Pie! :cheesy:

Yay for the boys! :dance:

There's a thread just like this from earlier this year, I'll try to dig it up for you. :nice:

Some photos :wacky: Miller and Hoppy (and some other roadie/worker): Chris being adorable: All the boys (except Will is a bit blurry): My view of the B-Stage: More pics and vids to come soon!

Well, they play The Blue Danube right before the boys come on... :thinking:

Unreal? What do you mean by that? Ahh, yes! He looked exactly like him from that point onwards. For a split second I wondered if they replaced Gambon with Ian McKellen. God, I'm like obsessed with Tom Felton right now. He was incredibllllle!

It's a little too late to say all of this, but I feel like I was naive and stupid. I'm not referring to my feelings for you (cos those haven't changed), but more to how quickly we took things. I think we jumped into it all without hesitation, and I think we both know that wasn't really the best thing to do. I feel like I acted too ditzy and silly about it all. And I know we won't be able to try again for what seems like forever, but I had to say all this anyway. I just hate feeling like you're some sort of contraband that I'm not allowed to even get near, you know?

I picked Lovers In Japan, but I think my two absolute favorites are The Hardest Part & One I Love. :heart:

It looks like our views were practically identical. :wacko: Were you wearing a light blue Coldplay shirt? I think I saw you taking a bunch of videos a few rows in front of me. :P

You should be fine! For my concert on Monday, Shoreline claimed that they only allow non-professional and very small cameras, so I brought my tiny point and shoot instead of my nicer camera. But once I got into the venue, I saw plenty of people with cameras like that or even DSLRs with huge lenses (and they weren't professional photographers or anything). So, as long your venue is outdoors, it shouldn't be a problem- they don't seem to care nearly as much as they do at indoor arenas and stuff.

I recognized about 10 roadies at Monday's show (thanks to this thread), and I have pics of all of them. Will post tomorrow! :wacko:

I'm still struggling with the opening, or the "hook"; I haven't even made it to the actual show yet in my entry. I have two opening paragraphs, and I can't decide which I like better. I shall type them up and post them both here tomorrow for you guys to decide! God, I have to get what I learned in English class out of my head. :lol:

Awesome, I'm very happy for you! :nice: So were your seats actually up on the stage?

I couldn't have said it better, Chris! I agree with absolutely everything you said. The humor in it was awesome, especially when both Ron and Harry were pretty much on durgs. :lol: I couldn't stop cracking up during the whole Felix part! And Tom Felton's acting was absolutely brilliant! Seeing it at midnight was awesome too, although we had to sit on the floor because there were absolutely no seats left, even though we got there an hour early. And the audience was amazing, everyone there was dressed up in something ridiculous and was extremely hilarious. :P Overall, I'd give it an 8/10. And I definitely want to see it again, it's without a doubt one of the best films yet.

I'm leaving right now for the theater! :dance:

I have a lot more photos, but for now I'll just post this: JONNYFEST!

AHH. Ok, I'm more calm now than I was last night, but everything still seems all surreal and crazy. You could say Coldplaying Karma was with me and wasn't with me last night. My friend and I got to Shoreline at about 6:15, and immediatley went and bought shirts. I originally picked the LiT one and my friend got a tour shirt, but when we went to the bathroom to change we both stupidly dropped them in the sink. :lol: So we took them back just to see if we could trade them in, and the merchandise lady was totally nice about it. Instead of an LiT one I got a DAAHF shirt, though, which I love!!!! Anyway, we were handing our tickets to the agents, when a huge security guy came up and asked to see my sign. He then asked what seats we had, and I told him we were the 14th row, and he said he'd have to take my sign away. I got really upset and asked him why, and he claimed it was too big and would block everyone's views. I tried telling him I just wanted to show it to the roadies and have it after the show, but he wouldn't let me in and took it away. :bigcry:! We then went to our seats, which were in section 101 (on the very edge of the amphitheatre), but we had seats in row N, the 14th row. We were kind of off to the side, but very close to the catwalk, and the view was still incredible! The opening acts were both nice, but I wasn't paying too much attention because of excitement. We spent the time after Amadou & Mariam and before Coldplay playing "I Spy" with the roadies, and I found Miller, Franksy, and Hoppy, among others. No Phil though! And then Coldplay came on. The entire show was amazing (way better than San Jose last summer!), and Chris was his usual entertaining self. I don't remmeber exactly everything he said, but he had some pretty funny quotes. :P He seemed to think San Francisco was the best place to play at and had the best fans (which is true! :nice:). Yellow was incredible with the giant balloons, and Chris was hilarious trying to head-butt them and pop them with the neck of his guitar. My Coldplaying Karma arrived right before Coldplay went up to the B-stage for GPASUYF. My friend noticed that security had put caution tape between all the seats and the aisle. We figured out just in time that that meant the guys were coming up this way on their way to play in the crowd, so she got the camera set up and let me lean over the caution tape. Security kept yelling at me for leaning too far, but it was worth it! Jonny, Guy, and Will came running up and I was able to slap Jonny's hand! Guy and Will ran by, but a moment later Chris came up. I was prepared and reached out, and grabbed on to his bicep!!!! :dance: The B-Stage setlist was awesome as well, and our seats were about equidistant from the regular stage and the B-Stage. I was prepared for the boys on the way down, and although I didn't touch Guy or Chris again, I gave Jonny a second hand slap and got one from Will too! :cheesy: The rest of the night was amazing. The crowd went crazy during the Viva chanting, and I had to pour a bottle of water on myself after jumping around so much during Viva. :P Our seats were really incredible, and Chris went crazy on the little catwalk which was only a few rows in front of me. The crowd seemed to love Chris's humor, and the Mexican Cell Phone Wave/Billie Jean, both up on the lawn, were awesome! I also got two copies of LRLRL, and at the end of the show security gave my sign back. It was a nightmare getting out of Shoreline though, the parking lot/road there sucks! I have tons of videos and a bunch of pretty decent pics. I'll upload them ASAP (which means like, tomorrow). :heart:

Have so much fun tonight, everyone! I am beyond jealous that I'm only an hour away and won't be going. :( Oh well, last night was incredible anyway! :wacky:

AHHAFHDFLKAHFSLSAFH. I just got home, it was fucking amazing, the best night of my life. Can't write now, I'm SO tired and sweaty and need a shower/bedddd. BUT I TOUCHED CHRIS MARTIN! (and Jonny and Will! Guy was being silly and shy, but OMG ANYWAY). :dance: :bomb: :wacky: Will post a full review and lots of pics and vids tomorrow!!!! Edit: Didn't get to hold up my sign btw, security took it away because it was "too big" at the very start. Grrr. :bigcry:

8:36 PM :nice:

:laugh3:

Oh god :bigcry: Is there any chance he'll cut it between right now and tomorrow night? Please Chris, please! :wreck:

IT'S FUCKING TOMORROW!!!!! :surprised: :dance:

I'm gonna quote this so you can't delete it :lol:

It just started for me, but yeh. Terrible movie :(
