Amazing right?

Snow Patrol was also great!

Yellow was probably my fav song of the night. Oh and the cell phone wave, freaking sweeet! hahaha

Anyone know the name of the electronica remix of viva la vida that was playing after they went back to stage!?

Love the show. The place was HOT though.
Wish I had my camera instead of the Blackberry.

That didn't make much sense. Was that an attempt at an insult because I drive a 240sx? Or did you just feel like saying the car name in the form of a question?

i think he was referring to the movie 40 year old virgin .. theres a part in the movie where they were like

guy 1: " you know how i know your gay "
guy 2: " how?"
guy 1: " you listen to cold play"

LOL i laughed pretty hard when i saw that part in the movies

Hahah Yes, that is the part I was referring to, but I don't see how asking a question: "You wanna know how I know you're gay" is replied with "240sx?" "Maple Leafs?"

Would have made more sense if he had replied "Because you drive a 240sx" or "because you like the Maple Leafs"

I would have lol'd either way if he had said it properly.

The following answers would have also sufficed.

"Because you have a rainbow bumper sticker that says I like it when mens balls are in my face"

"Because you macramade yourself a pair of jean shorts"

"Because I saw you make a spinach dip in a loaf of sour dough bread"

"Because you're gay and you can tell when other people are gay"

"Because you like the movie maid in manhattan"

Did anyone else think they were starting their set off with "Kids" by MGMT?

Coldplay seems to have a knack for coming up with familiar riffs.


Edit: Here is the actual song they played. It gets really familiar around 0:45

They started the show with the hidden track that's on the new CD. I think it's called the escapist.

Before they started that song, I believe, they had a 20-30 second intro instrumental where they played the song I mentioned.

That concert was unreal, probably the best I have ever been to. Snow Patrol wasn't too bad either!

I wish they played a little more old stuff, but its good that all 4 CD's are 90% great. They have so many phenomenal B-Sides too.

The total icing on the cake was the free CD with some live tracks on it. Awesome.

The sattledome was so fucking hot though! wow

yeah it was definately hot. I reallly want that house remix of viva la vida though!

The guy dancing was great to! Wasn't half bad either. Would have been more embarassing if he sucked ass lol.

Was so nice that they went to the back to sing for a couple songs.

I saw them at the Gorge this weekend. Now that was unreal! By far the best concert I've ever been to!

The venue from the back (not where I was)...

And from where I was when they came onto the side stage 30 feet from me, and played Billy Jean!...

I saw them in Winnipeg... had row 15 seats... only a couple rows from the stage on the sides.

I've been wanting to see them for years, but never pulled the trigger. It was one of my top 5 concerts of all time.

My only grievance is that I wish they would have played more songs from their parachute album, that's the stuff that got me into coldplay, not that their new stuff isn't good either... but I like the old stuff better.
