There's an extra concert a day after the first one in Rotterdam, probably because the first one was sold out in like 2 minutes.

I figured it needed its own thread. So...

Welcome to the thread for the above concert which can be used for all discussion prior to, during and after the gig.

One thread one concert - should hopefully keep everyone organised and up-to-date with Coldplay on the road.

Did you get tickets?
Are you looking for tickets?
Are you looking for ticket swaps?
Need help/directions on getting to the concert?
Not sure what the arrangements and rules are for the particular venue is?
Are you just bloody excited?
Do you have a review for the concert?
Did you take any pictures... share them here!

I just ordered mijn from seatwave, whatever the price.

Didn't take standing though, being the older one, I just hope the accoustic set will be my way...:)

Any idea where rang 2 vak da rij 19 might be ? couldnt find a plan of Ahoy.
Never been there (more used to Paradiso and Melkweg at 12,50 guilders :laugh3:

Hope to meet you before or something Carla en Stephan !

What a nice one in San Jose, hey, hope they'll be as happy to be Holland by then !

:heart:

Lauve
19-07-2008, 04:04 PM
Ok plattegrond gevonden, Ill be way at the back , but I dont mind ! :)

Carlaatje
20-07-2008, 07:31 PM
hey lauve you'll probably be really close to the acoustic set..!

you'll see me i'll be the first one there haha!

Lauve
20-07-2008, 10:31 PM
And I thought I would be nice and quiet in the back corner ! LOL

Why do I also believe the accoustic set will be on this side ?...( hopevolle zucht)

Let the stars shine for us girl

Tonsu

<edit>

Wow, I'd really love to see the guys in Holland (one of my favourite countries!)

Although I really can't afford it, if anyone has a spare standing ticket at a reasonable price at the last minute then please don't be shy - go on and tempt me!! :)

(But please only if no-one else needs a ticket, especially local people. I am lucky enough to see Coldplay many times this year, and I mustn't be greedy - I just post on the very smallest of chances :))

Lauve
22-07-2008, 02:51 PM
Please PM on this if anything becomes available,

I'd love to be able to get 1 or 2 tickets for some of my friends who cannot afford the prices on seatwave.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Carlaatje
23-07-2008, 06:41 AM
off course I'll keep an eye out for all of you!
but don't get your hopes up!

Lauve
23-07-2008, 04:42 PM
Thanks Carlaatje,

Hope we meet ahead of show anyway.

Carlaatje
23-07-2008, 04:55 PM
yeah that'd be great Lauve we'll PM about it when the time comes!

Lauve
23-07-2008, 05:32 PM
Afgesproken !

I see you live in Schiedam, that's real close to Rotterdam. Nice for Ahoy.
I have to catch a train to Krommenie afterwards. But if the show ends too late for the connection, I'll stay in A*dam at friends.

Anyway if you come to A*dam and want to meet up for a drink , PM anytime ! ;)

Carlaatje
24-07-2008, 04:52 PM
Deal lauve!
and I'll keep your offer in mind! though i'm not there that often!

Lauve
10-08-2008, 09:35 PM
Hoi Carlaatje,

I am just back from France, had a fantastic time.
Next fun thing on schedule.. guess what !? It is still some time ahead but I have to work on my outfit. which is also nice.
Have you got anything planned clothingwise for the concert ?

ps Most excellent picture of Mr Berryman running you got there !

Carlaatje
12-08-2008, 07:56 PM
Hey Lauve.. I almost missed your message!

did you have a good vacation?

clothing wise... I;'m in serious doubt... i'm thinking of a milion ways to draw attention to myself mostly in banners so I'm thinking my outfit should just basically be HOT... I'm thinking of buying a nice top and costumizing it myself I wanna credit coldplaying.com... I just don't know yet... I've been doing some costumizing before and I like to fool around in photoshop and stuff.. I guess I'll know when I find the right shirt and i'll just know exactly what to do with it.. if not i'll be wearing a friggin sexy dress :laugh3:

how bout you? are you costumizing or buying online
oh yeah I also have the option of wearing my brixton viva shirt damnn lots of options!

if you wanna come in for a chat about your vacation and stuff you should come in to the chavi and carla thread inthe lounge.. lots of space to be off topic there

tnx for the comment on my sig btw! that took a lot of time!

RadioMad
01-10-2008, 07:53 PM
Wow, can't believe the first Rotterdam gig's tomorrow already :o
I think I'll arrive at Ahoy around 14:00-ish.

