people started screaming when they realized they were there... i couldnt care less... they were all the way up the mezanine, wouldnt trade my place on 2nd row to be near them for all the money in the world!! :dozey:

wow guys... thank you so much for all the things you are saying. I never thought I would have so many responses to what I wrote. I dont think it was supposed to be a review in the begining, but it ended up being one. I wrote all that at 3am after getting home from the concert. I just think as this was exactely my feelings at that moment, i knew it was also the feeling of most people that were with me at that concert.

the encore in south america has been basically Swallowed in the sea, In my place and Fix you, but last night, Jonny and Chris came back again and sang Shiver!!!

yeah they played a sort of acoustic shiver in the end!!! it was beautiful!

I know Suzana already did a thread, but since I was at the airport, and hotel and concert on the fist night I thoght I'd open another thread to post the pictures and more details of what happened. Mods, feel free to put the 2 threads together!! here goes the detailed story... it all started on the 25th, when all of us (from coldplaybr) went to the airport to try to see Coldplay arriving. After 3 hours of waiting and a lot of anxiety and crossed information, we got to know that the band had already left through an alternate exit. I went, along with Ana and Edu (people I met at the airport), by car to the hotel, to try to get there before the band, but no luck. As soon as we arrived we were informed by a group of girls that were already there that the band had arrived 20 minutes before us and that someone from the crew told them that they didn’t want any contact with the fans. That didn’t really make us give up. We tried to get in the hotel, managed, by using a little bit of theatre, but as soon as the manager noticed we were probably fans, we were kicked out. Again, not a reason to give up, we stayed at the hotel door until 11:30pm waiting to see if the band would come out. No one did, so we had to go home, but with the promise of coming back the next day and not leaving until we saw Chris, Jonny, Will and Guy. the group from Coldplaybr (the brazilian Forum) at the airport The perfect day starts… We said we would meet at 8am in front of the hotel. Well, I only managed to get to there at 10:15, but no problem, since no one from the band had appeared so far and the only information we had was from a driver that saw Will having breakfast at around 8. We waited, and waited, and waited. Quietly (almost), without making any mess, across the street from the hotel front door, in a very peaceful and civilized way. We were about 15 people, a huge banner, magazines, cd covers, boards, and etc for the band to sign. At around 12, the first reward: Will gets out of the hotel front door, no security guard around, just accompanied by his wife Marianne and a tour manager to go out for a walk. One by one we got our autographs and pictures, and after he left, the feeling that this was a good sign, and that more was to come was established among the group. Will gets out After Andre (coldplaybr admin) talked to one of the tour managers our hopes went even more up. She told him we were being very cooperative, and that if we remained like that, without making any mess, it was very probable that the band would come out from the front door of the hotel and that they would probably talk to us. After a few more hours waiting, the securities start to come out and organize the cars to leave with the band. We were nervous and apprehensive, mostly because it was starting to seem that the band wouldn’t talk to us at all. security guys getting organized We were all holding the banner when Chris finally came out of the front door, stopped at the opposite sidewalk, and crossed the street!!! It was just the sweetest moment. We all let go of the banner, and when we saw Jonny and started calling him, he also came. Shaking hands everywhere, everyone could barely talk, but we got pictures, autographs, smiles, laughs, recordings of Chris saying: “Coldplaybr.com”, I handed him a letter from Ana, that had to go back to work, and he seemed sad that someone had to leave, and got a laugh from him, after trying to take a picture with this security guard but settling with a picture OF the security guard, with Chris behind laughing at that strange request. We even asked them to play Shiver, but got an “I don’t want to play shiver” as an answer. And if you are wondering about Guy, well, some people saw him quickly, but he got straight in the car, no pictures, no autographs, but we didn’t really care so much anymore. Chris and Jonny come to us After they left, shaking hands were still there, smiling faces, screams, jumps, hugs and tears, lots and lots of tears - Of happiness, of course. And 5 minutes later, rain, A LOT of rain. But we didn’t really care, the day was already one of the bests of all our lives, and the concert was still to come at night! The autographs Chris Jonny Will It´s show time!! I get to Via Funchal (where the concert was happening) and when go to my seat I realize not only it was closer than I imagined, but I was practically on the stage, it was just amazing. At 9:15pm the opening band starts. Not as bad as imagined, but not so good anyways. This is how close I was to the stage We were all too anxious for Coldplay to start to actually pay attention to anything. They started playing at about 10:20pm and it was just beautiful. From the first song until the last, everything was just amazing. The opening with Square One; The powerful lights during Politik; The balloons coming from the back during Yellow, the balloon that I managed to throw over Chris´s piano (which seemed to almost cause him a heart attack), followed by the balloon that the girl in front of me threw on Chris´s microphone and almost took his teeth off (but only made him start laughing about it); the speed ending of Clocks that seemed as if Will´s arms were gonna fall at the end as he put so much strength to the drums; the surprise walk to play Til Kingdom Come where they went to the middle of the crowd to play and made everyone get up on their chairs to try and see something; the comeback, with Swallowed in the sea (which by the end of it I was already crying my eyes out), followed by In my place and finished, of course, with Fix You, and the turning light over our heads and a thankful Chris on the Piano. But no, that wasn´t the end. As they finished, the whole crowd started asking together, in one voice for Shiver, and when I saw Chris giving a look to Jonny that seemed to say: “I don’t think we have a choice here” and whispering in Guy´s ear “Shiver”, I was sure, they were coming back to answer our plead. And they did, with Chris saying: “I´ve never seen a whole crowd ask for the same song at once like now. Fucking bastards! We haven't played this for a long time”. And with a bit of rehearsal, Chris and Jonny start playing the most awaited song of the night. He forgets the lyrics for the second part, but I don’t really care, I was screaming them from the top of my lungs, and after they finish and leave, the sensation is that the night was complete, finally. And after every friendly hug of celebration of the night, more tears would come, but again, only happy tears. And it was a general opinion that February 26th was one of the best days of a lot of people's lives.
