    Just got home. what a fantastic night. my first coldplay concert. Lights, sound and band were on top form. boy, can they rock...my ears are still ringing and my voice has gone from singing so much. chris was on top form and said he had been nervous about coming back to uk after so long away but that tonight he felt welcomed home by such a great response from us all...ive got to admit that the crowd really got into when they played Yellow early in the set instead of encore.....talking of encore...oh my god we got the sceinetist and...............................the world live premiere of Life in Technicolour ii.......wow it is great life...im just buzzing from the whole wexperience. Hard tp pick a favourite moment as it was all great, but personal highlights were Fix You, The Hardest Part, Politik and of course Life in Technicolour ii........brilliant. If you havent seen coldplay I highly recommend it. One of, if not the greatest band that I have ever seen live and I dont give that accolade lightly. [thanks bundy12]

     

    When they came on I though I was seriously going to pass out, Im soo glad I didnt though. I srceamed my way though every song, even the teary parts of Clocks, Yellow and Green Eyes. Still cant believe it, GREEN EYES for gods sake! And when they played LITii, it was absolutely mind blowing stuff. There was a bit of Back For Good (Take That) thrown in for good measure. Im afraid I got 0 photos and videos as I was far to busy screaming/ dancing/ crying to bother faffing about with zoomy cameras (I was Upper Tier)! I did however to get a bag full of butterfly confetti. [thanks Bebop28]
