goh, I don't know exactly, we spended quite some time on the other side of the backstage( where we saw Guy) , had a few drinks after...so hhmm, I think it must be 1.5hours after the concert, or a little bit later....and you girls?

but that was only 10min. after the concert was done but I'm pretty sure they leaved not long after I saw him.

So after the concert we hang around in the venue as we wanted to walk the same way as Coldplay did when they ran from the stage to the C-stage for the acoustic set( haha, I'm a freak, I know). We kept walking further and further 'till we saw a cord( don't know exactly how to say in english) which means you may not walk further anymore, but there was no security around..so we walked under it and we were next to the stage then. On the other side there was a door...and it got open! Still no security.. then there was this little hall to another door which opened aswell and there we saw a sort of refter for the roadies etc( all their bags, food,) and after that another door! We just kept walking into the backstage, man, that was so exciting, the thought that every moment you could see a coldplay member maybe or... in the worst case the security who sends you out). And then we stood in front of a door with 2 little windows in it, we looked trough it and we saw doors of toilets and I think....dressing rooms aswell!!! I knew coldplay was somewhere very near then! We stood there( me + a friend) looking trough the little window and saw a woman coming, couldn't see clearly who it was, my friend ran away but I hid behind the door :d. I looked again trough the window and I saw someone coming out of the toilet. I was shocked( security maybe) and started to run back a little bit, but noticed he started walking in the opposite direction and I thought ' I KNEW this person, the hair, the length, he turned his face a bit to the right( didn't see me yet) and it was.....GUY BERRYMAN! Coming out of the toilets!omg! I yelled to my friend to come back, so she could see Guy aswell, and we stood there pointing at him and yelling etc...haha, then he looked back , trough the window, and his face was like' huu, what's going on here' omg he looked at us! But because we were yellying so hard a security man saw us and we had to leave there. The moment we saw Guy went so so fast, but it was amazing! I think he was wearing a black shirt and jeans( if someone's interested in his clothing, hehe:d) and looked absolutely gorgeous! I wanted to see the other guys so hard that we ran outside the venue, to the back. and like Chavi and Carla said, we saw a door, wide open, with ' Backstage lounge' written above it. ( that was 1 hour after the concert I think) . There were chairs for the security but no one sat there, it was totally empty in there and then I saw THE ping pong table, haha:d we entered the backstage lounge and climbed up the stairs, went further, 'till we saw that bar like Carla and Chavi did...It was so cool to think the lads have been there, there were still drinks on a table( maybe where they were relaxing etc)...We also saw the door where they entered the stage I think, not sure of that... but no doors or stairs anymore, we could't go to the dressing rooms etc... but WAUW, what an amazing experience: Seeing Guy truough a little window( just for a few seconds) and a part of the backstage from coldplay... We went back to get out again, and I think there were standing 2 girls next to the door of the backstage lounge, and I'm pretty sure it was you girls,, chavi and carla! :d

OMG I think I saw you, Carla and Chavi in the backstage lounge!( see later on in my post) As you can see, I'm not a very active member, but I read this forum almost every day, SO: it was my 1st time seeing them live and I absolutely wanted to be there( I have been a fan for 5 years) front row, but we had seats( same price like standing-tickets) so we tried get to the centre area( standing-places) but we weren't allowed to with our tickets( I knew there wasn't much kope for that) When we saw our places in the area I was quite dissapointed, we were seated quite far away from the stage. Then Albert Hammond Jr. started, I liked the music, I really did, but the sound was soo bad from where I sat! It really hurted my ears. Time for coldplay now: the sound wasn't much better and most say the problem with Chris micro got solved after 2 songs, but I thought it was only after the 10th song or something it was totally solved. But the show was absolutely great. Chris has to be the best frontman ever! But the amosphere round my place was so bad..me and 2 other friends were the only one dancing , singing, clapping to all the songs. Because of that and because of the fact we were seated that far away, I never had that ' Wauw-feeling', I liked it, but it wasn't really special to me.. BUT then there was a little pause and suddenly everyone in the venue looked to a point right after me, so I turned around, and there they were, 10m from me they were playing the acoustic set!little Very awesome to see them so close. When they stared on the big stage again with Politik, the sound suddenly was perfect and then it was amazing!t It's my fav live song! Lovers in Japan was absolutely beautiful aswell. Glass of Water really surprised me, very cool song and even cooler they only played this in Antwerp!! Yellow was the final big sing a long and then it was over....Amazing show! But good god, I was so jealuous of the people who were standing in the centre area, the atmosphere seemed so great there. But the coolest thing has to come after the concert, I have to go now but I will post the backstage adventures later this evening.

OMG those pictures from the Oakland show are awesome!! Chris is incredible hot with his shirt a bit open!!! He should do that often:wink3:

i can't choose between arobthh and amsterdam for the moment it's arobthh i think, it has just great lyrics en chris' voice is so so good, especially when he sings"....till i fill all your hears desires" :heart:

I just love the lyrics of Amsterdam, trouble, AROBTTH, we never chanche, warning sign,...

Chris' oohhh's in Moses are so sexy :wink3: ( live dvd 2003)

Moses 'say it's forever'

gravity :heart:

woah!!! :stunned: this is incredible!! iv' dreamed so many times about this... i'm verry happy for you!!!!

I hope A Message, but I think it will be What if.

Moses, Warning sign, fix you, gravity, trouble ...they have all briliant lyrics. sometimes i don't understand why everybody is saying that Chris must write better lyrics :confused:

I've heard also that Coldplay no more will play at the piano?? :angry: maybe it's because people say that coldplay is boring... but coldplay without piano...isn't Coldplay anymore, so i hope this is not true!!

I love them all, but i think Low is the worst song on x&Y..

Poltik is a great opener, also for a concert.

this is a hard one.. A message for me. What if or the scientist?
