OT - Coldplay concert

[CaptainDangerfield]

Anyone see the Coldplay concert last night? I was quite amazed with how good it was. I was expecting it to be quite mellow, if not abit boring. I was wrong.

If you didn't go, and you're a Coldplay fan, you missed out on a stunning show.

I was there springy and I have to say what a great concert it was. Visually stunning and great music. Considering they had no sound check prior to the concert they are not bad

We were up the back near where Chris Martin decided to come and visit at the end of the concert. Loved seeing the security guys sprinting with him!

My sister went back stage and met Chris Martin on Sunday at the Melbourne concert!!

I went to the Monday night concert in Melbourne was fantastic, I thought the same as your springy but came away very very impressed

Chris Martin is a real showman, lighting and effects were excellent, well worth the $$$

I was going but at the last minute decided instead to stay home and saw my leg off. It was less painful.

I think that was an attempt to bag Coldplay, fine effort.

Idiot.

Anyway, you’ve got to love Coldplay, one of the best bands in the world.

Says who? Bland doesn't begin to describe this band.

 

[Gets!]

I went and it was bloody awesome.

Coldplay are simply unreal and I still can't believe I have seen them in person.

It's entertainment, I like it, you don't.

Why bash it?

 

[Adam BK]

Yeh I went, had a really great time.

What did people think of Youth Group?? I thought they were very good Im a fan of their hit 'Forever Young'

 

[-CG-]

One of my friends went last night, she didnt have a ticket but managed to get in for free. She really enjoyed it

 

[Gets!]

Youth Group were pretty good.

Sarah win a prize Amy????

Nah one of Sarah's friends was dating an old manager of coldplay and she is really good friends with Chris Martin!! So through connections she got to meet him!!

Who is Cold play? Are they the group who sing “Yellow”?

I don’t like contemporary music groups so I don’t follow bands all that closely?

You're not for real?

Probably in the top 3 biggest bands over the last 5 years.

Sorry to disappoint but I am being extremely serious.

Last CD I bought would have been 10 year ago when I was about 15, and it would have been Nirvana or Sound garden.

Closes thing to music I like now would be the Dashboard Confessionals, so I am sorry if my music intelligence doesn’t meet your standard but I have no idea who cold play is. (Only that Chris Martin is married to the movie chic)

Thats where I was NikkiNoo Door 20 Aisle 20b.

It was everything Id hoped for.
I had the playlist and apart from the Johnny Cash rendition it went pretty much to plan
Brought the rusty long sleeve top, lined up for 20 minutes to get it; not to mention the 20 min wait ouitside to get into the AEC.

It was my first time at the Centre and the view was great.
Didnt think much of Youth Works though - they sounded like the Waterboys (for those that know them)

The pizda resistance was FIX YOU

I thought the yellow balloons were a good touch and the lighting and backscreen were brilliant.

I got back from Adelaide this morning flashed up the Twisted Logic playlist and indulged once more...

Without trying to be picky - the stadium seating could do with an overhaul - the decor looks very tired.

But the concert was speccccial!!

 

[just maybe]

Average to be honest.

They have potential but they seem to lack a hook in any of their songs, nothing to draw you in or remain in your memory (except Forever Young, which is obviously a cover!).

Good musicians, boring songs.

Too be honest, I went thinking it was going to be okay but nothing special. I'm a big fan of their music but I didn't think they would come across well live. How wrong was I. After the first song I thought that it was going to be a good show. However, after they played their second song, Politik, I was blown away.

You never listen to the radio in the car or anything?

Out of interest, what music are you into.

He's got the Stephen Hawkin Latin translation of the "Universe and Me". Apparently its a good "parking" cd.