I'll be seeing them three days in a row, twice in Rotterdam, and the third day in Antwerp, Belgium.
Probably gonna be sick of them by sunday :P

Nah, really REALLY looking forward to it.
It'll be the 6th, 7th and 8th time I'll be seeing them respectively.

Noémie
03-10-2008, 07:58 PM
Chavi? Really?
She told me a few weeks ago she wasn't going to another show (after the 4 shows she saw in France!!).
But it would be great for her!!!
:)

Jsalyers
03-10-2008, 08:05 PM
Ya thats so cool!!!

I dunno if she told anybody, it was kind of a last minute decision she made!!!

Noémie
03-10-2008, 08:10 PM
That is so cool!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great for her!
We'll get a bunch of pictures :)

Jenjie
03-10-2008, 08:12 PM
shes caught the Coldplay live bug!! :D

Noémie
03-10-2008, 08:17 PM
shes caught the Coldplay live bug!! :D

Yes, probably... And we all know how it feels! ;)

Jsalyers
03-10-2008, 08:20 PM
shes caught the Coldplay live bug!! :D
Hahaha ya literally. I think this going to be 6 gigs now!!!
And she was in the front row for all of them!!!!

Thats why im coming to Europe for the next tour so I can get those standing tickets!!!!

Jenjie
03-10-2008, 08:25 PM
Thats why im coming to Europe for the next tour so I can get those standing tickets!!!!

don't come to the uk then :)

Noémie
03-10-2008, 08:27 PM
Hahaha ya literally. I think this going to be 6 gigs now!!!
And she was in the front row for all of them!!!!

Thats why im coming to Europe for the next tour so I can get those standing tickets!!!!

6??? When and where is the 6th one??

Yes, you have to try the standing tickets, it's an amazing (and exhausting!) experience!!! It's so good to see them so close...(I'm missing this feeling now...:()

Noémie
03-10-2008, 08:31 PM
Oh really!! Do you not have standing tickets there??

Yes of course!!!
And they are less expensive!!!!!!!

That's why everbody is waiting at the front doors from 2pm, and sometimes 9 or 10am!!
And that's why there are people collapsing during the show, because they waited standing for 10 hours sometimes... And most of the time it's sooo hot inside you can't breathe...
Yeah, freaking experience...but it's so worth it!!!!

And it's such a shame there are no standing tickets in the UK...I'm wondering why... I will have to seat.... :(

Jsalyers
03-10-2008, 08:37 PM
Ya I though I she was going to the Rotterdam gig tonight. But maybe she is just going to Antwerp, hmm!!!

I know I really want to do it. Wow 10 hours!!! Damn, but Its so worth it though. That would be so exciting though!!!!

Noémie
03-10-2008, 08:40 PM
Oh really!! Do you not have standing tickets there??

Ooops sorry, I realise I understood "do you HAVE standing tickets"....
Well, I wanted to wait for Carla and Chavi tonight, but I think I'm already too tired as I can't read properly anymore... :D


And YES, it is exciting to be standing in front row!!! :)

Jsalyers
03-10-2008, 08:42 PM
Oh hahaha, no its ok!!!!

I’m surrounded by nurses in white coats!

Don’t worry. I’ve not been hurt (although I did take a tumble in Band v Crew football earlier..), and I have not gone mad after almost 5 weeks of touring and diminishing sleep levels.

The Oxfam Novib volunteers are busy hugging their way through the Coldplay crowd in the Rotterdam Ahoy arena. A few of them are having a coffee next to me, so I presume the tiredness means that it’s been going very well! Exhausted from hugging.. It must be a rare condition.

They have been a great group to work with. They look great, and really stand out in the crowd, which is generally a mist of Coldplay shirts and the occasional stitched replica jacket.. Hug a nurse, is about drawing attention to the need for quality healthcare worldwide. For that, we just want Coldplay fans voices.. And their hugs.

The ’hug a nurse’ campaign is ’FairAct #44’ for Oxfam Novib. FairActs are small, simple things that people can do to make the world a fairer, more equal and happier place. Other examples are to eat a FairTrade banana, be curious about the world around you, do something for nothing.. Wear ’clean’ clothes (which meet fair trade standards). You get the idea.

