Here I am again. I now want to discuss the most awesome concert I have ever been to: The concert by one of THE most amazing bands in the world: Coldplay! They had a concert in The Netherlands on 09-09-09, and I know that that is a long time ago and that I should have posted about it long ago, but better late than never, so here is my story.
Directly after school, my father and I drove to Nijmegen. The concert's terrain (it was outdoors) opened at 15:00, and we entered it at 17:15. It was notably calm still, and most people were just sitting on the ground. We, my father and I, managed to work our way forward up untill the front boundary of our section. This was the closes we could poissibly get to the stage, and I thought it was a beautiful place: right in the middle, and with a great overview of the entire stage.
After one horrible (Bat for Lashes) and one moderate but funny (The Flaming Lips) preprogramm, Coldplay started at exactly 21:00 as they should.
They came on with firework in their hands, and started playing Life In Technicolor. This set the mood for the entire evening: it was one huge party. All their hits came by, and the crowd went wild. Everybody, young or old, sang along with every song. All of Coldplay's hits and recent songs came by, and especially Viva La Vida was a blast, with the entire crowd of 60.000 people chanting the chorus part for five minutes after the song was over. There also was a lot of humor, and a small awesome tribute to Michael Jackson: They performed an acoustic version of Billie Jean
Overall the entire concert was great. I loved every minute of it, and when it was over I wanted it again. I just LOVE Coldplay.
P.S. Below are some pictures and a video I made at the concert.
