What song from previous Coldplay albums would you add the the concert set list?
A Message, Swallowed in the Sea (such a great song to sing with the crowd)

College - UMass Amherst. I just transferred too. The worse part is that the other school I was accepted into as a transfer, Northeastern, is 4 miles away! I wanted to go to NEU so bad but its just too much damn money. Oh well. I am content with savoring their performance of The Scientist just feet away. Wonder how much they will mix up the setlist.

Damn, I am going to be at school in Western MA. 2 hour drive to TD banknorth and it would be on a school night. Likelihood is unprobable. :( At least I had the experience of a lifetime for the first one.

This may seem to be a very obscure question but I figured I'd ask anyways. Did anyone recognize the tracks being played on the speakers just before Coldplay took the stage? (AKA between Santogold and Coldplay). I recognized it and it was a very nice tune but couldn't think it up, its still killing me

Also for people looking for pictures, I'll post what albums I've found on Flickr so far. - Acoustic Pictures http://flickr.com/photos/jcio/sets/72157606557304739/ - A great album of crowd and stage shots, pretty good quality too. - More stage + confetti shots http://flickr.com/photos/anima_/

First post here, came through here looking for pictures of the show and such and have been browsing through the thread. What an incredible show as everyone well knows. I was looking through some of the pictures and saw BostonSportsTD's and recognized they were Emma's. I'm Mike (AJ's friend from last night) so thought I'd say hello. Yesterday came about prettyspontaneously and I guess some kind of karma was paying me back because my friend gave me a free ticket to last night's show (I had to offer at least some money a few times). Believe me I was shocked and a half. Coldplay's always been a band I've loved but I didn't want to spend $100 on a ticket, so when my friend offered me the ticket I was stoked beyond belief. I got off work and we headed into Boston. The whole show was fantastic overall but some of the standouts to me included the video spheres and general lighting effects. Nothing quite like a stunning audio + visual combination. My favorites were probably Politik, Yellow, In My Place, Life in Technicolor, Yes, hell the whole show, just an awesome selection of songs. I would have liked to see Square One but oh well. Politik was the song that got me into this band, I remember watching them play an absurdly passionate performance of it in the 2003 Grammy's, so I was definitely glad to see it played in front of me. Around the end of Lost!, I say to my friend "hey look what is that guy standing on?" It looked to be like a mini-stage of sorts. Then I saw a guitar, and a few more and I knew it. We immediately started walking down and could hear the crowd gettign louder as the band ran up. The next few minutes were unreal. They played the Scientist and the whole time I just couldn't believe how close they were. I found this picture on a Flickr page. My friend and I are off to the left, I'm in the white shirt. After they left I couldn't even in remember the song that they had just played, was just amazed that a band of such status was right in front of me like that. Definitely something I will remember for a very long time. So there you go, I am one lucky and thankful fan, and needless to say, would easily pay $100 of my own if they came back to town.