I just saw a volunteer nurse run across to the guy selling all those Coldplay shirts, with open arms and a big hug. It’s a really fun way to do a couple of our last shows here in Europe. Now I really am surrounded. The volunteers are coming back to the stall, to change clothes for the Coldplay show.. 10 minutes to kick off.

Speaking of kick-off..

Just a quick word on the football earlier. Band 6 - 1 Crew. I played for the band. Will Champion took home the match-ball. Maybe he’s Southampton F. C’s next star striker..



A big hug and a big thank you to Oxfam Novib, to Maarten and to all of your star hugging nurses! Over 1200 signatures and hugs tonight. Fantastic stuff.

Just got home, it was amazing. The crowd was more into it then last night, and the band picked up that energy. Right after In My Place Chris said: 'This is going to be a good one John!' And it was a good one.

Setlist:

Life In Technicolor

Politik and ROL! that's great

yeah it was a great (and unexpected) combination because I thought he would just improvise a bit. He dedicated the song to a guy named George (no idea who that is though..)

I loved the fact that Guy was taking pictures of the rest of the band, and the guys were also fooling around. For example, during the hardest part I looked at the A stage and I saw will sneaking up on John and scare him! It was so funny :D

Still no Glass of Water..wth

It really seems they're having a great time in this tour and they're probably enjoying the last shows of this leg even more :nice:

thanks for the setlist and for the first mini review :)

I was screaming for Glass Of Water, I think Chris heard it cause he looked up like 'how said that?' but no chance of playing it tonight unfortunately.. However, tomorrow there's another chance haha. My third Coldplay concert in 3 days, I love my life :P

Denise

now that i know the EP will be out as soon as november i'm not sure i want them to play glass of water live before i hear the studio version... i wouldn't mind it though i guess.

I'm back home! It was soo great!
Politik was great, and didn't expect ROL after it:O That was soo nice!

I was very late there, at seven o 'clock and was sooo close to the stage:o less then 5 meters! :D

Pics(not that good quality soon)

A little story about it:

We where there at seven, waiting one hour and then it started, first there was another band that sounded realy good too.
After that they removed their instruments and 15 minutes past nine it happend!
Coldplay entered the stage to play Life in Technicolor.
After it they played Violet Hill, his voice was realy good! And he let us end the song!
Clocks was great with those lasers, and in In My Place Chris was 2 meters before me.
Politik was my favorite and when it started, I knew it was the best day of my life..
The mistake in Death And All His Friends was funny and he started it over.
What a band! Fantastic!

What did you say to him?


arrgh very clever things Mimi of course like :


- you sing beautifully today, your cold is better ? answer with big smile : oh yes yes thank you

and - do you mind signing my t-shirt ? me opening coat and lifting jumper (it was sooo cold) ending up with a big smile (and in his arm, if you noticed) :D

I thanked him a couple of times too, but was not able to specify more :) and he also picked up something we let fall on the ground. He is so sweet , and soft, and warm. sigh.

I dont mind so much that the picture looks like Halloween came early, for me its Chris-mas :flutterby: :flutterby: :flutterby:

it was also my first Coldplay concert : I smiled a lot, cried a few, sang, danced, mostly sitting, except on VLV and Lost, although for Lost I was the only one standing in my area :laugh3: well I am glad somebody else posted the set list. I could not remember it right now. Loved COL, Strawberry Swing, Politik and Reign of Love so nice together, Scientist was well done, beautiful voice tonight there, the Hardest Part, so happy to see Chris with his piano in real, Yellow, 42, Fix You. Really appreciated the VLV trancy remix.
Pfew so good it is going to be hard not seeing them soon again.

It was played (!) but it was not on the paper setlist.

Oh and I can't figure out why my paper setlist says '(Talk Remix)' because it was the Viva La Vida Remix we all know...

Apart from this.. The setlist is 100% correct. Don't mention it ;)

looks like the girls have got to Antwerp safely :D

Antwerp, Belgium. the end of the European road..

Talking of roads, the buses and trucks are all literally parked beneath one, as this venue is right next to the motorway. We drove past it on the way from Milan to Rotterdam. It’s a big green building, feels like it’s seen a few sights over the years..

