2.Somebody told me 3.For reasons unknown 4.Human 5.This is your life 6.Read my mind 7.Mr brightside 8.When you were young Surprisingly no All these things that I've done! The set was storming, really beautiful. There was a prestigious public in the balcony: Natalie Imbruglia, The Edge, Phil Harvey..etc etc Present to me! I took Ronnie's drumstick when he threw it!!! A bit of waiting until the next act.. and there is a kind of stupid comedian (some says pub's landlord, baahh) The balcony gets more and more crowded Lights fade away and there is Strauss' Waltz Danubio playing! Ta na na na na na na ta na na na na na na... 1.Life in technicolor 2.Violet hill 3.Clocks 4.In my place 5.Yellow 6.42 7.Lost! 8.Fix you Unfortunately eight songs again but Coldplay will be back for an encore! 9.Viva la vida So far they played perfectly. Chris is doing great (ok he made a Mistake at the piano during the ending of Lost! :P) Viva la vita was so powerful that everybody sang as loud as s/he could. Neil Tennant (Pet shop boys) kept singing it from the balcony for so much longer that Chris had to go to his synth and play it again. Is it finsihed? No no.. they even put an extra mic stande close to Chris' one. IT'S GARY BARLOW!!! AHHHHHHHHH And Coldplay are playing BACK FOR GOOD! Is it finished now? NOoooooooo!!! .................. !!!!!!!!!!! Killers come back to the tage and, with Brandon in casual dress, he starts singing at the piano: When there's nowhere else to run Is there room for one more son One more son If you can hold on If you can hold on, hold on Incredible duet Coldplay/Killers But it's not finished.. PAUL HEWSON CAME IN!!! (known to the most as Bono Vox) And now? Chris call gary again! So we have Chris, Brandon, Bono and Barlow! Among the public Gwenny was singing loudly :) I've take a lot of pics, these are only some of those that I will finish to put tomorrow! I have the videos, I have the bootleg..give me a bit of time! :) Here are some of the videos and pictures :) [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0hvCk2zZ3qU]YouTube - Coldplay - Back for good feat.
