August 13, 201213 yr Hello all! Just wanted to share my photos from the concert :D Coldplay @ Xcel Energy Center (8-11-12) Wow. Your pictures are fantastic! :)
August 13, 201213 yr Oh, and if anyone wants a copy, the Xcel Center has the setlist doc on their website: http://www.xcelenergycenter.com/uploads/assets/Newsroom/ColdplaySetList2.pdf?camefrom=EMCL_16023_Set+List
August 13, 201213 yr saralovescoldplay92 I saw you! Great hat-too cute! I got strange looks for my Tshirt and some loser girls were laughing at my sister in the rest room. LAME its like we make it worthwhile when we go we are fans duh! O and were u filling bags of confetti at the end? Hope you got alot your pics are great! I talked to a girl in glasses in the restroom because we had both made shirts, and when I walked out with my 12 year old daughter (who also had a shirt), some girls laughed at us. I bet you it was the same girls. I hope they enjoyed watching me dance my ass off in the third row! ;)
August 13, 201213 yr Being it the pit was fun. Some of the audience definitely lacked energy or maybe it's because I'm used to the energy packed audiences of Linkin Park concerts. Definitely noticed the older people and some of the guys just stood there the entire concert. Anyways, here's some pics (I can't make them smaller or hide them in a spoiler box here):
August 14, 201213 yr I ran into a few people who were incredibly rude to super fans... :( Right before Coldplay came on, I had to run the whole length of the Xcel to get back to my seats (I was visiting my uncle on the other side) and got laugh at. But I bet they didn't have as much fun as we did. :dance: :cool:
August 14, 201213 yr They just don't know what they're missing! I was almost the only one on my feet in my section for my show, until VLV. Their loss.:)
August 14, 201213 yr butterflygirl-yea probably the same girls. Really I dont give a flying F%*& to be honest. I had a great time. i was actually sitting next to some people who were screaming some lyrics too. If its so lame to dress up why are you there in the first place? We are dressed up for their concert. You are at a CP concert right? Yea thats sucky for them..came to an awesome concert to stand around.
August 14, 201213 yr O and my sis ran out before the encore to use the RR and to make a call and saw all the boys walking pass- I should have gone with her. She was super happy ;)
August 14, 201213 yr Great pics! Haha, I can see myself in this pic too! :laugh3: God, what an amazing set of shows. This last night was so perfect. I'm still on a high from it all!

LAME its like we make it worthwhile when we go we are fans duh! O and were u filling bags of confetti at the end? Hope you got alot your pics are great! Yes! I was totally get lots of confetti! And thank you very much! I am really happy with how my photos turned out. More about rude people at the concert - a guy sat down right in front of me and said, mockingly, "I get to sit in front of you!" I guess he knew I was a super fan and wanted to rub it in my face that he got better seats than me? Hahaha, who knows? Some people just don't get it! Also, the security guard was making fun of me for getting the confetti. I heard him say, "Oh my gosh, this confetti is just the best confetti ever! It's so much different than any other confetti I've seen!" He laughed super loud. Again, I didn't care! I was going to stuff my bag with lots of it! :)
August 14, 201213 yr I don't know if it was one of you, but after everyone had cleared out of the arena (and they were cleaning it up) I passed a girl on the steps with a bag of confetti and asked if I could still go grab some. :nice: Just wondering :)
August 14, 201213 yr Well that is an easy way to get a setlist! ;) ha ha yeah. My aunt was disappointed that I didn't get one because we were sitting up so high, but I told her that the Xcel Center sent an email with it linked. :D

I was going to stuff my bag with lots of it! :) It's a shame that you ran into those rude people, but glad you didn't let them take the joy out of your concert! Keep dressing up for concerts and you'll get lucky. The fact that I got to sit front row for one of the concerts this tour still blows my mind when I think about it!
August 14, 201213 yr Wow I can't believe how rude some people were to you guys, what a sad bunch of idiots. But really glad you all had a good time despite them.. Makes you wonder why people like that even GO to concerts at all.
August 14, 201213 yr Do people not realize they're at a Coldplay concert?? How can you be rude to a person dressed up in Coldplay gear? Some people are so weird. I got strange looks in the lobby of my hotel because there was a wedding going on and I had to pass a bunch of people in my crazy neon outfit haha. There was a guy at the show that stopped me and asked if he could take a picture with my pants (they were neon yellow tights under my shorts and I had written "Coldplay" down the sides) His gf said he's obsessed with neon stuff so he took a picture next to my leg :laugh3:
August 14, 201213 yr Hey everyone! First time posting (usually a lurker!) I had to comment because that is my hand in your photo :) I recognize my right hand ring and nail polish anywhere ha! Fantastic photos! I agree with you about fans, I think I was the only one bouncing/dancing/cheering/singing along in my row.
August 14, 201213 yr I think it would be cool to have like special concerts were only Coldplay super fans could come. I don't know how that could be tested...but... :shrug: :thinking:
August 14, 201213 yr I just read today's Oracle questions, and she doesn't even know that the Xcel Center has the doc! :P
August 14, 201213 yr I think it would be cool to have like special concerts were only Coldplay super fans could come. I don't know how that could be tested...but... :shrug: :thinking: They could require that everyone make home made Coldplay outfits and that you have to answer test questions before they let you purchase tickets or something :laugh3:
