I've been to quite a few concerts all over the country and would say that last night's crowd was above average in regards to their enthusiasm. 12K in attendence might seem somewhat unimpressive but considering it was the opening day of the College World Series (pretty much the biggest annual event in Omaha every year) the final numbers are fairly admirable for city with under 1 million people. The crowd was not booing Chris Martin. He had made a few comments earlier about why it had taken them so long to come to Nebraska (even though they were here 3 years ago). Towards the end of the show he joked with the crowd about it possibly taking another ten years to come back. The crowd responded with laughter and boos (jokingly) suggesting they wanted to see them back much sooner than that. Overall, I would say it was one of the best concerts I've ever been to. They certainly do know how to put on a show.
