another possible scenarios is that they were asked not to use those fireworks by the stadium as they hit the roof in porto (no roof in madrid and nice). you can clearly see them hitting the roof in this video. not sure what kind of damage that does...

It can actually be lethal in a crowded venue of any size! And some venues' insurance might not allow for a certain amount of pyro.

im just praying its all there come june 10

having said that, knowing health and safety regulations in the uk, not promising...

Don't worry. Even if it's not. Being there is nothing like the videos, and it will blow your mind even without pyro.:)

just hope i can take it all in this time. saw them for the 1st time last year, was basically in shock the whole time, cant remember much. waited for that day for over 10 years.

I know the feeling! Toronto will be my 8th, but I only remember a couple shows clearly. I can't remember what they played in '08, the the visuals still stand out. I don't remember hearing 'Yes' even though I know they played it and it's a favorite,lol.

ah the perks of northern hemisphere dwelling :cry:

 

*8th time!*

watching the videos of the beginning of the concert im quite disappointed. There were none of those little fireworks during mx like at the other concerts, and the fireworks were rubbish. cant understand why its changed. it was absolutely awesome before, now it looks like theyve just run out of cash and replaced fireworks with flashing lights...

 

Could there be some kind of ordinance against fireworks? I know in some of their shows, fireworks were not allowed - like last fall in Austin and at UCLA due to drought conditions. Not saying there is a drought, but there is probably a good reason why they didn't have fireworks in Turin.

dear coldplayers, I'm looking forward to tonights concert in zurich and I am already in the mood reading your reviews, looking at the pics and videos, thank you for that :)

what would you say are the best places next to the stage to stand in order to have THE very best view?

^^ I think that it really depends where your entrance is. I'm assuming you have standing tickets, so I'd say somewhere around the X Stage!

would you recommend the X-part of the stage or rather right in front of the stage where they have their instruments like chris's piano? i have golden circle tickets, those are all right in front of the stage but I'm not sure where exactly you would have the best view....

The rest of the fireworks worked without problem, no idea why they didn't use some of them for MX, but as lutzno pointed out, those were probably going to hit the roof and therefore they decided against using them. I hadn't seen any of the previous gigs' videos, so I really didn't feel like something was missing

 

@eli_i i think the X is the best place, you have a perfect frontal view of the main stage and the visuals and the band is very close when they play there. Friends in the first row told me the main stage is really high and you risk to have one of the cameraman blocking the view of part of it

regarding the x stage, would you say best place to stand on it would be facing straight down the runway thing?

In my opinion yes :)

I envy you guys who can go their gig to see them in person.:\

I could be wrong but they are MX symbols and butterfly for both but for LIJ they are the new plastic confetti.

 

But this doesn't look like MX symbols, does it?

For the next gig I want a fucking reflex like all the little girls around me :laugh3:

I want take pics like these!

 

And a little piece of my heart is sad because would have been amazing see them in my country :\

 

But this doesn't look like MX symbols, does it?

:thinking: you are right! It's strange...I'm sure about Nice 'cause the cannon was just in front of me but maybe for Turin they changed!

this is not a video from the gig, but it made me laugh so much.

 

These two girls made a video of them trying to buy the tickets for the gig when the last few were made available again on May 20th, their reaction (at 1:15) is priceless when they read the purchase confirmation page :nice:
