"That was totally WICKED!"
Holy. Crap.
If you see tickets for Coldplay and they're less than $100, GO FOR IT. Seriously. This is not a joke. They're totally worth seeing for whatever amount you can get the tickets for. They're good performers, good musicians, and FANTASTIC people. I can't even begin to say how amazing my experience at that concert was. Granted, the opening band (the one I saw, at least) was about the weirdest, trippiest Alice-in-Wonderland experience I've ever had, but Coldplay more than made up for that guy.
Here we are with one of our tickets:
And here's our good friend Christopher Martin on the big screen. *heart!*
(Thanks to Emily's sister Alie for the previous two photos!)
The line up for the evening:
Blue Danube Waltz (and as soon as that ended, the lights fell and everyone in the crowd screamed their heads off).
Life in Technicolor
Violet Hill
Clocks
In My Place
Speed of Sound
Cemeteries of London
42
FIX YOU
Strawberry Swing
God Put a Smile Upon Your Face
The Hardest Part
Viva La Vida
Lost!
The Scientist
Death Will Never Conquer
Viva Mash-up Interlude
Politik
Lovers in Japan
Death and All His Friends
Encore: Yellow
Life in Technicolor (as going away music)
Clark is never too tired to make this face. Or the Look (which, thankfully, he didn't use on me all night long. Huzzah!)
We're really tired and really lost but we still have a smile on our face!
I will definitely write more later (like, when I'm not at work) but I just can't get over how much fun that concert was and how much I truly love good music!

Music is a happy thing!
Music is so very, very happy-making (if I may borrow the phrase-o-logy from Scott Westerfeld). Especially when it's a long day at work and I am bored out of my mind (hence my awesome hyper-link madness).
I especially enjoy when I hear a song for the first time and think to myself "wow, that song is amazing! I wonder who sings it?" and later find out that it's totally someone I know and love already!
Speaking of music, I'm so excited for the concert this Saturday! I will get to see one of my favorite bands (which I've been able to do before on more than one occasion) and I'll get to see them with two of my favorite people.
I. Can't. Wait!
