What do you wear to a Coldplay Concert - Girly question I know

Christa42 · 19-10-2008, 09:50 PM

What does everyone wear? handmade t-shirts, Concert Shirts, Tanks, jeans, etc. Do you get dressed up? Discuss!

Collee · 19-10-2008, 09:54 PM

I saw a little bit of everyting in Boston in August, home made tees, concert tees, lots of jeans. Again, Boston is not known as a fashon Mecca, lol.
Just remember to keep the footwear comfy cause if you are on the floor you'll be standing and dancing around the whole time. And if you are up in the balcony it's a damn steep climb.

depends how i feel on the day; whether its indoor or outdoor; what time of year it is; and who i'm going with

butterfliesinjapan · 19-10-2008, 10:08 PM

I wear something sexy so I can seduce Chris!

Just Kidding! No I never been to their concert but I'm hoping to in the future and I would wear a Coldplay tee shirt, jeans, and like Collee mentioned, comfortable footwear.

I think I want to say the same thing.

RedGirl76 · 19-10-2008, 10:46 PM

I've never really thought about it before (I've seen them four times), but seeing as they are making the effort to dress up, I feel I should too!

I bought some of those bracelets, and I've seen a jacket that is quite Viva-ish...

Ooooooh! That's what I thought too!!!!
well, obviously don't wear anything skimpy or ballroom dress-like because it might get roughed up by the crowd.

I made a shirt for their 1st Boston concert and am going to wear it again for this upcoming one

I wear Jeans because they're comfy and converse shoes, which ROCK!

Basically anything comfy and Coldplay-related

Oh and to Collee, I actually saw a lot of people with dressy clothes (!) and many that were not Coldplay-related

Hopefully there will be more Coldplay attire this time

talkingonsquareone89 · 20-10-2008, 02:20 AM

Coldplay concerts are the only 'rock' gigs that you can get away with dressing up nicely!

so yeah, go for it! but if that's not you're style, then a simple casual jeans and t-shirt will do just fine.

comfy shoes are helpful, but it's not too much of a problem. i got away with wearing sandals to the LA concert cause the show's all seated (and not like Coldplay does a general admission "PIT" for their gigs, as far as most are aware of

).

palicorrei · 20-10-2008, 03:24 AM

What about the unfortunate bunch that don't own any wearable Coldplay merch yet?

Would a Radiohead shirt do until you can buy a tour shirt? (Reason I specified is that I would prefer not to get jumped if there's a conflict)

CookyMnstr · 20-10-2008, 06:02 AM

People DO NOT get jumped at Coldplay concerts LOL. Or "roughed up." Unless you get in the way of some crazy fan girl and a member of the band

.....................

.

Most people are just like you and me, some hardcore fans, others casual, but no one is out to start trouble. Unless you mean "Trouble," as there could be some singing as we're all walking out of the venue. Coldplay brings out warm friendly vibe

.

Comfy shoes are a definite must for all fans who will dance and jump around, ie everyone here! If you're one of those "daddy's a bigshot who got these free seats from his company," or, "it just sounds cool to say I went to see Coldplay," than you wear stilletos, text the whole time, yawn, and then complain your feet hurt at the end of the night. I HATE those people...taking seats that real fans could be occupying.

Some people wear Coldplay tees, either just bought from this tour, or from previous tours, others wear shirts from other bands, others just regular clothes, others wear cute tops...don't worry about it, people didn't pay to see you anyway

, as long as you're comfortable it'll be fine.

strawberryfields · 20-10-2008, 06:15 AM

Unless you have special Coldplay related gear in mind, just wear something comfortable.

You're obviously gonna be moving around a lot, and with all those people... it's going to get hot in there, so you definitely want to be comfy. Just jeans and a t-shirt (preferably a Coldplay t-shirt

) is what I'd recommend.

Big Fat Noises · 20-10-2008, 07:05 PM

Well me and my three coldplay loving mates wear shirts an white ties with seperate letters of 'VIVA' spelt out on them... (see coldplay live at the BBC, front centre

)

simple, but oh so wonderfully effective!

Christa42 · 20-10-2008, 07:51 PM

I saw that! awesome! i have no idea, boots with sturdy heels, i am short

Was that you?!

Haha, cool.

You indeed got some attention.

echolot · 20-10-2008, 08:02 PM

Well, the one time I saw them live I didn't thought about what I was going to wear and just wore something comfortable.. then I found myself wearing a T-Shirt with a Strawberry on it. Reminded me of Strawberry Swing

I think the next time I'll wear my Coldplay T-Shirt. I just

it
