Palace of Auburn Hills. :D

[mandymcnabb]

My friend Garrett and I arrived at the Palace, and went in to find out seats,
When we found them, we were a little bummed out, because it was side stage, But we later realized they werent so bad at all. To me anyway.

Fionna Apple came on stage, and I was excited to hear her live, but then she started playing, and it was obvious that she hates opening, She would be better for smaller stages, but however, she was not very good. She swayed back and forth like a druggie, and wore a flowered moomoo

So about a half an hour or so later, Coldplays instrument men( ) came on and started setting up, I was getting pumped. But nothing compared to when they came out.

So a little while later, The lights dimed, and I started screaming, and going nutty, they still didnt come out, Felt like hours, but the lights go out, and the Palace loudens up, I screammmmm and go completly bananas, Coldplay takes the stage, I and like 2 other people in my section stand up..(which kinda made me mad, but I still had a good time) and I am dancing, blah blah blah, Coldplay sounded completey amazing, perfect, just perfect, lol, and still no one is staning up, so Politik begins, my fave, and that too is amazing. So Coldplay kept playing and finally everyyyone stands up for SOS, as if the other songs didnt measure up, but then it seemed like everything really started..
I dont know the exact playlist, but I do know there were to much singles, and no A Message.

I only took a few pics cos my camera sucks,
Heres the audience ..
Heres balloons during Yellow, which looked stunning,
Here the band, I cant find Chris though.. lol
Heres when the dumbass floor people threw the balloons on stage instead of popping them.. , Chris started popping them with the guitar.

Thats pretty much all the good pics, but there wasnt too much CJ luv
But they did lie down for White Shadows which made me go bonkers.
They all played beautifully, and I have never seen arms move as fast as Wills, I never really realized how talented he is.
I was amazed.
And Guy kept drinking on stage of course.

Which gave Garrett and I a good laugh..
Chris was making jokes about his hair,
Saying he looked like a BeeGee.. And said he was going to Birmingham to get a haircut.
I was about to go hunt him down.

But it was an amazing show, Garrett was just as impressed as I was, and the only thing I can really complain about is the lack of respect the floor people showed Coldplay.
Standing there not even swaying.

I forgot to mention..
Chris should be a track star, the ones that jump, hes like a cheeta, praying on its food.

Pooooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuunccccccccccccceeeeeee eeeeeeeeeeeee

[mandymcnabb]

[Marisa]

Hey Mandy!
I totally agree the old folks on the floor were TERRIBLE. NO ONE AROUND ME MOVED! wellI lied there was this one couple who were cool and they were dancing with me during GPASUYF, and after I had to say something so I was like " Isn't it funny how no one else is dancing!?" and tehy replied " YEAH. WTF those ppl in the front row are a**holes, look at those MO FOS, they aren't even moving. and it was true the rail ppl were like statues. how stuck up!

[mandymcnabb]

I wanted to hit everyone that pulled out in a limo, you know their the assholes that didnt move.


Im going to be front row, I am next time, I will show Coldplay that not all michiganders suck, Wasnt the end of Fix You amazing?
I was blown away.

It was sooo perfect.

[Marisa]

IT was!!! It was !!!!
You will !!! YOU WILL!!!
I know I totally felt bad cuz it was so PATHETIC. These ppl sucked. ANYWAYS, I was bummed I couldnt see Will from where I was.
DId he look great. JOnny however I had a perfect view of. He was gorgeous. I about died when he came onstage in the shirt and had taken off the jacket.
Ps. I am writing out my "experience " right now so it might take a while.

[mandymcnabb]

mmkk..
looking forward to it.

When they played Indy, there were some rich ****s that showed up just before they came onstage and stood just outside the pit along the rail in front of fans that paid good money for 1st row seating. They were drinking wine and I'm sure they had never heard a Coldplay song before in their lives. During Yellow, Jonny went to kick a balloon off the stage and it went hard and hit this rich chick right in the face and she spilled her wine. We stared laughing and poor Jonny, he's so sweet, you could tell he felt bad but kind laughed that we all cheered him. The rich ****s left not long after that.

Glad you had a good time and I hope you get on the floor next time.

[mandymcnabb]

thanks. me too..
That Jonny thing is hilarioussssss.

[Nettie]

Excellent. I wish I were there...

That is HILARIOUS. Go Jonny.

Omg Mandy... I'm so glad you had a good time!!! Was this your first time seeing CP?

Omg... we all need to be treated to a Coldplay show, floor seats only. Show them some real lovin'.

[crazyduckette]

JONNY is the BEST!!!!! awwww!!! cool story!

I think Coldplay should treat everybody from Coldplaying to a private concert...just how good would that be.
