No not me.. i’m in Hamburg, just like Coldplay. They are about 30 meters away from me, just finishing the end of ‘Lost!’, from their new album ‘Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends’.
Now I can hear the crowd screaming.. which might mean they are about to play a special acoustic section, somewhere in the arena. The show is sold out again. These guys seem pretty popular you know.. Oxfam has again played it’s part in the evening. People stopping to ask who we are, ask about the shops, ask about 'Unwrapped', ask about OXJAM, ask how they can raise money in the marathon they are doing next week… ask why we are at a Coldplay concert in Hamburg? Because they invited us, of course.
The message is simple. It’s written on my wrist. “Deine Stimme Gegen Armut”. (Give your voice against poverty). Oxfam. Time for the encore. . . (once the band have run past this little office, back to the stage!)