The crowds are already patiently waiting outside. Inflatable pillows for comfort and their backs against the glass doors, claiming thier spot at the front of the queue. That metal bar at the front of the stage must be the most sought after piece of steel in Europe at the moment! There are some familiar faces too. I met some Coldplaying.com fans last night, waiting outside to meet the band on their way out. They waited in the rain last night, and said they would see me here today too. So they did. Knocking on the glass doors at the front of the venue, with a friendly wave, as I set up the Oxfam booths. I am constantly impressed by the dedication of these fans. One of the best part of the days, is when the doors finally open, these wide open venues fill up and the buzz starts to build up.

We’ve almost reached the end of the road for now. 5 weeks out and time for a breather before heading back across the pond. It’s been an amazing trip. Thousands of people have joined the movement on various campaigns with Oxfam, to make the world a fairer place for us all to live. Oxfam France Agir-ici, Oxfam Deutchsland, Intermon Oxfam, Oxfam International, Ucodep and Oxfam in Italy, Oxfam Novib and now Oxfam-in-Belgium have worked together to make this an amazing tour. A massive thank you to all of our volunteers! Coldplay have really hit their stride. Enjoying each and every concert. The crowd reaction has been incredible.

It’s been emotional.

I had a seat a bit far for the concert and could only see their faces on the screens. Although the music got me shaking, and crying, and dancing. And to see them move in real. Chris's walk is so .. English. Lovely.

And then this miracle happened, thanks to Carla and Chavi for wanting to stay when the security told us everyone was gone. The german vans were there so, we waited. 2 hours. We got wet but not soaked as such. There was only the 3 of us at the players door. We got to talk to lovely Pete of Oxfam, and also to Reno bass player of Albert H. Jr.
Chris must have been working on this letter about the EP. He came out at 1:30 am. We were nearly frozen and then :flutterby: we melted.

^^ of course I'll frame it with the butterflies that the girls picked up for me :D

i am not so badly unhappy because i am still going to 3 more shows this year and if possible another one too in NY if i win tickets for Yahoo music live sets.Because i stay in New Jersey and i gave them all my address.

i already made some signs for 2 shows that i go too they will any how see them when all the people hold them up at the concerts that's not at all a problem for me becuase even though other people hold or not i'll do it.

And also i got Chris smile,look and waving for me already previously when i went to 2 shows.

But still i need to touch him like you and wanna speak with him for that i need to meet him.But still my husband touched him but still i've to.

But well i'll see but in any time in the future if i meet him i've really damn good plan and also i've prepared very much right now for that moment how i've to behave etc...

I had a seat a bit far for the concert and could only see their faces on the screens. Although the music got me shaking, and crying, and dancing. And to see them move in real. Chris's walk is so .. English. Lovely.

And then this miracle happened, thanks to Carla and Chavi for wanting to stay when the security told us everyone was gone. The german vans were there so, we waited. 2 hours. We got wet but not soaked as such. There was only the 3 of us at the players door. We got to talk to lovely Pete of Oxfam, and also to Reno bass player of Albert H. Jr.
Chris must have been working on this letter about the EP. He came out at 1:30 am. We were nearly frozen and then :flutterby: we melted.

^^ of course I'll frame it with the butterflies that the girls picked up for me :D
Awww that's great, never trust the people telling you they're gone when you see clues they're not :D

hopefully they won't rush away right after the concert tonight so Carla and Chavi can meet them all this time :cool:

^^ Yes Joe he did. Cant remember exactly but it was like :

Oh and you girls waited all this time in the cold !
an I : Yes we 're cold but but we are very happy

this while he was signing

Actually, his first reaction when he saw us was : oh no ! and immediately asked for a marquer pen, like he was moved someone could wait there like that.

Maybe, but I don't think so! He speaks French so well!
And you can see he doesn't tell sentences he learns by heart, because he improvises a lot...and still makes perfect sentences in French.

