It was fucking amazing cabrones! I have three butterfliea and my Leftrightleftright. Bat for lashes was excellent! And I did not stop singing nor pseudo-jumping (If I had jumped well my knees would have broken)
I was in B near to the acoustic stag. Haha the crowd was amazing they were saying so many stupid things I laughed a lot... and lol some girls were about to fight because one of them dropped some beer accidentaly on her arm, and the other girl grabbed the beer and threw it ALL to her head haha that was so funny, and in some songs they were throwing beer and I was like wtf this is not a soccer game. I arrived at 8:00 pm and got a decent spot.

Yesterday concert's was great although i was a little bit away from the stage... And I was one of the lucky persons that met them outside the four seasons!!! I got all my CD's with their signatures!!! It was great!!! and Guy is the cutest man ever!!! I will give details tomorrow because I'm in the queue for today's concert and just came to my house to rest a little bit (I live 5 blocks away from foro sol)

OMG I was so close to them I can't believe it and man! I didnt think people would go this crazy in a coldplay concert. I ended up a little far from where I was at first but afterwards I was the crazy one hehe I jumped a lot, sometimes I felt I was the most exited person there

Debs got a shout out from Chrissy during Politik. She was excited!

Almost 2 years ago, VIva la Vida or Death and All His Friends came out to light. I was excited, eager to listen to the new album of my beloved band. I loved it and listened to it endlessly during some months. However, my tastes have changed. My favourite bands nowadays are Radiohead and SIgur Rós, and I can't get enough of baroque and classical music. Thus you may begin to consider me a picky and hard-to-please guy. What would my expectations for a coldplay conert be then? I knew the lyrics, the chords and every single note by heart of must of coldplay songs. I also knew what songs would probably be played in the concert and what kind of effects would they use. The dreamy lasers on clocks and the butterflies on Lovers in Japan. Heck I could even tell what they'd probably be dressing. I knew what I was going to face, like knowing my spot was not going to be good at all and that I'd become tire soon of moving between the crowd in the uncomfy stadium. From this point you might be thinking that I'm a pretentious pesisimist, but I'm not; fortunately I can say that this was a once in a life time experience. I just could not help but smile and sing during the entire concert. Chris' voice was not perfect, he missed some notes and seemed a little bit tired, and, as the classical geek that I'm turning, although they played the song flawlessly, I'd laugh at their musical skills. They really did not bring something new and fresh, or music incredibly sublime and breathtaking, but I enjoyed the show as hell. They were instead a fugue of fun and devotion, Chris' imperfect voice is rather touching and honest, like inviting you to join him in his fun of singing while the sound of their instruments quivered in your heart. The setlist, the setting you all know it, and looks rather simple, but what you may not understand (neither I), is how much fun you have there. I was not roaming in my mind during the night like almost all of the time nor my imagination travelling to somewhere else. I was just happy and satisfied, forgot about everything for those two hours because I did n't need to, I was just watching the lights, the guys enjoying the night, and singing a lot. Yes, I did not stop singing the whole show to the catchy, popish but effective and moving songs. Thank you so much coldplay. THank you so much.

Q. So did Anchorman find out what was the song which were singing Mexico fans? I'm so curious too!!
The Oracle replies:
It was Roadie #42 who was wondering about it and I have informed him that the audience was singing Cielito Lindo - a popular song in Mexico.
