[LadyBellaStrawberry]

Thanks to everyone who posted pics and vids :p

i cant stand when it's reported that Chris is drunk when it's totally not true.People who aren't really Coldplay fans dont know that is how he is normally on stage.They also said he was drunk on SNL in 2008

 

I totally agree with you!!!

I haven't even looked yet, but I have a feeling this is going to end up in the Chris/Jonny thread.

 

"What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas." That is of course, unless it results in some BuMabies. :sneaky:

[zzz]

and some without watermarks (always better ;))

awesome vids!!

 

I'm disappointed that Chris didn't play the piano live during Homecoming!!!

[iduran20]

Spending New Years with Coldplay...kind of. :)

 

So I got to the strip around 10pm and I was walking around for a while and waiting for the concert to start until like 11pm. I started to get disappointed that maybe they weren't going to show it afterall so I got sad and we started walking away from the Cosmopolitan. But then I hear a familiar voice asking if everyone was ready. :D So I turn around and see Chris on the bigscreen and hear the beginning of Politik playing now. :dance: So I hurried back to a better area with good sound and good view, and I was all happy again. :D The boys were full of energy and they looked very happy to be there. They were all dressed in what seemed like the Christmas Lights video attire. :wink3: Chris said they even shaved because they wanted to look good in front of the best dressed crowd they've ever played for. :P And for those who heard that Chris was drunk. HE WAS NOT. He was just his usual energetic self. So the concert was fantastic, they really performed well and I wish I could have been inside to sing along with them. I was singing along outside anyways but I felt like I was the only one that knew every song. :P Although there was a lady standing behind me who knew a few. :) The crowd outside seemed to be into it a bit as well though cause they'd cheer at the end of the song. I really had a fun time, I just missed the singalongs that came with Yellow, Fix You, and Viva La Vida, and the other songs where the crowd ALL chimes in. Chris sang everything this time. :P At midnight Jay-Z came out with Coldplay and they had a clock to do a countdown, I think they were a bit early but it was great timing cause right after it was officially 2011, Coldplay performed their final song, Viva La Vida, and it went well with the celebrations going all around me. It was also my first song of the New Year. :dance: There were like 10minutes of fireworks and they started when Viva La Vida was playing. It was great! I had a fantastic time bringing in the new year with Coldplay!! :wacko:

[iduran20]

OH and it was worth my very numb and cold feet. :D

Wow Homecoming and Heart of the City! Jay-Z even did Can I Live... amazing!

i cant stand when it's reported that Chris is drunk when it's totally not true.People who aren't really Coldplay fans dont know that is how he is normally on stage.They also said he was drunk on SNL in 2008

 

I saw his eyes when he leaned in towards me before and after he came back out. Something was definitely up.

 

And ya I always try to get a pic with Chris in the background, but literally every time he saw my friend trying to take a pic, he would turn around. People next to us even commented on that.

 

I've got tons of videos. I think I filmed every song and am trying to upload as many as I can from my hotel, but the internet is a hit or miss here. There should be another one soon. Homecoming is uploading now I think.

 

99% of the people there had no idea what Coldplay was about and it showed. It was a status thing for most people and I think there were probably a total of 10 of us towards the front singing with every song and having an actual good time. I know it looks like I just showed up on this forum, but I've been a member for years. Had my password saved on another computer and forgot it so I wasn't able to login from a new computer. I don't normally post much, but I read a lot when I can. I'm still trying to recover from last night, but I'll write a much more detailed post about everything.

thanks Jimmy! :D

[jeremyy]

^^^ If you have seen Chris up close during certain songs he sings, he has Crazy Eyes, I don't think he would be drunk while performing for so many, that would be like him showing up for his job drunk. It doesn't sound like him. Thank-You for all the updates and vids, that was very nice of you.