okay my review.. i'll post in pieces

Okay the review: here it goes
I arrived at the venue at about 14:30, My sister and brother in law held a space for me in the front of the line which was really nice of them… also tnx to all the people who let me in there! My sister had been preparing all these people saying I was actually their biggest fan but I just couldn’t make it!
Chavi arrived at 16:07 (was in my texts) I was all weeeeeeeeee first time I met her and I was just sooo happy My stalker soulmate!
Unfortunately some people from the Ahoy came in just before her and sort of closed the lines securing the front row people which was good for us… but not for Chavi, she had to stand a bit further away So I told her to run run run like hell and we’d keep a space for her up front
Lauren (Lauve) arrived quite soon after and we surprised her with the fact Chavi was there (she had a feeling but she wasn’t sure) Lauren had a seat and so she was able to stand with Chavi so she wouldn’t be alone.. although I think chavi made a dutch friend in line who was very supportive…
18.30 doors opening awfull security woman held me and my sister up for too long! Made us show our camera’s while other people from behind us were going through!.. but it was okay when we got in… Tim was up at the fence and held a spot for me! My sister was okay standing behind us.
I turned as soon as I got in and tried to climb a bit up the fence waving and yelling CHAVIIIIIIIIIIIIII
At first there was a woman between us and we asked if she could let her trough cause we were together, but she was saying how she should have been there earlier… after a couple of minutes though she realized we really were together and she let Chavi through a bit and she was able to stand right behind me. (so thanks for that!)
I brought some blue and red balloons and Chavi and I decided to blow them up… and write things on it with marquer.. I think we annoyed some people.. so sorry for that but we wrote coldplaying.com and people read it soo that was good! Also wrote: thump a bass, hump the bass player… and Phil is hot! We threw most of them into the venue but kept those I wrote in our hands for the show…
20:30 right on time Albert Hammond JR.. I never heard anything before but I liked it! The bass player was really enthusiastic and encouraged us to clap along.. chavi and I did and he looked at us in approvement… we figured he’s the bass player and tried to throw the balloon with the humping on stage… it made it but only stayed there for a sec (you’ll think who cares.. but it’s important later!)

@ carlaatje: you must have been the luckiest person in the world last friday! :)

I have a request: I collect all my tickets of all concerts I go to. I really have a nice collection now. I have them on the walls of my toilet, all sealed. The Coldplay-ticket I got, I bought from someone else, because due to circumstances I wasn't able to get one myself, but this ticket was sent bij email, so I only have a piece of paper as a "ticket" and not really a "real" ticket. Is there anybody here who doesn't do anyhting with his ticket of 02-10-08 and would like to give it to me? You would make me very happy!

part 2 of the review....

Albert left and we were waiting again… couldn’t wait for Jay-z to start!!! And then he did… chavi and I were going nuts but most people didn’t understand it would start right after!!!

LIT: it might be my favorite song from the album (can’t wait to get the EP)
They were starting together again and laughing.. Chris teased jonny a little whheeee
Violet Hill It’s really great live… love to hear everybody scream IF YOU LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVVVEEE MEE!

Clocks: I love this song and I really want crazy…
In my place… Time for some ramp of love action!!! Videos should be great cause my sister filmed, so did chavi and I did we all got some different views I think! It was all cuteness when chris bowed to let jonny on his ramp.. Plus the song is amazinggg YEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH
Speed of sound: my boyfriend loves this song so I called him during I have to say I miss Guy’s piano playing in it!  but you know what can you do? Still a great song
In between the camera guy in front of us asked us to hold up the Chavi’s sign and we were on the big screen wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Cemetries of London: the moment I;ve been waiting for: I hadn’t seen any of the videos (yes that was hard) and I really loved the live version.. people sang along good and off course I enjoyed Guy at the piano!
Chinese sleep chant… so great live coz chris dances funny and Guy rocks his ass off! Weeee!
42 Chris fucked up the end a bit and did the last part acoustic at the piano again.. VERY GOOD!
Fix you!! Yeahhhh I only filmed the beginning coz I needed to jump around during this song! Amazing amazing amazing amazing!
Strawberry swing I had forgotten this was back on the setlist and so I was a little surprised and VERY happy about it… also I can’t believe how long Guy holds up his hand and clapss theman must have MUSCLE
Time for B-stage… I couldn’t see that much but it was okay.. I never heard the talk remix before I LOVED it!
The hardest part… I’ve always loved this song, and while Chris sang his bit I turned around and watched guy He came over to jonny and sat down together.. I think they saw chavi and me taking pics of them…
Post cards from far away… such lovely background music to drool over Guy…
Viva la vida: dance dance dance sing sing sing!
Lost: yeahhh Chris goofy dancing.. and Guy playing drums. What more could a person want?
The scientist/death will never conquer: sing a long!! I love it chavi and I turned around and pointed at the area we knew they’d be (someone told us) nobody got it at first but then were amazed when we were right!) I loveeeee will singing and chis says the sweetest things about him!
Viva remix (why does it say talk on the setlist?) tried to do the cell phone thing… let’s just say dutch people are boring…. No ooohing either!!!
Politik…. Jump jump jump jump! Great live
Lovers in japan… time for butterflies!!! Weeeeeee just wanted to enjoy this but I couldn resist taping some of it best song on the album I think and I love it even better live
Death and all his friends: ohhnooo! Almost the end! haven’t heard it live yet so great!!!! Jonny still can’t do his singing part.. it’s cute 
The first goodbye! Jonny came to our side and I think he read chavi’s sign which I was holding up he threw some guitar picks and Tim almost caught one.. but it bounced out of his hand again… it laned on his shoulder and the guy behind him stole it!! Grrrrrr
Also… bowing is HOTTT :D
Yellowww: weeee thanked us in dutch again verrry cute! Then he madeus sad by saying they probably wouldn’t play in Holland again for at least a year maybe even two… :bigcry:
Then Chris made a big jump and Guy was laughing at him the cutenesssss!!!
Oh no the escapist… goodbye again… I yelled so hard for jonny to throw more picks(sorry about that)… and he did!!! Just not at us… to the guys next to us (coldplayer?)
But then it was all okay when will threw his stick!!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
The camera man came straight to me and chavi and gave us his setlist… then I was busy taking a pick of my sis and tim, when chavi got Jonny’s setlist!!! Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee again!

