Although I had seen many Coldplay performances on TV, mainly at various outdoor festivals, this was the first time I had ever been to see them live. And based on this performance, I can confirm that they certainly know how to deliver the authentic stadium experience. An amazing stage set with luminous graffiti, an array of dazzling lighting effects and Coldplay's usual blitz of coloured confetti, balloons, etc. However, the stand-out moment was when the main lights went out and suddenly we, the crowd, were the main attraction as our wrist bands were simultaneously lit up, as if by magic, and proceeded to pulse in time with the music.
Oh, and the music was pretty good too!
