I'm absolutely postive.. I would remember Guy sitting at the Piano :wacky: review in process

Camille: :heart: your detail review of all days :nice: must say I am a little bit jealouse of all the time you guys got to spend with the other coldplayers, sounds like loadds of fun! even though I got to other great wasy to spend my time and awesome company.. Yeah you lucky girl! :dance: we said hi to your roadie the next day :nice: he rememberd us and was VERY nice! we asked him for a setlist but he said he didn't get one that day :( Our life of concerts is sooo exhausting!! will you meet up with coldplayers again at U2? must thank you again for taking your hat off during B-stage :nice: and I liked it so much that I bought one like yours at werchter, that and I needed some sun protection :rolleyes: @anna, glad your presentations went well :nice: you know we were wondering about them!

about white lies... errhhh I was tired *ducks away* :uhoh: hmm that setlist says arras in the bottem right corner, and Chavi managed to get guys setlist at the end, they crossed off COL but I actually photographed that very same setlist before the show, and it wasn't crossed of so it must have been a last minute descision.. but all of that goes for arras..

edit: ^^ I loved chriss personal touch, but he did not say white lies as they preforemd a differnt day, he said amy macdonald :lol: tnx perrine :P werchter review will have to wait sorry... must sleep now :sleep:

if anyone has an Iphone with 'listen' app on it it should be easy to idientify as this prigram finds EVERY song for you.. unfortunatly I can't do it for you as I have no i phone :\

Yellow.. it starts to rain.. but I couldn’t care less.. we neeeeeeed to coold down so the rain is heaven sent to us, chris appologises for it in french :nice: ‘je suis desole il pleut’ Have to put my camera away though, to protect it. Never noticed the rush on yellow, just in the video after wards, and it still rocked.. woohoo :guitarist: 42 uhh me :heart:s I know that… but its kind of a gap in my brains so you’ll have to believe others on their word :P fix you.. coldplayers join hands hug and what not more, and I cried.. but the rain hid that for me nicely :P it will always be my fav live song, and I need Chavi close to me to enjoy it most. The rain wasjust really fitting there.. strawberry swing also sooo approptiate! Grey or blue doesn;t matter as long as coldplay is there it’s sooooo perfect!! Off to bstage now just as the rain stops, like it’s part of the show (lucky bastards:P) the couple seconds we get in between are also very welcome, as we need them to whipe the tears ehrr I mean sunscreen out of our eyes with Anna’s o so handy tissues (tnx again hun :kiss: ) GPASUYF and Talk I just looooovvee so much and have to dance like a maniac.. sorry if you were next to me and got seriously bumped :blush: Try to get a video for THP.. but it’s diffucult to see over the heads..

Chris is sooo funny laying on the floor as we all continue ooh-ing :nice: Then we roll on to lost.. Guy on drums.. :wacky: still as hot as I remember:P Time for C-stage… indeed they go down the stair to head to the back We get green eyes :heart: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQh2DQTcC4k]YouTube - green eyes by coldplay @ Arras main square festival[/ame] the video is kinda bounce but consider I filmed this from the front row it’s not bad at all then chris introduces will for DWNC which is laways the cutest!!

Shaky vid to prove that: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phk0Ydnvrl0]YouTube - politik by coldplay @ Arras main square festival[/ame] Lovers in japan gahh themoment I most look forward too :nice: soo good with the butterflies! The atmosphere is just perfect.. a little bit a of a panic attack for some roadies, because of the rain the canons got wet and something went wrong I guess.. funny moments there but luckiky the man himself was there to help out :P DAAHF nooooo it’s nearly over :bigcry: The first goodbye: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auqMdBUnwc8]YouTube - coldplay saying goodbye@ Arras main square festival[/ame] thank god they come back for the scientist, I love it in it’s original version :heart: that’s how it’s meant to be, start with just chris and then one by one jonny guy and will joining in * sigh * [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4SSNF0fzG8]YouTube - the scientist by coldplay @ Arras main square festival[/ame] LITii yayyyy I love it soo much and the crowd ‘dumming’ along hahaha sooo great!!! Cannot stand still during this, yet where can I :thinking: anywaysss [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yuS1dzibHMg]YouTube - the final goodbye by coldplay @ Arras main square festival[/ame] That IS the end of it ☹ but we have another day of coldplay ahead of us :D We wait till the square empties, while Mounira gets butt loads of biutterflies shoved in her hands, and Chavi get’s Guy’s setlist * is not jealous at all * funny enough it was the same I had photographed before it had COL on it before but is now crossed off ☺ We all get a drink and hang out for a little bit as we say goodbye, I would have loved to hang out more, but unfortunatly we still have to walk to our car and have a 2 hour drive ahead of us to werchter, Anna’s is such a sweetheart for letting us use her bathroom at her hotel :nice: and once again I’d like to thank every coldplayer there fore being soo lovely and making me feel right at home, and especially for making the effort and speaking english with and around me! :nice: I hope to see all of you again, because I had a blast!! Around 1 am Chavi and I drive off to werchter once again enjoying coldplay on CD… To be continued…

More and more coldplayers arrived while we all tried to stay cool, and keep from a sunburn, pooring water over ourselves and telling the others to apply more sunscreen. I was sooo happy to meet all the other coldplayers, first Cha and Camille, who were sooo lovely, I was really looking forward to meeting Camille, since she’s done a lot for me, without even meeting her, and Chavi told me loads about her! :nice: And Later Anna, and Perrine, who joined us in line, and got some angry looks, but I couldnt care less, I felt like they deserved to be there. Didn’t get to talk to Perrine as much as I would have liked, But Anna, you’re the best! Can’t wait to see you again :hug: also Marsu joined us. Am I forgetting anyone? Sorry my brain is mush, just like everyone elses. Anyway, don’t know about the others, but in spite the heat I had a blast, talking with all of you and looking back on it time flew by! At 3pm the gates were finally opened and I don’t mean to whine, but I must say it was poorly arranged, I understand arranging the cue is not easy, but they could have made more of an effort, especialy when they finally did open, on the wrong side, so people coming in later got to go first, and made us wait another half our in the sun, while they could have placed us in the shade had they used their brains, also pushing became a lot worse then, and it was impossible to keep your first spot, the run was longgg and the road to it was un even I was a afraid to break my ankles but anyway.. My water tight agreement with chavi worked once again ( I carry the bag she holds my spot) and we made it to our front row frigging perfect guy side spots :dance: Guillomme is able to join us on the second row, and so is Mounira’s friend who arrived later because he had to set up their tent now more waiting begins only 9 hours more till coldplay, lots of pushing and hotness.. (not in a good way) but the security hands out water which we desperatly need.. M ward begins at 5.. good entertainment, but not my scene I have to say sorry.. But he does make time pass faster, and I think he and his band are doing lovely on stage. Amy macdonald is up then.. I wasn’t expecting much as I had scene a live registration once and it was very poor, but she suprised me in a good way, and I was able to sing a long with many of her songs. She did a lovely cover of mr brightside, that made the crowd go bonkers and was a fab preview for werchter :D I nearly died laughing when Chavi asked wher amy was from, while she come on with bagpipes in the background and had a HUGE scottisch accent, but I wasn’t supposed to tell you that :uhoh: :P * ducks away * Next up are the ting tings, wich I was most looking forward to next to coldplay, had no idea what to expect but they give a great show! Katie is my rollmodel from now on.. I want to be her!! :wacky: we spot Miller backstage and Chris, of whoem I could not get a piccie ☺ at that point.. short vid of the ting tings for who cares now it’s time to set up coldplays gear.. we try to attract roadie attention, which works for the one roadie with punker hair, loads of tattoos and earrings who gives us smiles as we yell for miller (or mille heur as some call him) matt hoppy etc etc.. they set up a set of stairs in the middle of the stage, and we KNOW there will be a C-stage, and they will run through the middle the wait is endless yet passes by quickly, and finally after 16 hours of waiting Magnificent starts playing and we go bezerk [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiOTeJ7HtzU]YouTube - Magnificent Coldplay opening @ Arras main square festival[/ame] side not on my videos.. I only too snippets cause I want to enjoy the concert myself, sounds is mostely crap, and I am unable tohold my camera still :P sorry for my singing along.. but I don’t care :P off course opening with LIT when I first spot the sparklers I nearly die, it’s been a while since I saw them last and it feels sooooo good to be back! At the end, the black nighty is supposed to be go down, by pulling it, but it’s stuck, drawing a good few laughs from all of the guys and us :lol: another roadie needs to join in and help :lol: we’re a bit into violet hill when it finnaly is comepletely off… VH coldplayers unite and hold up the awesome signs that Mounira made and said: ‘the old king is dead long love the kings’ and a drawing of MJ himself to witch Chris reponds at the end of VH and I am sure they al read an noticed, esp guy who needs a few seconds to read it :D Clocks.. will love it foreverrrrr [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BUGd6EwWq0M]YouTube - clocks by coldplay @ Arras main square festival[/ame] In my place.. Ramp of love doesn’t exsist here, but Jonny has no problems using ramp of hotness when Chris asks him too hehe [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnwL0v6Z8PM]YouTube - in my place by coldplay @ Arras main square festival[/ame] Also we were on tv :dance: :lol:

Sooo I’ll put a different approach on my review this time.. remembering the agony I put you through last time, though not as exciting as it was last time but still pretty amazing to me here goes: Since the details on Chavi’s visit are VERY off topic I will spare you those, but I’ll just start by saying she arrived in Holland on sunday afternoon :dance: and we started our road trip on wednesday morning leaving schiedam at approximately 11:30.. and arriving at our hotel at 14:45 (checked my texts) trip was smooth and fun.. don’t need to tell you we listened to coldplay on the way up there.. Checked into our hotel (same as Anna’s), which was HUGE.. let’s just say there was enough space for us and coldplay.. but then again, I’d always have space for coldplay.. even if it is one by one :P Aaaaannyway, then we went to check out the main square which was right around the corner, and met up with Mounira and her friend (don’t know how to spell his name) who were super nice!! We had some real lunch, in stead of surviving on cookies :P and discussed our plans for the morning.. since chavi and I had a real late lunch we didn’t need dinner yet while mounira and her friend did, so we went back to our room and met up with them again later.. had a nother look around town and returned to the square where I spotted the beat the street busses (even though Mounria and Chavi we’re walking up front and looking in that direction :confused: :P ) and knew coldplay crew had arrived. we hung around there for a while, untill Mounira and her friend (some one tell me how to spell it) had to leave to get to their hotel, since theirs was further away, and it was going to be a long day the next.. Chavi and I gave it a go at the back of the stage, where we found an alley way where all important people seemed to go, and had a few words with Bash the drumtech, who seemed a bit tipsy :lol: Probably on this [/random] he said he was really busy when we asked him to talk to us, (not letting him know we were coldplayers) but he said he had to work, and hoped we’d be there when he returned 4 hours later :dozey: unfortunatly.. no.. so we returned to our hotel, knowing the band would surely not be there yet. We prepared our bags for the next day, and set our alarm at 5 am.. :stunned: Off course woke before my alarm went off, because I was far too excited.. and after we got dressed set off towards the main square with a first stop to our car to drop off our luggage, and arrived at the main square before 7 am, the first ones there :dance: so then the waiting begins.. we text Mounira who is already on her way, and she arrives just after 7 I think.. we try to get breakfast, a few other festival go-ers arrive, also coldplay fans. We try to get breakfast and me and Mounira are in despreate need of coffee, but can’t seem to get any untill a nice hotel owner gives us coffee in plastic beer cups with straws to stir, it has never tasted better :P we’re moved by security several times untill they set up the actual cue, in the middle of the sun..

Chavi talking here : reviews will come later, really dont have time to post anything right now... but the show was amazing..