Now it’s time to get outside… to be continued… muhahahahaha

part 3:
We couldn’t get outside fast enough… I wanted to get a tourbook but the line was too big… so chavi and I decided to stalk immediately but I ran into my boss… and then my collegue who were asking about us and my boss saw me on the screen she told me she’d buy my Antwerp tickets from me she wanted to go again so badly!! Cutteee! But then we were like.. we should goo stallkkkkkkk!! Were outta here! My sister and tim came along with us and we met Lauren again at a spot we agreed to before the show… the tourbusses were right around the corner and easy accesable…
I remembered from a R#42 blog that they were driving around in vans with german plates, and I saw I van lke the one I saw at brixton.. so while everybody hung back I went to check the plates.. and they were…. GERMANN weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I went to get Chavi and the rest and I was like we stay near this door and were not leaving until these vans are gone!!! Period! I had my marker and rush of blood to the head cd booklet ready! So now we wait… we saw the afro woman.. ( I think she’s Kelly chief of security that R#42 mentioned before?)
And I told everybody that she was there at brixton when Guy and jonny came out and now I was sure at least somebody was inside! Weeeee!
A lot of people passed us by, also someone with an Oxfam jacket and Chavi said:
‘Tnx for your blogs!’ he turned around and said: ‘what?’ and then I recognized him and it clicked I said:’ you’re Pete right?’
He was in utter surpise and was like.. uhmm yeah how do you know?!?!
So I said you’re famous too! We always read your blogs they’re really great, he seemed so flattered he had some fans! And he came over to us and we chatted for quite some time! He told us a lot of thing, first we asked if he got a lot of signatures and he was very pleased and talked about that.. than we asked about touring with the band.. some security passed us by saying we should leave cause the band had left with a police escort! First I said: don’t lie man I see the van I know someone is back there but he insisted and then I said well doesn’t matter cause were talking to Pete right now!
Then of course we had to ask if he knew anybody wass till inside… he said he wasn’t sure… and I just blurted out: could you check… so rude.. but I took it back immediately! We told him we’d be going to Antwerp tomorrow and he said well then I’ll probably see you there! Then he went to get a shower and left us again..
Some guys from albert’s band came out and we recognized the bassplayer! Chavi told him we were clapping for him and he was like owwh yeah I remember then I told him we’d thrown a balloon on stage for him especially and he said ooh no I missed it! (we didn’t tell him what it said though) and we’d be at the Antwerp show as well, he was really impressed and asked us to bring balloons again so he could find us and hook us up with a guitar pick or a drumstick or something! Soo sweet!
We then asked to take his picture and I said: we don’t even know your name! he said: call me what ever you like…. So chavi.. quick as she was said: Okay Judy! :lol: he then went back in.. and my sister and tim left cause they were tired and it was cold… it also started to rain… Tim gave us a piece of plastic before he left and his cd booklet.. just in case..! we stood under the piece of plastic and waited…. Another security guard kept opening the door and looking at us… by the 3rd time I was like: yeah we’re stil here… were die hard were not going anywhere! He then started talking to us asking us where we were from and he turned out to be dutch so I spoke to him for a little while, and asked him if we were waiting for no reason, he said oh the rest have left, but HE is still inside… what d o you mean he? Chris??!?!?!?!
Also one of the vans left with miller and some woman.. we said hi to miller and thanked him for the blog and the spreadin the love sign… but I guess he was a bit rushed.. Kelli (?) told the driver he needed to come back again for someone else (chris maybe)
He said: yeah I’m pretty sure I’ll go check if you want… uhmmm YEAHHHHH
He came back and confirmed! Weeeeeeeee chris still there! We were meeting chris!!
In the mean time the bassist from alberts band came back and brought us 2 setlists and signed them, said his name was Reno.. he ffelt sorry cause he didn’t have anything for lauren, went back inside and got a tour schedule (VERY HELPFUL L BTW) and so sweet of him to do that!
The van that had gone came back… and so we wait
Then Pete came back out and I said hey pete: are you nice and clean ?(don’t start.. I know…)
And he said Oh your still here! we chatted some more (did I mention how nice he was?) And then the van pulled up to the door… a lotta things happened quickly and pete said: I ‘ll leave you alone cause someone who might still be inside is coming out now and I don’t want to ruin your chance… CUTEEEE! We said bye and then the door opened….

