Coldplay was back in Madrid!


Hello, we know we have been a little bit disappeared lately, sorry for that.
But today I'm here to talk you about the last show we have attended: Coldplay at Estadio Vicente Calderón, Madrid. Forming part of their Mylo Xyloto tour, which started also in Madrid last October.
Coldplay are known for holding the most spectacular shows, we know why now.
In the first place, when the gates opened and we got into the stadium, we were given some wristbands which were supposed to shine when the show started.
Then we ran and we get front row sits, or at least something like that. Because some people had paid lots of money for a special ticket and they had a space reserved, we thought that space was going to be little, but it was pretty big, so we were way too far from the stage.
Anyway the first thing we did was forgive that and enjoy the show.
During the permorfance of the first guest: Rita Ora, the weather was not too nice and it rained heavily, but with the second one: Marina and the diamonds, it stopped just on time. All the crowd was very worried afraid of the rain or the show being cancelled.


And finally, it was turn for Coldplay to show up! The stage was all the way decorated with paintings, screens and lots of colors, fluorescent colors (something like the Charlie Brown video).
Then it started and I was so much amazed that I can't describe how it was, I think you have to attend to get it right.
All I can say is that this show has been the most spectacular, amazeballs and extremely awesome one i have ever seen. Seriously, the fireworks, and all the details were beautiful. Specially the effect of the wristbands which shined with some songs. Look at this:

The setlist:
Mylo Xiloto
Hurts like heaven
In my place
Major Minus
Lovers in Japan
The scientist
Yellow
Violet hill
God put a smile up on your face
Princess of China
Up in flames
Warning sign
Don't let it break your heart
Viva la vida
Charlie Brown
Paradise
Us against the world
Speed of sound
Clocks
Fix you
Every teardrop is a waterfall

As you see it included their classics with their most famous hits from their last album: Mylo Xyloto. And in between Chris Martin talked in Spanish and told us to jump or scream.
The organization was perfect, no problems and no fights so that we were surrounded by that kind of bliss and peace sensation. All very beautiful and very funny.
Here you have a video:

Tell me it isn't exciting.
Hope you enjoy this post as much as i enjoyed the show.
