Mimixxx Posted March 28, 2009 Author Share Posted March 28, 2009 Coldplay had to cancel a gig in Atlanta because of thunderstorms, back in 2002, they went out later on and did an acoustic set in the parking lot. I'm sure it's safe otherwise they would stop. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenjie Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Icons plunge into darkness to shed light on planet Dubai/Abu Dhabi: Iconic landmarks across the UAE dimmed their lights for one hour on Saturday evening as part of the World Wide Fund for Nature's (WWF) global Earth Hour initiative. Government departments, local businesses and hotels were plunged into darkness in Dubai between 8.30pm and 9.30pm. Dubai International Airport switched off lighting at all its duty free stores across its three terminals while travellers ate in food courts lit by candlelight. Lights at the Burj Dubai, the tallest building in the world, were also switched off as part of the initiative. Hundreds of people gathered at The Walk at Jumeirah Beach Residence, the focal point of Dubai's participation in the event, to watch some of the city's most famous landmarks, including the Burj Al Arab, dim their lights. Residents received T-shirts, caps and lanterns upon arrival. The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) switched off lights at The Walk as well as at all commercial advertising spots on Jumeirah and Sufouh roads. Thousands of people attending the Coldplay concert in Abu Dhabi, were shown a short film on Earth Hour before the gig started. All carbon emissions generated as a result of the concert are to be calculated to generate the event's total carbon footprint. Based on the total figure, 'carbon credits' will fund an international gold standard certified sustainability project. Abu Dhabi Police participated in the Earth Hour by switching off lights at its main premises and dimming lighting in other departments. Warning and security systems continued to work normally. Major General Ahmad Nasser Al Raisi, Director General of Central Operations at Abu Dhabi Police, said the move has not affected emergency systems as light was reduced at the departments whose work is round-the-clock. Beach Rotana Abu Dhabi participated by turning its lobby lights off. Hundreds of guests and visitors were gathered at the lobby, surrounded by candlelights. The Le Meridien Al Aqah Beach Resort in Fujairah switched off lights in the garden and in corridors and offices for one hour, conserving 1,600 kilowatts of electricity. Over 1,800 cities in more than 80 countries pledged their support to Earth Hour 2009 with some of the world's landmarks plunging into darkness, including Sydney Harbour Bridge, Edinburgh Castle and the Pyramids. http://www.gulfnews.com/nation/Environment/10299317.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ifpikad Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 It was so good. The lightning and pelting rain made it even better. The setlist was the same as Singapore I believe but they played some nursery rhymes about rain while we stood there drebched. Chris apologgized for his 'shit arabic'. The sound went out after yellow on stage left and was recovered a couple songs later. Guy's guitar thing didn't work when they played at trhe end of the runway.
