Random Coldplay thoughts...
Thanks! After having a wonderful weekend at Foro Sol and all the amazing things I have had in my life I've decided that all that matters is how happy I feel right now. Amazing Day describes how I'm feeling at the moment and I just want to keep the wonderful moments in my life. And as Chris said, there are difficult things going on but there are even more amazing things happening that I'll treasure :)

The video about the boy in Mexico City crying with his father during the performance of Fix You was part of today's news in a local TV program. It's in Spanish of course but I couldn't help paying attention to the time it was announced :) [MEDIA=twitter]723703205994094593[/MEDIA] Mobile Link: https://twitter.com/MundoColdplay42/status/723703205994094593?s=09

Thanks :) . And I'm not disappointed at all, I was waiting for that specific moment though. Perhaps they weren't activated because we received them separated to the rest. Whatever the reason it was it gave me a good excuse to keep my Xyloband haha

Yes! They worked perfectly the second day and it was an amazing moment. So, whatever happened to our xylobands I don't feel disappointed I received them before the rest of the audience and the show was spectacular :)

That's what we wanted to know! Each time we saw the xylobands were shining we looked at ours and they were turn off. I think one out of 10 worked. That's why I decided to keep it. We were asked to give them back to recycle them but as it didn't work I didn't feel guilty about keeping it as a souvenir.

It seems the band was seeing crossing the stage riding bicycles before the concert [MEDIA=twitter]722526507856371712[/MEDIA] Mobile Link: https://twitter.com/Coldplay_Mty/status/722526507856371712?s=09

This is interesting.
I'm not sure what to think about it. All I know is fans don't pay attention to it because all you want to do is enjoy the show. The energy you get in a live concert is indescribable and you forget anything that happens around you because you are so involved in the show which is thanks to the band and the audience. Fans singing along makes you sing louder what doesn't allow you to hear what they are playing in the sense that if they make a mistake you hardly notice it unless Chris points it out. I've heard some recordings and I've noticed Chris doesn't have a good voice in some songs, but during the show I didn't hear it. If they do lip sync I don't care because it doesn't interfere in the energy they transmitted to the audience.

Fix You, Up&Up or Amsterdam?
I just have been to a concert in one era so I can't say which is best. However, the message that Up&Up has it's so powerful, I love the ending and how togetherness is seen with the xylobands glowing while the band are playing the last notes. This song leave you with a huge smile on your face and the sense that it doesn't matter what everything will be all right. I wish I was able to hear Fix You and ETIAW during their respective eras. Both have a powerful sound that sums up what they wanted to share during their concerts at that time. Now, they represent what Coldplay were, are and will be.

I was looking at the Facebook page of the British Council in Mexico asking followers why they like the UK and they shared this gif and of course I like it because of music

I'm sorry I didn't answer this before. I was very excited to see Coldplay for the very first time and almost for free. I said almost because I was a volunteer which was very tiring. I signed up when I received an invitation to be part of it; I signed up to Global Citizen and since then I get email notifications for signing different campaigns and being a volunteer in a Coldplay concert was one of them. I filled out a form were they asked why you wanted to be a volunteer to talk about gender equality and the campaign #Levelthelaw and I think they liked my answers because they called me to make an interview through Skype. I thought I wasn't chosen because I was very nervous and most of the times I was just answering "yes" lol. But a week before the concert I got an email saying I was accepted to be part of the team of volunteers. I was so happy because that meant I was seeing the band in two of the three concerts they were giving in Mexico City! So, the day arrived and we met in one of the gates. There were fans from different parts of the country from North to south and the center. We were told our job was to collect as many signs as possible and that we were talking to the fans queuing about gender equality around the world. It was very tiring that's why it wasn't free at all as the weather was too hot (now my arms are a little bit darker) but at the same time it was very exciting. Some fans even believed we were part of the Coldplay team and that we were going to the M&G later. That was really funny we were kind of famous and like very important people. There were two gates, so when we moved to the other one we had to crossed from one part of the venue and ww were able to see the stage before the rest of fans. That was the moment when I took a photo of the stage, but someone shouted "you're not allowed to take photos", it was too late :D We gather together 15 minutes before the gates were opened. We received the Xylobands (which didn't work during the concert :( ) and we enter the venue before everyone else :) we took some photos which hopefully you'll see on Global Citizen's twitter. And before we chose in which area we wanted to see the concert we saw how the first group of fans enter running as fast as they could. It was really an amazing day!

A recording of Birds from this concert. I think I was near that area and the quality of the sound is really good

It was so emotional, I had some tears in my eyes. I'm glad his dad decided to share it, because that's how must of us feel when we see Coldplay playing live :') Ps. It was in the April 16 concert in Mexico City

I've changed an important part of my profile: now the number of times I've seen Coldplay is 2! I still can't believe I saw them twice during the AHFODtour. It was one of the most amazing weekends of my life :)

[Survey] Very interesting survey on all Coldplay tours
Great! But, I think it'll change when they'll perform at Wembley Stadium as they have 4 dates there.

Coldplay World Tour 2016 - 2017 Discussion
I have this feeling too, and that makes me too sad. I think they'll take a very long hiatus before they start to record a new album. I don't want to think they'll split up that'd really break my heart. I enjoyed so much their concert and the energy they transmitted was unbelievable that I don't want that to be over. :(
