Really Jenjie? I don't know what's more embarrassing, six years living in Japan and not remembering how their time differs from the UK, or 27 living in the UK and not knowing how BST works!! :laugh3::embarassed: I'm managing to quite successfully convince myself that I'm gonna be gald to miss these Saitama gigs. I get distraught when Chris changes the 'dreaming of the Osaka sun' lyrics like he did at one of the London gigs. Wonder if it'll be 'Tokyo' or 'Kanto'. Surely won't be 'Saitama' (the armpit of Japan - though I jest - I do say that with affection) as they won't even admit they're playing there :P

I'm on my way to Saitama :dance: ...later this year...:angry::laugh3: Gutted to be missing this as I couldn't work out my trip back quite yet, but to be honest it's not an incredible venue (though the next door John lennon museum's pretty cool), and I much prefer the Osaka crowds to Tokyo area ones, so those are the shows that are really gonna hurt :cry: Lol @ this being called a 'Tokyo' show - might as well call gigs in Brighton 'London' shows :P Unless I've forgotten which way BST affects things, think so, yep!

Probably 20,000 true punters and 1800 touts applying from 1000 email addresses each :embarassed:

The venue's great and really tiny, this could be the best gig since Brixton. The view from the seating area is great :) I tried but obviously failed with the ballot :( I may not be able to make it anyway, and it's too soon to say about next week, but if I can I will try to get up there even without a ticket in the hope of getting one, and to say hello to a few people from here :kiss: That said, if anyone has a spare ticket please do get in touch. I will buy it and if I cannot make it myself I will pass it on to someone on here. (For people who don't recognise my lack-of-elephant-avi or username I was previously 'kimchi' but had to change it). Many thanks and have a great gig everyone!! :)

So glad this thread was bumped!! :)

Sorry to be so late back to the thread. It was a great night after all, after what a had been a very tiring and troublesome day for me, I even didn't think I'd make it at all at one point!! My legs were still aching from the night before, and I didn't feel too comfortable dancing like I wanted to on the tier. It even took me a few songs to warm up to my usual standard, but I have Chavi to thank for that :) Her energy and passion inspired me, and took me where I needed to be, and I think we had a rather good dance and singalong from that point onwards :P Thanks so much Chavi, it was an absolute pleasure to spend the evening with you, and so glad you got back safe and sound. And we never even got our photo together (booooo!!) but at least we have one from the night before. And please keep teddy secret from my sister and her partner just for now, and until I can get Kels over here and get that damn ring on her finger :P:sneaky:

Thanks a lot Joe it was amazing my friend :) Just going through my pics of the night and as usual only one or two came out boooo. You can see how close we were but that's about it. At least I got to finally punch one of the Yellow balloons back into the heavens after years hoping to be that close :P

Ah I just read through the entire thread again and saw a load of stuff I missed when I first got home :laugh3: Hehe I just found this and was wondering why the nice Aussie girl we were sitting next to and I was telling all about you suddenly went a bit less friendly early on in the gig - seems like a pretty good possible explanation :P Nor does kimchi :cool::laugh3: That was her story too :P And thanks a lot Jen it was the best time I've ever seen the boys :dance:

I just get home and online and the thread's already over...grrrr LOL

You do, and I thank you for it my friend, merci beaucoup!! :D

The show was good, I was danced my little ass off as always, probably upset the people behind me but who cares?! I was twenty feet away from Chris as he sang The Hardest Part solo, and having seen them six or so times from the start of the X&Y tour I never even heard that once...I feel so glad and blessed. I had a ring on my finger from the girl I love like no other (and a girl I have to run off and find what she's been posting in my absence!! :D) I met Chavi and she is just as wonderful and kind as she appeared in her Chrissy signing vid. My only regret is that I didn't meet Lauren (Lauve) but it is only a matter of time :) My goodness the highlight of the night was hearing 'now my feet won't touch the ground' throughout the various songs...no CoL but they better bloody play it tomorrow or there will be trouble of the kmchi kind :D

lol you ladies...tsk tsk... *goes to smoke* love ya both!! :D

Anyone need any butterflies from this gig?? :D

Kimchi's home and just been talking to dad about important stuff (such as why my bedroom smells like a supermodel!! :P) It was an incredible gig, LiTii was just amazing, and the ring on my finger made me so very happy, I can't describe... a pic or two soon...

I'm not as excited about this gig as I should be for some reason, perhaps it's just because i'm going tomorrow night too, perhaps not. Anyway, a few of us are already meeting up at the o2, so anyone who wants to join our modest party please do get in touch :)

Hehe, yes that'll be me I'm afraid. I'll probably be sobbing right through that song too, but at least of course it'll be the first time I've bawled my eyes out during a Coldplay gig *cough* :P

Thank you dear friend, I will try my best to party hard both for myself and the two wonderful ladies who can't make it there in person, but will be very much with me in my :heart: And I suppose it's a bit late in the year to be wearing a poppy, but wear it I shall :) I must also apologise to all the bootleggers in advance, because I'll no doubt be ruining all their recordings with my 'singing' during Lovers in Japan :P

My spare ticket for this date has now gone. There may be one more available right on the day if my sister's newborn boy decides to make an appearance right at that moment, then I guess her partner will probably have to attend the birth rather than the gig :laugh3: I have a special request for this show, please, that as we are sitting on the first tier we won't be getting some butterflies. I NEED some butterflies from this gig for some very special friends, would some kind soul please help me with this? Many thanks in advance :)

Well, the big day is almost here :dance:

I've been a bit out the loop here for a week or two, and see there are spare tickets being offered. Just to say that I will probably have one spare in block 110, quite a nice seat. There will be three gentlemen in my group and the ticket is spare because my dear little sis is too close to giving birth to my little nephew to feel much like going. I am asking for the face value plus the booking fee, not a penny more than I spent on it. Please PM as soon as possible if interested, as I'll be listing it elsewhere soon if there's no interest here. Other than that, who else is up for pre-gig drinkies and chat? See you all soon!! :)

Oops *goes back to playing with his teddy bear* :P:kiss::P

What are you lot twittering on about? :laugh3:

Never! :D Jon Hopkins

Really great show on all fronts here!! :D

^ excuses, excuses Mich, tsk tsk :lol: Wow, just noticed your sig, you made two gigs in the States?!!? :o:D
