@ Kirsten: No, we were just close enough :P (Why the question mak??)

Wait for the CP pics!!!

I took some for you and some for the Jonny fans as well, so much I can tell already ;)

I am a huge fan of question marks ;) :laugh3:

 

And you have me here jumping up and down already ... ohhhh the anticipation ...!!!

I just can't wait and I guess I will include you in my bedtime prayers from now on :D

 

Although ... as already spread on Twitter, his hair is WAY TOO SHORT at the sides again :bigcry:

I am just wondering who tells him to cut it off? :(

He needs someone to tell him that it looks much better when it's longer ;)

 

But anyway ... this is O/T already :laugh3:

 

Glad that you had such a fantastic time and it sounds like you were ruling the place :)

Wow, it's already past 9pm???

I lost orientation with time... Went to bed at 2am, wide awake at 7am this morning...

 

I am not really myself!!!

And I think with the help of the others I'll remember more stuff later or they correct me.

 

 

Part 3:

 

So the Ting Tings had finished and now the interesting part began:

Watching the roadies :lol:

 

This one is taken with my other camera:

(Yes, I had two cameras with me, together with 2 batteries and enough SD cards, so much I had prepared at least :))

The shirts they have are amazing!! I want one! :lol:

 

I was testing my zoom and focus with this pic:

When they were carrying the stairs to the middle we were applauding and screaming, hint of a C-stage in the middle!!! :dance: :)

I love this pic!!!

3685124414_333f3208b2_o.jpg

 

Every time Miller was spot by us some certain girls next to me were screaming his name :laugh3:

There was a "Miller, marry me!" as well, you can probably guess who I'm talking about!

I'm so gutted the next one is blurry, sorry!!!

 

You all saw the "The old king is dead, long live the king" banner, right?

Behind each part of it were yellow hearts with names on...

 

And when Phil came... was it you Chavi or Carla?? Oh I'm sorry I can't remember!! It's all a blur at the moment!!

Ok, when he came the banner with his name on was waved and he saw it of course, he would have had to be blind to NOT see it!!

 

This is his reaction:

Touchy subject, I reckon' :laugh3:

Well he should listen to someone, don't really care who.... but that someone should tell him that he NEEDS to stop chopping off his hair :dozey:[/ot]

 

*takes a deep breath*

 

Anyways... Waiting for the rest of your story Anna :dance:

marsu, you have a Phil pic as well!!!! :heart:

AAAAAAhhhhhh

 

 

 

Part 4a:

 

aka the one you're waiting for :P

 

 

Let me say this first:

Ok, without a setlist as orientation I'd be lost writing this, keep that in mind please!!!

It felt like the whole set was only 10 minutes, it all went by so fast!

 

While the roadies were testing the instruments and setting everything up there was no music...

Finally the curtain that had been put up and two roadies were holding both lower ends!

And then "Magnificent" already started!!! :dance:

We all knew the countdown in form of 3 songs had started!

So we were singing and dancing madly!

Then that Jay-Z song came and finally THE BLUE DANUBE!!!!

 

I started filming then already, in high quality of course :)

I think there's a switch in all of our brains, suddenly you are pumped with adrenaline and all hurting feet and legs and everything else is forgotten...

Sadly that also applies to my memory a bit, so I need the other's help :lol:

 

We were all holding up the "The old king is dead, long live the king" banner at the beginning until the end of VH!!

And they all saw it! :dance:

My video is extremely shaky because I was holding up my part of the banner and still trying to film...

I didn't pay too much attention to what I was filming - seeing it with my own eyes is more important, sorry ;)

 

At the end of VH Chris sang "And if you love Michael Jackson..." "Tout le monde, ca va?" and I think he said "Bonsoir de nous".

 

Clocks was amazing as always, with the laser etc...

This was when I started taking pics but I'll post them all later altogether.

 

IMP - my absolute favourite :heart:

You've seen the Virgin17 video, haha.

It was great.

I loved Chris's little dance in front of Jonny :heart:

 

I don't know during which song it was but Chris gave us a thumbs up while walking past us! :stunned: :dance:

 

I loved the fast version of Yellow, all in all Chris was singing a bit differently last night, I loved it!!

I can't find the word right now to describe it but if I do you know I'll say it here :P

 

Then it started to rain and I couldn't (or didn't want to) use my camera.

Actually all the better because you focus more on the stage when you don't have that thing in your hand!

It was perfect!!!!

We were all soaked through but none of us minded, it was actually very a very welcome way to be cooled down a little.

The downside however was that Carla and me couldn't see through our glasses and we all had a mixture of sweat, dirt and sun cream in our eyes...

It must have looked as if the whole coldplaying bunch was crying during Fix you :laugh3::laugh3::laugh3:

I handed out tissues and pretty soon afterwards we could focus again :)

We were all wearing the shining bracelets that Chavi was handing out, thanks again, love!! :hug:

Thanks for the review and the pics Anna! I'm glad you had fun with the girls !

 

Some people think that at the end of Violet Hill, Chris said "bonsoir biloute!"

"Biloute" is a French expression from the North :P I watched a video on youtube, but the crowd is too loud so I can't really hear..

 

I heard Phil came to you too! ^^

LiquidSky, it was a banner with a yellow heart with "Phil" written in it.

 

arwen88, oh thanks!! He says something with "bonjour" two times, well possible it was "biloute"!! I'll watch my video again...

 

BTW, short part 4c coming about Phil, the rain and the butterflies and about what happened after the concert!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Part 4b:

 

During Strawberry Swing I thought that one of us better get a setlist as I couldn't remember the order already!

Oh my memory!

 

But it stopped raining for the B-stage luckily!

I love the techno remixes so much and the atmosphere was amazing.

 

Chris said hello to the people at the windows, all of them were filled with people having a party like we did!

There was a woman with grey hair in one window with her grand-child I suppose and she wasn't dancing any less than us!

 

I have a video of Chris's speech and THP and PFFA, I'll upload that later! (Quality not the best but better than nothing I suppose). I have to cut it at the beginning of VLV because that song sounds more like a techno party than like VLV, the sound recording is awful!

 

Time for pics I think :D

In the end they didn't get as good as I hoped they would, I have some good ones however. For now they're all scaled down from 4000x3000 pixels to 1024 resolution, some close-ups later!

 

 

Chris (picspam!!!):

 

 

That man is always moving!!

I need to learn better how to use my camera for next time...

They're getting better through the series however.
