That was the sweetest story!! :nice: How nice for you :)

Yeah I was kind of the same! I saw the C stage early on had some sort of spaces, but was lazy and sat in the seats for a while :P when I met my friends who'd volunteered for Oxfam, we just stood so we'd get second row for the C stage. It was fantastic to see the band so close, even if only for the two songs. I also quite enjoyed the space to dance around to the songs at the back for once, it was like a party atmosphere almost :cool:

Thanks so much for filming that... it was amazing!!! :nice: How long so many of us have waited to hear it :) (the only bad thing was that most people around me were talking at that point, so it's nice to remember it like this)

Great photos! I think I must have been standing right behind you when they came to this stage, my videos have exactly the same viewpoint! :D I'd never watched them at this stage before, it was really good and amazingly close!! (although I'll admit I did miss being as close for the rest of the show a little bit, haha :P )

Here's a video of the intro to Charlie Brown... [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YSoPqBlbQE]Charlie Brown intro at Coldplay Emirates Stadium 01/06/12 - YouTube[/ame] :dance:

HAHA! I came here to post that... but it's already here :D thanks Jen! I have some more to upload. I wish I was back there :/

For people moaning about it not being completely dark, yes, it wasn't completely dark for the wristbands with Hurts like Heaven, but for all the other songs a little later, it was perfectly dark :)

Just got back from London... it was an awesome gig! :dance: The stadium was a great venue. The fireworks were also amazing!! I couldn't get there very early, so it was nice not to queue up for hours for once and just wander around the pitch and seating area getting some different views. Luckily I could meet up with the girls volunteering with Oxfam too, and we had a great time watching from the back of the pitch (pretty far away though) but standing near to the 'C stage'... when the band finally got there, it was excellent - I've never watched at that stage before, but you're soooo close to them, even closer than when you're at the very front!! One more thing... was so happy to have finally heard Warning Sign live for the first time ever in my Coldplay gig-going :nice: :nice: :nice: Great gig!! Have a great time everyone who's going tomorrow/Monday :)

Really looking forward to Friday... :D Anna, I'll have to try and find you girls to say hello :nice:

Thanks, I really enjoyed watching that. Reminds me that they are always my favourite band :heart:

I think there is only one entrance for standing tickets! That's better really :)

:laugh3:

I think they're doing it on purpose to create the illusion of the gig (well particular areas like standing) being sold out... letting tickets go slowly. It's a shame... if they'd announced this gig a lot earlier, I think more tickets would have sold but it was a bit late notice. I hope for their sake that there aren't loads of empty seats!! Maybe they should have chosen a slightly smaller venue too... :confused: (although I know they've done that because they're there the night before) Still... should be a good gig :)

oh my goodness... that's sooooooo good!!! :o Really hope I can hear it some time... it's one of my favourites.

Awwwwwww :heart:

That's the best news ever!!!!!! (as long as it's not a one-off :P )

Ahhhh nooooooo! :cry: I thought you were probably all out of paying for gigs at the moment! I should have mentioned it anyway... bah.

I bought a ticket for this yesterday on a whim... looks like I did it just in time, no standing tickets left! Wish that I'd got one for the 9th but hey, hopefully this will be good... plus I quite enjoy Tinie Tempah's songs (avoids the objects being pelted at me :P )

Very nice pics! :nice: Tambourine woman was so irritating... she must have had a few drinks and couldn't understand why she wasn't wanted. :angry:

I liked his biker boots :D hahaha...

Haha!! That made me laugh... the ceiling was a bit grubby in places :P

VERY much enjoyed that moment.... :heart:

Yay!! That's great news :)

QUICK! there's another show added! :)

Me too :) I would have tried for the Saturday gig but can't make it because of something on the Sunday. Glad I could get one for this though. It's a long time away now!
