THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE!!

a review (with pics and video) by Brooke

 

 

also, i apologize in advance for all the screaming/bad singing/bad filming in the videos. i was excited. :P the pics aren't so great, so i might try to take some screenshots from the videos and post those later. :)

 

oh geez, the videos are doing some funky thing where they speed up in certain parts... will have to fix that later as well. :(

 

 

 

this was my first Coldplay concert and it was AMAZING!!!

 

we (my two sisters Olivia and Harley and myself) arrived at the venue around 2, and there were only a few girls in line at that time. as it got later and later, the line of people in the middle became huge, but we were off to the side, so when they finally let us up to the doors we were almost in first.

we had lawn seats, so as soon as we entered the section i searched for the c-stage. it was way over to the left (looking at the stage) and we managed to snag seats right in front of it. i was already freaking out at that point, knowing that they'd eventually be within feet of us. and i saw Hoppy tuning up the guitars! :D

Kitty, Daisy & Lewis played... they were all right. not really the kind of music i like, but they weren't bad.

Elbow was fantastic!! i felt bad for only knowing Grounds for Divorce, though.

The Blue Danube came on... i freaked, naturally.

 

(yes, that was me saying "i do love you:wacky:" :sick:)

Chris was great. the hair talk at the b-stage- something about them being on tour for as long as three inches of curly hair, and that they'd keep on touring until people mistook him for Michael Bolton. then in VLV It was the wicked and wild wind// I just wiped something off of my chin :lol:

the crowd was amazing, too.

 

then came the c-stage...

 

 

1030426.jpg

 

OK, so i had made Coldplay puppets for my video for the Lost? competition, and i thought it'd be a good idea to bring them to the concert. i had the Chris one, Liv had the Jonny one, and Harley had the Guy and Will ones.

 

well, about 5 or 10 seconds after that video ended, Chris noticed the puppets. he loved them!!! :D he laughed and smiled, then showed Will, who also laughed and smiled. according to Harley, Guy noticed the puppets and smiled, too, but i didn't see. :(

 

they played Green Eyes, and i was surprisingly calm for being feet away from my loves. there was a bit of jonnychrislove! towards the end which is SUPER ADORABLE IN PERSON!!! :wacky::wacky:

then Chris sang the bit where he introduces Will. just before they started playing DWNC Guy had the SEXIEST look on his face. :bomb:

then Will started, and Chris was dancing around the stage. at one point he reached out and touched someone's hand, then he walked over by the corner closest to me. he looked directly at me (and let me tell you, he has GINORMOUS BLUE EYES!! :bomb::bomb:) and was smiling, and i started freaking out. of course, i looked right back at him. then he moved his hand, and it took me a second to realize what he was doing.... HE THREW HIS HARMONICA AT ME.

CHRIS MARTIN THREW ME HIS HARMONICA.:dead:

i couldn't believe it. especially since i caught it with my left hand. there were all sorts of people reaching for it, but i had managed to grab it and as soon as i did, i shoved it in my pocket so that no one could try to take it from me. apparently Chris didn't see that i caught it, though, because my sisters said he looked a bit confused and kept looking at the ground.

 

they played Billie Jean, which is a complete blur for me, as i was freaking out about the harmonica, then went back to the main stage.

the butterfly confetti didn't reach the lawn section, but i was OK with that because we ended up snatching a whole bunch as we were leaving.

 

when they came back on for the encore, Chris said something about them not coming back for a few years, so everyone started to boo. he was like, "what?! :P" then said something about Guy entering on America's Got Talent and being a naked Flamenco dancer (to which i may have said YEAHHH!). :lol:

and then it was over. :(

BUT I HAVE CHRIS' HARMONICA, SO BAM! :dance::dance:

so a VERY big thanks to everyone who sent me lots of Coldplay karma. :wacky::hug:

 

 

That's awesome! Reading your review made me smile!!! :D

I didn't take pics when they walked by because I didn't want to risk not touching them, instead I have the world's most chaotic, shambolic video :lol: I might upload it to youtube later for laughs, I think it summarizes all Coldplayers- how insane we can be over a band :P

 

How did you get so many cds girl?!

 

mwahahaha! I said to the lady handing them out "got any signed ones left?" and she laughed and said "I don't know, but here, just take the box" and handed me the remainder of the box she was giving out :dance: I was towards the back of the crowd because I was getting my setlist etc., so I think she just had to give them all away before everyone left :shrug:

 

and Coldplaying karma, I say! :cheesy:

So I've had an account for a while now, but it turns out this is my very first post! I went to the show last night and I thought it was pretty darn sweet. I managed to take some video and I thought I would post it here. I used a Sony Cybershot which has decent video and even better audio. All of the videos are up now. Just a few notes:

 

~ I managed to record seven songs by myself and my sister got three. We had different seats. The only overlap is 42.

~ Camera shakes a lot. Either because I'm rocking out or because my arm started to hurt from holding the camera.

~ Enjoy!

Oooh, I forgot to mention! After I got my setlist I yelled to one of the roadies "thank you roadies, you're the best!" and he smiled and said "you're welcome"... And I couldn't resist and called back "tell Miller I say hi!" and he was like ":stunned: how do you know that?!"

AHHHH IM IN MANSFIELD NOW!!!!

IM SITTING IN MY HOTEL ROOM RIGHT NOW LIKE FLIPPING OUT I HAVE NO CLUE WHAT THE FREAK IM GOING TO WEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:stunned::stunned:

omg EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

*faints

 

 

PLUS!

there are three HUGE rvs out side like tour buses in the hotel parking lot... i think they might be them!!! :wacky: :dance:

and then i heard clocks on the radio three times today ... in the matter of two hours!!!!

COLDPLAY KARMA!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I just got home from all the excitement yesterday and am now catching up on my Coldplaying, and you and I were definitely at the same hotel. I wish I knew! My investigative snooping found out that the three buses belonged to Marilyn Manson's opening band, though. A far cry from Coldplay, sadly...

 

But for the show, I don't think I can say anything that hasn't already been said. An awesome time and well worth the 5 hour drive from Pennsylvania. They were amazing (as usual) and my seats were fantastic at about 15 rows back in Section 3. If only the B-stage was on OUR side, then it would have been incredible. OH, and Billie Jean was everything I hoped it would be!
