ski-gal: On May 23 I went to my first major
concert and was blown away. When Coldplay walked onto stage at GM place
and started playing Politik my excitement was undesrcibable! I loved the
different video angles shot up onto the screens above the band and the
lights to Daylight. The band was so geuine and personnalbe on stage, it
felt like a small club. I was so impressed that the band seemed to make
an effort to relate to Canadians by talking about Avril Lavigne and American
idol and how they tried to reach out to the people with the nose bleed
seats at the back. Chris sang amazingly on Rush of Blood to the Head (my
new favorite song). After the concert my friends and I hung out at the
back and waited for Coldplay to come out. We got their autographs and
got to get in a few questions. What a night, it was the best money I ever
spent! I can't wait till they come back! Coldplay, I'm a fan for life!
Natalia003: Wow, what an amazing concert! I
had been looking forward to it for months and it totally exceeded my expectations.
I love coldplay. They are extremely talented and their live show kicked
my ass. I had a great time, hope everyone else did too who went.
tessa_cola: WOW what an awesome night!the band
wowed us with their talents, and in between (and sometimes during!) songs,
Chris would crack everyone up. one of the best comments of the night was
before singing "the scientist" chris joked "for all u in
the back of the arena there, in the other time zones, this song will reach
you in about 10 minutes, alright?"After the show at gate 9 we met
w/the lead singer of The Music and after about 3 hours a lot of rain finally
the boys of Coldplay came out and so graciously signed autographs, gave
hugs, shook hands and chit-chatted. all in all the show was incredible
and it had a sweet ending! i luv coldplay!!!
PS -- chris is even more gorgeous up close than in pictures/videos!!!!
Kimbloomfield: Coldplay lit up
GM place like no other act I've seen. The music was literally unreal,
it was a life experience just being there. For those who complained about
the performance being short; try to imagine jumping around like Chris
Martin did for an hour and 15. He gave 'er. My first live Coldplay experience,
but definately not my last. The best concert ever.
Kirsten: I left that concert in awe.... IT
WAS AMAZING!!!! Best concert ever!!! I can't shutup about Coldplay now!!!
I love them!! I got a shirt.
Can't wait until they come back!
Pipmsn: Although I swore that I would never
post, here I am - but it'll probably be the only time!
Vancouver was one of the funnest Coldplay shows I've attended. I was simply
dreading the hockey arena space, but I was 11th row and center. The sound
turned out good - much better than the Paramount in Seattle last September
(god that was awful). The only thing I did not like was the bright white
lights that hurt my eyes.
for pictures of the show.
I went into a moment of panic when Chris coughed after starting Amsterdam,
as that is the song I really wanted to hear, but it turned out well!
Now for comments on other threads:
The group bow at the end was totally endearing and I loved it - I cannot
understand how this would put some people off. Guy looked so shy and awkward
while they were all standing there at the end. I felt the bow was for
his benefit!! I also think it was Will who got everyone to come forward
- he was applauding the audience even before he left his drum set.
Did they do a group bow at any other show???????
and don't forget to pledge blind allegiance!
Wolverine is cool. Anything that hints of Bushism is not cool.
As far as meeting Chris: He's been gracious and nice both times I met
him - he even sat down with my daughter and I while we ate lunch. But
that was a year and a half ago - things have changed for them. Guy was
the MOST sweet and also sat down and chatted about record stores, college,
etc. but that was two years ago. I don't think they fit well with being
treated like an object - Chris handles it better than the others, but
it must get so tiresome - no matter how gracious one wants to be. They
give enough of themselves in their music, shows, and $ for good causes
- they cannot bleed themselves dry!
crazyclimber182: Oh god, the best concert ever!!!!!
I am soo jealous I didn't get to meet them tohugh!!! WAH! But yes, the
