Coldplaying


So I have tickets for Coldplay at Wembley for September 2009, I'm really glad I managed to get them because i missed out on the december tour what with being in Australia and all. What I'm not so excited about is the fact tat Jay Z is supporting, luckily i didn't get the date which Girls Aloud are, i seriously would not have coped with that.

I first fell in love with Coldplay the first time they were ever played on radio one by Steve Lamacque and i have battled to love them ever since. Over the years as thier popularity has grown and grown I have fought the urge to disguard them in favour of more unknown 'cool' bands. They keep writing fantastic, anthemic, beautiful songs and I continue to love them despite it all.

I have seen them live three times before and they have never disappointed so I know that know matter who thier poor choice of support are they will be fantastic. In fact last time i saw them live (July 5th 2005) caused me to ring my mum and say something along the lines of "I'm so happy I feel like its my birthday and Christmas and I'm in heaven a little bit all at once". And I really was. It turned out to be the recording of the "fix You' video which further added to my joy. The happiness was short lived but that is a story for another time.

All i can say is me and Coldplay have a lot of history, some good, some awful but i can not wait to see them live again.

And this time I'm taking my mum

It makes me happy that you love a band that many other people love.
Also - I have a handmade birthday card from Chris Martin. Nuff said.
