Recommended Posts

I've never actually been to this venue, but my dad says the lawn section is pretty awesome. You can see the stage, but it's not the best view. But, they do have these huge projector screens in the back so you can see what's happening on stage. It's my first Coldplay concert today :) I'm so excited!

Well that's good! Yeah, I don't really feel like showing up early and roasting in the heat for no reason. What seat do you guys have? I have G01 seats 65 and 66. I hope its not on the side or something!

 

Holy crap we are sitting right next to you 67 and on lol. I've never met a fellow coldplayer before. :laugh3:

Awesome! Well I hope we have good seats! I will probably get there around 4:30 I guess. I really will be mad if that lady is lying!

 

We are going to show up around the same time. And yeah I'll be livid if she's lying but what are we going to do.

Oh I'm right there with you. We just have to be determined. It annoys me to know end to see a bunch of snooty people up front who don't know coldplay from travis. No offense to travis I like them too just saying lol.

Yeah, but I think the boys know the true fans. Last night I swear I caught Guy looking at me a few times (I was in 11th row) because I knew every damn word! haha. This show should be great! I really hope I'm truly front row!

^ I don't know if it'll be the same this time around, but I know from the last time I saw them at this venue, there were security gaurds that made sure people with seats don't get into the pit section.

 

But, there'll be a lot more people this time. Maybe they'll be too distracted with everyone else.

 

Good luck you guys! And come see me at the Oxfam table before the show :P

Hey everyone, I just got back from the show and it was EPIC. The set list was the same. First off, I had Pit tickets but when we got there they had seats and took our Pit tickets and gave us random rows to sit in so I got row 12, well I was livid because I was like the fourth person in line and felt like I would have been front row so I talked to a LiveNation man and he said he would talk to his supervisor so finally I decided to go to the bathroom and I took my ticket with me and this other lady who was handing out tickets I told her the situation and she was like "I have row 5" I was like I will take it! So I go to the bathroom and come back to my seat and they escorted me right NEXT to the cat walk and it was really row 3 on Guy's side!! I was freaking out. I was less than a foot away from Chris on the catwalk! The crowd was fabulous and a lot better than last night in my opinion! When Chris looked at me I freaked out because I couldn't believe I was right next to him. I will post more pics and videos tomorrow but for now I will leave you with this little slice of heaven: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUz6II1ffxc]YouTube - Coldplay- Lost! (Live)[/ame]

Awesome Concert in Wheatland

 

ColdplayRulesTheWorld, I went to both concerts and I agree that tonight' s crowd was much better. I had almost perfect seats tonight, front and center. It seems that Chris gave a much better show tonight. He seemed more like I expected him to be, performing more like he usually does in the clips on Youtube. He sang right on key, as he usually does, and his dancing was especially good. I wonder where he gets the energy. He is in great shape at 32. He went non-stop for 2 hours. He is very muscular, especially in his legs.

 

It's amazing how close you were to Coldplay. Great clip, and I hope you post more. Do you have a channel on Youtube? Please tell us your user ID so we can see all your clips when you upload.

 

This concert was definitely worth the 120 miles I drove each way from San Francisco. It was simply an unforgettable experience.

That was an AMAZING show last night... I was in a situation like you, CPRulesTheWorld! Online I picked out (what I thought were) front row seats, and we got there and they gave us row 13! I was so excited to be RIGHT THERE next to the stage... oh well. You're lucky, what an awesome lady you met! :lol: I'm happy I actually got to hit a balloon and be under the butterflies this time though.

 

God, I do not know how they performed like that with how freakin hot it was (I was so glad to be back in the Bay Area weather afterwards, let me tell you...). Chris looked like he was losing it at the very end of 42, his eyes were bugging out like crazy :lol: They are real troupers.

That sucks for you guys that they assigned you seats. I was lucky enough to get reserved, in row 10.

 

However, it was an AWESOME concert. Amazing sound, light show, and the yellow balls and butterflies added so much to the performance. I especially enjoyed the light performance on Politik, and the Viva la Vida remix. I'll have to go again, and will be recommending Coldplay to friends. Chris was humorous and energetic (loved the bug-eyes on 42), even through the heat that didn't cool til late. Calling them out took some effort though (including cheering, screaming, yelling, and seat-banging). It is upsetting when others get closer seats or even sit in the pit when they barely seem to care about Coldplay. But as people mentioned, the band seems to be able to tell who's the true fans. :D

 

On another note, I swear I saw you, CPRulestheWorld......but I can't be sure. :)

14-Jul-09: Sleep Train Amphitheater, Sacramento - Coldplay - Green Eyes

 

The show was awe inspiring. I was always a fan of Coldplay, been listening since Parachutes. But I was lucky enough to win some lawn seat tickets to this concert yesterday. I'm glad I went, since during the concert the band moved to a box right next to the lawn area, and played three songs!!! (Green Eyes, An acoustic sung by Will, and Billie Jean -- Billie Jean was truly amazing, especially with the crowd singing along!! I wish I had video of that!)

 

But I did get a minute of Green Eyes before the memory card on my camera went out, here it is: (Sorry for the shaky film, there were so many people there!)
