My seat was pretty much directly behind the stage and all the way at the top. It wasn't terrible, but it also wasn't great. The screen blocked most of the stage but I could still see the band really well when they moved around. I bet if you were closer to the floor then the view is probably better. Just my opinion. I still had a great time!
Music Midtown was my first Coldplay concert as well! I feel spoiled because my friends and I were on the front row. I probably won't ever be that close again. But I'm still really excited to see them next week!