chavi said Bye and she said bye back and seemed a bit surprised… we thank her for all she does while she got in the van… they drove off, and I realized there was another van waiting…
Kelli was outside and somebody was going in and she said: just don’t go in there cause He’s gonna take a shower and something about ten minutes…
What??!?! He ??!?!? shower?!?!?! 10 minutes!!!:stunned:
So I just plain asked: did you say 10 minutes and she said: oohh no I’m just full of it… yeah…
About 10 minutes later… the driver came out again.. pulled the van up and showtime!!!
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE E
Camera;s ready… caps of marquers… on your places get set GO!
I saw Chris inside.. wearing his BARACK shirt and I noticed Lauren was gone.. she didn’t realize it would happen NOW so I yelled LAUREN GET YOU BUTT OVER HERE! He’s coming out NOW
He came out and his face was all surprise and flatter, there’s still people here? He probably said multiple times.. aww you waited so long in the cold! And rain He signed my rush of blood to the head booklet first, and asked me for my name: It’s Carla, and he said that’s with a C right? Yeah that’s right
then I asked: I don’t mean to be rude but could you sign this one for Tim? Which he did! And said: oh no it’s okay! We told him the gig was awesome! And I said I loved his shirt about a gazillion times! Lauren asked about his cold and he thanked her and said it was much better he signed her T-shirt, and someone dropped the cap of the marker.. Chris picked it up for us… such a gentleman!! I was like leave it it’s just the cap! Think he handed it back to Lauren (right?) He also signed Chavi’s banner and made a little face!
We asked to take pictures, and Chavi said her battery was dead so I said it’s okay my camera is still working so I gave it to her and she took a pic of me, mine and chris’ face are probably weird cause I think we were talking about Barack and how he should win, and that we got all excited about the shirt when we saw it on the Lyon blog
I took a pic of chavi and the it turned out my battery was about empty as well so I quickly took a pic of him and Lauren and he was getting to the van
We told him we’d come to Antwerp tomorrow and he said I’ll look for you or see you then not sure… either way COOOL
I told him to say HI to the others from us and he said he would, and I also told him to tell Guy he owed me a signed brixton T-shirt and he said: Yeah I know… (he doesn’t but okay)
And that was it.. he got in and they drove off, we waved and lauren said Chris was knocking on the window letting us know he saw us cause the windows were black although I didn’t hear that I thought it was the cutes thing EVER we stayed calm until that moment! We were all WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEE
I could hardly believe I had been that calm I saw the security guy that got us info and knocked n the window showing the signatures and blowing him a kiss… (yeah maybe that was too much)
He came outside again and asked us to go for drinks… but we were so tired, and we needed to take lauren to the station soo we jumped around the parking lot screaming and dancing to my car! Weeeeee! Chris martin Nicest sweetest cutes man EEVERRR
So far Our firt night… chavi and I were in bed by 3ish… :uhoh:

I was 3 steps behind you trying to move to keep away the cold Carla sweet, no way I was gonna walk away knowing he would come out any minute. :D I keep reliving it with added bits of what I'd have like to say. I just hope the thank yous carried more than words.
Thanks for writing the review 'cause I have a fever and a cough and a little dizzy, well worth it though :flutterby:
