Lizzybear Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Great Concert! I was literally 3ft away from them. I was in the 2nd row to the b-stage and when all four of them came towards there I freaked. I took so many piccss of Chris upfront. I was so close I could see his beads of sweat ;).... Another cool thing happened, I dk if its Coldplay karma material but, I met a nice fellow by the name of Jonathan who said to be Chris' cousin. I believed him since he had a VIVA pass, not to mention his english accent. Anyways he was telling me and another guy how Chris is such a cool guy and that he loves to text. He also said that if he'd text Chris to dedicate a song to someone he'd do it. So he asked the guy what was his name and he said Neil. We were skeptical as he send the message...but sure enough, im not sure if it was Politik or DAAHF but chris said "This song is for Neil"... how cool is that. Also since I wasnt on the floor to get butterflies, Jonathan was kind enough to leap over, to the stage and get me some handfulls :D Ok wait to i went back and re read this.....was Chris's cus sitting next to u guys during the show or what?:thinking: or how did u start talkig to him?!

Yes indeed he was sitting next to me and a guy named Neil. It all started when Chris said "This next song is for my cousin Jonathan", all of a sudden Jonathan starts screaming loudly saying "Cousin Im over here Im over here" then thats when Neil and I asked if they were really cousins, and thats how the conversation arose.. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texans Rock - I have never enjoyed reviews so much! you guys are the greatest fans, the banner was beautiful Angie and Lori! and congrats to all of you on your signed cd's, touches, fangirlyness etc. awesome stories and reviews. Lauren, i am so glad your first concert was so amazing. You all deserve a round of applause:clap::clap::clap: *waits patiently for pics and vids* aw thank you very much Christa! it was definitely a fantastic way to start me CP show career. :D Just a Little review: I thought the show was solid, Did anyone else think Chrissy sounds like his voice is taking a tiny bit of a beating....just a little more of a hard edged rasp than normal but still beautiful as always. Boys seemed comfortable and in the groove. I thought maybe the crowd came up a little short on the sing-a-longs (I could be wrong) , but they were ridiculously loud in between songs! I grabbed Phil while he was roaming around the front taking pics and gave him my cowboy hat with Viva butterflies glued to it and asked him to see if he could get Will to wear it during the encore. 3 minutes later Chris picked it up from the floor behind Will, put in on his head for exactly 1 second, then on Will's head for 1 second , then off. If you blinked you missed it, but fun for me still. Finally, I was directly on the Guy ramp but as some fellow CPers will not be surprised to hear, I forgot to bring my camera to S.A.:\ Massive bummer. Awaiting some good pics from other Coldplayers so let's see'em folks! that's great! :thumbsup: :dead:!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMGOMGOMFG!!!!

*Perrine* Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Very F**king lucky! At one point in the concert Chris said "This next song is for my cousin Jonathan" :bomb::dead: I would be SO proud ! from what ive heard of ppl meeting his dad too in Oz....the whole Martin family sounds lovely! :wacky:! It's doesn't surprise me at all ! That's why Chris is always so modest, he never forget he's a man like everybody (or almost :P) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenjie Posted June 11, 2009 Author Share Posted June 11, 2009 What an incredible show! Coldplay @ San Antonio on June 10, 2009 - What a memorable day! Amazing set list, great front man in Chris Martin (never thought this guy was so awesome, truly a rock star!) and an incredible audience (again, never expected San Antonions to be this wild!). They opened with 'Life in Technicolor' ended with 'Life in Technicolor' ...great choice! I got to watch all my Coldplay favorites live - 'Yellow', 'Clocks', 'Viva la vida', 'Fix you', 'Lovers in Japan', 'Lost'. Discovered few great Coldplay songs. Highlights of the concert: Starting the show with sparklers and then opening with Life is technicolor. Thunderous applause from the crowd. Huge yellow balloons flying all over the place for Yellow and audience finishing off the song Fix you and Viva la vida performances. Huge spherical TVs The band moving right across the arena and singing few songs in a mini stage set up among the audience Mobile phone wave at Chris' request. Audience response was amazing. Chris Martin, Chris Martin and more Chris Martin. The guy knows what a front man means. Supporting acts - Howling Bells and Snow Patrol too were good. Snow Patrol in specific rocked! I shot lot of videos. I will upload those videos in youtube and will post links here soon. If you ever get a chance to watch Coldplay live, go watch it. You'll never regret. Now that Coldplay is done, I will wait for the real legends - U2. October can't come soon enough. http://avoidconflict.blogspot.com/2009/06/what-incredible-show.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lore Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 So we got to the venue, had a look around. Couldn't find where the band would be entering. We were at this gate but it was just for venue employees. Walked around back, almost had heat stroke in doing so, but only saw the red trucks. It was so damn hot we decided to just make our way up to the venue gates. They were playing a recording about no pro cameras, no banners :angry: this show may contain lasers and confetti. :lol: Finally doors opened at just past 6pm. On way tobathroom Lori laughed about women and men's signs having cowboy hats on.......looks like R#42 thought it was pretty funny too. Seats were on floor, center section, row 14....which turned out to be row 11 due to stage. :D On way to seats we walk right past Franksie. I stop and ask him if I can show him my banner. You see 6 years ago I went see Coldplay in Cleveland on the same date, June 10, and that night Chris faked coughing fit to get the band's PA Vicki to bring him something to drink. When she got out there, he told everyone it was her birthday and everyone sang happy birthday to her. Well since I knew it was her birthday, I decided to make a Happy Birthday Vicki banner. When I showe dit to Franksie he took our pic with it and said "this is going on the web site" :stunned: We went to our seats giddy thinking maybe we would be on the bad's site. After about 20 minutes or so he comes back out and walks up to me and says he showed the pic to Chris and Chris wanted us to have signed copies of LRLRL for making that for Vicki. :dance: holly cow :o congrats :D :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
