The Champion

My God. Let's just come back to the topic ok?

Will Champion is my everything.

Oh my God Will is like a symbol of freedom during the Viva La Vida. I absolutely love it. And ahah great post Jeremy. I really don't know what to do. They call it post-concert depression, but since the concert I repaired my bass and play on it all day and all night : D I will certainly drop the drumstick photos here later. I still can't believe it. WOW.

So here it goes as promised. We arrived around 9 am and hang around the stadium but you don't want to read that so I'll focus on the concert. Charli was quite good but Marina was really great. She did a wonderful job warming up the audience and her performance was energetic and pleasant. I loved how she said something like "Coldplay is in the dressing room right now so let's welcome them shouting as loud as you can". I understand now why they choosed her to be a support cause she really fits the job. As to Coldplay... Every song was perfect. During the previous gig I was more like hm... emotional and moved but this time I was just having fun and the Xylotour really gave me the best one of my life. Plus all those effects they used... I loved the fireworks and the confetti. The second one was of course during LiJ and IMP. I've seen many of those concerts when/where they use the confetti but it never looked as astonishing as then. It was literally everywhere. EVERYWHERE. Some even said they had it their mouth so they couldn't sing, lol. It's something you have to see with your own eyes. One of the most beautiful things I've ever experienced. It was like a huge, bright rain full of colours and joy. What could equal that were of course the xylobands. I was in the first row so I was surprised when I turned around and saw the whole stadium glowing. What an epic idea, it's undescribable. I was more on the Jonny side. I'm even like 95% sure that he winked to me and my friend. Then he smiled when we were shouting "Jonnyyyyyyyyyyy!!!". Then there was something with Guy or Chris, but I don't remember that well. No Will action, tough. PoC was great live. I know some people hate it but this song was one of the most powerful. I greatly enjoyed it. Will singing was great as always. I love Him behind the piano, pad, guitar or anything else so we can watch him properly not just hidden behind all the drums. You already know about the album, but someone said that he has my drumsticks, I mean, the one I made for Him that were with the rest of the presents. But it was probably just a gossip. DLIBYH was as great as I expected. Really. Gave me so much P O W E R. UATW was again one of the best and most touching of the night. And also once again, ETIAW was great as an outro. I left my place when the encore started because there was a quite low man behind me and he had trouble seeing the show I think. I went to the back because it was quite calmly at the front and I had to dance everything out of me. Anyway that would be it for the concert I think you're waiting for the other thing. Everyone started shouting "SETLIST SETLIST SETLIST" once the guys left the stage and I was a little confused. Mr. Roadie said he didn't have any and probably there are none left so I said them "Chill out people" but they kept yelling "SETLIST SETLIST SETLIST" so I went somewhere else. I stumbled upon my friend and wanted to have a photo with her and the guard because he was such a cute cute cute cute bear. But then, a polish technician threw something off the stage. I was confused but what else I could do I just grabbed it. Just imagine my shock. WOW it was a towel! I always wanted a thing like that because I kept reading about people winning meetings with the band or just really stumbling upon them on the street or making them sign something or receiving something from the roadies. But it was me this time. Finally. I asked him whose towel it was but he didn't know. But he indeed threw it being in the front of the stage so I'm pretty sure it was Jonny's or Chris'. I was holding it very tight so no one could approach me and tear it out and I was just running around the area of the stadium because I couldn't believe it. Then my friend came to me. Sha said: OH MY GOD YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT. I said: YOU WON'T BELIEVE IT TOO. And she said she got the drumstick. It was really a long way to get it but she did. She knew how much Will means to me and she told me she wants to give it to me. I was really speechless. I hugged her very very tight and told her that I have a present for her too. She was so happy when I told her what happened. When I think of it now... it was really one of the best moments. I remember when we wanted to meet the guys because there were some competitions in which the main reward was meet&greet or something like that. And there we are. Maybe we couldn't meet them, talk with them, but we managed to take out more than just memories from the show. After a few steps we stumbled upon the president of Alter Art - the organization which organises concert (for example HOF 2011 - first Coldplay concert, and this as well). We showed him what we got and thanked him. I told him that those concerts are the dreams come true and how Coldplay made me start my journey with bands and music. We shook his hand and greeted and he said something I would translate as: "til the next time". I hope he consciously chose vocabulary and we'll be able to see Coldplay soon : ) That's about my story of that epic night. Thank You for reading.

I believe in You Thalia :heart: Anyway, I have to agree with everyone. This gig was MAGIC. It was... EPIC. I can give you my review too (because a lot happened from my point of view) as long as me want me to.

:D

Did what?

He's the sacred beast.

In fact I haven't changed my wallpaper since 2010 but well... this is quite a good candidate for a new one.

But you can change your country on the bottom of YT page.

I'm sorry but this... this is just hillarious.

He's a legend. If I will ever have children or at least a nephew or niece I will tell them stories about Will Champion : D He was epic the whole night, especially during Viva La Vida, GPASUYF and ETIAW. He was playing that drums so fuckings hard. It's a shame they didn't show much of Coldplay on stage. I wanted to see Him sing on Viva La Vida before and after the song but the camera operator(s) seemed a little hmm... sleepy ? I loved how he played guitar and sang on ETIAW. That was so lovely and energetic.

He is the winner of this night. (Besides athletes of course)

Oh my God. Have You seen Will during the Paralympics? Wtf. He was... OUTSTANDING. What a fucking stud.

Yes, I wasn't sure. We don't have it in Poland : ( Oh my God. Hahaha this is so sad yet so hillarious. Poor Will, but I think I can see Guy comforting Him in the 4th picture :lol:

Haha this is brilliant. And wtf at guy. That reminds of the other picture where they were all playing this (because I have no idea what it is) game. It was as well astonishing.

He's the real Champion :heart:

Lol, just wanted to post that Tash. My friends are lovely: The text says: "He's running to you" :lol: Wow, this pic is very unordinary.

Well after all these years I can still write about Him and don't get bored : D But I'm starting to be lack of words. So this is the time for the one I didn't use. Will is magnificent. Btw. why did m avatar changed... by itself?

Oh God, great pics. He's always in shape.

Come on, let the thread live : D Post if you want to be Chris on that pic!

This is so beautiful. Great. I also planned on doing something. Maybe some art in photoshop or something but since He left me last week I don't even live at home. But that doesn't matter. I hope I'll think of something special today even if not I'll be sure to at least celebrate :) Thank You Will. Thank You for all you have done. Even though we never met you gave me inspiration, you gave me hope, you gave me talent and I'm very very grateful for that. I still hope that someday I will be able to thank You in person. I wish You another year of great concerts, best friends, lovely people and just doing what you want to do. Because you deserve all that. I really adore You as a person cause you're incredibly smart, kind, honest and friendly. Your friends are lucky people to know a "fucking legend" like You. All the best from all of us :) I imagine Will seeing this cake and then starting to sing Death Will Never Conquer :lol: Well this isn't Will's birthday cake but I couldn't resist

I THINK I MIGHT BE GAY FOR WILL CHAMPION. BUT I'M NOT SURE.

Lol, I think He would kill You : D Well I already shared it with my friends and I also noticed the pic on Polish Coldplay forum. I think that 19 September will be a harsh day for Will Champion and his ripped-off clothes XDDD WILL IS YUMMY. and... Will. You know, you're welcome to share more of You with us if You want :rolleyes:

THAT IS A ONE FUCKING GOOD IDEA
