Sessy Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Never. I'd like to but I hate concerts because of how close smelly people get to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakfak Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 <P>I've seen them live at least once every tour since AROBTTH (including last summer)., Mostly in Chicago, but once at Alpine Valley as well. In total about 6 or 7 times. Obviously, I really like going to their gigs, but they do have a mixed reputation as a live act. (I'm not going to rehash all the common complaints, but it should be easy to find them on other theads). Personally, I think the band is quite different live than on record. They sound rock-ier in person and they're one of the tightest bands I've ever seen live, especially the rythm section. I also think you get a better sense of how the songs from the different albums fit together live. I'd go at least once and make up your own mind about them live as opinions on their live show seem to run the full spectrum.</P> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coeurli Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Never been to a Coldplay concert, but I'm attending their gig in Paris on September 2nd :D Can't wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrincessofChina Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I had my first Coldplay gig last December; Ahoy, Rotterdam (Holland). I don't have enough words to describe it. It was like a continuous high.. I was so caught up in the moment that I didn't even recognize the intro of Paradise:D It was amazing & the Xylobands even made it more magical. Best night of 2011, hands down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R23 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Saw them live three times, two times here in Holland (2009 and 2011) and once in Belgium (during last years Rock Werchter-festival). I agree with fakfak, the experience live is quite different than on the record. The last show I saw them play was truly the most epic one, because with only 10.000 attendees it was the most intimate show I saw them play. Also all the extras (Xylobands, confetti, balloons) they put in the show make it an impressive experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

l0wxo2 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I've seen them 13 times and am seeing them 4 more times between April-July. Seeing them live becomes an addiction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J4MIE Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I saw them in Glasgow in 2005 (I think), was a brilliant experience, beautiful summer evening as the sun went down, huge crowd. Brilliant memory. Booked to see them twice in the next few months so hoping for more of the same!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
