A Bigger Fan Than Ever, for i Can't Get Them Outta My Head.

Sometime in October last year in 2005, I jumped at the news of Coldplay touring Australia as part of the Twisted Logic Tour 2006. I told the whole world that I was definitely going to watch it no matter what, even before I got hold of the tickets. That was before I found out there was a presale for coldplay official site members. I didn’t get the email notice. Why oh why?? There must’ve been a mistake. But I wasn’t about to give up there and then. So I went online everyday to check what date the general sale would take place. Then came the day when ticketek opened up general sale of tickets online at 9am. The night before, I’d set my alarm to 8.45am. However, knowing me, I kept snoozing the alarm until about 9.20am.
After about 10 mins of selection and clicking at nothing, I realized that I needed a credit card to complete my online purchase. SHIT. Almost immediately, I picked up the phone to call my cousin for help. MY saviour kindly loaned me the card but by then I had already missed the first night in Melbourne. I was about to get cheaper tickets but then a notice came out on that page. Tickets for the second night (2nd July) will go on sale at 10am eastern standard time. Okok. This time I have to make it.
At 10am, after selecting the tickets, I entered the credit card details and my address blahblah. That was it, I clicked on the ‘submit payment’ button. IT WENT THROUGH!

I stared at the screen for a while in disbelief. I am going to watch Coldplay, LIVE. And front row tickets. GA (general admission) gold tickets. I was literally air waving those tickets in my room. My fingers were still a bit shaky from the excitement. I couldn’t go back to sleep.

Before I knew it, I received an email from ticketek:

Fast forward to:
8 months later.

One morning after the concert, I still find it hard to contain the palpable wave of excitement im feeling. The elevating vocals of Chris Martin is still ringing in my head (oh well,maybe also because im still playing Coldplayy tracks on my iTunes right now).
The concert last night was a blast. Unbelievably sophisticated lightings, laser and visual effects accompanied the approx. 90 minutes of ultimate musical experience to last a life time. Other highlights included the humongous yellow balloons with gold confetti dropping from the back to the audience (waiting to be popped to sprinkle confetti on all of us) when the crowd pleaser ‘yellow’ was sung; poignant ballads like ‘the scientist’ and ‘trouble’ were performed with utter passion and gusto; not forgetting the heart-pumping, ear drum-bursting beats of ‘politik’ and ‘god put a smile on your face’; the brilliant and easy listening of the acoustics of ‘til kingdom come’ and the tribute to Johnny cash ‘ring of fire’.

huge yellow balloons with gold confetti.

The British quartet kicked off the concert with the haunting melody of ‘square one’ before defying the title of the tour, delving into ‘politik’, taken from the band’s first success story called ‘Parachutes’ (2000).

A tradition of all Coldplay concerts was carried on obviously in this one, with each one of the band members snapping random pictures of the crowd and then throwing the disposable cameras into the crowd for 4 lucky fans.
Chris commented on the corny name of the location, concluding that batman avenue is the coolest place he’s ever performed. Of course, Rod Laver Arena is located on Batman Avenue.

The acoustic part of the concert brought the whole awesome foursome together to the front podium with Will (the drummer) on the keyboards, Guy (the bassist) playing the harmonica while Jonny and Chris rocked the guitar and the vocals in ‘Til Kingdom Come’ and ‘Ring of Fire’, a tribute to the late Johnny Cash.

Following that was the wonderful medley of the awesome tracks 'Clocks' and 'Talk':
the piano-playing Chris Martin rocked his chair front and back in enthusiasm which added dramatic and entertaining effects to their live rendition of 'Clocks'; the visuals and laser were also amazingly executed, enough to make the audience feel like part of a Coldplay music video. Then the band strummed out the track,'Talk', where Chris's signature hand-in-the-air stagger dance sent the crowd into a ballistic and deafening roar of excitement.
I swear i've never felt closer to an MTV music awards experience than this. previously it'd just been in front of my tv,obviously.

right out of a music video.i swear.

The band then retreated backstage, what?? Its over? They haven't performed ‘Fixed You’ yet!!
The lights came up.the crowd stayed on.
ENCORE ENCORE! The crowd chanted...

The lights dimmed once again...sending the crowd to exhilaration and anticipation for the band's return onto the stage.

"We wouldn't have heard of Melbourne without Kylie," Chris said.
And they started rocking the opening verse: ‘lalalalalalalalala...’lalalalalalalala...'
The whole free standing crowd (including moi and sister) clapped and sung along to ‘I cant getcha outta my head, boy yer more than a blahblahblah...’
(uh hem,chris did mention loadsa times that the crowd singing was fantastic).

The second song during the encore ,'In My Place',begun with a mellow start before Chris sprinted right to the back rows of the 15,000 people crowd to acknowledge and mingle with the fans that have felt left out the whole time at the extreme back.

The 4-man acapella, gibson-brothers-inspired ending verse of ‘Fix You’ closed the performance in a perfect mood.
After arms-over-one-another's-shoulders long and sincere bows displaying their humbleness and gratitude, the band retreated backstage. The crowd left pleased, evacuating the arena with the songs replaying in their heads and on their lips, still itching for more.
8 month wait worth the 90 minute spectacular show?u must be joking for asking.the people on the forums would agree.

sydney 29th June:
Lead singer Chris Martin of Coldplay sang in support of Australia during a concert by slamming Italy whom Australia played against in the World Cup.

Martin yelled out to the crowds during the show in Australia saying, ‘We f**king hate spaghetti anyway!’ contactmusic.com reported.

He continued his rant by changing the words to the song ‘God Put a Smile Upon Your Face’ to ‘God give me style and give me grace, who needs a penalty in any case?’

Australia lost to Italy by one goal through a penalty.
