July 24, 200917 yr The roadie leading the clapping during Blue Danube is Marta. I got on her in Dallas about why she wasn't out there leading the clapping any more. Woot for Marta! Wooot!
July 24, 200917 yr I kept looking on the big screens to see if I could see you when they went to the lawn. Everyone was like this: :o and this :D :lol: Yeah, it was funny. When I told the people around me (who got there early) that the band would be RIGHT THERE, no one believed me at first. I was honestly afraid the girl standing directly behind me was going to faint. When they started the walk up from the stage, she was like, "OMG OMG, CHRIS MARTIN IS COMING HERE!!! OMG!!!" You can hear her screaming throughout my video. :lol: I went walking around looking for you, Angie, but I couldn't remember where you had said you were sitting. I was wearing a black tank top I decorated with a neon green LRLRL butterfly.
July 24, 200917 yr The roadie leading the clapping during Blue Danube is Marta. I got on her in Dallas about why she wasn't out there leading the clapping any more. Woot for Marta! she was the one with the red hair right? I had a nice conversation with her(she was standing right infront of me during the clapping). She was very lovely. She says the clapping and swaying of the arms during the Blue Danube really pumps up the boys:D:D:D
July 24, 200917 yr Awesome review Jen ! I really love the C-stage part :wacky: Coldplay karma was with you that night !
July 24, 200917 yr I just realised in the frenzy of uploading pics and vids, that one has ALL of them in it on the main stage! I don't think I've ever managed that before! :smug:
July 24, 200917 yr she was the one with the red hair right? I had a nice conversation with her(she was standing right infront of me during the clapping). She was very lovely. She says the clapping and swaying of the arms during the Blue Danube really pumps up the boys:D:D:D Like bright red hair?! I think she may be the one who upgraded me at my show... I asked if anyone knew who she was in the roadies thread- but no one knew! Marta! I will eternally be grateful for you! :) Jen- GREAT review! Now I wish I would have come down with you! haha Great photos everyone! Sounds like it was a blasssst!
July 25, 200917 yr Yeah I remember her! That was the best night ever and I'll say it again! It was even better cuz by best friend got to come too, and everyone knows COLDPLAY is about great friends and great music :) Yeah, it was funny. When I told the people around me (who got there early) that the band would be RIGHT THERE, no one believed me at first. I was honestly afraid the girl standing directly behind me was going to faint. When they started the walk up from the stage, she was like, "OMG OMG, CHRIS MARTIN IS COMING HERE!!! OMG!!!" You can hear her screaming throughout my video. LOL yeah when they came right to where I was and started playing ten feet infront of me I started doing the same thing. All i could say was OMG OMG OMG OMGx100, I was so shocked I was shaking and thought I might pass out at the sight of Chris, Jonny, Guy and Will right there in the fleah. I will remember that to the day I die.

July 25, 200917 yr Houston review is up on my blog http://angie-footieandconcerts.blogspot.com/ I read your blog. You are "ate up with it" just like my group! The costume was a fantastic idea,wish I had thought of that. But then had I wore it, people would KNOW I was crazy- a 56 yo man in a costume as such ...whehhhh:D We had 2 rooms at the Marriott, had we known you were in the parking lot sweltering in the heat, you could have chilled with us. My daughters and grand daughter would have liked that. Maybe next time? :) We made the last Houton show in November 08, made the New Orleans show last month and the Woodlands last Wednesday. They were all great shows, but forced to choose one- I'd take Houston this week. Only downside was the heat. You blog is great, sorry to ramble on. ;)
July 25, 200917 yr @ Angie, great review for both shows and thanks for the mention, ha. That was so funny about Amadou and Mariam! :lol:
July 25, 200917 yr i saw you and Angie. infact, the first person i saw once i sat down was Angie. i was about 20 rows behind you guys. nice pics and videos by the way! Aww, you should have come over and said hello!! :D
