August 3, 200917 yr Yes, Elbow was AMAZING! Hope they come back on their own cos I am def. going to see them. I started listening to them when I heard they were opening for Coldplay and fell in love with a lot of their songs.
August 3, 200917 yr Yes, thanks for the flags! I think it helped us to find the other Coldplayers if nothing else. But they were really cool!
August 3, 200917 yr By the way, I ordered one of the Toronto posters on the Coldplay merch website and it came to $16.95 American. It probably cost a lot for shipping since I'm in the U.S. But they're glow in the dark! And I just needed one for my Coldplay wall in my bedroom :D
August 3, 200917 yr It came to $18.95 CAD when I bought it ($10 for shipping)! Sooo going to frame this! :D
August 3, 200917 yr It was my first CP concert and it was absolutely amazing!!! I wasn't really digging Kitty, Daisy and Lewis but after Elbow came on the place started to fill up pretty quickly. I thought security was going be tight and that I would be denied taking my digital camera in since it records video. But as my friend and I were lining up at the gate, one guy ushered to us let us go through without glancing into our bags. So we found our seats and waited for what felt like hours for Coldplay to come on. Finally, the lights went out and everyone screamed, including my friend who doesn't even know them. I was so happy to see everyone in my section standing up when LIT began (my seats weren't that great tbh). But anyway, I absolutely loved the sparklers. :nice: Violet Hill, i felt went by fast, In My Place was so amazing, there was so much energy put into this song, the boys played every song wonderfully, it was loud and the music was incredible, highlights were lovers in japan (the neon butterflies were so beautiful!), politik (my favourite arobtth song), yellow, and glass of water. Albeit my friend was being impatient that I didn't get a chance to go collect confetti and ask for a setlist, getting out was a hassle and i felt the concert ended too quickly, it was an incredible experience overall. I don't plan on forgetting this concert anytime soon. :)
August 3, 200917 yr At the end, Chris said "See you all in a couple of years". I'll be there! So will the Purple Girls, definitely! I really can't wait till next time.
August 3, 200917 yr I saw you guys^ when I was walking with my friend by the GA lineup. I thought you all looked really cool and I liked your shirts a lot :wacky:, but I didn't know you were from coldplaying so sorry for not stopping and saying hello.

We take great pride in our shirts :D Yeah i wish we could've met but oh well. I was saying, whenever we go to a show we should all make huge signs that have our usernames on them, so we would know!:)
August 3, 200917 yr ^that I swear next time I'm wearing a shirt that says "HELLO, YES I AM COLDPLAY OBSESSED" :lol:
August 3, 200917 yr ^that I swear next time I'm wearing a shirt that says "HELLO, YES I AM COLDPLAY OBSESSED" :lol: HAHAHAHAHA that would be killer! I would be like "Oh hayyy! What a coincidence, so am I!" Actually you know how our shirts said "I love Coldplay"? Well some guy who was selling and buying tickets on the street said to us, "Wow so do I!", and I got real excited. I just love Coldplay fans. But your shirt idea would make life a lot easier, then everyone would be warned, anddd know who you are!
August 3, 200917 yr Me too, Chris is right we are the best fans in the universe! That's so cool and great to hear that some of them don't only do it for money lol! :lol: Yes I remember someone telling me to make a sign " Warning -I am a Coldplay Fan" or something like that... :thinking:or was it " Warning- I have OCD (Obsessive-Coldplay Disorder)" anyways you get the point :P OH you know what we should do we should do next time all the coldplayers should take over the concert and show up in purple shirts with their usernames on it like you suggested hahahah

Like some kind of purple army!!! The whole front row would probably be purple, that'd be sweet.
August 3, 200917 yr hahahah yeah it would be! And very funny to look at the confused faces around. We would definitely make coldplay.com then:P
August 3, 200917 yr my gosh you are right! we'll have to spread that around next time they come to Toronto!
August 3, 200917 yr gratification Hi Ziggy, I was going to message and tell you that I held the flag up at the end and Guy saw it and smiled at me..... I didn't see too many people with the flag... I had a bunch and gave some out and Aunie had hers and the purple girls also brought with them... anyway great job on the flag... thank you... The flag design was so easy and simple to do and offer, and not at all representative of the work I usually do. But I'm enormously gratified just that even one of the band saw it and it even brought a smile. I did it for them, really. An artist's fantasy come true. My mood is turing strawberry today! I'm sorry I was sitting back in A6 and couldn't participate with you duruing the show. Next time!
August 3, 200917 yr It means you're emotionally healthy CP ... OK I'm secure in my masculinity. But, I have to confess that listening to certain songs at home always brings tears to my eyes. Yeah, real men do cry. I'm not sure why but it may be an association with the time I lived in England and CP were just getting airtime. I also suspect that it may be CM's emotions and lyrics ... I dunno ... but as they came on stage (I could see them behind the screen with the sprinklers) I started to tear up. Now thank god that the huge security man was in front of me and I just made it look like it was the smoke or something. But I didn't tear up for the rest of the show ... and I thank you guys for that. Because there was just so much positive emotion and cheers even during the tough songs for me. Tearing up in response to great art has nothing to do with masculinity. It means you're open to life's profound wonders. Own it proudly!
August 3, 200917 yr FINALLY got around to uploading videos (3 out of 4 of them anyways) [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jb47a-5YY1g]YouTube - The Hardest Part Live in Toronto[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcrYLILY5Qc]YouTube - Green Eyes Live in Toronto[/ame] [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7922ySFHe-4]YouTube - Ending of Politik Live in Toronto[/ame]
August 3, 200917 yr Yeah thanks to everyone who stuck up for us!:D If this kind of thing ever happens to you at a concert that we're also at, we'll be sure to start a chant for you!
August 3, 200917 yr Karen, Emily and Katie.. I had the best time at the concert thanks to your enthusiasm and love of the band. It was already exciting to be there and so close but seeing how happy you girls were (and the 3 young boys) really made my night. You are lovely girls and a credit to your parents.. Hope to meet again at another Coldplay concert Hugs Your mummy Thank you so very much!!!! And I have to say that if it wasn't for you we would've had no one else to talk to in line, and we probably wouldn't have gotten such a great spot in the pitt. I REALLY appreciate what you did for us, and I'm happy that in return we could make your night in our insane and crazy way:D.

You should've bought me one, I would have paid you back. Oh well. I'll ask my dad for one, because I never used the $46 he gave me.
August 3, 200917 yr I saw you guys^ when I was walking with my friend by the GA lineup. I thought you all looked really cool and I liked your shirts a lot :wacky:, but I didn't know you were from coldplaying so sorry for not stopping and saying hello. Thanks! Lol it's OK.
