This night was number one!!

So as all my blog followers know...I won tickets to see coldplay...and it was the best concert I have ever been too...but that's not all!!! Let me tell you why it was the greatest...



First, I don't know if I mentioned this before, but we won 4 different tickets. Laura was caller 10 twice...I think it's because she is more righteous then me, because really that is statistically impossible. So that means that Laura, Chelsea (one of her best friends), Catherine (one of my best friends and eternal roommate, we're working on our sixth year together) and myself got to go.

This is the D.J. for the radio station that we won tickets from.

So it went down like this. We got to go to the sound check which was a few hours before the concert. It had been advertised that we would be able to go back stage, meet the band, take pictures and get things autographed...however, all we got to do was watch the sound check, and then the band came down and shook our hands and we all had a group picture...no autographs and no individual pictures. That's okay though because I stood by Chris Martin in the picture and leaned in...it was the best.

So then we had almost 2 hours to kill before the actual concert, so we went to the mall next door and got some deep-fried Chinese food which is always an excellent idea. We went back and bought some concert paraphernalia and went to our free seats, which were WAY up in nose bleed...that was okay because they were free. THEN...

we're sitting there in our upper-bowl nose-bleed seats, and this random guy come up to us and says in a very authoritative tone
"um, excuse me, I'm with the tour...can I please see your tickets?"
us: "um yeah, that's fine"
him: "yeah, could you come with me?"
us: "uh, okay"

so we walk to the portal entrance...
him: "so did you guys win these tickets or something?"
me: "yeah I listened at my work all day, probably gonna get fired"
him: "ah."
.....
me: "I'm sorry, is there a problem with our tickets?"
him: "well, yeah....they're just really bad seats..."
us: " We agree!!"....at this point I think we knew that only good could come from this
him: "sooo, are you guys big fans?"
us: "yeeeeeess..."
him: "are you guys screamers?"
us: "YEEEEEEESS!"
him: "we want to move you to the floor"

AND THERE WAS MUCH REJOICING

Seriously we were screaming for like 5 minutes and we kept hugging him and his buddy and we made them take a picture with us...




So basically we were moved to pretty much the front and the band sweat on us and it was awesome. During one song millions of paper butterflies came out of the ceiling and it was unreal. Plus they are just amazing live and really re-vamped a lot of their songs, had crazy lights, and were just amazing performers...

Slightly demonic looking...but we were trying to get a picture of me with the butterflies

I'm still on a concert high....God Bless America...also the UK...because that's where they're from.

Sorry all of the pictures are blurry!! I'll try to get better quality ones.
