Well done, Sydney! The last shows I have been to have been lacking in audience participation, so glad us Aussies are doing our bit! Nothing better than having 40,000 people singing the same thing at the same time. Spine tingling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tash Posted November 17, 2012 Author Share Posted November 17, 2012 Coldplay dazzles, and keeps the rain away "It's gonna be a good one, boys!" cried Coldplay singer/guitarist/piano guy Chris Martin, accurately, to his cohorts during opener Hurts Like Heaven. What do you want from a stadium rock show? Erupting fireworks, dazzling lasers and confetti cannons in overdrive? More-original spectacular sights such as 50 thousand raised fists illuminated by flashing multicoloured wristbands (supplied on entry and triggered by the band)? Anthems that can fill such an expansive venue and a frontman who can seemingly connect with everyone in it? These Brit rock world-beaters not only provided all this before the end of this evening’s second song (the lush ballad In My Place), they somehow seemed able to keep the rain away, too. Having instantly put a smile upon most faces by arriving to the stirring orchestral theme from the Back to the Future movies, the band spent the rest of the evening giving everyone, from first-time gig-goers to those who think they’ve seen it all, a large-scale concert experience as impressive as few others. If it sounds like they might as well have been playing any old nonsense and no one would have cared, such was the enormity of the spectacle, that wasn’t the case, either. Even with a set skewed heavily towards good-not-great current album Mylo Xyloto, Coldplay had plenty of their biggest (in every sense) tunes ready to drop at regular intervals: the achingly pretty The Scientist; after a sweetly muted piano-and-vocals-led intro, a vigorous Yellow; the pounding march of Violet Hill. Perhaps surprisingly, the Mylo Xyloto tunes stood up well, too. The aforementioned Hurts Like Heaven, formerly a rather goofy album opener, became rousing and vibrant, while Major Minus cantered along on a raw groove of aggressively strummed acoustic guitar and whipcrack beats (despite a botched - deliberately for comic purposes? - intro). Martin even played an impromptu verse and chorus of Elton John's Rocket Man in tribute to the band's current hotel neighbour. Most of the show was bombastically performed on the main stage in front of an elaborate graffiti backdrop and five huge circular screens. Some came more intimately presented at the end of a runway stretching into the crowd. There was even a brief, beautiful acoustic mini-set on a tiny stage towards the back of the stadium. Pretty much all of it was unforgettable. Coldplay play their second and final show at Allianz Stadium on Sunday. link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
