LFDianne Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 What song were they playing here? :wacko: Thanks so much for the pics! :D After the broadcasted part, ending with ETIAW, they came back and did Us Against the World and Everything's Not Lost. Chris is sitting on the edge of the stage for UATW. He just came over, sat down, and apologized for the sound - don't know why, it was amazing. Best show ever...Wow, I still can' t quite get my head around how incredible it was. And apparently, the cameraman was in my face more than I thought. :\:laugh3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michelle F Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Awesome pics Jason! Where do we watch the stream from last night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R23 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Great pics Jason, looks like you had an awesome night (of course you did!). And they rehearsed Get Back? That's in my top 5 fav Beatles songs. Man, can't wait to hear that one someday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FixYou* Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Oh, thank you! I didn't know about the AU gigs...so probably by the 19-20th they'll be in London, yeah? Yes, I think so :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backstreetchix97 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Yeah, okay, it is 4 am and I've been writing an article about this concert, after showing up at the venue at 8 am (now yesterday) and standing around for 13 hours... it was that freaking good! I really can't express - it was just an amazing concert. The venue - incredible. The band - seriously at their most jubilant - they just exuded joy with every bit and nuance of their performance. It was just stunning. Since I've been going to so many concerts lately, I've been putting up articles about them on my website, along with photos and videos (though I only shot one video here, since it was being professionally filmed, which I hope will be available at some point so I can watch it and relive it!). Published a ton of pics - nearly 200 - all from front row center. Seriously, if you ever have an opportunity to get right to the front at a venue like this, the horrific prospect of standing in line all day staring you in the face... totally worth it. People like to throw around the word Epic a lot. This show was freaking Epic. Incredible. I do try to take nice pics at concerts, but some of these are really some of the best I've done of Coldplay (because I was so freaking close - not a result of any special skill on my part). Will throw up a few samples here, but too tired to recode all 200ish of them into the different format this board uses... :LOL: See my full review and all pics here (video still uploading here at hotel): iHeartRadio Concert Photojournal: Review of Coldplay Charity Event at Club Nokia in Los Angeles on 2/8/2009 Sample pics: Was lucky enough to get Guy's set list: They skipped LOST! & Politik. Anyway, I need some sleep. Totally awesome. And met up with soooo many awesome members of Coldplaying. They (you) were everywhere! Jason P.S. Also tweeted a special surprise message from the venue: Fantastic review and it was nice to meet you! Not sure if you remember me...we talked briefly about your dog and some shows you're going to up north and etc. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dany93 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Thanks a lot for the review and the pics Jason! :nice: Iheart radio was done before the 2nd encore. Chris told the audience beforehand. So when he came out after the radio was done he said he could now say things like F**K and S**T :laugh3: that's Chris :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James. Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Sounds amazing! Is this the first MX-era show with 2 encores? :thinking: If so, then maybe UATW + ENL will be the 2nd encore for the rest of the tour! :wacky: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soradiculous Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 UP IN FLAMES THIS IS INCREDIBLE, JASON!!! I'VE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS ALL MORNING!!! gonna be taking your pictures, just so you know! (but i'll give you all the credit) so glad i met you and dianne! you guys are officially my new "freaky coldplay friends"! wish they had done lost! and politik, but hey I CAN'T COMPLAIN. i must say, i've been to many shows in my time, both in arenas and intimate settings, festivals, indoors and outdoors -- many were out the this world; many have been all of fun and unforgettable, BUT I CAN HONESTLY SAY LAST NIGHT WAS LIFE-ALTERING. AND NOTHING WILL EVER BE ABLE TO TOUCH IT. check my twitter for some more pictures from last night! username: soradiculous if anyone wants, i'll upload us against the world and everything's not lost -- i've got those in it's entirety! DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THE STREAMING LAST NIGHT HAS BEEN RIPPED AND READY FOR DOWNLOAD??? tuesday night i couldn't sleep 'cause i was having nightmares that i was gonna be the 100th person in line at 7am... but LAST night, i couldn't sleep because i'm on too much of high! sigh. Yeah, okay, it is 4 am and I've been writing an article about this concert, after showing up at the venue at 8 am (now yesterday) and standing around for 13 hours... it was that freaking good!

backstreetchix97 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I hope you all enjoyed it. Bit disappointed they didnt sing any new songs but oh well. Perhaps they are still working on them... :P You mean new songs that aren't on the MX album? Cos they did a lot of songs off that album actually :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFDianne Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Jason, I was in giggles from seeing you & Dianne nonstop on my computer last night. The camera man loved y'all! Is this your number 1 then over Newcastle & Madrid? Um, yeah, so I heard. LOL Seriously, it was the best concert I've been to. Don't know if it was the delirium from waiting all day - I got there at 10:30 and met up with Jason, Mike, Angie and a few others - or just the sheer awesomeness of being *RIGHT THERE*. The boys seemed to be in an exceedingly good mood - lots of smiles and the "looks" we all know. I'm going through my pics now, some are pretty darn good. And I hope I didn't embarrass myself too bad on camera and god forbid, they better not have caught any of my singing. I will leave you with this picture, though :) Ok, and this one... Well, and one more... Last one for now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFDianne Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 The band soundchecked The Beatles 'Get Back'. I assume that is what they will play at the Paul McCartney tribute concert. It sounded good. I'm at the airport waiting to fly home. Still haven't been to sleep. Hope I can nap on the plane. Full review coming later. We also swear we heard "Eye of the Tiger" during soundcheck. Hahaha. Hope you got to nap some Angie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueberry426 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Jason, your pictures look amazing! Thanks for sharing them! I watched the show online and I think I saw Dianne and you. :) Love that puppet picture too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trojanchick99 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Amazing show. My only disappointment is I didn't have my camera. I love the new songs live, most especially Charlie Brown (which was already my favorite). The crowd around me was very LA in a bad way, however it was great to hear the singing during the intro to Viva la Vida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iduran20 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 I saw you guys Dianne, Jason, and Angie a few times. They even showed you Dianne in the big screen behind Coldplay. :) Jason, were you the lucky person who purchased the Coldplay puppets that the oracle mentioned were sold off for a charity? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afeather Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Thanks Dianne for once again bringing up "Eye of the Tiger" -- I JUST got it out of my head not three-four hours ago! I have such a love/hate thing with EOTT song too, so I need something else to invade my brain ASAP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
