Coldplay concert

A week ago we went to our second Coldplay concert. The last time they were in town performing I was 3 months prego. The concert was the most amazing one I had ever gone to (no, I haven't been to U2, and I know they had a rockin' concert as well). So we coughed up twice as much for the tickets this time around to go with friends on a Tuesday night.

Shane, Kaki, Derek, & I were walking to the concert from the parking area. Stephen & Jenise decided to have a bicycle take them in for a quicker trip. The irony is that those of us walking in and getting our exercise beat the bicycler since he had to go one way down certain streets.

About 9pm and after two openers, Derek and I were both yawning. We were laughing that we were getting too old for this (staying out late on a "school" night). Here is a photo of the sleepy couple.

But then the lights went out, and I never sat back down. The concert didn't disappoint and I knew every song. Here's Chris Martin on one of the 3 HD screens that we got to watch.

The group played in 3 locations at the concert. One of which was one section over from us. They were awesome. Such a talented band - at one point all 4 of them were playing two instruments at once. We had to split our group of 8 into 2 sections of tickets. Let's just say we were pleased with our location when Coldplay came our way.

Another photo of them playing right by us.

At the end they had confetti come down during Viva la Vida, their "Apple song", as I call it.

When we arrived home a little before midnight, yawns failing to escape from our mouths, we still had big grins from the concert. We've all caught up on our sleep, and it was a fantastic show!
