COLDPLAY

Last night I went to my second Coldplay concert. I hit up the Viva la Vida tour in 2008 with my lovely sisters Cami and Emma. Viva la Vida is my absolute favorite Coldplay album. I'm obsessed with every song. I don't love Mylo Xyloto as much BUT the concert was incredible.

Here are the couple pictures I snapped on my phone. You can hardly tell what anything is except pretty color. I'm still in love.

The crowd before the band came on. Totally full. Slash our seats were really high up...

Katie, me, Lisa. We were SO excited. It was hard to remain calm.

Opening number. The confetti they had blown into the crowd was amazing.

Changes of color in the opening song to highlight different parts of the song. Awesome.

The stage from our view. We were so high up but the colors were so cool it was fine

They played in red lights whenever a Viva La Vida song was played.

Here are my top three the reasons why I loved the concert:
  1. They gave everyone in the audience light up wrist bands. These pulsed with the music when they played anything from the new album. Awesome.
  2. Black lights, neon, color symphony galore. It was beautiful.
  3. Chris Martin is hilarious. (He messed up while singing and apologized and made the band restart and it was kind of silly and endearing, even if he kept dropping the F-bomb, but a British accented F-bomb doesn't sound nearly offensive for some reason...)
BONUS Reason: They wore color coordinated jeans and t-shirts. Blacks, grays and muted pinky purple. The drummer wore purply pink jeans. And we had an excellent view of him rocking out. I kind of love the drummer a lot.
