17-Jul-08 - KROQ show at Jessica's house

[TallGuyCM]

So 1 lucky winner from a KROQ radio contest in Los Angeles got to have Coldplay perform at their house, which was last night (Thursday, July 17th) at a girl named Jessica's house in West Hills, CA.

Does anyone have any idea what their setlist was last night? I know it's a shot in the dark, just curious...

Check out www.kroq.com for pics from the show.

[brendan3eb]

[e!f]

[lovemejessy]

Ahhh that's like something that would happen in my dreams.. I actually did have a dream where the guys came and played at my school after I won a competition :P And then they gave me free tickets to go see them play again in like Norway or something lol! I love Guy's face in that one picture too he looks a little bit uncomfortable

[Cris_Santos]

"Contain your jealousy here" :laugh3: Perfect!

Lucky girl :cry: How I wish... how I wish you were here :cry2:

[yay_me]

I heard Jessica's interview on KROQ yesterday. Some of the stuff I actually remember from it:
* She had been stressed out for weeks since people she hadn't even talked to since high school were asking if they could come.
* Chris asked her if he can use her "loo" :laugh3:
* Her dad was piss drunk and was saying, "CHRISSSS!!" and Chris went up to him and said, "You're drunk, aren't you?" :lol:(don't quote me exactly)
* They played 6 songs and she got to pick all the songs. Can't remember most of them, but I remember, "Green Eyes" and "Yellow"
* Kevin or Bean (on KROQ) was going on about how great Coldplay is for doing this sorta thing...

.... That's all I remember. I won tickets from KROQ, too.. unfortunately I didn't win the grand prize (Them playing @ my house of course)...

[coldpatrix]

She lucky!
The entire setlist?

[Lore]

it's not like I'm jealous or something


:bigcry:

[designerbells]

When was this thing???

I was completely unaware of this competition.:(

she is lucky tho....

[Lore]

if I meet them again I'll ask them if they could play at my house :uhoh:

[designerbells]

nvm

i know how

-___-

[StephBerryman]

That's awesome...she got to pick the songs?

[Carlaatje]

I'll admit I'm sooooooooooo jealous! they need to have that contest in holland! I'll start emailing the radio stations... though I don't have a back yard, Oh well they'll just have to hold a super cool and unplugged acoustic set in my bedroom....

and six songs to pick? I would just freak out over making that descision alone....


good for her... no jealousy here, none at all :bigcry:

She got to pick the songs?! GREEN EYES?!

Guess I'll be joining the 'jealousy' party with the rest of you all. :cry:

[TallGuyCM]

Here's the songs I would pick if I could pick any 6:

1. Warning Sign
2. Sparks
3. Green Eyes
4. Trouble (since I didn't hear it on Tuesday :( )
5. The Scientist
6. Shiver

Not sure whether it'd be cool to force them to play Shiver since they apparently don't like playing it live or whatever, but it's such a fantastic song...

The Jonny and Chrissy love in the back yard! :bigcry:
Jonny in the khaki pants. :stunned:

http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/gallery/data/1595/coldplayhouse_7.jpg
Why can't things like this happen to me! :bigcry:

http://www.coldplaying.com/forum/gallery/data/1595/coldplayhouse_18.jpg
OK that girl is obviously reaching behind Will and have a bit of a Guy butt squeeze and Guy is kinda panicked because he thinks it's Will. :laugh3:

[busybeeburns]

:lol: :o

OK then: is that Jonny deserting Christopher and pinching William's love handle :P

[Jenjie]

Busybeeburns!! :angry: Don't you be encouraging Angie!! :rolleyes: She's perfectly capable of imaging things all by herself :laugh3:

[A RUSH OF VIDA]

Jessica needs to get her ass onto this board and spill the beans :lol:

thats hilarious ...but soooooooooo true :laugh3:

[busybeeburns]

Busybeeburns!! :angry: Don't you be encouraging Angie!! :rolleyes: She's perfectly capable of imaging things all by herself :laugh3:
I'm surprised nobody's mentioned pulling that sorry excuse for a scarf round Will's neck :P

[Jenjie]

I'm surprised nobody's mentioned pulling that sorry excuse for a scarf round Will's neck :P

there are plenty of things you could do with that scarf, and pulling on it is not one of them :P

[akasapple]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I've never seen coldplay's show before,
and she has sung "trouble" with them in his garden


no, I'm not jealous. :(

[Cold_Huntress]

:o Wow she's so lucky!! Why couldn't that be me? :cry:

[CRYSTAL]

i am not jealous because i'll see them at shows always when ever they tour US.

but she is indeed lucky to be honest.Because out of all people KROQ chose her's house and coldplay played there.

so yay for her!:)

[A RUSH OF VIDA]

i would never move out of that house.....

[Tonsu]

Am I the only one wondering if it's a bit too 'perfect' that the winner happens to be a really cute girl from an affluent area with a yard big enough to house a sound crew, stage, and hundreds of people...?

They would never do something like this in the UK.

[crazyduckette]

Sounds like an MTV 'sweet sixteen' party type thing to me!
UGHHHH.
disappointing to see them at something like this :\

I'm jealous though!! If they came to my house/garden to play, I would give them my own setlist and not allow them to leave until they had played it. mwahhahahaahaha :devil:

That picture is just begging for a caption contest. Chris and Guy both look like they just saw something very upsetting, but Johnny seems to think it's funny. What could it be...? :wink3:

None of us could top the quote Chris said at the event himself...to Jessica`s father:stunned:......" You`re drunk, aren`t you?"....:shocked2::lol::lol::lol:

[Texasluvsjonny]

:lol: :o

OK then: is that Jonny deserting Christopher and pinching William's love handle :PWill is trying to ignore the Jonny Chrissy love going on so Jonny is giving him a pinch to call his attention to hotness. You can't look away Will so stop trying! :sneaky:

[LiquidSky]

Jessica needs to get her ass onto this board and spill the beans :lol:

I know! She didn't even invite us! How cruel! I would have taken a flight for the second time and have actually met Jonny!!! :angry:

Neither, Hey it's great they did that for her!!!

Look at guy in this picture, he looks stunned or something

Guy looks really funny on this picture. I really wonder what he was looking at.

That's priceless man! I would have asked them to play

SEE YOU SOON!
LOW!

["*"*Claire*"*"]

That contest wasn't a good idea 'cause they made that girl happy but at the same time all the others fans in the world wish they colud have been at her place.. :cry:

[talkingonsquareone89]

Okay...maybe the jealousy-thing has gotten far enough....

It's incredible that the band had even agreed to be participating in this contest. This alone says a lot about them, and...well I have to admit that it was a GREAT promotion/marketing idea (or scheme, whichever you take it as).

But nonetheless, they'll be a few lucky ones that'll get to have the chance to do what everyone else can't. Please don't dwell so much on the fact that you weren't picked or gotten to be close enough in the first place, because they'll be other chances someday (maybe not the exact repeat of having Coldplay performing at your house, but something else...perhaps even better?).

Sorry, I mean my earlier post sounded bummed out too, but for the most part it was in jest.



(Apologies for the 'rant', but so far everyone's been sounding "bummed" around in the Coldplay Live section lately. :\))

So I had camped out for the Jay Leno show since Wednesday night at 11pm all the way until they filmed Jay Leno on Thursday at around 4:30pm.

After the show, I waited near the back to watch them exit. A security guard was very helpful in assisting me. He told me that they were doing some concert after and that they hadn't left yet and to look for four black cars. He then left because Jay left already. So I waited and waited and almost gave up. I thought ehhh, maybe he was lying. I was the only one there with my boyfriend. I was just about to give up as the four cars came rolling out! The windows were tinted pitch black and someone waved at me but I couldn't see who. My car was parked right there. I was hoping they would stop to say hi or do autographs or maybe pictures but they didn't :(

I got in my car and followed them! I lost them so many times on the freeway and etc...I was paranoid too, I thought I would get in trouble for following them but I didn't.

We ended up at that KROQ winner, Jessica's house in the West Hills!!!! At first, I didn't ealize it, I thought maybe they were visiting a friend or something so I didn't approach. I spent a lot of time just wandering around so I missed the majority of it. I finally approached and the security people were nice. They told me what they were doing and I waited. The neigbors let me into their house to let watch but by that time they were practically finished.

Then they came out...I ended up meeting Chris Martin! I got his autograph and a picture :) I told him how long I waited to see them at the Jay Leno show and he was like oh my gosh thank you so much...SOOOO sexy I tell you. What an experience. After that I was speechless :D

post the picture!!!!

[yay_me]

In order to qualify to win the grand prize"Coldplay gig at your house" that Jessica won, we had to win tickets, then they choose out of those winners who gets the grand prize. I was one of the ticket winners. It did cross my mind a couple times what I would have to do if I actually won. Trust me, it's a lot of stress :laugh3: I would have to clean up my house/backyard, warn the neighbors, stress about who I'd invite, beautify myself :wink3:,etc...... needless to say, I was ok w/ it when I wasn't the grand prize winner :laugh3:

For those who are jealous.. you should really think about it.. Would you be able to handle Coldplay at your house?? haha.. or would you be a bumbling idiot like I probably would've been If I won?? :lol:

Coldplay in a fan's back garden

Last week the band had a crazy day where they finished the Jay Leno show and headed off to play their first ever barbeque (in a fans back garden!). It sounded like a ridiculous idea, but we got there it turned out to be really rather wonderful.

Here's a little home movie of it.
