Coldplay Concert

We had a great time at the Coldplay concert! Howling Bells started off the concert, with the amazing Snow Patrol following them, and then of course...COLDPLAY! Here are some pictures from the concert.

The New Orleans Arena


Howling Bells


Snow Patrol: They were great!


Before Coldplay got on the stage these four guys climbed up this tiny rope latter and then had to crawl across the metal to lower themselves in these chairs. In the picture below you can see the one guy climbing towards his chair. There were two of them on each side and they were so high in the air. They stayed up their for the entire Coldplay performance.


Also while they were getting the stage ready for Coldplay a worker that was sweeping the stage started to break dance to the music and one of the spotlights was on him. He was quite good!


COLDPLAY: The picture behind them was really pretty.


For part of the show they had these lasers shining out into the audience.


A better view of the gorgeous picture behind the band.


Chris Martin came out on the end of the stage! He was jumping and running around the whole concert without very many breaks.



During the song Yellow they threw all of these huge yellow balloons out over the audience and when they popped they flung yellow confetti everywhere.


They had these huge balls that lowered down from the ceiling and had pictures on them. At some points during the concert, they were live video of the group members singing.


Chris Martin playing the piano for us.


They had a mini band set-up on our side of the stage and they performed a few songs over there.


Coldplay also crossed the audience and went into the back of the audience and performed there. It was great. Will (the drummer) played the guitar for a few songs and Chris also played the harmonica. It was a great performance!

During Lovers in Japan the crepe paper butterflies came drifting down from the ceiling just like in their music video!


And that is why my Coldplay tee shirt has butterflies all over it. Damien and I with our Coldplay tee shirts on!
